No evidence of notability. Apart from the News18 reference, none of the sources provided appear to be reliable. A check before nomination didn't turn up anything else either. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 20:26, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

I noticed that the article for "Guardian Angel (Malayalam Film)" has been nominated for deletion. I believe this article should be kept and here are my reasons:

1. **Upcoming Film**: "Guardian Angel" is an upcoming Malayalam film. As it is yet to be released, references and sources about the film might be limited at this point. However, all available sources have been properly cited in the article.

2. **New Talents**: The film introduces new talents to the industry, which is noteworthy. It provides a platform for new actors and crew members, contributing to the diversity and growth of Malayalam cinema.

3. **Reliable Sources**: Despite being an upcoming film with new actors, the article is backed by all available reliable sources, including news articles and official announcements. These sources provide verifiable information about the film's production, cast, and release. I have recently added more sources to further strengthen the article's credibility. Some of these sources are in Malayalam, reflecting the film's cultural and linguistic context.

4. **Content**: The article provides comprehensive information about the film, including details about the plot, cast, production, and promotional events. This information is valuable to readers interested in Malayalam cinema.

I understand the concerns raised in the nomination, and I am committed to addressing them. I have already made some edits to improve the article and will continue to do so. I believe that with further improvements, this article can meet Wikipedia's standards for inclusion.

Thank you for considering my viewpoint.

Best,

Delete per WP:NFF (no indication of pre production stage); almost no reliable source found (at least in English). Toadette ^{(Merry Christmas, and a happy new year)} 07:06, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Some of these references are in Malayalam, reflecting the film's cultural and linguistic context.

Comment: While I appreciate the effort that Littleframes has put into adding additional sources, I have to reaffirm that my nomination statement still applies. Aside from the News18 sources, no others appear to be reliable; they especially fail many of the points listed at the guideline on news sources. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 04:38, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Daniel (talk) 22:54, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Per ToadetteEdit and the criteria of WP:NFF. @ Littleframes, it is possibly too soon. New actors would be covered in Wikipedia:NACTOR. An alternate to deletion would be to place as a draft. -- Otr500 (talk) 15:41, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment TechnoSquirrel69, would you be okay with draftifying this article until the film is released? Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 02:51, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Liz: No objections! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 03:02, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
