Talk:Dakuan Da Munda

Multiple release dates for an upcoming movie
Sir there are two release dates for this movie and both supported by reliable sources. The tribune one says 7 Sept 2018 and the Times of India one says 10 Aug 2018. Initially I kept both dates when I created this page because both agencies showed different dates. Now another user says 10 Aug 2018 is the new release date. Another source ghaintpunjab.com also says 7 sept 2018 in it's Poster, but I don't know it is a reliable source according to Wikipedia. I originally followed Template:Film date which says multiple dates can be put in the infobox. Please help. Khairaarsh (talk) 16:31, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Since there's uncertainty about the release date, and if you can't find a source that clarifies that the film was delayed or moved earlier, then maybe it would be prudent to either keep the date as "2018" or "mid to late 2018", perhaps with an explanatory text within the references. Like:
 * Does that help? It might be more complicated than we need, but I don't think that using two sets of dates is the right idea, because that sounds like there are two releases. Erring on the side of generality is better than complicated specificity. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 03:49, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
 * That really helped sir. I am going to do what you suggested. Regards, Khairaarsh (talk) 09:24, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
 * edit: I did it without using template:film date because it was causing problems. Is it OK?
 * For the time being, I'm sure it'll be fine. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 14:12, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

Film is releasing on 10 august which is being shared on social media by all cast and crew and cinema lists are also shared. References for 7 sept is very old. Preetzaildar8 (talk) 14:09, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

Title spellings are wrong
It is “Dakuaan Da Munda” not “Dakuan Da Munda”. Preetzaildar8 (talk) 03:45, 17 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Transliterations can take many forms. Which multitude of sources do you consider as being sufficient make this article conform to your interpretation? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 05:41, 17 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Tribune says "Dakuan da Munda", ghaintpunjab.com says "Dakkuan da Munda" and Amazon.in calls it "Dakuan da Munda" Check here . I believe it should be kept as "Dakuan da Munda" as transliterations can take many forms as explained by Cyphoidbomb. So renaming it back. Khairaarsh (talk) 09:35, 19 July 2018 (UTC)
 * There is a strong argument to be made about what the producers envision the title of the film to be once Romanised. If they've invested in printing posters spelled "Dakuaan", that probably counts for something. Sorry for pinging you randomly, but is there a WikiProject Film norm for how to deal with foreign film titles that are transliterated? Do we base our article title on the multitude of reliable sources, or do we consider the transliteration the publishers are putting out there, like here and here? Thanks, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 15:07, 19 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the ping. The short answer is that whoever thinks it is wrong, should log a requested move and take it from there. Translated film titles can sometimes be a problem, but there's nothing outside of a requested move process to say what is right or wrong. Sorry that wasn't much help!

 * Sir, in the following Youtube video you can see the press conference with the film crew and the background hoarding clearly says Dakkuan Da Munda at 0:10 . I personally think double 'aa' or 'kk' will complicate the spelling. We can keep it as 'Dakuan' for now till legit posters come out or the movie releases. Khairaarsh (talk) 16:30, 19 July 2018 (UTC)
 * This looks like some sort of RfC could help, get lots of opinions and see what the consensus is. I'm not sure about any helpful guidelines for this personally. - adamstom97 (talk) 21:11, 19 July 2018 (UTC)


 * I agree with Lugnuts and Adamstom.97 on this. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 08:14, 20 July 2018 (UTC)


 * RfC seems nice but wouldn't it take 30 days? BY the time RfC ends, the film might get released since 10th August is the release date as per some sources. Khairaarsh (talk) 10:51, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
 * WP:RM are (normally) closed by 7 days.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 17:06, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Sir, what do you think? Should the article be moved to Dakuaan da Munda? As in this facebook page most posters seems to be that Khairaarsh (talk) 16:34, 12 August 2018 (UTC)

Please Tag My Name
I am Assistant Director In This Film (Dakuaan Da Munda) Plz Tag Me In The Creative Team of Film Jaspal Singh Saawan (talk) 06:45, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
 * There's no intuitive place to put that information. Assistant directors are not typically mentioned in film articles, unless there's some noteworthy reason to do so. Note Captain America: Civil War, for example. No mention of an assistant director. Wikipedia doesn't endeavor to be a replacement for IMDb. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 20:07, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
