Proposed merge with Chandigarh edit

Not at all. There is no Chandigarh Film City and this is a clear case of an advertisement by property builders. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Harpreetkanwar (talkcontribs) 19:43, 15 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

It is not notable enough for a standalone article. A small portion dedicated to the film city and the controversy surrounding it will probably suffice.  — fr 07:09, 27 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

it's not even built, is it? Article seems like pure promotion; deletion might be a better alternative.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 23:00, 18 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Support: Merger with Chandigarh is appropriate. - Jazze7 (talk) 06:28, 19 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

No way it can be merged - there's nothing known as Chandigarh film city! its unheard of!! Its a poor gimmick by property developers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.195.85.204 (talk) 13:41, 30 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

I'm not familiar with the calibre of the sources. If reputable, in my opinion that justifies a small section in the city article. If they are more like advertising media masquerading as news, that would suggest the citations are weak and the film city article should simply be deleted. Either way, it should not remain as a standalone article in its current form. Crowsus (talk) 03:58, 10 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Unaware of any such development of Chandigarh Film City edit

Proposal if suggested should be rejected. No doubt, the Punjabi film & music industry is seeming to be a booming business in the tricity area, there has been no noticeable development of the idea of Chandigarh Film City. There seems to be no or maybe minor mentions as such of the same in print or digital media. As suggested by The Montreal IP, this could be a gimmick undertaken by real estate developers. Imo, establishing it would definitely generate jobs in the tricity on the whole. Gurpratap Sidhu Bunny (talk) 00:48, 1 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Then article should be deleted - Jazze7 (talk) 18:00, 2 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

There is no film city and even if there were it has nothing to do with Chandigarh as a city. edit

This like merging Manhattan with a New York Subway vendor. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Harpreetkanwar (talkcontribs) 19:44, 15 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Oppose merge for now, on the grounds that the on-again off-again saga, over more that 13 years, is independently notable. Also, news in December 2019 (I've just updated the page) suggests that there renewed attempts to resurrect the project. Klbrain (talk) 14:36, 11 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
