List of highest-grossing South Indian films worldwide

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Cinema of South India (and I'd guess this page) is a combination of film industries in four different languages. This is basically List of highest-grossing Tamil films plus other languages within India but not including List of highest-grossing Bollywood films. It's an odd distinction to have.

 * I'm not really seeing a deletion rationale here, particularly since it's not really an "odd distinction" when reliable sources use it (as seen in Cinema of South India) and the "South Indian film" grouping is formally organized within the industry. postdlf (talk) 13:16, 12 July 2015 (UTC)
 * The rationale is the other film articles are organized by country (see Template:Lists of box office number-one films) and organizing a list of these films is not necessary and could instead be merged into List of highest-grossing Indian films. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 01:39, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
 * I see even List of highest-grossing Bollywood films has been merged there (though just recently), so that makes sense. postdlf (talk) 13:16, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

 * speedy delete as A-10 attempt to POV fork off List of highest-grossing Indian films created by an inappropriate cut and paste copyright violation from some previous article. --  TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom  19:17, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
