 * Keep: Sindhis are an ethnic group originally from Sindh, Pakistan and now settled in mostly in India. Their festivals are different from Hindu festivals in general.--Redtigerxyz (talk) 10:31, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Obviously needs sources, but the topic is equally obviously notable, in my opinion. Should be moved to Sindhi festivals. Good Ol’factory (talk) 03:20, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
 * The move is done.--Redtigerxyz (talk) 14:24, 17 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment One of my concerns is that, to my knowledge, the Sindhi people do not follow any one religion but are a community that includeds Muslems and Hindus. Whose festivals are these, specifically? There should be some sourcing for a particular group of Sindhi festivals, but as to which ones should be included, I am not sure. But as there are Muslem Sindhis, the subject of this article remains unclear and because of this so does its notability. Thanks. Ism schism (talk) 00:51, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Yipe! If it's kept, it's in very dire need of an extreme rewrite (I added an and stopped at just a handful of problems (if this is indeed a list of Sindhi festivals, it should be renamed to List of Shindhi Festivals per Wikipedia naming guidelines). If it can be verified using reliable sources (and one would think they would be rather easily found in a few Asian sites), then radically rewritten (in addition to what's on the tag, it's also written in the mode of a magazine or a personal essay), and then renamed, it would be worth keeping. So... conditional keep. B.Wind (talk) 01:20, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
