Santali cinema

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Appears to be too much of an essay. I originally PROD'd it for this reason, and it was de-PROD'd without explanation by the author. See also Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Bapi Murmu. Jackmcbarn (talk) 15:31, 1 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and continue improvements. No article on it yet, but we do have the Academy of Santali Cinema and Art (RASCA).[1] The topic of "Santali cinema" is covered in enough independent sources to meet WP:GNG. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 21:20, 1 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Courcelles 19:59, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Aside from MichaelQSchmidt's clear case above, "appears to be too mcuh of an essay" is not a reason to delete. It's a reason for cleanup, and AfD is not for that. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 14:52, 16 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
