Kyontawa

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Non-notable fictional subject. This is an extensive, almost entirely in-universe article about a fictional people and language who appear only in a short film, Food for the Gods, and its as yet unfinished sequels. Food for the Gods itself seems to be of only marginal notability; the elements of its fictional universe are definitely not. While I can find some coverage of the film in independent reliable sources, I can't find any coverage whatsoever of the 'Kyontawa'. Robofish (talk) 21:32, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or userfy. Seems to be WP:OR. Pburka (talk) 22:34, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comments. This should not be merged, as there are no reliable sources. The entire article appears to be original research. Redirecting to the film is also problematic since Kyontawa, Burma is the more obvious redirect. Instead of redirecting a dab page could be created. Pburka (talk) 02:19, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and Redirect to the film article Food for the Gods where the fictional element has its foundation and context. As the nominator notes, the film has coverage in multiple independent secondary sources... the fictional Kyontawa don't. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 23:59, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Merge (which implies redirect) to the film per the above. Jclemens (talk) 00:37, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: The fictional language/tribe does not meet the general notability guideline as a stand-alone subject. I agree with Pburka's comment that this article should not be merged since there is nothing of value references with reliable sources, it is mostly original research by synthesis and there is a real location that should have this redirect instead of this non-notable concept.
