- List of highest-grossing films (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
This is a list taken from boxofficemojo.com. Needs to be maintained over time. Isn't this free advertising for this site? Anshuk (talk) 09:07, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Excellent article which gives no undue prominence to boxofficemojo.com. It is our policy to cite sources so articles should not criticised for doing so. Colonel Warden (talk) 09:58, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Box Office Mojo is a good source but it's not the only source for this kind of information. It can be found at IMDb, The-Numbers.com, and many other places. This article in no way advertises any websites. --Pixelface (talk) 12:55, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Keep Nominator does not provide a valid reason for deletion - virtually all of our articles have to be updated as new information comes out about our subjects (Wikipedia isn't printed on paper). The list is not a copyvio as implied, nor is it advertising as previously discussed. Hersfold (t/a/c) 13:34, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep What's so difficult to maintain about this article??? The three Bollywood things you nominated need to be merged though. The Dominator (talk) 15:11, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep just because it is the primary source doesn't mean it's advertising. And go delete the whole Category:Best sellers then. igordebraga ≠ 16:08, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep Although it might be advertising, it's a good list.Dr.orfannkyl (talk) 19:20, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Excellent article with useful information. The text portion of the article could use a little expansion, but it is valuable nonetheless.Tomanyletters (talk) 01:55, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong keep - even today I was looking for the information covered in this article for my academic work... And I found this AfD :) Pundit|utter 01:26, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
