The Great Sphinx is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia article of 1 production — in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.
“While the Great Sphinx of Giza was shot on location, lighting problems caused the pyramids to be replaced with miniatures.”
Filmed here, per Wikipedia
Productions whose English Wikipedia article names The Great Sphinx as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.
Set here, per Wikipedia
Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in The Great Sphinx, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement — two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.
