Jai Bhim[edit]

There should be some explanation of the title; what does "Jai Bhim" mean? Languagehat (talk) 15:00, 26 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Dubious source[edit]

@Cyphoidbomb: Sir, can this source be used in the article? While this website seems blog type and unreliable, the snapshot (an image) from the Sight and Sound magazine written by Mark Cousins (film critic) is making me think otherwise. Please check. I've added a "better source" tag. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 15:28, 8 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Fylindfotberserk: The source in this case isn't dependent on the website, which is merely hosting it. Sight&Sound seems reliable enough; it would be a valid source even without the url. Unless we have reason to believe the website is fabricating the whole thing, therefore, I'd say it's not a problem. Vanamonde (Talk) 15:42, 8 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Vanamonde93, I agree, but the blog ness of the source and the fact that the real source is just an image made me tag it with a "better source needed". Let's see what Cyphoidbomb says. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 15:48, 8 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Fylindfotberserk: I agree with Vanamonde93 here. I'd use {{cite journal}} and ascribe the info to Sight&Sound, written by Mark Cousins. I tried to find an archive of this magazine but was unsuccessful. Sometimes you get lucky at Google's Newspape Archives. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:04, 8 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Cyphoidbomb: Thanks for the input. Should I remove the "Better source needed" tag? - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 16:09, 8 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
