Salaar

In Salaar, Deccan Chronicle states "production cost of 'Salaar’ is just Rs 270 crore-plus including star and technicians fees besides making costs and VFX" which means it is not overall production cost. Other sources which are more reliable gives clear budget. SonaMani1 (talk) 13:04, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Mensxp is not reliable and others either are outdated such as this [1]. Deccan Chronicle gives detail on rumors of budget. RangersRus (talk) 13:08, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

How other sources can be romors? They too are reliable. SonaMani1 (talk) 13:10, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hanu Man soundtrack

There is Draft:Hanu Man (soundtrack). Please add any content and move to mainspace. 103.161.55.188 (talk) 15:53, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

why create a draft when there is already an article on the movie Hanu-Man where it can be added under the segment Music? I think you should add it there if any information mentioned in the draft that does not already exist on the article Hanu-Man itself and with reliable sources. RangersRus (talk) 16:36, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Look that draft. It has many content with reliable sources, to have a separate article. 103.161.55.188 (talk) 16:43, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

the draft is fine but it is questionable as to why this needs its own separate article. Why not add it under Music segment on page Hanu-Man? There are many movie soundtracks and they all are mentioned under Music segment on the movie's page. Go through Hanu-man Music segment and use the necessary information from your draft to be included here. RangersRus (talk) 16:59, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

But there is separate soundtrack article for Hi Nanna (soundtrack), Jersey (soundtrack), Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire (soundtrack), Sita Ramam (soundtrack), etc. like them these too made. It has more information and can be added dubbed versions, dubbed versions can't be added in film's music section. That's why this needs and separate soundtrack article. Hopes you understand and moves to article. 103.161.55.188 (talk) 17:14, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your help at Dunki (film) with enforcing a WP:NPOV.

What is the source link? If it has claim by the makers then it is not reliable. If it is independent source, I need to see the link and study it before updating the boxoffice numbers. RangersRus (talk) 15:00, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please review the latest revision of the article. I think it's not correct. Charliehdb (talk) 16:33, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @RangersRus, contributions The Hindustan Times article reported the figure based on the box office tracking portal Cinetrak. Is that reliable? Anoop Bhatia (talk) 13:15, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Good question. I did not notice cinetrak. Looks unreliable without any information on owners, employees. I will say unreliable but let me add it to ICTF post for others to have a say in it. If others also think its unreliable, please help me removing this source and the number it supports on other pages. RangersRus (talk) 13:25, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have added topic to get response. If others consider the same, please help in removing the source and the number it supports on page List of highest-grossing South Indian films as well. RangersRus (talk) 13:40, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, I too asked something like that Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Film/Indian cinema task force#Reliability of reliable sources using sacnilk as their source. Anoop Bhatia (talk) 13:54, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

IC 814

Hi @RangersRus, twitter link shared as reference are that of the journalist themselves and their take on the movie. the said journalist are being quoted verbatim. news portals have covered half of the tweets or just a few tweets without followups. for example Neelesh Mishra's 1st tweet was covered by news portals, but his followup tweet where he has clarified that he has not seen the series https://x.com/neeleshmisra/status/1830119252122354005. what should be the SOP in this case? Mavrick2022 (talk) 07:03, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If the tweet was picked and covered by the news media reliable source, then the news source can be shown along with the tweet it mentions. Vir Sanghvi's tweet was covered by Firstpost news, and that is ok and in same way if you can find news media covering the tweet of Manak Gupta, then please use the media source. Neelesh tweet was covered by Firstpost also. It has to be secondary independent reliable source covering the tweet that they find noteworthy and not anything else. Tweet itself cannot be used as source. If news media thinks that a statement made is noteworthy then it is covered in their article and that is what needs to be shown on the page and not the statements made directly from the twitter source. RangersRus (talk) 13:10, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

i am aligned on this, but out of curiosity, when we are stating what a person said, why can't their own tweet be used a reference and a source of truth? their tweet is being used as verbatim, and not being extrapolated. In case of neelesh mehta, not including the 2nd statement changed the whole context to his first statement, since he made that statement even without watching the series Mavrick2022 (talk) 13:33, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Tweets are personal social media accounts, considered self published and tweets that are not covered by reliable sources are likely to constitute undue weight. Maybe he did not see then but saw later. What news media found noteworthy to report from his tweet is whether the hijackers used false names such as Bhola, Shankar, Burger, Doctor and to this he found it true as covered by many independent reliable sources. RangersRus (talk) 14:00, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Greatest of All Time

Could you look at this revision. Is the sources mentioned reliable? Charliehdb (talk) 14:47, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Charliehdb: news9live is reliable as it is a channel of TV9 network. Others like Pinkvilla, IndiaToday, Indianexpress are all OK as well. These were the sources you had question on or did I miss anything? You can also ask in ictfsources talk page to get more views on news9live but I am pretty sure others will call it reliable too. RangersRus (talk) 14:58, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

IndiaGlitz

Please continue purging it from articles. The only exceptions should be pre-2010 South Indian films articles as they don't have many sources. However, in Anniyan and Chandramukhi can you remove IndiaGlitz refs and still make the articles look coherent? Kailash29792 (talk) 09:14, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I will look at those two pages. But there can not be any exceptions for any year articles when it comes to unreliable sources. I sympathize with you but I can not do so because of Wikipedia policy and guidelines. I have also seen arguments by other editors that so and so page has the same source so why not use it on this page or that page. I will continue to add citation needed tag where needed and editors can help in doing research to find reliable sources. RangersRus (talk) 11:58, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It would be a great help to inform User:Kailash29792 before removing almost all of an article's sources like you did at Nepali (film). DareshMohan (talk) 16:49, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I do add citation needed where necessary and editors are welcome to improve the article with reliable sources. If almost all the sources are unreliable, they will be removed but will be tagged with cn. RangersRus (talk) 17:46, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your edit on Anniyan. Now I need to find out how to rewrite sentences to match existing sources. DareshMohan is welcome to help. Kailash29792 (talk) 19:34, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
