Arshad Warsi has been in the Hindi film industry since 1987 but it was only in 2003 that he won fame for his role in Munna Bhai M.B.B.S.. Since then he has won praise for his work in Lage Raho Munna Bhai, Ishqiya, Jolly LLB, Golmaal series and numerous other comedy films. This list presents all his film credits, awards and nominations. The previous nomination was archived. Skr15081997 (talk) 11:16, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Yashthepunisher
Done
  • I think only Kaash will suffice in the opening sentence.
Done
  • Are you sure Tere Mere Sapne was a box-office success?
Removed the info about its business.
  • I think circuit was more like a comic sidekick than a gangster.
Changed
  • Remove "he" from the 6th sentence.
Sorry, but I couldn't understand which one?
Did it myself. Yashthepunisher (talk) 14:54, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • "..and garnered critical acclaim for portraying a police officer in the crime drama Sehar (2005) earned him critical appreciation." This sentence is awkwardly written.
Corrected
  • There are too many instances in the opening para where the sentence starts with "He". You can replace one of them with "Warsi".
Replaced 1
  • "..reprised his role from Munna Bhai M.B.B.S. in the sequel". You can mention his character name instead of the prequel film.
Done
  • "comedy" should be removed while mentioning Golmaal Returns, as its already mentioned in its first film.
Done
  • Dedh Ishqiya should be mentioned in the lead. It was critically appreciated, despite being a box-office failure.
Mentioned
  • Publisher's name should be linked at there first appearance, and delinked elsewhere.

That's it from me. Yashthepunisher (talk) 12:20, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Yashthepunisher: linking them everywhere helps our readers, as they generally don't know on which citation a particular publisher has been linked for the first time. Thanks for your review.--Skr15081997 (talk) 13:49, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - I just thought linking them everywhere might border OVERLINK, but i agree with your reason. Overall its a nice list and meets the criteria. Yashthepunisher (talk) 14:58, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from FrB.TG
  • "and received nominations for Best Supporting Actor at the Filmfare, IIFA and Apsara Film Producers Guild Award ceremonies" – you could probably reword it as "and...for the Filmfare Award, IIFA Award and Producers Guild Award for Best Supporting Actor" but link their categories to the awards.
Rephrased
  • "He received his a second Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actor nomination" – get rid of the article before second.
Fixed
  • I see four unnecessary instances of "xxx-directed/produced".
I have mentioned only important producer/directors like Priyadarshan, Rajkumar Hirani, Amitabh Bachchan, Rohit Shetty and 2 others.
You could rephrase them in order to avoid repetition. -- Frankie talk 15:12, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I have removed 2 directors from the lead. I couldn't think of how to rephrase the remaining mentions.--Skr15081997 (talk) 10:20, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • "That same year, he played lead roles in the Raj Kaushal-directed mystery film" – just played the lead is enough, I think. Also, why is mystery film linked? Not something a reader might be unaware of.
Done
  • Link the first season of Bigg Boss in the lead.
Done
  • "he reteamed with Shetty for the sequel Golmaal Returns (2008), and played an intermittent explosive disorder sufferer" – what sequel? Also you could replace "sufferer" with something like "patient", maybe?
Fixed
  • The last line of the lead needs a source for the fact that his role in Dedh Ishqiya was appreciated.
  • Per WP:SLASH, for Vicky/Chetan, please add a footnote to specify whether he played a single or dual role in the film.
Added.

  • @FrB.TG: I think my recent edits would have resolved all of the above issues. Thanks for the review.--Skr15081997 (talk) 09:12, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support – all good now. I currently have an FAC here. Will appreciate it if you if leave some comments. -- Frankie talk 12:07, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
  • Features Films" -> "Feature films"
Done
  • What do the en dashes in the role column mean?
en dashes indicate that he didn't played a named character in Love Breakups Zindagi. He was the crew's part in the 1987 and 1993 films. "Unknown" indicates that his character's name couldn't be found.
  • Notes(s) -> Notes
Done
  • "For" seems like an odd column header. How about "Nominated work" or "Film" instead?
Replaced
  • Note a needs to end with a full stop.
Added

  • Frankie and A Thousand Doors, thanks to both of you.--Skr15081997 (talk) 09:53, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Source review

The sources are reliable and spot checks have shown the information claimed in the article is correct; no copyvios have been found.

  • FN5 should be pp. not p.
  • There are a couple of places (FN28, 29) where the article titles have spaces before colons. We are allowed to make minor cosmetic changes to titles, and the spaces should be removed.
