Comment: Where's the coverage from BBC Pashto and Dari? Also, the Rotten Tomatoes ref should be removed as it only includes audience ratings. Nighfidelity (talk) 15:18, 20 April 2026 (UTC)
- Comment: The film aggregate listing and routine coverage in AMC and Fandango are not enough to establish notability on their own. The administrative listing as 'eligible' for the Oscars is not considered notable as a formal nomination or award. UserMemer (chat) Tribs 19:57, 15 January 2026 (UTC)
