Yevado Okadu

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Classic example of why films that have not yet begun production should NOT have their own article. Evidently, the primary actor has walked out, at least temporarily, on compensation issues and production is on an indefinite hiatus. Too early for this article and fails WP:NFILMS. Perhaps if/when production resumes and principle photography is completed, then may be the time to consider starting an article. Clearly now is NOT the time.

 * Temporary redirect under WP:ATD to writer/director Venu Sri Ram. The topic of his planned film certainly has coverage to meet inclusion criteria, and we can simply undo the redirect when we have confirmation of the start of filming.  Schmidt,  Michael Q. 22:15, 15 February 2016 (UTC)


 * Comment I would just note that for films, coverage is not the complete prequisite for inclusion. Per WP:NFF:


 * Quote Films that have not been confirmed by reliable sources to have commenced principal photography should not have their own articles, as budget issues, scripting issues and casting issues can interfere with a project well ahead of its intended filming date. The assumption should also not be made that because a film is likely to be a high-profile release it will be immune to setbacks—there is no "sure thing" production. Until the start of principal photography, information on the film might be included in articles about its subject material, if available. Sources must be used to confirm the start of principal photography after shooting has begun.


 * Continue comment While I would not object to a redirect being left, ideally, this should never have existed at all. We should be discouraging people from racing to Wikipedia to create an article the instant a new film is announced, not encouraging them to do so. Safiel (talk) 23:17, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that, but I would be loathe to tell all new and inexperienced editors that they simply cannot contribute articles. I'd point them at applicable guidelines sure, and discuss their contributions if needed, fine. But the way to build is to build. A redirect would have been suitable and we'd have only needed this discussion if it the redirect were then debated.  Schmidt,  Michael Q. 05:24, 21 February 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Either move to draft or delete. Too soon for a Wikipedia page now however we can use the information later on if the film releases.   Mr RD     08:49, 21 February 2016 (UTC)
