"declared hit"
[edit]In these edits I made three significant changes, which I will describe and explain the rationale for, since editor Muthalathu seems confused.
- I removed the summary of critical response "The film released on November 20, 2015 to positive reviews" because it is a controversial statement that is not attributed to a specific reliable source. However, even when we have the benefit of critical response aggregators like Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes to evaluate critical response, they are often at odds, which makes summarizing critical response a subjective, and often inaccurate, effort.
- I removed the statement "The film was declared a hit by Kerala box office" because it's subjective fluff that only exists to promote the subject. This is an encyclopedia, and we're not here to deliver as factual the opinions of anyone in the Indian film industry. (We also wouldn't attribute an opinion to "Kerala box office", since it is neither a person, nor a trade publication.) In this case, the assertion is unsourced, but even if sourced, it would represent undue weight to allow one voice to "declare" a film anything. We strive for a neutral point of view in our articles and "the film was declared a hit" is inconsistent with Wikipedia's goals.
- I removed box values that are attributed to topmovierankings.com, because nothing about this site suggests that it is a reliable published source with an established reputation for fact-checking and a clear editorial policy. Their About us page says nothing about who runs the site, and there's no indication that any established journalists, who presumably have been taught all about journalism and journalistic integrity, are involved in the site. Muthalathu, if you think that the site is reliable, you should open a discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Film/Indian cinema task force and seek the community's input, but until you get a thumbs-up for the site, there should be no presumption that it meets our qualifications as a reliable source.
