List of Sikhs in Punjabi Cinema

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Apart from various issues like BLP where the religious faith of the enlisted is unsourced and over all lack of sources, there doesn't happen to be any relation mentioned as to why the religious faith matters with acting skills in Punjabi film industry. WP:LISTCRUFT for intersections. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 03:30, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

 * This is a potentially salvageable topic, IMO, but as it stands, certainly delete for a lack of BLP compliance and verifiability. WP:TNT also is relevant. Vanamonde (talk) 04:00, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't see how it can be salvaged unless a connection of religious beliefs with acting skills is made. BLP issue of individual's belief is secondary to that. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 04:03, 7 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete both nominations. We could make lists about every single religious group (Muslims, Hindis, Christians, Buddhists, Baha'i, etc.) in Punjabi Cinema and none of them would pass WP:LISTCRUFT. Ajf773 (talk) 05:18, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete – as per WP:NOT/WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. And this type of lists have no encyclopedic value whatsoever. - NitinMlk (talk) 18:27, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment - the author of the list,, is justifiably topic banned from commenting on Sikh and Punjabi articles, so cannot comment here. He has (indirectly) suggested that he created the list after seeing List of Sikhs in Bollywood, and if that list exists, he can't understand why this one should not. Notwithstanding WP:OTHERSHITEXISTS, I think he may a have a point. Thoughts? --RexxS (talk) 20:36, 7 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Note: For same deletion rationale, I have also added List of Sikhs in Bollywood to this AfD to save community time and efforts by not raising a separate AfD. Procedurally pinging all the editors who have commented earlier to make them aware of the update. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 03:54, 8 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete – as per WP:LISTCRUFT. There is not point of having these kind of lists. - RG &#124; (talk) 12:53, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - no evidence that religious views have any impact on acting ability; not worthy of a stand-alone list Spiderone  19:25, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
