Meri Adalat (2001 film)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Appears to fail WP:NFILM, no reviews found in a BEFORE. All currents sources are database sites.

PROD removed with "take it to AFD" with no improvements/reviews added. Donald D23  talk to me  00:15, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete as yet another unwarranted deprod by Shshshsh, who seems to be on a spree of defective deprodding without discussion or article improvement. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 04:45, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
 * User:Mellohi!: Not sure why you pinged me and what exactly you want. Shshshsh is indeed on a spree of halting another spree of "defective" prodding of Indian films without article improvement on the part of the nominator(s). Shshshsh also happens to be one of the editors who's saved numerous AfDs with WP:HEY. I want articles to be given a chance of improvement, not necessarily by me, on AfD where I see a chance. Again, I don't know why you pinged me, but if you think this rhetoric is going to make me think twice, you have another thing coming. I believe in inclusionism, I do not support mass deletions of this sort. Shahid  •  Talk 2 me  09:37, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep sources have been added, including two from books. This is indeed a B-grade film, but information is available, including BO statistics at Box Office India and inclusion at TV Guide and others. More digging in the archives is needed, not deletion.

 * the TV Guide listing is little more than a cast list, trivial coverage. Still nothing for GNG. Unless we can find long, reliable articles talking about the film, this will likely get deleted. Simply confirming it exists doesn't support keeping it. Oaktree b (talk) 15:48, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
 * @Oaktree b: I know that, I'm trying to find more. Shahid  •  Talk 2 me  09:35, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Strong Delete per nom. I'd appreciate if User:Shshshsh could find more refs. However, I was unable to find any refs per WP:BEFORE that plausibly contribute to WP:GNG and WP:NFILM, the TV Guide has no critical commentary and is mainly a routine cast list (trivial coverage), this is echoed across all other refs currently in the article, which are either databases or non-significant mentions.
