I have created the page Buddha Film which is a project that is entirely different from the other film Buddha (film). So a merge into the latter article is not appropriate. You have mentioned that you have merged the article to the former, which actually has not and does not require a merge too. Hence the deletion instruction is to be removed. I hope you have understood. Thanks.Yugeshp 13:35, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

• This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 14:02, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

• Comment - reading both articles, it's not actually clear whether they're about the same film, so a merge would be inappropriate. Walton ^{Vivat Regina!} 14:55, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
• Comment - If this one is not deleted as unsourced crystal-balling, it should be renamed to Buddha (2007 film) but not merged into Buddha (film), which was rather about a history of films about Buddha, before it became an entry about a different unreleased film which would be Buddha (2008 film).--Tikiwont 16:43, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
• Comment Buddha_Film is written by D.K.Goel whereas Buddha (film) is written by Thich Nhat Hanh Dhammapal 11:09, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

I am unable to understand how Ian Meissmart says that both the articles are about the new Buddha film, in essence they are, but please be informed there are several films named 'Buddha' and the ones in discussion are separate projects. Pls. read the article before you place deletion instructions. The one I created Buddha Film is written by D.K.Goel and is being directed by Sreedhar Allani and is scheduled for release during 2007, where the other one Buddha (film) is by Thich Nhat Hanh (book) and written by David S. Ward and is scheduled for release in 2008. The view of other Wikipedians is the same as mine, which means the articles are not be merged as they talk about different projects, though the title of the film is the same. I am ending the discusssion here. You may go ahead with the deletion of the article if you wish. I am creating a new article Buddha (2007 film) as recommended by the user Tikiwont. I hope you will be more prudent while placing deletion instructions and will take a little more care by reading the articles in detail before taking such a step. Yugeshp 14:21, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

It would be better to simply move it. We can then redrect this discusion as well. --Tikiwont 14:55, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Didnt know i could move it, as I already created the new article, am unable to move the same now. Yugeshp 07:35, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

• Delete it now, but it should have been moved. User:Yugeshp has recreated the page at Buddha (2007 film), and he was the only real editor of Buddha Film, so there's no history loss issue.

Comment: Meissmart, please be more careful in the future. If you aren't sufficiently interested in the article to read and notice all the names are different, then you aren't sufficiently interested to merge/delete/rename. I got here when I noticed the dueling hatnotes on the Buddha page. I soon found that Buddha (2007 film) was not listed at Buddha (disambiguation). I started fixing that, so I verified that the movies are different, and then I stumbled on a third page (Buddha Film). One sure thing I have learned editing Wikipedia: When something doesn't make sense, step back and try to make sense of it. It usually still doesn't make sense, but the experience is useful. — Randall Bart 18:37, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the views — Randall Bart. Now that the new article Buddha (2007 film) is in place, Buddha Film the old one needs to be deleted. How do I do it? Yugeshp 15:39, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
