Karnataka cinema
Karnataka cinema would fall under Dravidian topics since the films are acted by Kannadigas and is in the Kannada language. Wiki Raja 22:04, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Karnataka cinema includes Kannada, Konkani, Tulu, Kodava, Banjara and Sanskrit movies as well. Not all artists are Kannadaigas and even if they are, it is irrelevant for branding this topic as Dravidian topic.


 * Now prove that Kannadigas belong to so called "Dravidian race" or "Dravidian ethnicity", which doesn't even exist. Just because Cinema in Karnataka is majorly produced in Kannada belonging to a dravidan group of languages, it doesn't become a dravidian topic. If we go by your logic, movies produced in England, will become "Hollywood", just because both speak English.Gnanapiti 22:28, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Kannada Cinema.jpg

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

Help Please!
I have started creating the article List of Indian film series. I need your help in adding the film series in Kannada language (if any). Since there might be a lot of them consisting of 2 films, my opinion is that only those film series with 3 or more films should be added (all of which have been released only). Please feel free to come and add more and do the required corrections. Once fully created, this list will be highly informative. All future opinions and comments should be posted here or on my talk page only please since I would not be watching this talk page. - Jayadevp  13  17:12, 26 December 2013 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Cinema of Karnataka
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Cinema of Karnataka's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "timesofindia.indiatimes.com": From Telugu cinema:  From Vishnuvardhan (actor):  

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 23:56, 3 August 2014 (UTC)

"Footfalls"?

 * However, the market share of Kannada movies in the gross domestic box office collections declined to 2% in 2023, with the footfalls dropping from 8.1 to 3.2 crores in 2022.

"Footfalls"? Is that an actual thing, or is it an artsy-craftsy metaphor for ambulatory customers? – AndyFielding (talk) 09:20, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
