 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was   delete. No strong argument for keeping, and the delete arguments include concerns about notability, WP:CRYSTAL, and indeed verifiability given some of the conflicting information. No prejudice against recreation if the film is released in some fashion and more info becomes available. --Bigtimepeace | talk | contribs 05:50, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Ullam

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Unable to find multiple third party reliable sources that confirm this film meets WP:NF or even WP:GNG. I was able to find an IMDb entry for Ullam but the information in IMDb differs greatly from what is described in the article, creating doubt that this is the same film. This reference provided is from a 2008 article and the soundtrack was supposedly released in 2004; the film in the IMDb link is claimed to have been released in 2005. I'm not sure if several films are being mistaken for one another or if this film is one of those films in perennial production that is having a hard time getting wrapped up but I don't think it qualifies for its own article at this time. I'll gladly withdraw my nomination if proper sources can be found to show notability. Big Bird (talk • contribs) 20:43, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

 * I'm finding lots of sources, that upon further review always refer to another film. With the soundtrack being released six years ago, this does sound like a perennial production delay, but, again, I can't find anything that confirms that! Bradjamesbrown (talk) 21:10, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak weak keep per edging toward the coverage allowed in WP:CRYSTAL... specially with a soundtrack pre-released in 2004 to garner funding . The one film listed on IMDB as released in 2005 is a Malayam film by that same name. Sadly, IMDB most definitely lacks coverage of many Tamil films, and searches are quite often confused because of the Indian penchant for releasing so many films with similar titles and in several differnt languages. This will need input from the few editors familiar with that area. Screen India,  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 00:03, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment if deleted, redirect to Teller-Ullam as it is likely to be a reference to the nuclear bomb. 76.66.197.17 (talk) 05:55, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak delete: usually (but not always), Tamil films that get stuck without release for such a long period (years in this case), don't get released. And in most cases this means the film has been a subject of financial dispute or it ran out of funds to be finished. And when some of them do come out, they go direct to satellite broadcast without theatrical release. The article can wait till the film comes out.--Sodabottle (talk) 08:18, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
