Comments from Kailash29792

 * Asin is a former Indian actress who is known for her work in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi language films" - "language" may be removed since it is understood. Also, why did suggest "Indian former actress" and revert to "former Indian actress", even though he said it's because Asin is still Indian?
 * "Former Indian actress" makes it sound like she's a former Indian, which obviously isn't the case -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:43, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Asin made her debut in the Tamil film industry in the 2004 action sports drama film M. Kumaran Son of Mahalakshmi, a critical and commercial success. - change to Asin made her debut in Tamil cinema in the 2004 sports drama film M. Kumaran Son of Mahalakshmi, a critical and commercial success.


 * She then played the lead female roles in many commercially successful films, the most notable being the action film Sivakasi (2005), the dramatic thriller Varalaru (2006), the action thriller Pokkiri (2007), the romantic drama Vel (2008) and Dasavathaaram (2008), which established herself as the leading actress of Tamil cinema. you can simply say "the female lead in many commercially successful films". Also, Vel was in the action genre rather than romance (or maybe masala, which mixes various genres, but romance was certainly not the main one). Conclude this sentence with "a leading actress of Tamil cinema".
 * Made changes to Vel genre. We need to check a or the with.
 * I'm sure she was not leading actress at the time. That's why I suggested a instead of the. Kailash29792  (talk)  16:12, 25 September 2020 (UTC)


 * Though it received mixed reviews, her role as a Brahmin girl from Chidambaram in Dasavathaaram earned her a Vijay Award for Best Actress [a] nomination. change to Though Dasavathaaram received mixed reviews, her role as a Brahmin girl from Chidambaram earned her a Vijay Award for Best Actress nomination. I don't think you need a footnote describing what a Vijay Award is.
 * A person from USA/ Europe wouldn't know about Vijay Award, so just thought I should put a note.
 * We have wikilinks for that part. Tbh, they wouldn't know about Filmfare either.--Ab207 (talk) 15:06, 25 September 2020 (UTC)


 * She later played the female lead in musical drama film London Dreams (2011), an ensemble cast film which proved to be financially unsuccessful and received mixed reviews from critics. Change to She later played the female lead in the musical drama London Dreams (2011), which proved to be financially unsuccessful and received mixed reviews from critics. Since it has only three leads (Salman Khan, Ajay Devgn and Asin), I don't think ensemble applies here.


 * Asin found further success in romantic comedy Ready (2011), in which she co-starred alongside Salman Khan. The film was a major hit at the box office, collecting ₹1.84 billion (US$26 million) worldwide. Change to "box office success". Also, when Salman is not mentioned for London Dreams, why is he mentioned here?
 * Asin played lead role for opposite Salman inReady. For London Dream she played leading lady opposite Ajay Devgan.


 * In 2012, Asin first starred in multistarrer comedy Housefull 2, which collected more than ₹1 billion. She then featured in comedies Bol Bachchan (2012) and Khiladi 786 (2012), which were also commercially successful with both grossing over ₹1 billion. Try merging both sentences into one since all three films were released in 2012, were action comedies, and grossed over ₹1 billion each. -- Kailash29792 (talk)  17:40, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Will be glad if you suggest a sentence please.
 * How about this? In 2012, Asin starred in the action comedies Housefull 2, Bol Bachchan and Khiladi 786, all of which were commercially successful, grossing over ₹1 billion each. Place the refs at the end of the sentence. Also seeking input from others in this FLC about this sentence. Kailash29792 (talk)  16:12, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks.
 * Thank you for solving all these comments. Also, please do NOT use the publisher field for websites. Use website or work instead. All the Times of India refs must have The Times of India under work, and The Times Group under publisher. Because the publisher field is for the work's parent company. Kailash29792 (talk)  05:25, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I have added ref in manner you have advised here but some of them have been done by Economic Times, Entertainment Times etc. As a result I had to mention it in other way round. Please provide a suggestion what to include under work, publisher and agency in such case.-- 25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ☣✅ 14:42, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for addressing them. Just a few more comments left: find a better source than IndiaGlitz (remove if it is redundant), and remove the awards mentioned in the table (this is because we already have List of awards and nominations received by Asin). Instead, mention any notable award in the lead section with source(s). After that this will have my support. Kailash29792 (talk)  09:13, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Filmfare nominations are not that significant to mention, in my view.--Ab207 (talk) 18:19, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I have actually referred Deepika Padukone filmography, Shilpa Shetty filmography, Kareena Kapoor filmography, Vidya Balan filmography. Actually it won't be bad if we mention awards as it could give a reader quick idea that actress had been nominated or won so and so awards. Thoughts  ?
 * Go ahead, but make sure all award statements are sourced, either in the lead section or the table. Kailash29792 (talk)  15:30, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I have removed awards part in notes. To be honest, I don't feel too that Filmfare nominations are having really any significant. Rather I have a added a section See also, there I have added List of awards and nominations received by Asin. Let me know what you think.-- 25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ☣✅ 07:25, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Support: All my comments have been addressed. Please consider submitting future articles/lists at the GOCE before nominating them. Kailash29792 (talk)  08:34, 3 October 2020 (UTC)

Comments from TamilMirchi

 * "earned her a Vijay Award for Best Actress nomination" is unsourced.
 * Not able to find one so have replaced the sentence.


 * "Her only release of 2015 was the romantic comedy All Is Well." is unsourced
 * ✅ mentioned in table already. Adding source to each and every sentence seems strange. Anyway have added one.


 * Replace all Bollywood Hungama and Filmibeat sources with reliable sources.
 * Yes, Filmibeat must be replaced. However, Bollywood Hungama passes WP:RS. Kailash29792</b> (talk)  16:30, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Yup. I have tried to fix it all. Let me know if something is missing.-- 25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ☣✅ 14:42, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , has copied many badly formatted references from other articles. I hope you can fix/verify them. -- <b style="color: black;">Kailash29792</b>  (talk)  18:27, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Just trying to help. Based on the comments below by Cowlibob, references are needed that state the name of the character. Since help was needed for the South Indian films, reviews were added.TamilMirchi (talk) 19:06, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Appreciate your help mate. I am not so good with respect to South Indian Cinema.-- 25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ☣✅ 12:07, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Source review - Pass

 * There's somewhere in the MOS that dictates titles shouldn't be all caps (ref 2)
 * Some publishers are linked multiple times elsewhere but sometimes not linked – go through and standardize them (there isn't too many)
 * Pass for source review. Since the changes were so minor I went through and did them myself real quick. Aza24 (talk) 18:45, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Checked for reliability, since Rotten Tomatoes is only used once for basic statistical information, I think it's fine, though I'm not well versed in the Rotten Tomatoes policy. Aza24 (talk) 18:46, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
