Links edit

  • All links are working fine (no dead links).
  • Link # 17 is from enilandbollywood.com which is not a reliable source.
Fixed - same text, better source BollyJeff || talk 16:12, 17 December 2011 (UTC)Reply


  • Well written.
- the prose is clear and concise and the spelling and grammar are correct. Generally very well written, nice rhymn to the sentences, generaly easy to read though the sentence Films like this that are designed to appeal to the diaspora have stories involving foreign locations, but not just for item numbers. somehow bothers me.
- Respects copyright laws. The duplication detector show a reasonably low number of matches.
- It complies with the WP:MOS for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation. Although the lead should probably include some portion about the awards/ critical reception.
I made some improvements here. BollyJeff || talk 02:58, 20 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
My two cents

This is very well written. I am impressed. A pleasure to read. Little copy editing for me to do. MathewTownsend (talk) 03:53, 21 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

  • Lead section
  • Hindi name should be in italics and both the names in brackets in bold. ASHUIND 05:48, 21 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
You sure? I don't see this in any other Indian film GA and FA articles. Only the English title is italic, and neither are bold. BollyJeff || talk 14:36, 21 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
  • Soundtrack
Done. BollyJeff || talk 14:36, 21 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
  • Awards
  • Here the first line reads "Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge is tied for second place for the most number of Filmfare awards going to a single film with 10" but it is not mentioned with which film is it tied with. ASHUIND 05:48, 21 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
Done. BollyJeff || talk 14:36, 21 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Just a concern

  • Every award won is given a reference in the article. Here I don't see a single reference for any win. ASHUIND 05:48, 21 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
Citation added. I may add some more later, but the citations should already be in the respective award articles. BollyJeff || talk 15:40, 21 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
