• The article is developing and could use help and become only the second Indian cine artiste to become a FA. Please help. Cheers Thamizhan 20:40, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Afraid this article is way too elementary in style. It just strings up the facts, some of which I am not sure of. For example, I believe his mother is a bank officer, not a housewife. Also, are we sure his wife's maiden surname is Krishnan? I thought she was a north Indian.

• One of the most popular actors with a hysterical fan following at his peak. Is credtited with being called the first superstar. For a movie actor of his status, the article is very poor. - Hameednoor 22:29, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

• Hameed is upset because I reverted his edits to the article. It wouldn't hurt to have more detail in the article, which is sketchy, but it should NOT be personal opinion re the greatness of Rajesh Khanna, and it should be referenced. The articles re Bollywood actors are all too often filled with rumors lifted from film gossip columns, or dimly remembered from gossip columns. The assertions may be true but then again may not. - Zora 03:10, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

I do not know what Sri Hameed had written, but in its present form it does not match with the status of an Actor like Rajesh Khanna. Moreover, just now I have edited it in brief safely including some facts like he performed in RAvindra Nath's song free of cost; tried to side line Khanna and included names of other awards he has been given. But again all that has been vanished. What a mockery are you doing here?-- Jatin ram

This article is subject to disputes and factual inaccuracies which makes it look as if this movement is still alive and kicking in India. I think this is more than a good reason to start working and contributing..

Wouldn't it be better to rename it the Khalistan Movement, as Khalistan never actually became an international state. It was just the dream of a group of people. I know this isn't the place to discuss, just wanted to get some things sorted before it is subject to any sort of collaboration effort. Nobleeagle (Talk) 08:32, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

You're right. Done --Andy123(talk) 17:03, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

I agree with you, my vote goes for it to be renamed to "Khalistan Movement". 220.227.152.109 18:49, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

I've moved this back for the time being. Please see Talk:Khalistan. Sukh | ਸੁਖ | Talk 17:22, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Exactly where do you want to discuss this matter, why not here? 220.227.152.109 18:49, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Because this is not a page to discuss renaming issues or infact any content issues in regards to Khalistan. That's why we have a Khalistan talk page. Kindly refrain from turning this into an even longer discussion or rant. Sukh | ਸੁਖ | Talk 13:01, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

As Blacksun stated above. We need Bollywood FA Articles. But I think the article that really deserves to be featured is Bollywood itself. Right now it just isn't featured article material..

Perhaps Cinema of India deserves more attention than something as narrow as Bollywood? Vastu 04:06, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

The article was submitted recently for WP:FARC, citing the following reasons:
Does not meet criteria 1, 2a, 2b, 2c for a featured article. It also has a template underconstruction on the main page. It has two sentence paragraphs, almost no references for the curious, not comprehensive, badly formatted (the national symbols of India is sitting in the middle of the page) and has stublike sections..
1. Lack of easily verifiable references and citations Quite simply, for an article this size, it cites just a few references, and those hardly at all within the text.
2. Use of weasel terms.
3. Short, choppy sentences.
With such a strong Indian wikipedia community, I dont think we should have let that happen. thunderboltz^{a.k.a.Deepu_Joseph |TALK} 04:38, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

The points raised on FARC aren't anything to worry about. In fact, one of the points raised was that it is tit for tat in response to Nichalp's views on the PRC article. Nothing to worry about, I don't think it is in desperate need to collaboration. Nobleeagle (Talk) 05:39, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

I agree with noble eagle. It has already been improved in past few days. FARC was mostly a sham. Their are other articles in far more need of attention. India article does not need a colloberation tag to motivate us to keep improving it :) --Blacksun 17:29, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

It is a pitiful stub still. Considering that Kunjarani has been active for over a decade in winning laurels for the country, the least we can do is spend a week on her article. The article needs a section on awards and achievemenbts and one on her early life, at least. Information should be easily available. --Gurubrahma 13:27, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

I've created a stub. We can develop it to a featured article level. Lots of beautiful pictures are already available on wikipedia.

    • IMO, it should focus on Cabinet in general with a summary of the current cabinet which links to a main article on the 2004 Indian Cabinet or something like that. In fact, a specific instance of an Indian Cabinet is bound to be very fluid and dynamic so that it is difficult to be up to date on that. -- Sundar 04:14, Mar 1, 2005 (UTC)

Well, I hope accurate data is provided while editing the article. The Pakistanis claim that Indian aircrafts losses were thrice more than PAF's aircraft losses during the 1965 war, something which most Indians don't believe.

I read the Hinduism article. It is pathetic. I don't know how it made it into the featured list. Or maybe the damage was done later. Some problems with the article:

• Extremely long, with many unnecessary details
• Highly unorganized, poor continuity
• Poor language
• POV at places
• Important things missing

A major overhaul is required.

• One of the biggest and best festivals in Gujarat.
• This article is factually incorrect. Uttarayan is an astronomical term for the six-month period (not the day) when the Sun moves north (as opposed to dakshinayan when it moves south). Makar Sankranti, which is one of the 12 sankrantis that happen every year marks the beginning of this period. deeptrivia (talk) 13:57, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

The nomination may therefore by changed to Makar Sankranti, unless of course you intended to work on the astronomical concept itself. deeptrivia (talk) 12:27, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

• If deeptrivia is right, then I think that the nomination should be for the kite flying festival. It is obvious that the nomination was for that (looking at the date of nomination). --Salim87 12:58, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
• I am very concerned by the fact that all the users who have voted for this article have very few edits (12, 1 and 3 respectively). Shouldn't we have some sort of minimum requirements to vote to remove the possibility of sockpuppets.--May the Force be with you! Shreshth91($ |-| r 3 $ |-| t |-|) 15:25, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
• I don't think you can set a criteria for users to vote. That spoils the whole point of Wikipedia. Then maybe you should not let anon users to edit anything. I have been a fan of wikipedia since the past few months now. Have started an article also. My interests have been in the aviation sector of India and my city ahmedabad where I have been constantly updating (both with and without logging in). That is the gr8 thing with this site. you can log in anytime if you feel like it, or you can go on without that. it is very easy to make edits. it does not matter if it is 12 or 1000 as long as they are good ones. So, if you are going to highlight my name everytime with tags like "This user has 12 edits" then frankly, i dont care to log in or vote in wikipedia.

It is perfectly in order to make comments such as those made by Shreshth91. While it is very difficult to establish sockpuppetry, it is amazing to see three new users figuring out about INCOTW very fast and then voting for the same topic. Each topic would get its chance, so do not fret. Personally, I do not make any nominations for INCOTW when the pipeline has 4+ articles - no article is undesirable for INCOTW, all are welcome. Similarly all editors are welcome, but sockpuppetry is not welcome. --Gurubrahma 17:34, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

• a The Article on the FIlmfare award is extremely incomplete. This is the showcase of the Indian film industry and we do not have enough to offer to the millions who may be interested in knowing more. Abhishek 12:26, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

• The city is growing in geometric proportions each day. Its also the biggest city in Kerala. Every other day, there is a million dollar investment here. Also, thousands of foreign and domestic tourists vist the city every month. The existing article is pretty good, and with a little bit of effort, I think we can raise it to a featured article level. So, why not take the challenge? thunderboltz 15:09, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
