Non notable awards ceremony that has nothing whatsoever to do with North America. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NORG. A search for North American Film Awards brings up a significant number of hits to another dubious awards organisation. Domdeparis ( talk) 10:56, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

- Comment: It looks like the ceremony is only named after NA because the company running it operate in NA and the awards are held here. Other than that, it does seem to have received some coverage in India newspapers and film related websites that are considered RS on here. One of the difficult things with awards ceremonies is that they don't really get the type of coverage that major awards like the Oscars do, where the ceremony will get coverage that details its history and so on - most of the time we have to judge notability based on how many times its results are reported and by whom. So far it looks like this might be notable, but the reporting is fairly slim. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 14:51, 21 February 2017 (UTC)

- Keep - Substantial coverage in International Business Times and Times of India. note: I was asked by the article creator to weigh in here.. Mark Schierbecker ( talk) 19:36, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
- Weak keep. It's good to have an award ceremony for emerging market films. Why not allow it to have a place in Wikipedia. The article doesn't seem particularly promotional. Of note, it's non-scalable to list every awardee every year. The page will rapidly become unusable. Perhaps the article creator could find a briefer way of describing annual events.
