[edit] Yaaravan Nalam

Yaaravan Nalam (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

• I've searched the entire net for hours and I have not come across ANY article that provides mention of this film. Also note that all these articles provide the same trivia as Hello Zindagi, Aaval and Ivan Yaaro, that is that these so called "films" are being shot at a budget of Rs. 30 million and these articles have been created on the same day. These articles have also been created in a mere gap of 13 minutes by the same person, which is bound to raise suspicion. I suspect the article has been purposely created - pure fancruft. Therefore, I propose this article be deleted because Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. It also fails WP:V. -- Visual planet 12:32, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - even if it's verifiable, it's non-notable if it hasn't even been released. johnpseudo 16:21, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
• Definite Keep: I have enclosed information by a letter from Madhavan about his projects. This is a e-mail I received from Mr Madhavan himself, a friend of mine. He has confirmed these films. Proof is here. [1] Prince Godfather 16:40, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

• Definite Delete : I'm sorry if I'm being rude but this is utter nonsense. Obviously User:Prince Godfather mistakes us for fools. Firstly, that could have been User:Prince Godfather faking as the actor himself, heck, it could have been anyone. And how in the world would you expect me to believe that the letter that you have brought up has been written by Madhavan himself? The so called proof User:Prince Godfather has provided links to a FANSITE. Don't you think Madhavan has better work to do than to come to Wikipedia and watch us nominating his articles for deletion and then logging on to that fanclub site and emailing User:Prince Godfather with a letter confirming these films?. And why would "he" even provide us with his email address? So that his fans can mob him with fan mails? Sorry, but i'm definitely not buying it! Please provide a more believablebetter reason. You can bring this issue to anyone on Wikipedia and I am sure they would think the same. -- Visual planet 18:09, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Article makes no attempt at establishing notability and a google search turns up zilch. The above confirmation letter, regardless if it is actually from Madhavan, adds nothing substantial to this discussion to establish the film's notability. Feel free to bring the article back once the film has actually been released with some independent links attesting to its notoriety. As an aside, is it possible that Mr Madhavan was once a civil servant in Nigeria? JGardner 21:41, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as a definite hoax, per the wonderfully hilarious "email" that the film star sent to the article's auther after reading a Wikipedia AfD. Classic. Wavy G 23:49, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete What's up with all these mildly amusing hoax AfDs today? --The Way 07:17, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

• I warned you guys: Wikipedia is now completely full of any possible original content, and the only thing left to submit is poorly conceived hoaxes like this. Wavy G 08:11, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
