Gunaa

Srivin, can you help me find out references regarding the film and store them in this link here? I have collected a few. — Ssven2 speak 2 me 04:37, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Sure bro, but most of the references you had collected for Guna in your page has already added in the article myself, please check it. Srivin (talk) 05:21, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

A few advises

While I appreciate your editing style, there are certain things I always wanted to tell you:

That's it for now. Happy editing! Kailash29792 (talk) 13:01, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Thanks, will surely take care of these aspects. Srivin (talk) 13:10, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Another advise. Please don't fill in bare URLs. Write the references like how I have done for my GAs.

For example, the references should be like this: Pillai, Sreedhar (3 June 2005). "Back with a bang !". The Hindu. Archived from the original on 26 September 2014. Retrieved 26 September 2014. Click on the "edit" button to see how it looks like. — Ssven2 speak 2 me 08:15, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

Thanks, but i don't have much patience to fill the references but will definitely try. Srivin (talk) 08:20, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
As for Apoorva Raagangal let Rajini be known by his full name Rajinikanth as per the other GAs.  Ssven2 speak 2 me 08:26, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
Thank you for the suggestion definitely such suggestions are helpful for wiki users like me. Srivin (talk) 08:51, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

  The Special Barnstar
For helping me search references on Tamil films. :) — Ssven2 speak 2 me 08:29, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
Thank u so much, This is the second barnstar which i have received. Srivin (talk) 08:53, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

Mudhalvan

Hi, can you expand the Kejriwal/Mudhalvan connections using this source? And also remember that every SFN requires the year of the book published. Please read Template:sfn to know more. Kailash29792 (talk) 07:34, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

User page

Now that your user page has been created, I think you can store your barnstars over there. Kailash29792 (talk) 16:19, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Sure, will post it. Srivin (talk) 16:26, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Racha

Are you sure myfirstshow.com is a RS?   Pavanjandhyala (talk) 10:59, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

I thought it is a RS, since i could not get a good source about the film's satellite rights. Srivin (talk) 11:04, 2 February 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for your help in Mayabazar   Pavanjandhyala (talk) 15:05, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

Mayabazar

Thanks for the help bro. You and Kailash29792 together helped me making the soundtrack section a much better one.   Pavanjandhyala (talk) 10:02, 15 February 2015 (UTC)

Gabbar Singh

Your work is impressive. I suggest a few suggestions regarding this article which may help you.

  • In the infobox, also mention the film's distributor share along with the gross.
  • Expand Critical Reception. And find much reliable sources for the BO section.
  • Archive the references so as to ensure that there are no dead links.
  • Change the reference style.

Ex: "Police officers angry with Gabbar Singh". The Times of India. to — Pasupulate, Karthik (11 May 2012) "Police officers angry with Gabbar Singh" The Times of India. Archived from the original on (the date you archived the link). Retrieved (accessdate).

  • Get the article copy edited by someone. members of GOCE like Onel5969 and Lstanley1979 can help you in doing that. It helps you to overcome minor prose issues and others which may damage the chances of passing GA.

Apart from these, if any, will be suggested by the reviewer during the GAR process. Thank you. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 09:34, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

Thank u bro, but the problem is i am not well versed in box office collections i am confused which one is right and wrong. But i will follow the things which you have mentioned. Srivin (talk) 09:39, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
Take the help of Ssven2. He, by his own admission, is a fan of PK and may help you. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 09:47, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
Thank u, will definitely consult him. Srivin (talk) 09:49, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
One thing. Just ask him, that's all! He is struggling hard to make Enthiran a FA and things are not as smooth as he expects there. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 09:55, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
Sure Srivin (talk) 09:56, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
I said you to ask to help you to find RS for BO sections, not to ask help in expanding the article. I think you got confused. Didn't you?   Pavanjandhyala (talk) 13:16, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

Article name

Hi Srivin,

I just moved your article "Jagannaath @ K.P.Jagan" to K.P. Jagan, and created a redirect at Jagannaath. When the subject of an article can be referred to by more than one name, we should not have both names in the article. I'm also not sure what the significance of the @ character is - I couldn't see it used in any of the news articles that I read from the references list.

Another thing: the first reference in the article seems to be a dead link now.

Best regards, --Slashme (talk) 12:40, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Kalathur Kannamma

Hi, I have mailed you some information on Kalathur Kannamma from the pages of AVM 60 Cinema. Use the best of them. Kailash29792 (talk) 17:08, 30 April 2015 (UTC)

Sorry for the late reply, thanks for sending it i will make use of it, actually i was busy with my exams so i didn't visit wiki for past 1 week. Srivin (talk) 05:05, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

 

For making Mayabazar better with the recent addition from The Hindu. The article looks much better now, especially Reddy's work on the film's negative length. For this valuable help, i want to gift you this.

Pavanjandhyala (talk) 06:05, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Thank you bro for gifting this, after reading this article i felt this one was reliable enough to expand it. Srivin (talk) 09:02, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
With the source you gave, the article's shape and content have been changed considerably. Tell your opinion after watching it. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 06:20, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Peer review/Mayabazar/archive1

If not for your help that day, Mayabazar could not have come to the status which it currently enjoys and i shall be thankful to you for that. I have opened the peer review for it today. Feel free to leave comments.   Pavanjandhyala (talk) 07:24, 3 June 2015 (UTC)

Thank you bro, it's my pleasure. I will surely leave my comments. Srivin (talk) 07:27, 3 June 2015 (UTC)

I sincerely appreciate your efforts to develop the articles Mayabazar, Pathala Bhairavi and Missamma and i shall be thankful to you for that.   However, please remember that the source used - Telugucinema.com is not a reliable source. I know that Sify copied content from it in the past, but still it fails to be notified as a reliable source. Hence i request you to refrain from using it again in the future. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 15:23, 12 June 2015 (UTC)

Ok bro i will not use but i thought it was reliable source since the site has covered information about old films. Srivin (talk) 04:08, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

Gabbar Singh

Hi Srivin. A long time indeed has passed since my last visit here. Hope you are doing well. Coming to the point, i have begun working on Sardaar Gabbar Singh today which happens to be the sequel of Gabbar Singh. I strongly remember you wanted to bring Gabbar Singh to GA-status. What is the progress? Pavanjandhyala (talk) 12:21, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Very happy to see you after a long time bro, For the past 1 month, i have been out of station to visit my relatives. Anyways I will start the editing work as usual. Thank u for taking ur own time for writing the message on my talk page.Srivin (talk) 14:27, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
You're welcome, and are expected to do it carefully. We do not have a deadline here, but i think i should remind you about the same. Anyways, my work on Sardaar Gabbar Singh is nearing completion. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 15:02, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Refill

For easily filling up references, there is a tool called User:Zhaofeng Li/RefToggle. You can add this to User:Srivin/common.js.  — Ssven2 Speak 2 me 05:08, 24 September 2015 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

  The Barnstar of Diligence
For all the work you've been doing in the recent past related to referencing, categories, external linking etc. You surely deserve this.   Pavanjandhyala (talk) 14:12, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

Thank you so much for the star, even though I did not do anything for any article to make it GA, but I am very much content with the edits which I had done so far. Srivin (talk) 14:15, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

I too am waiting to see you bring an article to GA status. And looks like you've dropped Gabbar Singh. Didn't you?   Pavanjandhyala (talk) 17:05, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

Thiruvilaiyadal

Thank you for the references regarding the film in the "In popular culture" section. I also remember a scene where Vadivelu sings "Isai Thamizh" when Radha Ravi (I think it was Radha Ravi) blesses him and his wife (or girlfriend, I do not remember that part) and accepts their union. Can you find out the name of the film where the scene takes place. No hurry. Thank you. Thamizhan1994 (Appo Pesu) 06:45, 13 October 2015 (UTC)

Hello bro, Its from Vanna Thamizh Pattu, here is the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmJUBB5Ntsc. Srivin (talk) 14:17, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
Thank you very much, Srivin. I will add it to the article immediately. Thamizhan1994 (Appo Pesu) 14:51, 13 October 2015 (UTC)

Mullum Malarum

This source appears to have a lot of useful information. Due to my difficulty in reading Tamil, you see what useful details can be added from it. Cite the source as below:-

GA

You just cant stop working on bringing an article to GA status citing "I can't do like the way you do" and "I too commit mistakes". So you think that i am a very good writer? No. If everyone thinks like you, Ssven2 who began writing very improperly, wouldn't have become such a near-perfect writer and contributor. I suggest you to honestly contribute to the article with an aim of making it a GA. GOCE copy-editors shall help you by rectifying all the mistakes you made from top to bottom. There are friendly stalkers who help you without your request to help (Ssven2 for example). GA reviewers will help you, they aren't the descendants of Adolf Hitler in terms of dictating and cruelty. All you have to do is make it a better, near-complete article. I want to see Devadasu as your GAN. Rest is your call. Yours friendly, Pavanjandhyala (talk) 09:16, 24 October 2015 (UTC)

thank you for your kind words I will definitely do it. Srivin (talk) 12:45, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
At Kaliash's talk page, i was given a few sources to develop the article. Here are they : Pride of Tamil cinema, Theodore Baskaran page 91-92, Rajadhyaksha and Willemen, Cinegoer and Idlebrain. Use them to the fullest. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 12:53, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
Definitely and BTW sorry for the comments "I can't do like the way you do" and "I too commit mistakes". Srivin (talk) 14:54, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
Well, convey that sorry properly by making the article a GA, your first GA.   And, try to find more information from here. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 02:08, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
Srivin, it is best to start from scratch in your sandbox and move the content you added to the main article. It is also best to do it section-wise (eg: "Production" section first, "Music"/"Soundtrack" next, "Release" and "Reception" sections, "Legacy" sections and lastly the Plot and Lead.) That is how I go about my GAs. :) Thamizhan1994 (அப்போ பேசு) 04:32, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
I too followed the same pattern for most of my GAs. If you find more info about the film's music, name it as "Music" instead of "Soundtrack". Pavanjandhyala (talk) 04:39, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
Pages from The Best of Tamil Cinema (2011) by Dhananjayan. And when I searched "Devadasu" in The Times of India's epaper archive site, I found these. Kailash29792 (talk) 10:05, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

Thank you so much bro, actually for us Deepawali was in previous day in Tamilnadu. Anyways I also convey my Deepawali wishes to you. Srivin (talk) 04:02, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
Oh! That was why Kailash, Ssven2 and Vensatry were wished yesterday itself. Anyways, thanks for the wishes and i hope Devadasu will be ready for a GAN soon. After completing your work, submit a request here. It will take time, but the wait is always the worth. Also, be patient in answering when the copy-editors pose the questions (since they are mostly non-Indian or lack the knowledge about India). Take care!

Devadasu (1953 film)

Hello, Srivin -- I have just finished copy-editing Devadasu (1953 film). I added two "clarification needed" tags with hidden notes to editors. After you feel you have clarified what needs to be clarified, you can remove the tags and hidden notes. I also noticed that the female lead character's name was sometimes spelled "Parvathi" and sometimes "Parvati". For consistency, I changed them all to "Parvati". I have no preference, so if you would like them to be "Parvathi", I'd be glad to change them all to that spelling, or you can do it, whichever you prefer. Just let me know. Also let me know if you need any further help with the article. Corinne (talk) 01:22, 25 November 2015 (UTC)

Since Devadasu's c/e is over, are you willing to make it a GA yet? Just asking. Kailash29792 (talk) 09:06, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
Dont you think the quote in the box and the last paragraph contain the same information? Pavanjandhyala (talk) 11:46, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
Kailash29792&Pavanjandhyala: I would be happy if the article becomes GA. Actually the quote was meant to show that ANR got typecasted and became synonymous with this character in his career. Srivin (talk) 13:14, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
Then go ahead and nominate it after clarifying Corinne's doubts. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 13:17, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
Srivin, read here how to nominate an article for GA: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Good_article_nominations/Instructions. Kailash29792 (talk) 14:37, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

Hmm. From "I can't do like the way you do" and "I too commit mistakes" to "Hope I would maintain this in future doing for other articles". All because of a green plus sign. What a drastic change!   Pavanjandhyala (talk) 08:49, 28 December 2015 (UTC)
