  • The hook is not interesting. The cast section is unsourced. There is one unsourced sentence in box office sub-section. RRD (talk) 13:57, 23 March 2019 (UTC)
  • @Royroydeb: I've added more alts and added refs to cast section and removed unsourced sentence in box office sub-section. ___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 13:14, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
I'd also like to mention that the article needs to be copyedited before it makes the main page, and have made a request over at WP:GOCE/R. I know that crore is linked in the article, but I'd also suggest that a conversion to USD be added to the article, if only for clarity (remember that not all readers are familiar with lakhs and crores). As the hook fact for ALTs 0 to 2 is no longer in the article, I've struck all of the above; @CAPTAIN MEDUSA: please suggest new hooks if possible, thanks.

I would wait till the copyedit is over. RRD (talk) 11:36, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
ALT1 still isn't a very good hook. And in any case, this can't continue until the copyediting is done, because right now there are several grammatical issues. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 04:11, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
The article looks better now but the hooks proposed here are still grammatically incorrect. Do you need assistance in fixing them? Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 12:03, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
@Narutolovehinata5: yes please. ___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 12:54, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
ALT1a ... that Nepalese Prime Minister Khadga Prasad Oli praised the 2019 sports drama Captain for "delivering patriotism"?
Honestly I don't find the hook or the hook fact spectacular, but I'll let another reviewer take a look at this. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 13:04, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
  • This is probably worth giving a second look. Requesting a new reviewer. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 12:39, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
  • ALT1a is a cute hook. It reminds me of President Donald Trump commenting on everything on his Twitter account. The hook ref is verified and cited inline. But I have added one tag to the cast list, where the name of the character is not provided. Yoninah (talk) 14:02, 17 May 2019 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah: I could not find the cast member's character, on film reviews or film websites.___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 11:41, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
  • That's surprising, considering she is one of the lead actresses. I guess you should comment her out until after the DYK runs. I tweaked ALT1a. Yoninah (talk) 18:18, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah: I added the lead actress character. I found it after looking around for while. ___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 12:25, 19 May 2019 (UTC)
  • That's great! Here is a full review: New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen in online sources. ALT1a hook ref verified and cited inline. Image of film poster is fair use. QPQ done. ALT1a good to go. Yoninah (talk) 13:21, 19 May 2019 (UTC)
