Bolti Bulbul

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I tried to remove the notability tag, which has been attached to the article since September 2018, but another editor restored it saying that the film isn't notable and needs to be left until it is proven to that editor.

There seems to be coverage, but I need a consensus that this film is notable so that, if kept, the tag can be removed without argument. Donaldd23 (talk) 23:58, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete A notability tag indicates the subject may not be notable and is there to encourage editors to locate additional coverage. It does not assert that the subject is not notable.

This film article currently has two sources cited. The Gomolo.com source does not mention this film, thus of no help to notability. Possibly there was coverage in Gomolo.com but the archive cited does not contain it. The other source, Encyclopaedia of Indian cinema, is a comprehensive film guide which, per the film notability guidelines, is not sufficient coverage. The coverage it contains is very minor. It is listed in the filmography of Desai Dhirubhai (page 83 ) consisting of "1942: Bolti Bulbul" and again mentioned in the section on Rathod Kanjibhai (page 197) saying he worked as production manager on this 1942 remake of his 1927 silent film of the same name.

The notability of a film is not based on the existing article sources. However, given the trivial coverage in the existing sources and the lack of any new sources identified in the before process it appears to fail WP:NFILM. I'm willing to go along with delete for now. Happy to reconsider if significant coverage in additional sources is discovered. Gab4gab (talk) 12:58, 30 October 2020 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Nom doesn't seem to be !voting delete here, would benefit from additional input.

 * Delete Gomolo.com appears to be a user-generated database site, which cannot be establish notability. Without any additional sources, I'm inclined to delete. -- Ab207 (talk) 06:50, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
