Tamiliam

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

A company which is not notable under WP:N and WP:CORP. The references used in the article are an article from The Tamiliam (the organization that gave an award to a movie created by the subject), an article from an arguably unreliable source called "TamilNet" (again describes the movie and not the company), an article on IndiaGlitz (an article that has some significant coverage on the only notable movie made by the company), an article on The Daily Star (has a paragraph about the movie but not the company), and an article on an arguable unreliable source called "New Age" (describes the movie and mentions its achievement but not the company). My own news search only produced the IndiaGlitz article and nothing more. The movie is notable but one movie does not make the film production company notable. I should also note that the username of the author is the same as the creator of the company and the movie. The author has also removed a db tag from the article once without an explanation.

 * Delete. Note also the presence of a fairly strong promotional point of view: ...the company is best known for making shortfilms and documentaries which reflects the hidden truths of the ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka. Beside this Tamiliam want to shed light on the daily-life problems faced by the Eelam people living in diaspora.

 * Delete - Has one notable film Vanni Mouse to its credit. While the award it won is enough to keep Tamiliam Subas and the film in wikipedia, the company itself does not pass WP:ORG--Sodabottle (talk) 18:50, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
