There have been two speedy delete requests for this article. The first was an A7, but films cannot be deleted as an A7. The latest one was G2 (test page), but that's not applicable, either. I thought about deleting it under G3 as a hoax. To the extent I understand it, Boss 2 would be a sequel to Boss (2013 Bengali film), which was released last month. If there is a sequel in the works, I can't imagine it would be released this year. But if the hoax part is only the year, I'm not comfortable using G3. I found a couple of unreliable sources on the web indicating there is a sequel (e.g. [1]), but it could be made-up wishful thinking. In any event, the film is easily deleted pursuant to WP:NFF if for no other reason. Bbb23 (talk) 14:09, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as per WP:N and WP:FUTURE. About seven words in the whole article - nothing comes up whatsoever about the film on reliable source sites. Perhaps this can be recreated when confirmed. Adrianw9 (talk) 16:53, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete: WP:N, WP:TOOSOON. No coverage, no information, no source, nothing (not only in web, I regularly follow offline sources too, I have not heard/read anything still) --Tito☸Dutta 00:39, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
~~Speedy delete~~ Redirect to Boss (2013 Bengali film)#Sequel will be best option in my opinion as independent sources are present--Bisswajit (talk) 06:34, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

and per WP:INDAFD, a few more

Delete as failing WP:NFF, but not as a speedy. Redirect for now to Boss (2013 Bengali film)#Sequel where this topic might best for now have a sourced mention. Sorry guys... but using a better search parameter, the topic of this planned sequel to the 2013 Boss is NOT unsourcable, and is beginning to be spoken about in independent sources.[2][3], (etal) It is simply TOO SOON. We can add inforation on a "planned sequel" to the Boss article, but it does not merit a separate article... yet. It's just that the author used a title that returned poor results. We can allow recreation once we have more sourcing toward notability. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 10:33, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As I said in my nomination, a film can never be speedy deleted per A7. Other criteria might apply, but not A7. Thus, if a deletion discussion is to be closed early on a film because the film is obviously insufficiently notable, it would be a snowball closure, not a speedy. As for the sources Michael found, thank you very much. The redirect sounds reasonable to me, but before doing so, the title should be changed so there's a space between the 2 and the open paren and the year can't be right. So, someone should propose a reasonable title.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:14, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That makes good sense. My own thought until filming begins and we have a confirmed title is something like Boss 2 (Bengali film sequel)... but NOT for the article title if it ever merits a separate article. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 01:20, 2 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment changing vote to Delete as per Schmidt's reasons. Still agree with reasons for deletion however. Adrianw9 (talk) 13:37, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
