non-notable organization - PROD declined. Standard searches do not reveal enough significant coverage in independent reliable sources. -- 1Wiki8Q5G7FviTHBac3dx8HhdNYwDVstR (talk) 00:51, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

• Delete - I agree that it seems like notability isn't really established. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 01:20, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

• Delete - I endorsed the PROD as failing WP:GNG. sovereign°sentinel (contribs) 03:10, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

• No Not Delete Important cultural organisation for women in film in Sweden and an international contact center for women in film globally in the 1980's. Should be culturally preserved. Women's history should not be erased. Filmartiste 05:48, 11 September 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mjsullus (talk • contribs) 05:44, 11 September 2015
• Comment: I have deleted the following commentary which had been added to the main article[1], but it could be regarded as a misplaced contribution to this AfD debate: "In September 2015, this entry in Wikipedia is being debated about being deleted by a few individuals who if this does happen, do not think it is important to preserve the history of women in film which has been historically erased. The criteria for erasure is that the group can't be found in mechanical "search" engines, robots. ". AllyD (talk) 07:19, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
  • Comment: also note, the same user has left a message on this AFDs talk page. -- 1Wiki8Q5G7FviTHBac3dx8HhdNYwDVstR (talk) 08:02, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
• Comment - If that kind of extremely disruptive behavior happens again, I think going to administrators to give notice would be justified. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 08:32, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
• Comment yes that was a misplaced contribution to the AfD debate. It is not always easy to navigate Wikipedia and where the right things should go.

• Comment the entry now does have references to important historical organizations and women from this time and has been cross-referenced. The women's film movement in Sweden was important and wold recognized. Freja Film was part of this. Contributions for women in film culture attracted global attention. UNESCO organized a conference in 1981 for this purpose- International Feminist Film and Video Conference in Amsterdam, and Freja Film was designated the world contact organisation.

• Neutral for now. Certainly the article is poorly written per MOS:, but if notability through translated non-English coverage can be established, we have a topic that could be savable, as notable even if only to Sweden, is enough for en.Wikipedia.

• Comment The organisation was part of an international movement of women in film. Research about how to improve this was established by a program in UNESCO in 1980. Cinemien, (Netherlands), a feminist film collective organized a conference during UN Women's Year 1980 that is well documented - the First international feminist film and video conference in Amsterdam, (1981) which is also well documented. This is the Swedish organisation that was working as other organisations like Cinemein for creating accessible media and film for women in their country. At the conference, Freja Film was designated Filmartiste 08:10, 12 September 2015 (UTC) the international contact group for the 1981 conference funded by UNESCO. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mjsullus (talk • contribs)

• Delete searches on engines turned up very little. A few brief mentions on Books, absolutely nothing on News, Highbeam, JSTOR or Scholar. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 15:02, 19 September 2015 (UTC)
