The result was keep. No consensus to delete. The cheap shots at the nominator were not necessary. ( non-admin closure) Ron Ritzman ( talk) 00:20, 3 June 2010 (UTC) reply
These are awards which apply only to one state in India. The article has no sources. The text reads largely as personal opinion, in as much as there is any text. Guy ( Help!) 20:03, 27 May 2010 (UTC) reply
Strong Keep - A state in India is not comparable to a state in say America or Canada. India is a federation of ethnic/linguistic states. There at atleast seven major regional language film industries in India of which Bollywood is the biggest and most well known. For the rest of regional language film industries (all huge and release hundreds of films every year), it is the state that is the highest award giver. There is a National film award in India, but it awards only one award in the best film category for every language. Thus State Film Awards are the highest awards for the specific language films. Thus Karnataka's film industry's highest awards are Karnataka State Film Awards. And as Phil Bridger points out Karanataka is a huge state with about 70 million population now. Same is the case for Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Bengali, Marathi, Bhojpuri film industries as well. Hope we can rest the case here and not question the notability of the state awards of all these as well.-- Sodabottle ( talk) 04:24, 28 May 2010 (UTC) reply
Keep - Though the article is currently just a stub, it certainly meets notability criteria and must not be deleted. Shivashree ( talk) 11:13, 28 May 2010 (UTC) reply

Keep I think this guy don't know about anything related to India. First of all I want to know whats the purpose to delete a article which has created just before 1 week or 1 month. A single person can't edit with full details. Please go through the links given in the article. So you can understand the purpose of the article. I think you are not eligible for wiki. Please quit and save our time. And please give me details about higher authorities to complain about you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.198.242.47 ( talk) 13:51, 30 May 2010 (UTC) reply
