Turned the article title into a film title rather than a foreign term[edit]

The article was about the term Mankurt which not at all frequently used in English and does not appear in any dictionary that I have checked. We have a policy against creating articles that use English Neologisms see WP:NOTNEO.

As there is a film with this title, which is a legitimate title for an article, I have rewritten the lead so that the article becomes one about a film rather than the word. -- PBS (talk) 22:39, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nice job. The neologism can be then handled in the novel article (is at all). I have done more to the article to make it about the 1990 film. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 20:25, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
