Unsourced since 2008. Significant RS coverage not found. The latest AfD (Feb 2017) closed as no consensus for lack of participation; hoping that this discussion can arrive at a consensus. K.e.coffman (talk) 05:22, 30 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No coverage in online reliable sources. Also, I do not find any evidence of this actually being covered in an ancient Thai newspaper from 15 years ago. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 16:12, 30 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Thai newspapers do not keep news article online that long. Thailand's number one newspaper gives 3 pages of matches for news between 2000-2005 [1] while the number 2 newspaper gives only one match for the above date [2]. As mentioned in earlier AfD's, you have to go to National Library to look at paper form of newspaper or microfilm of it to find news article about this TV series. --Lerdsuwa (talk) 14:43, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Rename article should be renamed to Prasuton Manorah (currently a redirect to a different variant of the story) with main emphasis on the folktale (as suggested in the 2nd AfD). The story is notable (see centuries old painting of the story at [3]) and has been adapted to TV series at least 3 times: the one in the article (broadcast in 2000-2001), a newer one in 2016 ([4]), a version in 1988, and likely more (I only recognize those broadcast since my childhood and am not aware of versions before that). --Lerdsuwa (talk) 14:44, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- The target should probably be Phra Suthon Manora, following RTGS, since there's no evidence that the current spelling is used by anyone not referring to the TV soap. I'd prefer that the histories be kept separate, though, and a new article be created from scratch. --Paul_012 (talk) 11:53, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Just merge into a sentence or two at Manohara mentioning the Thai TV adaptations' existence. This series of AfDs is getting unnecessarily repetitive, and no one seems to be interested in creating the Thai folktale article. Can be redirected there when and if it is created. --Paul_012 (talk) 11:53, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment --- the article on the folk tale already exists: Prasuton Manorah. There's nothing to merge since the article under discussion is unsourced. K.e.coffman (talk) 13:52, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, no RS sources and not needed, per nom. Kierzek (talk) 15:56, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
