Film is unsourced since 11years. NP83 (talk) 02:35, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Film, Algeria, and France. AllyD (talk) 06:55, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: This is one of a number of articles about films selected for the Festival of African Cinema whose information was captured in WP via CC BY-SA under a Wikipedia:WikiAfrica/Share Your Knowledge initiative, but where the original online resources no longer exist. For such initiatives, perhaps clearer source preservation is needed from outset? AllyD (talk) 10:10, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I have added a couple of references showing critical reception of this film. As well as these, the intro to a 2009 festival showing said that "With his second feature (...) Tariq Teguia proves himself to be the most important new director in Algeria" [1]. More recently, the synopsis of a paywalled Journal of African Cinemas article (2016) claims "that Tariq Teguia's 2008 film "Inland" establishes a new frontier for North African cinema with the creation of a unique visual style that moves away from the thematic considerations of national cinema." [2]. Overall, I think there is enough independent coverage for WP:NFILM. AllyD (talk) 10:19, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as two reliable sources reviews have been added to the article and together with the coverage mentioned above WP:GNG is passed so that deletion is unnecessary in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 22:13, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
