An IP is continuously changing the title to the English title. There is no need to use the English name, when the film is in Bengali and it is the COMMONNAME. TitoDutta 16:50, 26 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Just seen this. The COMMONNAME is A River Called Titas. Film Fan 20:27, 28 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Although this is an English wiki, the film was produced in Bangladesh, and the name and language in the original film is in Bengali, so the name should be a romanization of the Bengali name. Konveyor Belt express your horror at my edits 20:37, 28 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - change, if there's no preference given to a minority of English names per

  • According to what policy? Film Fan 11:46, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Indian film naming conventions. Have you moved any other article following the same rationale? If so, please list those articles, we need to check those moves as well. TitoDutta 11:51, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • You do realise you just linked me to a TALK page? Here's a quote from
    WP:NCF
    that addresses this issue specifically:
"Use the title more commonly recognized by English readers; normally this means the title under which it has been released in cinemas or on video in the English-speaking world. Normally, this will be an English language title that is recognized across the English-speaking world; however, sometimes different English-speaking countries use different titles, in which case use the most common title, and give the native and alternate English title(s) afterward.
Note: in the following paragraphs, the phrase 'the English-speaking world' refers to countries in which the majority of the population speaks English as their first language; it thus includes the UK, USA, Canada, Australia, Ireland and New Zealand, as well as several smaller countries. It does not include countries such as India in which English is a common second language, but in which films are rarely produced in English." Film Fan 17:28, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Discussions generally take place in talk pages. Read the discussion and its consensus. Have you moved any other article following same rationale. If so, please list those articles. --TitoDutta 17:36, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • No. Read my previous post. Film Fan 17:40, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Is there anything to read? Per the Indic film naming convention -- if a n Indian film's original title is used in English sources, use that. BTW, you have still not answered, have you moved any other article following the same rationale, if so, please make a list. Anyway, I don't have any more time here. I have many other tasks. --TitoDutta 18:10, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. I assume that a title English speakers can read is "more commonly recognized by English readers" than one they can't, as NCF, quoted above, puts it. When a title is given in the form "Titas Ekti Nadir Naam (A River Called Titas)", as this one is here, the obvious conclusion is that "Titas Ekti Nadir Naam" is being given as the Bengali title, while "A River Called Titas" is the English language title. 37.9.56.152 (talk) 22:27, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Don't understand the oppose votes when
    WP:NC-FILM clearly states that India is not included in "the English-speaking world," so the title in the "UK, USA, Canada, Australia, Ireland and New Zealand" wins out here. 82.132.215.176 (talk) 09:32, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply

Recent edits: release in US and UK

Ghatak's all films face financial crisis and were not exported well. Right of a short film Amar Lenin was purchased by Russian Government and that is the only significant overseas release of Ghatak's film (other than Titash's release in Bengaldesh). Titash releasing in the United States and United Kingdom — is an exceptional claim — needs a clear citation. A special screening after 40 years of the film's release is not a "release". TitoDutta 12:24, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Whether or not it was released theatrically, it is available on Blu-ray/DVD/online, all of which are "releases". The title in the US and UK is A River Called Titas. Film Fan 17:25, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Where it is clearly mentioned? I just showed above the title is Australia is "Titash Ekti Nadir Naam". --TitoDutta 17:28, 29 September 2013 (UTC)r[reply]
  • We're talking about the US and UK. Film Fan 17:35, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Ya, then show, the film released "only" in the US and UK with that title and no other title, and more importantly the film "released". A DVD after 40 years of the film's release is not a release unless it "clearly" mentioned it. --TitoDutta 17:39, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Give me one source which clearly mention, the film "released" in those countries (with any name). Ghatak's film, which always faced critical financial issues, releasing in the United Status is a big news which must be clarified with details, not just with poster image.

  • I did it, and I'm thoroughly bored now. Film Fan 21:28, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move prematurely closed

No consensus has yet been reached, the RM has not even been relisted once, and Jionpedia, who was heavily involved in the discussion, has closed it. Tried to revert and relist, but undone by Jionpedia. Film Fan 15:34, 7 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

7 days has been already passed, dude, so it was necessary to close it. --Jionpedia 15:40, 7 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
See above message, Jionpedia. Film Fan 15:53, 7 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Where? And please don't make false allegations.--Jionpedia 16:01, 7 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
