The Hundred Bucks

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

Non-notable film. Was made by an editor blocked for sockpuppeting. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NFILM as it has not received 2 reviews from major publications considered reliable by our standards.

 * Keep. There is a rather negative review (Times of India) currently linked on the page, and this one, also negative. MY, OH MY! (mushy yank)  08:08, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep I've added the sources from TOI and BOI. Shahid  •  Talk 2 me  10:12, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Even if we consider the Times of India article, the Filminformation source is just a blog and not considered reliable according to our standards WP:ICTFSOURCES. It would therefore not pass the standard for 2 reviews from reliable sources. The BOI page is just a random information page with some information without any basis - like the fact that it grossed about $1200 USD over its entire run.  Jupitus Smart  13:15, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * For a better assessment of Film Information, see their page bottom About Us or read this, or Komal Nahta. - MY, OH MY!  (mushy yank)  14:20, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Komal Nahta owning Filminformation does not impart any automatic notability to the website as notability is not inherited. And looking at the review's quality it appears to not have been written by Komal Nahta (it just mentions Filminformation as the author) compared to other articles like this - which explicitly mentions him as the author. Also I don't think UNBumf which you quote in Komal's defence is also just a blog and not in our list of reliable sources.  Jupitus Smart  15:06, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Even if Komal Nahta was not the author, he is the publisher of what a few lines above you called a ’blog’. Komal Nahta does not need anyone’s defence, it was just for information. - MY, OH MY!  (mushy yank)  15:55, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * All I am saying is Komal Nahta is not so big a deal that an website he publishes would be deemed noteworthy. India's best critics can be seen here National Film Award for Best Film Critic - which includes the likes of Namrata Joshi and Baradwaj Rangan. A look at the quality of the review would burnish why it is no better than an ordinary blog. Best.  Jupitus Smart  17:47, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Also refer to Sockpuppet investigations/Maheshworld which concerns this. The writing is probably done by a paid syndicate as the original author of the article was also a sockpuppet  Jupitus Smart  15:12, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Whoever the page creator might be, this film does seem notable to me and I think it meets criteria for notabiltiy. And I will leave it at that, if I may, thank you. - MY, OH MY! (mushy yank)  15:56, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep I found this review in Hindi(?). Gtranslate shows it's a small article with some critical comment. Seems fine. The source isn't listed in our reliable source list. Oaktree b (talk) 15:20, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
