New image?
I just came across this beautiful high resolution pic of SRK! File:Sharukhan.jpg. What do you think? Should it replace the current Infobox image?2.51.21.156 (talk) 18:52, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Hi, it's already being used as the main image on Shah Rukh Khan filmography. --Krimuk2.0 (talk) 19:57, 22 November 2017 (UTC)

One of the highest paid
The edit was made by a banned sock on 5 September 2017, and it links to an opinion piece, that can be written by anyone, it is not written by staff member of Forbes. You can't use an opinion piece of make huge claims on this article. See featured article version, it has not used such opinion piece. Although using them will certainly degrade the article's quality. Raymond3023 (talk) 11:07, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
 * a) Forbes is a high-quality WP:RS, and should most definitely be used. Your claim: "it is not written by staff member of Forbes" is ridiculous. How do you know that? The article has been published on Forbes. We should believe their website or a random claim by a new Wiki editor?
 * b) The Forbes article was not published when this page passed FA.
 * c) Read WP:IDONTLIKEIT. --Krimuk2.0 (talk) 14:13, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Forbes is an RS and I just checked that this is written by staff, but still you have to decide what is WP:UNDUE and what is WP:DUE on the list, and also follow WP:CON in place of showing your inability to collaborate. Are you even aware of Ownership of content? Only because sock of a banned editor (see Long-term abuse/Mangoeater1000) made an edit, it doesn't means that it gets a place in FA article without consensus. First paragraph of the article already says "In terms of audience size and income, he has been described as one of the most successful film stars in the world." So why you have to make additional mention in the end of the lead? And honestly #8 is not a big deal enough to mention that on lead. Forbes' source says Mark Wahlberg is the highest paid actor, yet his article's lead doesn't makes mention of it. Get consensus before edit warring again. Raymond3023 (talk) 15:01, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Can you comment on this? Since you had reviewed the article for FA. Raymond3023 (talk) 15:18, 17 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Generally speaking, Forbes is a reliable source for that sort of information, so it can but is not required to be included. I don't really care whether it is or isn't, and would suggest if you do to start an RfC on the matter. Nikkimaria (talk) 15:24, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
 * I have already stated "Forbes is an RS", but question is whether this information is due enough for lead. When enough explanations regarding his success have been already made on first paragraph.Raymond3023 (talk) 15:30, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
 * As I said, I have no strong opinions on that issue and suggest pursuing a RfC to get a broader set of viewpoints. Nikkimaria (talk) 15:40, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
 * For now I would better hear from involved editors. I just checked that such material had been rejected before going for FA (archive:). Raymond3023 (talk) 15:42, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Mark Wahlberg's article is not WP: FA. Emma Stone, Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Lawrence are all FA-class articles, and this information has been included in the lead very prominently, as it should. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 06:49, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * What concerns me is why an editor with less than 700 edits fighting over this without ever being involved with an FAC process. does anything seem fishy here? --Krimuk2.0 (talk) 06:54, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Not everyone's life is dedicated to editing Wikipedia, and it is a pure embarrassment when people like you who have made a few thousands of edits still they don't know WP:OSE while naming me 3 "highest-paid actress" for particular years, and thinking it will lend support for adding trivial information like "8th most paid" actor. Raymond3023 (talk) 07:02, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, I'm an embarrassment to the community and the world as a whole. But that's not what we are debating here. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 07:09, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * I believe the lead should mention that SRK is among the highest-paid actors in the world, but as per this policy, "Any exceptional claim requires multiple high-quality sources." Kailash29792   (talk)  07:26, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * True but the lead has already said "In terms of audience size and income, he has been described as one of the most successful film stars in the world." Which is much broader claim than simply "among highest paid", it would look repetitive too. Raymond3023 (talk) 07:29, 18 December 2017 (UTC)

Sockpuppetry at work? Note that Raymond3023 has been previously banned for using multiple accounts. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 07:42, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * So you are now resorting to edit warring and alleging people of socking, while himself restoring edits of a banned sock. Oh and those both blocks were false cleared by ARBCOM. They don't unblock people if they have been blocked as sock. Can you expose some more of your incompetence? Not to mention you have been legit blocked for vandalism before. Raymond3023 (talk) 07:44, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * By that same logic, I've also been unblocked for "vandalism". What does that say to you? Krimuk2.0 (talk) 07:46, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * You were legit blocked for vandalism, while I was falsely blocked for socking. Big difference. Raymond3023 (talk) 07:49, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Then why was I unblocked? Make your answer all caps and all bold. Will make a "legit difference". Krimuk2.0 (talk) 07:51, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Okay so why you are restoring banned sock's edits? Raymond3023 (talk) 07:58, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * This article is on my watchlist and I only reverted an editor who couldn't even understand what is WP:OWN. Now since you have already personalized this dispute, I will stay here. I also agree with Kailash and Raymond that the bit is undue. Lorstaking (talk) 08:03, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * When did Kailash even say that bit is undue? He was supporting the inclusion, while you were not. 86.99.14.238 (talk) 11:15, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * My take: In the body, mention something along the lines of, "In 2017, Forbes published that Khan was the eighth highest paid actor with earnings of 37 million." In the lead, mention that Khan is one of the highest paid actors in the world. This is not the same as the statement already present. 86.99.14.238 (talk) 11:28, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Article is meant to be rid of those statements since before it was FA, see Raymond3023 (talk) 11:50, 18 December 2017 (UTC)

How about you two use actual arguements to justify your removal instead of the same "rvt; see WP:OWN § FA" and accusing an editor of incompetence? Also, I am well aware of what OWN is about. It seems that it is you two who need to familiarize yourselves with it. Forbes is a very strong source for things related to business/finance etc. Being among the world's highest-paid actors is a very major accomplishment (especially for Indian actors who are not frequently present in the list). And if we are going to base our arguments on WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, Wahlberg's article is a very poor example. FAs like Scarlett Johansson, Angelina Jolie or Deepika Padukone, however, are not. FrB.TG (talk) 11:38, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * You have finally joined the talk page because you can't edit the page anymore. Why you were misrepresenting the policy by falsely accusing me of alleging you of WP:OWN? Even right now you don't understand this discussion. A poor quality of WP:OSE argument is all you have? Those articles, 2 of them being about highest paid actress (bigger deal than #8 highest paid actor) have only mentioned it on first paragraph and this article similarly says "In terms of audience size and income, he has been described as one of the most successful film stars in the world." Which is not found in any of the articles you named, and it is a much broader claim than simply "one of the highest paid". Did you read? The article says "terms of audience size and INCOME", if you still can't read this then you are just saying that you have WP:IDIDNTHEARTHAT issues. Raymond3023 (talk) 11:50, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * You talking to me or them? Cause I haven't made a single edit on the this page and this discussion was what attracted me here. The broad claim is just what it is - "A vague broad claim." It, in no way, talks about Khan's remuneration. It simply implies that his films are successful at the box-office. Also, per WP:OSE, being the 8th highest paid actor in the world is way notable than being the highest paid actress in just India. (Referring to Deepika Padukone). I suggest that you read WP:LISTEN, instead of falsely accusing other editors of not respecting the consensus, which is not leaning in favour of you.  86.99.14.238 (talk) 12:06, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * I suggest you not to violate WP:SOCK policies, it is clear that you are an avid editor of Wikipedia, but you are using IP to evade scrutiny. You can start a new discussion about replacing that sentence, but for now it is more than 100% confirmed that we don't need a banned sock's edit to repeat what has been already said in better and broader terms. Raymond3023 (talk) 12:15, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Who is falsely accusing me of being a sock now? I have always edited on Wikipedia as an IP address for a long period, the changing IP address is not something that I can control. Discussing about me being a sock is not relevant here, stick to topic. I was not proposing to delete that sentence in question, I was simply conveying that the sentence, in no way, talks about Khan's remuneration, a claim which you have been making. Check this version I am proposing and convey if you agree with the version.
 * In the lead, write "Forbes listed him among the world's highest-paid actors of 2017." In this way, we are directly tracing Forbes as the original source.
 * In the body, write "In 2017, Forbes published that Khan was the eighth highest paid actor,....." writing it in a more detailed way. 86.99.14.238 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 12:39, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * That won't happen, because lead already says "In terms of audience size and income, he has been described as one of the most successful film stars in the world." That covers the banned sock's edits that you are pushing. Raymond3023 (talk) 13:05, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Leave the lead, what about inclusion in the body, which is not there? 86.99.14.238 (talk) 13:14, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes the body can cover it. Raymond3023 (talk) 13:18, 18 December 2017 (UTC) Per below. Raymond3023 (talk) 09:14, 19 December 2017 (UTC)

Raymond, please refrain from accusing someone of sockpuppetry without evidence, just because they are an IP. It is also really hypocrite of you to criticize me for basing my argument on WP:OTHERCRAP when it was you who first compared Khan's article to Wahlberg's. I don't have anything else to add here. FrB.TG (talk) 15:54, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * There was no need for you to continue it then, the argument that I had made was rather more logical than yours. Raymond3023 (talk) 15:56, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, there was when you make baseless accusations and criticize others for doing something, which you have done yourself. In future it would be really helpful if you comment on content not editors. FrB.TG (talk) 16:18, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Look at my first comment on this section, it was totally content based before other editor started with personal attacks. Raymond3023 (talk) 16:26, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
 * You forgot to mention what I have done though. Raymond3023 (talk)

As one of the FA authors, here is my opinion: The statement already in the lead is good enough. Wikipedia is not a listing of current events; we need to think longer term. Rankings change from year to year, so they quickly become outdated. Notice it said 'as of 2017', but we are only a couple days from 2018 now. You might also notice that rankings are avoided in the leads of articles about Universities. During the FA review, there was an article on his net worth from Wealth-X, but it was ultimately decided to leave it out. I think the same goes for this. That one was actually moved to the non-FA sub-article Shah Rukh Khan in the media, where there is a paragraph specifically about his wealth. I think this statement should be added there instead. Bollyjeff &#124;  talk  09:12, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks for finding Shah Rukh Khan in the media. That would be a better spot. Raymond3023 (talk) 09:16, 19 December 2017 (UTC)

Net worth should also be included !
Shahrukh Khan has got huge net worth. According to Forbes website it's $790 millions. So, it would be great if we add a net worth also to the introduction. Vikram jha18 (talk) 16:09, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
 * It was decided during the FA to leave it out of the lead, and only include well sourced in the "In the media" section. Bollyjeff  &#124;  talk  00:11, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

But in media also there is no information on net worth. While, many of American and European artist have a net worth column in the introduction and it's very general. Also, Forbes has mentioned Shah Rukh Khan's Net worth on there official page. Isn't Forbes website a well sourced website. Vikram jha18 (talk) 08:38, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

Honorary Doctorates
I see from this article in the Hindustan Times that Mr Khan is a three-time Honorary Doctor.

Shah Rukh Khan received his first honorary doctorate from The University of Bedford in 2009, his second from The University of Edinburgh in 2015 , and his latest from The University of Law in 2019.

I feel that to have 3 separate honorary doctorates from such renowned institutions merits some mention within the article. Perhaps in the 'In the media' section.

I of course defer to the insight and expertise of the Editors. I have made this an Edit Request as I do not feel I warrant any permitted access to the page as I am only a fledgling editor.

Separate section for filmography
I don't know whose idea, pages on several actors now have no separate filmography section but has been replaced with just a hatnote in the career section. For a normal reader, it's always easy to navigate if there is a separate section on filmography where the link to the filmography article is given. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:7C0:205F:8001:0:0:0:32 (talk) 22:34, 2 November 2021 (UTC)

Re: this edit

Do not add trash sources, for exceptional claims. Read the relevant policy. This is an encyclopedia, not a fan blog. This IE PR puff piece is from BollywoodHungamaNewsNetwork. This yahoo article has zero independence; is sourced to "research company Wealth-X". This is an interview filled with direct quotations; fails WP:IS; is a primary source; more importantly makes no claim of "most successful". - hako9 (talk) 19:07, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * And I would ask you to read the rest of the article apart from the lead, which already lists multiple sources for his success. I merely readded references intended to immediately support the claim, which was removed earlier in January by @Nicholas Michael Halim, presumably because it was already sufficiently supported in the body. Do bear in mind that this is a featured article since 2015 (nominated by @Bollyjeff), and multiple editor eyes have vetted the sources and claims made here thoroughly. The version that appeared on Wikipedia's main page even included a direct quote. In any case, I don't intend to revert your edits again, and would wait to know what others think.

Your point has already been discussed in the original feature article review and it was passed as it is and as mentioned by everyone if you took the time to read the full article you would have found the source yourself.

 * Why question it when it's true and backed by reliable sources (that you can't fin, that's your problem lol)? And why remove it? Because you don't like it?

1999-2003 was a time period where Khan DID NOT struggle
Khan was already established as a great actor from his previous decade. His most critically acclaimed films (and highest grossing films from that time) was ranked #1 for 3 straight years in K3G, Devdas, and KHNH. I think this time period and the next section (Resurgence) ought to be reevaluated again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.133.212.219 (talk) 20:33, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

'Legend'?
Why does the introduction start with "The Legend Shah Rukh Khan"? His legendary or otherwise status is a subjective point of view and an inappropriate term to begin an article: almost every major celebrity or historical figure could also be called a legend, subjectvely. If one wishes to include later in the article something like "he holds legendary status amongst many Bollywood film goers" this would be fitting qualification. 92.8.180.23 (talk) 09:44, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

About the image used in the introduction box
I have changed the image of Shahrukh Khan in the article to a better version that I personally prefer but I don't know why it is being removed and it actually gives a good impact on the actor's career and I actually couldn't find an image of him present in the crowd which is actually who he is and what he represents as an actor in the Hindi film industry or India and therefore I used a better looking version of him from a movie, which is critically acclaimed, of his. Beingsumants 170106 (talk) 15:59, 6 February 2023 (UTC)

Untitled
Please mention it, Shahrukh is most popular actor around the globe.Evry three of one people knows him, which means one third of the worlds population knows him, of course no other actor's have this kind of popularity, and fan base, he is popular than Hollywood's most popular actor Tom Cruise. In terms of acting, I think he is unmatchable. It wouldn't be wrong, if I say that, the synonyms of acting is SRK.And after Michele Jackson he is the only real star living. And yes! As he says in an interview, I am last of the star. It's very very true. I have seen a lot of movies,Hollywood, Bollywood, there are lots of great actor's or actresses, but he is different from all of them, as a actor, as a person. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ismail kabbo (talk • contribs) 19:06, 11 May 2023 (UTC)

Gushingly positive commentary
Today, I removed some gushingly positive commentary from the lede of this article, trying to bring it closer to WP:NEUTRAL. I was reverted with the claim that it's acceptable since the film industry gave him the nickname "Baadshah". We ran into this same sort of problem on Mammootty, where people were trying very hard to include gushingly positive nicknames and praise, all against WP:NEUTRAL.

FrB.TG, you say it's acceptable because the film industry gave Shah Rukh Khan the nickname "Baadshah". Really? Where's the source for that? There isn't one. There is no award I am aware of that is given out by any film award called "Baadshah". Barring presentation of some such proof, this is wholly unsubstantiated.

You've also tried to support this by saying the nickname is frequently used by the media. The "media" isn't a monolithic entity. There might be some articles from some media outlets that refer to him in this way, but to say that "media" refers to him in this way is flat wrong.

Further, you've reintroduced "In terms of audience size and income, he has been described as one of the most successful film stars in the world." without providing any source to substantiate it. Described by who? Where? A single source? Lots of sources? And so what? There is no award for this. The lede already contains ample proof of his stature, including the Filmfare awards, Padma Shri and more. It isn't necessary to include such gushingly positive, WP:NEUTRAL violating commentary and nicknames when they aren't supported or awarded.

I remind you that WP:BLP says "Contentious material about living persons (or, in some cases, recently deceased) that is unsourced or poorly sourced—whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable—must be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion.". Both of the statements you restored were against this policy. I could remove them again and be within policy to do so. I won't for the time being, but find sources that support your assertions that all media use this nickname, and that there is wide support for him being described as you suggest, or it will be removed per policy. Thank you, --Hammersoft (talk) 14:40, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
 * The article passed its FAC and appeared on the main page with these claims in place meaning that consensus was gained for this. They are very well-sourced. If you skim the "In the media" section, you will find each of these claims to be properly sourced and attributed (for example source 245 says he is "Rightfully called King Khan' and the 'Baadshah of Bollywood" meaning that it's not just their opinion but it's a widely known nickname for him within the Indian film industry). And here you can see how many book sources confirm this; one example from a Springer Nature-published book (Stardom in Contemporary Hindi Cinema): "SRK is  perceived  both  in  India  and  in  the  global  market  as  the personification and King of Bollywood itself".)
 * For the claim that he "has been described as one of the most successful film stars in the world", there are many different sources calling him the world's biggest film star (not just Indian sources, but Western sources like LA Times, The Times etc.) and a survey concluding that 3.5 billion people in the world know him. Once again, this is no different than saying Michael Jackson is called King of Pop or Madonna is known as Queen of Pop. FrB.TG (talk) 16:46, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
 * FAC doesn't supersede BLP. If there are many different sources, then provide it but ascribe it to a particular media outlet, not "media" as a monolithic entity. --Hammersoft (talk) 17:25, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I didn't say it does, but for it to qualify for FA, many users obviously checked the prose and sources. The sources I named above are already there in the article. Just look through the "In the media" section. It's not just one single source having that opinion. It's either several prominent sources saying the same thing or one source confirming that it's a well-established consensus. When it's a single source making a claim of their own, it is properly attributed to that particular media outlet (like "In 2022, Khan was voted one of the 50 greatest actors of all time in a readers' poll by Empire"). FrB.TG (talk) 17:33, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
 * "Referred to in the media as the "Baadshah of Bollywood" and "King Khan"" isn't attributed to anything, much less a multitude of media sources. I hereby declare him to be the grandmaster of entry rugs. Should I add "Considered to be the grandmaster of entry rugs," to the article? "In terms of audience size and income, he has been described as one of the most successful film stars in the world." is likewise not attributed to anything. Neither statement is cited, and saying it explains it elsewhere doesn't work. Either it gets cited or it gets removed, per BLP. Wide reaching claims require wide reaching sources. A single source isn't going to cut it. The reader's poll by Empire is fine; single source, single attribution. --Hammersoft (talk) 18:02, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Once again, they are sourced in the "in the media" section, and per MOS:LEAD, we don't need to cite sources in the lead; doing so in the main body suffices, but I have now added them in the lead. One source in the article literally says that the media refers to him as "King Khan" so it is not just an opinion of one or two publications. I hope this suffices now.
