List of most-viewed Indian music videos on YouTube → List of most-viewed Indian YouTube videos – This seems to be consistent with the similar page List of most-viewed YouTube videos. There's one video in the list Chotu Ke Golgappe that appears not to be the music video. Either this video has to be removed from the list or the article name should be changed accordingly 2600:6C58:4B7F:6084:7536:6FD2:5804:A2D3 (talk) 13:27, 19 May 2021 (UTC) —Relisting. ~ Aseleste (t, e | c, l) 08:16, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I just found out that on 27 March 2020, the page was moved from List of most-viewed Indian videos on YouTube to List of most-viewed Indian music videos on YouTube by User talk:Akandkur, who also removed all the videos related to rhymes on the previous edit on the same day. It appears that the word music was specifically included in the new title by this user, specifically to avoid other types of YouTube videos. I am including User:Me arunkt as this user placed a warning on User talk:Akandkur talk page while reverting the removal of rhymes. Further note: The tag for the requested move was removed by User talk:Akandkur in a recent edit. 2600:6C58:4B7F:6084:6C45:7948:C5CD:63D8 (talk) 03:40, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: There's now also: "List of most-viewed Arabic music videos on YouTube", "List of most-viewed French music videos on YouTube", and "List of most-viewed Pakistani music videos on YouTube", by the way. Paintspot Infez (talk) 20:20, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: In my opinion, these articles also need title change. My point of view is that why to have a page for music videos only when there is no no page all types of videos. 2600:6C58:4B7F:6084:A04D:FCD4:337C:DB5F (talk) 00:33, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The pages "List of most-viewed Arabic music videos on YouTube" and "List of most-viewed French music videos on YouTube" do not refer to any specific country, but refer only to the languages. 2600:6C58:4B7F:6084:78E3:D6A1:B794:C024 (talk) 13:46, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Leaning to keep but define scope: unlike these other similarly titled lists like "List of most-viewed Arabic music videos on YouTube", "List of most-viewed French music videos on YouTube", and "List of most-viewed Pakistani music videos on YouTube", the list in question is not defined by language (Indian is not a language). The scope should be restricted to music videos either (1) sung in certain languages notably spoken in India (but not including English) or (2) sung in any languages but produced in India. The first criteria may significantly change what is included, while the second may need demonstration of significance. --Luminoxius (talk) 18:09, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Edit war

The user User talk:Akandkur continually manually reverting to a version from 2018. I reverted these edits and noticed (User talk:Akandkur/Archive 1#List of most-viewed Indian music videos on YouTube the user also participate in a discussion on the talk page. But this user is not ready to discuss anything and but wants to revert the version from 2018. Especially it is surprising to see that this user claims this page as their own as can be seen from their last edit summary that says Enough is enough of the current! Make the editing stop, because this is my page!. During these edits, this user already removed the requested move tag twice. I am not sure how to respond to disruptive vandalism. I would appreciate any suggestions and comments. 2600:6C58:4B7F:6084:A04D:FCD4:337C:DB5F (talk) 00:45, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Lut Gaye

This song is and was originally an Urdu song. Please stop labelling it as Hindi. The language of the song doesn't change just because the origin of the singer changes. نعم البدل (talk) 04:26, 4 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Do not change the format of the article before discussing it here

Please do not change the format of the article before discussing it here. Addition of videos (Zaroori tha) from a UAE-based channel in the Indian-channel is unacceptable. Why Chotu ke golgappe was removed from the list? There is no need make two list, one for children and the other for music; if so what happens to other kind of videos like chotu ke golgappe. 149.36.19.74 (talk) 14:34, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
