Fails film notability guidelines. I am also nominating two similar articles made by the same user for the same reason:
- Agyakoo Gbegbentus (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
- Potato Potahto (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
- Sidechic Gang (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
The fourth of these articles details a film which did receive some award nominations but these awards in themselves are not notable and hence are not enough to satisfy WP:NFILM. Many thanks, SITH (talk) 17:14, 14 January 2019 (UTC)

- Comment There were several more articles similar to these four, very short stubs about a Ghanaian film with scant sources, all by the same editor. In the majority of these cases that I've seen, I was able to find other coverage either in a web search or in a Google Scholar search that indicated that the subject met NFILM. That having been said, I was unable to find such coverage for Tales of Nazir or Agyakoo Gbegbentus, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone better versed in Ghanaian RS could dig something up. signed, Rosguill talk 18:03, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
- @Rosguill: I did a pretty thorough (albeit machine translated) source search for all of them before submitting the AfDs and there wasn't anything that satisfied WP:NFILM. SITH (talk) 21:53, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
- I wasn't trying to cast aspersions, just pointing out that the set of similar articles is larger than the ones nominated here. signed, Rosguill talk 22:14, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per nom and my own inability to find any RS coverage. signed, Rosguill talk 22:21, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep Potato Potahto as that one has reliable sources coverage such as a full review by The Pulse Nigeria referenced in the article. Also Keep Sidechic Gang as it has received four nominations in a notable awards of African Movie Academy Awards. Am neutral about the other two films, thanks Atlantic306 (talk) 20:50, 19 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. The film meets the third criterion of WP:NFO. It was nominated in several categories at the 2018 AMAA; Actress Joke Silva actually won an award for her portrayal in the film. The movie premiered at the Cannes Film Festival and the Durban International Film Festival. Versace1608 Wanna Talk?
- Comment I'm unsure how to vote as this time as it appears that Potato Potahto is notable, while notability concerns remain for Tales of Nazir and Agyakoo Gbegbentussigned, Rosguill talk 02:38, 20 January 2019 (UTC)

- Comment. My previous keep !vote was solely about the movie Potato Potahto. Agyakoo Gbegbentus isn't a notable film; A Google search of the film doesn't show it being discussed in reliable sources. Sidechic Gang on the other hand appears to be semi-notable; although the film didn't receive reliable reviews, it was nominated for several awards at the 2018 AMAA.

- Note to closer: I have a feeling this is going on (or off) the same rails as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Axe of Vengeance. Both were crappy bundlings, for which I apologise. I see that the community prefers more separate AfDs as opposed to fewer tenuously linked bundles nominations. If you close it as trainwreck, please ping me so I can renominate the appropriate ones per the above consensus. Thanks, SITH (talk) 23:11, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
