Hi,

Any way I appreciate and am grateful that you initiated and handled the FAC process very finely. Lets hope for the best. Regards :)--Omer123hussain (talk) 12:08, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Jatindra Mohan Sengupta, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Presidency College (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Re: Swayamvaram
Yeah. I had to correct lot of reference and major ce as lots of quotes were used as is, without adding much value to the article. But I liked working on this article. If you have come across the references or sources about film's style, do let me know so that I can add those into the article. - Vivvt • (Talk) 22:15, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
- I have checked for the online sources for copy-vio but still you may want to re-verify as I might be missing something. Let me check on styles/theme. If you come across any good ref for it then do let me know. - Vivvt • (Talk) 22:38, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
- Got one book on Gopalakrishnan, "Adoor Gopalakrishnan: A Life in Cinema By Gautaman Bhaskaran". This has lot of info on each of his films, including Swayamvaram. Let me see how can we utilize it. Be it GA or FL (In case that happens ever).
- Not yet. Will add once you review the current state. I might spoil the article if I add now. So will add later. - Vivvt • (Talk) 17:38, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
- I tried addressing them using this link. I've kept some of the quotes as is. I am not sure how useful those are. You may want to address them in the review. - Vivvt • (Talk) 06:58, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

I saw your comments and will work on it. Honestly, as you've pointed out this time, there are some nicely written sentences in the article.

Hope all is fine at your end. I am currently developing the article Bhubaneswar, almost from a scratch. Its still in its intermediate stage of development and I have an aim to develop the article to GA level by April. Content addition/reduction in all the sections, except History is complete. Currently working on References for all the sections. Considering the best person known to me for copyediting, I would request you to kindly have a look at the article. I would request you to kindly summarise and copyedit at least the Urban structure' and Culture section for the time being. Regards. Amartyabag TALK2ME 15:50, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

The article you requested for CSD is not of a completely non-important subject. She is playback singer of many songs. Also producer and co-writer to many others. Her IMDb entry seems sufficient for Wikipedia's notability. To prove that this Pamela Chopra is same as Pamela Yash Chopra, you may use this source which says "Because wife Pamela Chopra liked to sing, she not only sang in several films from Doosara Aadmi (1977) to DDLJ (1995) but also produced Aaina and co-wrote Dil To Pagal Hai." §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 11:00, 21 January 2013 (UTC)

What was the book like on it afterwards? I suppose I anticipated it might have had more information. Yes, I think its pretty much FA standard now, although you could ask Tim riley or Brian Boulton to give it a read first.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 12:04, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

59th NFA
Yea. I did not see the article since last FLC. Somehow it got missed while developing SR articles. Rambling man had said that article still has issues with prose and second run with GoCE might help. Though he did not mention what all those in details. I am not sure whether we should approach GoCE one more time or not. Whats your opinion on that? - Vivvt • (Talk) 03:00, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
- That should be fine. The GoCE edits might take couple of months. By then, DFF might also declare winners for 60th NFA. - Vivvt • (Talk) 17:50, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
- "Chopped off"!! But I agree to what you are saying. Unless we trim it down, it wouldnt make any move further. So lets do it that way. - Vivvt • (Talk) 20:04, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
- The separate section for all the jury members for three sections makes it little disconnected. Also, IMO, putting it at the end of all, gives less importance to the juries. In case you want to have it clubbed together, putting them before award section starts would be appropriate. Again, I wouldnt have it separate in the first place itself. :) - Vivvt • (Talk) 00:59, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

- Do you suggest GoCE copyedit? else we can also ask any INCINE members for the same.

That one and MeA both deserve a good treatment, but it can be hard to find good sources. Of course the book would help. Right now I am concentrating on Priyanka Chopra as you know. I am just about ready to submit it for FA, but I am apprehensive after seeing the beating that Kareena Kapoor is taking there. So much is getting rewritten or removed; and you yourself are participating in that. I scanned some other FACs that are ongoing to see the comments, and they are pretty brutal as well. I am surprised that anything gets passed. Do you think PC stands a chance now? BollyJeff | talk 03:10, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

How's Hyderabad?
Hi Dwaipayan. The GOCE request for Hyderabad is very near the top of the queue now, and today a very good copy editor came to my talk page offering to do it and asking about the status. Has the additional text about landmarks that you and Omer were thinking of been added yet, or do you have plans? If so, perhaps we could take off the on-hold marker now. What do you think -- is it ready? Best, Simon. --Stfg (talk) 14:50, 12 February 2013 (UTC)

- Hello Dwaipayanc. You may recall that on 10 January 2013 I asked my local library for a copy of:
- Prasad, Dharmendra (1 January 1986). Social and Cultural Geography of Hyderabad City: A Historical Perspective. Inter-India Publications. ISBN 978-81-210-0045-1.
- The book has now arrived from the British Library. I have been told I cannot take the book out on loan and can only view the book within my library. As my library is some distance away from me, I will not be able to view the book often; perhaps only once or twice per week. Would you like my help with the article? I am prepared to edit the article using the book as a reference. Obviously, any subsequent changes I make can be reverted followed by discussion on the talk-page, per the Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle (note this is not a policy or guideline) --Senra (talk) 11:27, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

Re:Other stuff
Hey, I have seen Argo and loved it. Though, my favourite film of last year was probably Zero Dark Thirty or Life of Pi. Seen them? I had seen J. Edgar last year and was a bit disappointed with it. I am a huge fan of Clint Eastwood's work, so this one seemed far inferior to his other films. But Leonardo was fantastic (as usual). --smarojit (buzz me) 05:02, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

Excellent in regard to Mother India Dwai, but can we please hold off FAing until Kapoor and Chopra are done, there's a lot going on at the moment to keep track of and I don't just mean Indian articles!.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 16:56, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
Of course I'll read it LOL, I'd like to think you'd consider me a co-writer on it, I have made 191 edits to it after all! I believe I added as much as I could find on it, not having the book that you had of course!♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 17:44, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
Started Zia Sarhadi, you might be interested in expanding it. Have you and Redtiger checked Highbeam and JSTOR for possible further content for Mother India? I think it's nearly ready for FA now. I can still spot quite a few things, some which I've fixed myself, but no doubt will be addressed during the FAC.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 17:10, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
How about nomming it on March 1, St. David's Day here in Wales.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 18:08, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
- Mark seems to be done. PR says "but that's all my comments". Let us nominate on tomorrow's auspicious day and complete Mark Arsten's comments over the weekend latest. --Redtigerxyz Talk 18:42, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
My draft for FAC, feel free to modify: A tale of a woman's battle against the world, Mother India (1957) is an epic Indian film which was the most expensive Bollywood production and earned the highest revenue for any Hindi film at that time and even made it to the Oscars. The article is GA since last March. The article underwent an exhaustive peer review by Crisco 1492, Tim riley, Bollyjeff and Mark Arsten, and was copyedited by User:Rothorpe. We are nominating this article for featured article because in our opinion, it satisfies all FA criteria after the copyedit and the peer review. --Redtigerxyz Talk 19:12, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
Excellent, agreed, it's ready for FA.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 19:25, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
Yeah, this sounds nice. So, March 1 is the day. Please go ahead.--Dwaipayan (talk) 22:43, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Mother India/archive1. Though I archived PR to start FAC, will recheck if any comments are pending. --Redtigerxyz Talk 15:38, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
Thank you
Thanks Dwai! I guess all our hard work paid off! BTW you deserve credit as well; your edits only helped the article get better! :) -- Bollywood Dreamz talk 19:01, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

It went very fast. Article creation, DYK nomination, DYK review, DYK promotion- all happened within 13-14 hours. Have you watched this film Template:Did you know nominations/Ami Aadu? Last part of the plot needs some work (Suleman loses one hand in Iraq bombing). Have you seen the film by any chance? --Tito Dutta (contact) 03:06, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

Why did you feel it necessary to redo this section again, after one of the FAC reviewers re-wrote it recently? This thing is a constantly moving target. BollyJeff | talk 18:00, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- Yes, he did it on March 6. he was concerned about keeping like data together also, which seems not as good now. BollyJeff | talk 18:17, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- I am not saying that your version is bad, but after the reviewer made his comment, I changed the section, then he changed it (presumably to his liking), then you changed it again, even removing stuff. Now today PKS has added a bunch of stuff that needs some copy editing. Too many cooks in here. BollyJeff | talk 18:33, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
