In the high attention area

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

No assertion or evidence of notability substantiated by citations to reliable third-party sources. Might be more appropriate to migrate to ru.wiki. --EEMIV (talk) 12:53, 12 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

IMDB is not a reliable source? No futher questions. -- SerdechnyG (talk) 13:38, 12 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Indeed it isn't, as it is a wiki type of database. See WP:RS linked above. --Crusio (talk) 13:44, 12 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

~~Delete~~ Keep per below. (GregJackP (talk) 14:51, 12 March 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Delete Unnotable film with no significant coverage in reliable, third-party sources. Being listed in directory sites like IMDB and Allmovie does not confer notability, and IMDB is user-edited. Film fails WP:NF and WP:N. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 23:38, 12 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Notable film. 5th place in Soviet box office in 1977. DonaldDuck (talk) 02:18, 13 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This source, as well as providing significant coverage, confirms that the film passes WP:NF criterion 2 by being screened at a festival in 2008. There are plenty more sources found by this search. Phil Bridger (talk) 11:43, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Judging by this search it would appear that the usual English translation of the title is In the Zone of Special Attention, so a move may be in order. Phil Bridger (talk) 11:49, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Per the sources found by Phil to meet WP:NF. The page will have to be moved, even if the title stays the same, due to caps. Lugnuts (talk) 19:31, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per ratinale of User:Phil Bridger. Notability, even if in non-English souces and in a non-English country are good enough for en.Wikipedia. And I do agree about a possible name move, as translations to English from Russian are sometimes difficult. Input from Russian language Wikipedians would be helpful.

Keep Soviet films are of interest. They do not get as great a mention in Western media as US films - but that is not a reason for an international encyclopaedia to ignore them. Clearly the article needs more citations - but then so do a lot of article son Wikipedia.--Toddy1 (talk) 22:20, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
