Contested merger

[edit]

@Makhamakhi, JoJo Anthrax, L3X1, Acebulf, Atlantic306, RoySmith, and Michig: I would like to contest this merger on the basis that the nom's rationale were incorrect. Makhamakhi claimed that all the awards were non-notable, while they have received extensive media coverage and have Wikipedia articles. Further, their rationale mentions that the film has won only 7 awards, which is incorrect; the film received 33 awards for over 69 nominations, all of which are sourced in the awards list. Also, there are other categories too that have Wikipedia articles, it just wasn't linked in the awards list. The size of the parent article is quite large to warrant a fork. Further, many other Indian award lists that have featured status have lesser number of awards and smaller parent articles, a case of WP:OSE. Request your participation here.

Despite the large size of the film articles mentioned above, they haven't received as many awards to warrant a WP:SPLIT. I repeat, this film has received 33 awards from over 69 nominations, while the highest I can count among those articles is 34 nominations. This award list satisfies the criteria for a fork. The average Wikipedia reader is an English speaker; it doesn't mean we should give precedence to English topics per WP:SYSTEMICBIAS. I have demonstrated that there is no differential treatment in my rationale; in fact, merging this article is in itself differential treatment.

Also, there are award lists on English-language films with lesser number of awards, like Deadpool. This article has a prose of 67 KB, while the awards article has a prose of 17 KB, which gives a total of 84 KB; this puts it between Almost certainly should be divided and Probably should be divided per WP:SPLIT. I intend to further expand the parent article with an analysis section, which will take the size even further. King Prithviraj II (talk) 20:04, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Box office sources

[edit]

Sarvagya 2003 Dubey removed the BOI source, and replaced it with | gross = {{INR}}235.6 crore<ref>https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/movie/jab-tak-hai-jaan/box-office/</ref>. They've been told, as a condition of unblocking, that they should not do this, but should open a discussion about the relative reliability of sources and how we should present them. Since, despite promising to discuss rather than removing existing sources unilaterally like this, they seem to have no intention of actually starting any discussions, I'm opening this one, and inviting them to it. Thanks. -- Begoon 10:03, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, if there's a range of opinion on the film's gross from reliable sources, that range should be presented. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:36, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
