Guns and Roses -- Ik Junoon → Guns 'N Roses: Ik Junoon – Or Guns 'N Roses – Ik Junoon, I don't think MOS:DASH allows 2 hyphens together: "Do not use substitutes for em or en dashes, such as the combination of two hyphens (--). These were typewriter approximations.". As for the "and"/"'N" issue, see the film's display [1]. Timmyshin (talk) 18:28, 17 August 2015 (UTC) Relisted.

Support fixing the dash in the title; a double hyphen substituted for an em dash is bad formatting. There's no such punctuation in the Urdu title, though, and my superficial Google search indicates that the most common form of the title in English is simply Guns and Roses Ik Junoon - no punctuation. That's the title I'd support. 209.211.131.181 (talk) 00:52, 18 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
Support move to Guns and Roses: Ik Junoon. Good catch. But the film does appear to be spelled "and", not "N'". — the Man in Question (in question) 00:48, 25 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
Relisting comment. Seems there's an agreement to do away with the double hyphen, the question is whether it should be replaced with a colon or have no punctuation. Jenks24 (talk) 23:51, 26 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

"Ik Junoon" (इक जूनून) simply means "A Passion"; thus the name "Guns and Roses: A Passion" requires a colon as a rule of English grammar (unlike, for example, if "Ik Junoon" meant "Are the Best!"—"Guns and Roses Are the Best!" would not require a colon). The name is partially in English and this is the English Wikipedia. And films and books do not usually have the colons written on the title cards or title pages—but it is conventionally understood that a colon is implicit in such cases. — the Man in Question (in question) 00:11, 1 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Support move to Guns and Roses: Ik Junoon are there any sources for this film? Any DVD cover artwork? In ictu oculi (talk) 09:22, 27 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

I looked for box art or posters in English before, and again just now. I've had no luck finding anything official. Hence my preference for the common title form. 209.211.131.181 (talk) 13:37, 27 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
