I saw that all the early pages related to bollywood films by years are named such as "List of Bollywood films of 0000" for example List of Bollywood films of 2013, List of Bollywood films of 2002 and so on all the early years pages are named like this. So why this one which is of the same format different? It will be better changing this article name to "List of Bollywood films of 2014" or changing all the names of the previous article to "Bollywood films of xxxx" written by year for avoiding conflict and putting these names in the same category.

These all inaccuracy led the page witnesses an edit war and temporary semi-protection recently. And I'm more than just sure, that It'd be happening all the time taking into consideration differences reported by the sources considered reliable by Wikipedia. Can anybody suggest what should be considered more plausible and why? Anup Mehra ✈ 13:26, 5 February 2014 (UTC)

Well, I find the subject non-notable. I've earlier been made an unsucessful attempt to find sources and establish notability. There are one or two sources that says Film is about to release in 2013. But there is apparently zero sources published recently quoting the movie name about to release on 14 March 2014 (as claimed by the producer, i.e. you). I do not reject the idea that it might be just because of one alphabet title of the film. You are insisting the movie is notable, hence I'll request you again to show the significant coverage of subject in reliable sources(See, WP:42). I'm trying to make you understand that subject must be notable. Wikipedia illustrates different notability guideline for different subjects. For films, See, Wikipedia notability guideline for films. And I would like to make it clean, simple and straight that it is the only notability issue the article is nominated for deletion. I'll leave few page links here, might be found useful to you. Such as Wikipedia reliable source examples and guideline related to citing sources, WP:REFB. I'll be happy answering more questions related to Wikipedia. Regards, Anup Mehra ✈ 14:06, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
The promotions has just begun 10 days ago. So yes, will take time till it reaches via notable mediums. Will bother you from time to time about wiki suggestions though, lol. Thanks again — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.190.181.238 ( talk) 16:14, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
I'll cite the source no.2 in the body of the article. The only alphabet W as the film title possibly hinders google search engine to find sources related to the film. I'll make an another request to you to find sources. I'll also suggest you to archive the article in your sandbox in case, if deleted now for notability cause and later found multiple sources around the date of release or thereafter, could be reinstated.

The genre for "Darr @ the Mall" should be "Horror" and not "Drama". This is because Darr @ the Mall is a horror movie. Thanks. 223.239.204.194 ( talk) 10:50, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
I have boldly deleted the "verdict column" from the Highest Grossing Films table because it is unclear what it attempts to summarize. Critical response? Sales? It doesn't seem consistent with anything I've seen from MOS:FILM and seems comprised of personal interpretation. Who issues the "verdict"? Who decides what a "disaster" is? Who decides what a "blockbuster" is? What is the definition of "blockbuster"? These sorts of summaries are the type of thing that should be left to aggregators of critical content the way Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic look at professional reviews and issue an overall score. If the summary attempts to explain ticket sales, let the numbers from the ticket sales do the talking. Regards, Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 19:23, 9 February 2014 (UTC)
Okay, it is an opinion not a fact from your point of view and I would be agree with that for a moment. Now can you please explain why an opinion published in multiple reliable sources could not be included in an article on Wikipedia? Anupmehra - Let's talk! 20:35, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
Hi, can we get someone to please double-check the numerical totals for the various films in the Highest Grossing Films table? The concept of crores is messing with my brain. I found this source (which may or may not be reliable) that Jai Ho may have made a total of Rs 110 crore. That doesn't seem consistent with "₹2,025,800,000" Thanks, Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 03:56, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
I'm confused by the totals at Gunday. Are we taking daily/weekly box office reports and increasing the totals ourselves? Doesn't that seem kind of synthesis-y or orginal research-y? Also, I found this, so I'll be adding it. Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 16:20, 22 February 2014 (UTC)
Please arrange the table of Top 10 correctly. - Cod Swick! ( Reply here) 16:50, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Hello admins, I want to say that please change the colors of month November and December. The color of November is #db7093 and of December is skyblue, according to last years. Please change that.

Editors (who may or may not be the same people) keep changing the genre of Lingaa from Comedy to Action/Thriller [1] [2] [3] (One IP from Qatar, the other from Singapore) when the only source, BollywoodHungama calls it a comedy. Anyone have any info on this? Seems like a straightforward WP:CRYSTAL issue, but even if it is released we'd need something more than personal interpretation. Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 20:38, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
In these edits, an IP editor at 218.248.6.153 added IMDb ratings to the article in good faith. I have reverted the addition, as website user ratings are not noteworthy. Please note Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Film#Audience response. We shouldn't be highlighting only one source's opinions anyway, as this presents an unduly weighted perspective that may not be representative of reality. Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 17:58, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
In this edit I removed the rowspan and color formatting to bring the tables into alignment with WP:DTT. Per WP:ACCESSIBILITY, Wikipedia strives to make its data available to the widest number of visitors possible. Tables with rowspans and other odd formatting, like the vertical text that was previously employed do not facilitate accessibility for visually impaired readers who employ screen reading software. Yes, I know people like the colors, but there's no need for it and consensus already exists to make the data accessible to everyone. Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 23:34, 24 December 2015 (UTC)
