Unreliable sources

There were multiple sources that are unreliable. The Bangla Movie Database source appears to be similar to Imdb. If so it's not a reliable source because it allows user contributed content. Imdb was cited as a source although it has been removed for now due to a copyright violation. Gab4gab (talk) 11:27, 30 December 2016 (UTC)

Notability

The current sources fail to satisfy WP:NFILM. Although one is currently a dead link. The other three contribute very little to notability. If others exist it would be very helpful to identify them to help argue against deletion at Afd.

• The bandlanews24.com article is largely a review of Popy's career. The film is mentioned but only to say it was the debut for Popy, released in 1997 and did well at the box office. Not significant coverage of Coolie the film.
• The prothom-alo.com article is an interview of Popy. The intro mentions that Popy's first film in 1997 was a great success. The title Coolie isn't even mentioned. Nothing more is said about Coolie. The rest of the article is questions and answers from Popy. Not significant coverage of Coolie the film. If Popy had mentioned Coolie it would not contribute to notability because she is not independent.
• The Bangla Movie Database reference provides little coverage of the film. There is no review/commentary. Like Imdb it contributes little to notability because it is a comprehensive file guide.

AFd was closed as no consensus February 9, 2017. The number of sources used has increased to 12, still with no significant coverage of this film. Gab4gab (talk) 14:43, 9 February 2017 (UTC)

challenged unsourced content

Budget and Box office entries in the film info box have been challenged as unsupported by reliable sources. They were removed, restored and removed again. They were unreferenced in the info box. They should not be restored until consensus is reached here or references to reliable sources are provided. Gab4gab (talk) 13:59, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
