Scope

We need to establish the scope of "highest-grossing", that is, the specific cut-off for inclusion. Are we going by the top 10 in each language? We have 1 Bengali, 10 Hindi films, 11 Kannada films, 11 Malayalam, 9 Marathi, 13 Tamil, etc. The second thing we need to establish, is what the scope is for the summary box at the top of the article. Currently we have 20 examples. Also, since Hindi is almost always going to dominate this table, is it worth including? TheRedPenOfDoom, Bhuvannalla, thoughts? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 20:06, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I say top ten on each one with top being 15 I'd guess. It may just be easier to do an RFC and get votes across the board. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 11:47, 24 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

For uniformity, it is better to maintain top 10 in all the sections including the top one. If we put top one at 15 or 20 and the remaining at 10, I think editors are being confused and are adding more to the top 10 lists of the other sections. We can allow less than 10 if information is not available but not more than 10. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bhuvannalla (talk • contribs) 12:39, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Recently, Hindi movies picked up in gross collections. Earlier Telugu and Tamil movies used to collect almost similar collections when compared to Hindi movies. But if Telugu and Tamil movies are dubbed into other languages, they have the same potentiality as that of Hindi movies. So it is better to keep the top box and we can give the summary for it as "The following list shows India's top 10 highest grossing films, which includes films from all the Indian languages". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bhuvannalla (talk • contribs) 13:55, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

For the record, I'm not opposed to having 10-15 in the overall section at top, but maybe for the sake of being consistent with 2015 in film, we should consider a top 10. My biggest objection is that it's going to be a Hindi-heavy block—we know how pissy that makes some people—but maybe that's not avoidable. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 20:02, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

this page is rubbish? all wrong facts?

its comical that dasavatharam the first tamil movie to make 200crore and went on to make 220++ crores is not in the list. but crap movies that didnt even touch 100 crores are found in the sh1t list. what the he11 is going on? is wikipedia a junk place? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.185.187.132 (talk) 09:07, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

THERE IS NOTHING HERE THAT IS SOURCED. Athu and ennaganna fanatics are updating this page with their own sh1t. it stinks. wikipedia is wasting their money and resources on some thugs and rowdies who provide false information. delete this page — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.185.187.132 (talk) 09:11, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

58.185.187.132 Wikipedia is not a soapbox, and there is no justification for leaving two complaints four minutes apart for a problem that you could help fix, if in fact it were incorrect. This is a volunteer project, not a paid one, as you assume, so if you want to see something changed you're free to volunteer your time to dig up reliable sources (i.e. sources with established reputations for fact checking, not blogs) that support the information. You should be aware that all box office values for Indian films are estimations, not incontrovertible facts, so any box office information should be taken with a grain of salt anyway. Most of the content in the article is sourced, so I don't understand your complaint that nothing is sourced. It's also unclear what Tamil film you're specifically referring to. This one? I don't see 200crore+ being sourced there. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 09:49, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well said Cyphoidbomb. Yes we are just volunteers and not getting paid for any info that we provide to this page (with reliable source). There's alot of difference to be fanatic and wiki editor. For me I just want to provide the right info for our viewers. 58.185.187.132 if you have any info with reliable source about your concern please leave us a message and we will check and bring it up to the list. Thanks AK Mathan (talk) 05:27, 22 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Dasavathaaram only says 100+ crore so yeah, any helpful information would be useful to a number of articles. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 06:25, 22 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello I am not fanatic like you guys. I am baffled by your prejudiced opinions. yes, I am referring to the same wikipedia link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dasavathaaram [go to box office section, it states 200cr]. On what basis, you claim that other movies have raked in that much amount - by your so called unreliable sources. if you do not have verifiable facts, you should not publish. unlike hindi film industry, tamil film industry does not tract BO collections. So do not publish such false information. I find some of the above comments from 'so called' volunteers insulting. I just want valid and verifiable information to be published, in fact this same page had dasavatharam and now it has been removed. even kochadayan is removed now which made more than 120cr. so kanchana 2 collected more than dasavatharam and kochadayan. There is a limit for everything - it is not possible to tolerate nonsense for ever. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.185.187.132 (talk) 07:49, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed Thuppakki gross

The reference being used as of this version of the article attributes the 180 crore total for Thuppakki to the film's own production company, Eros. We cannot use a primary source for controversial content like this, as a film's producer has a clear conflict of interest and would have every reason to manipulate the numbers. We need better sources. I've flagged the data as disputed, which is bound to ruffle feathers, but needs to be done to maintain integrity. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 21:42, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Change in Highest Grossing Kannada movies.

According to wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saarathi, Kannada film Saarathi (2011 movie) has crossed more 45 crores. Apart from this, http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/kannada/movies/news/Sangolli-Rayanna-set-to-complete-100-days/articleshow/18239373.cms , says Kranthiveera Sangolli Rayanna (2012 movie) has collected more than 40 crores in 75 days.

Please Update - Highest grossing Marathi films Section

Hello,

I think the section in this wiki page named as "Highest grossing Marathi films" has a missing movie record. The missing record is of the movie "Katyar Kaljat Ghusali" which is a recent marathi movie and has already grossed more than 29 Crores as per mentioned in your wiki page- 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katyar_Kaljat_Ghusali_(film)'.

Kindly review and update the sections.

Thanks!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yog025 (talk • contribs)

 Not done - Unfortunately, I had to remove the box office value from that article because it was not attributed to a reliable published source. The value was attributed to this, which looks like a standard cookie-cutter blog, not a reputable news publication. And I don't know about you, but it looks to me like the Warner Bros. logo appears in the browser tab, which only suggests an amateurish operation.
