List of Indian Films on Rajputs

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The PROD rationale supplied by seems sound to me and I reproduce it here following the de-PROD:

per WP:INDISCRIMINATE. The intersection of Bollywood films + main characters that belong to the "cluster of castes, kin bodies, and local groups" Rajput is trivial and random. Also, "based on" is an overly pretentious way to say that there are main Rajput characters in a film. What next, list of books with main characters that are Shudras? List of computer games based on Agrahari Sikhs? The trivial possibilities are endless.

I add to that comment that the de-PROD rationale says it all: this is just caste puffery nonsense and we need to get a grip on it before it explodes in all sorts of directions. Sitush (talk) 05:17, 19 May 2018 (UTC)

In addition, I would note that the de-PROD seems to make a somewhat dodgy claim of how Rajputs have respected females of their community etc. Female infanticide in India suggests otherwise. It is all a POV exercise. - Sitush (talk) 08:59, 19 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete. My rationale is already quoted by Sitush above, but I also have to say: OMG the de-prod rationale as a reason for keeping a list is fantastically irrelevant. Bishonen &#124; talk 09:04, 19 May 2018 (UTC).
 * Delete Per Sitush and Bishonen above. Also, the obvious fact that the "about rajputs" part is unsourced and unsourceable. (And the edit summary on this diff is the best delete rationale I've seen in a long while!--regentspark (comment) 15:10, 19 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete - Arbitrary list. Per nominator. The borders of what qualifies to be a film on Rajput is unclear, as to me Rowdy Rathore seems like a valid inclusion in the current form of the article.  Jupitus Smart  13:18, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per nominator. It is an unnecessary list, following this if we do a list for Sikh then, almost all punjabi movies will be added in that, which is useless to do so. NevaK^ talk 06:54, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. List is pointless and is designed to falsely flatter the ego of a sect in society. Cesde v a  (talk) 08:09, 23 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Note: close, please. I see that the creator and only contributor to the article, User:Mrsinghparmar, has !voted "Delete" above, so perhaps this can be closed. Bishonen &#124; talk 08:20, 23 May 2018 (UTC).
 * Snow delete per everyone. Just get this over with. Ajf773 (talk) 00:46, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
