Weak delete/merge to B. R. Ambedkar. It seems to have a list-entry in Ashish Rajadhyaksha; Paul Willemen (10 July 2014). Encyclopedia of Indian Cinema. Routledge. pp. 319–. ISBN 978-1-135-94318-9. but it doesn't go beyond name/year entry. It's not a review, and a list-entry in minor encyclopedia is not the same as an actually entry in (minor or whatever) encyclopedia. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 08:03, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Piotrus, I think, such passing mentions can't be called as WP:RS, as it's just one name in the huge list of other films QueerEcofeminist^{"cite! even if you fight"!!!} [they/them/their] 07:33, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Agree, hence my delete/merge vote. But weak, as the source suggests it is closer to borderline - but yes, still on the wrong side of it since a passing mention is still a passing mention. If it got at least a paragraph entry in an encyclopedia, it would be notable. An index-like mention is not enough.--_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 07:07, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Marathi film, It may have fewer sources but the film is old/cult yet notable enough to have an article, if the decision goes delete I would suggest redirect to B. R. Ambedkar Biographical article of the film's title WikiLover97 (talk) 20:41, 17 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
WikiLover97, Please take the responsibility of pointing at valid WP:RS so that this article can fulfill the requirements of WP:NFO or at least WP:GNG So that, we could establish the notability for this article. and remember there is nothing like inherently notable, WP:NRV, hope you can go through these policies. thanks QueerEcofeminist^{"cite! even if you fight"!!!} [they/them/their] 07:38, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep There are many films made on Ambedkar and it's not possible to merge all to the main biography. I believe film has it's own notability and an independent article is preffered than that of a merge. Similar nominations on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bole India Jai Bhim and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Balak Ambedkar. Thanking you --✝iѵɛɳ२२४०^{†ลℓк †๏ мэ} 04:15, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Tiven2240, the subject of every article is different so let's keep the discussions different, thanks QueerEcofeminist^{"cite! even if you fight"!!!} [they/them/their] 07:40, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Tiven2240, you might wish to read WP:AADD. ∯WBG^converse 11:59, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The entire film crew is non-notable. Many of the actors have been featured over this film, only. The other films by the director seems to be hardly notable either. My searches across Marathi newspaper archives does not reveal an iota of the coverage about the film or its involved figures. Fails WP:NFILM by a few miles or so. ∯WBG^converse 12:10, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep this marathi film is very important and related about Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar.. More information should add. प्रसाद साळवे (talk) 11:16, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

प्रसाद साळवे, Any valid sources? And remember nothing is inherently notable, please have a look at WP:NRV thanks QueerEcofeminist^{"cite! even if you fight"!!!} [they/them/their] 15:43, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment - QueerEcofeminist user is a casteist Person, he just targeting Dr. Babasheb Ambedkar Related Articals like Bole India Jai Bhim, Yugpurush Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Balak Ambedkar. just look his history of editing he never help to article. like references or growing. but just ignore and keep article. QueerEcofeminist is also targeting specific user also. प्रसाद साळवे (talk) 17:06, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

delete per my explaination at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Balak Ambedkar, and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bole India Jai Bhim. The film fails generalised notability guidelines for films, as well as there are no other evidences of notability. Also per user WBG above. —usernamekiran(talk) 18:39, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
