Robinhood (2025 film)
This is a non-notable future film that may be in post-production limbo, and does not satisfy film notability. This article was correctly draftified by User:CNMall41 as not ready for mainspace. It was then moved back to article space by the originator. It was then draftified again by User: Ktkvtsh, but was then moved back to article space by User:Fathoms Below, correctly, because an article should only be draftified once, and if the draftification is contested, the next stop is AFD. So here were are.
The guideline on future films says:
Additionally, films that have already begun shooting, but have not yet been publicly released (theatres or video), should generally not have their own articles unless the production itself is notable per the notability guidelines.
Nothing in the article is about production, except to state that there was production. The article does not have reception information, because there has been no reception because it is an unreleased film, but reception information is the usual basis of film notability. The article consists of pre-release publicity, and Wikipedia is not for promotion or pre-release publicity. A review of the references shows that they are all only pre-release publicity. They are mostly press releases, and are not significant coverage of production. Many of them are not significant coverage at all.

- Delete or Draftify as nominator. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:39, 20 January 2025 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Film, Andhra Pradesh, and Telangana. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:39, 20 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete - Note that this was moved back to draft on a different occasion as well, after it was created under a name variation to avoid scrutiny. I've reviewed the references then and unless something magical has happened in the last few hours, this fails notability. One thing not mentioned by nom is even if these references are seen as significant, many are unreliable under WP:NEWSORGINDIA. --CNMall41 (talk) 04:55, 20 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete or draftify per source assessment. If the production isn't notable, there's no reason for this article to be outside of draft space right now. jellyfish ✉ 05:06, 20 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete or draftify per the above. The sources in the article (and similar ones found in a quick Google news search) aren't quite enough to support an article prior to release. Eluchil404 (talk) 02:06, 23 January 2025 (UTC)
