Zinta's team

I'd mention it, certainly. But if she hasn't personally been involved in a significant way with the management of the team that has regularly received reliable coverage, considering the recentness of the story, I wouldn't necessarily give much more than you proposed.

The extant three sentences might be mergable into two, though. Maybe something like, "In 2008, Zinta, Ness Wadia, and a group of others purchased the Mohali Twenty20 football team of the Indian Premiere League for $76 million dollars. They have since renamed the team Kings XI Punjub."

And I wouldn't say your previous draft was at all bad, but you're probably right in thinking that this article, given all that's happened, is probably going to be scrutinized very closely by the FA people. John Carter (talk) 16:08, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

If you mean the infobox image, I think it's beautiful. My only reservation regarding your phrasing would be the word "the", which can be seen as indicating that she is the sole owner of the team. Maybe changing that to "one of the owners" would be preferable. Yeah, it is kind of redundant, but it might read strange to some if we referred to a group of people as "the owner". John Carter (talk) 16:32, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

I too think that the 2 sentences on the IPL team is adequate, as of now. As IPL continues, and she engages herself more in the game, more sentences, and even a new subsection may be needed.--Dwaipayan (talk) 16:46, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

The word "won" might read a bit strange. Was there some sort of contest prior to the purchase that was "winnable"? If not, then maybe just "acquired" or "got" might be preferable. John Carter (talk) 17:10, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Kaash

Thats brilliant Shahid! Well done!!! Developed so quickly too! You should do this more often!!! I'm feeling very lethargic today so won't be editing again. I;ve just been reading the Howard Hughes and related articles after seeing the Aviator again last night. What an amazing character!! I wonder just how many Hollywood classic starlets he bedded! Kate Beckinsale I think is one of the best looking actresses around today. She's really got that classic Hollywood look hasn't she ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 14:23, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Oh Blanchett is an amazing actress definately one of the best. She is very believable as Elizabeth. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 14:38, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Perhaps Romi spent too much time on the set in Utah with John Wayne and co?? Just kidding. great article! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 14:42, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Well I'm a little more refreshed now. Its like somebody has cut off my energy supply or something! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 16:54, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Go for it! Could you check the Koena Mitra article. I think she looks about 27 or 28 1985 birthdate seems wrong. In the "factfile it says 1980 which would be about right I think. Could you check this out cheers ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 17:15, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

I'm in the middle of reordering Dharmendra's filmo at present. Its been backwards for too long! At least if it is in normal order it will be a start ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 19:30, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

New message

Yeah.. I am busy... I start work this week so I won't be on Wikipedia that often, though I will try to make an attempt to come on as often as possible. OMG!! life is so stressful!!! LOL.. So how are you these days??? Busy editing I see.. eh?? =) Anyways, wish you all the best on Zinta's FAC. Keep up the good work my friend!! You're truly an inspiration for us!! Regards --Bollywood Dreamz ^Talk 18:34, 21 April 2008

Shahid, if you are able to catch Tashan this weekend, let me know if it is good!! I am anxiously waiting to watch the movie. --Bollywood Dreamz ^Talk 18:43, 21 April 2008

Thanks!! ;) --Bollywood Dreamz ^Talk 16:33, 23 April 2008

Yeah, I saw it two weeks back!!! The film was not bad!!! Anyways, you going to watch Tashan? The reviews are quite mixed, ranging from excellent to bad. --Bollywood Dreamz ^Talk 18:35, 25 April 2008

I was looking through the "First Day First Show" responses from different sites, with the audience reactions being really mixed. The critics have severely criticized the movie, with the exception of a few. Out of the cast, Kumar & [Kareena] Kapoor have walked away with most of the accolades, with [Anil] Kapoor not being far behind. I really feel sorry for Khan, as he has received so much, I repeat so much criticism. Many of them were like what did he see in the role... LOL.. Anyways, just like you, I still want to watch the film, and then I will decide for myself. As for the reviews, most of them are negative.. LOL.. For Kapoor's page, we are only allowed to use reviews from reliable sources... but for Tashan's page... will be adding reviews from non-rs too?? --Bollywood Dreamz ^Talk 01:37, 26 April 2008

I understand your concern Shahid!!! LOL... Thanks! So how are you doing these days?? You are also not making that many edits these days... ;) --Bollywood Dreamz ^Talk 03:10, 30 April 2008

From Sept 07 to April 08, I was busy with University. Now that University is done, I am busy working. OMG, life can be so stressful!!! LOL. Yes, I have seen Tashan. The film was not as bad as people projected it to be but it was definitely below my expectations. I was expecting something like Dhoom 2. Have you seen it?? --Bollywood Dreamz ^Talk 16:53, 30 April 2008

Suggestion

Dude, your article has been waiting for a year and a half at LOCE? That's not cool. Go to Scartol's or Finetooth's talk pages and ask them specifically to copy edit the article for you. Both of them have edited very long articles that were FACs and that passed for me. Cry - be pathetic, but be very nice. Tell them you will owe them a huge favor, whatever it may be. Or I could owe it (like I could do anything but stuff an article they want stuffed). Just a suggestion. It's FAC time, so there is no more pride, only scraping the ground, doing whatever it takes to get your article passed. --Moni3 (talk) 20:55, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

1500+ Zinta edits

I am absolutely astonished that you;ve edited Zinta over 1500 times. I'm surprised I am third too with 173 edits. How on earth can you edit one article 1500 times LOL ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 11:01, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Ah I don't like those tool register things -they reveal too much about us lol!! Good luck with the candidacy anyway. People will find all sorts of things at FA'S won't they. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 11:21, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

I have no idea how I have sent 300 more messages to you that vice versa? Perhaps it is because often I leave a essage and then suddenly remember something else to add to it ends up reading as 3 messages?? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 11:26, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Check out Cristiana Frixione. Gorgeous! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 11:42, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

My god shes a honey. So classic looking. In an orange bikini. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 11:54, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

I know. Check out Miss Latinas. Now I wish I could encounter those by a pool on holiday lol!!! I remember the time I was tried to pull one of the Watling twins at a nightclub in Cardiff. Both already had boyfriends lol who were there. I managed to get speaking to Sadie and I feel pretty confident she liked me too, but obviously I couldn't continue when her boyfriend came back with drinks!!! I went to school with them in primary school but didn't see them again until they were about 19. They even tried entering the Miss Wales contest. See them here. Sadie's boyfriend was a drip too and as dull as dish water! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 12:08, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Well it was about 5 years ago and its not as if they got through to the (international) finals or anyting. Now if I had pulled her then it would be something to talk about lol!! What she saw in him I don't know. There really aren't too many who look like they do around here! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 12:19, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

I also very much like Al Fayed's daughter Camilla. She is Egyptian-Finnish I think. And of course that family has a zillion dollars. I've seen a picture of her in a cobalt blue dress and my o my shes a stunner ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 12:55, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

What do you think? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 21:48, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Nununo. Camilla Al Fayed. Haven't seen the twins in years, mentioned them to my mum yesterday who said she served Anna (my mum works in the post office) a few weeks ago. They are doing normal jobs. I'm asking whether you think Camilla Al Fayed is attractive lol ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 11:56, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Yeah I didn't say she is on par with Bipasha or anything but I find her attractive. Theres not too many turning out at the FA yet is there!!! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 12:37, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

The thing is you publicize it and then you get accused of "canvassing". I wonder if it up to Sarvagnya's standards yet. (Meaning is every sentence copied lol) ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 12:45, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Its probably good enough already, I'd try to fill out the music section a bit with nhotes on writing. I'm currently developing Turkish cinema a bit. I saw a Turkish film back in 1995 when I was in Alanya and there are some classic Turkish art films, really dramatic stuff. Watching the belly dancers was good fun! I'm going to try to add all the Golden Orange award winners. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 15:15, 23 April 2008 (UTC) Not really -only something which you'd probably think is trivial in that Vinod Khanna turned down the lead role because Dimple was in it (to respect her husband) ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 15:24, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

That would be OK I think although you'd probably need to discuss the production side of it a little more ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 15:38, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Go for it! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 16:19, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

I've rewritten it a bit for you hope you don't mind. Looks fine to me ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 16:37, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Well yes even better now. Shame there isn't some screenshots or album covers available but given the lack of info available I think you done pretty well.. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 16:59, 23 April 2008 (UTC) Dunno mate should be fine. You should check out some of my new Turkish film articles. See Beş Vakit and Big Man, Little Love. Somersault in a Coffin is one of the coolest names for a film I've seen ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 17:20, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Yes as with other cinemas I love those melodramas and art films. Some of the Turkish films remind me of Kiarostami. I added about ten films so far. We now have about 65 films. I'll aim to put about 200 odd in that category in the next few weeks, Turkish and Greek cinema in my mind has long been one of the least developed areas of film and they are both highly productive industries with many admirable films. I think I'll aim to get the most acclaimed or successful films onto here, fill in some gaps. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 17:48, 23 April 2008 (UTC) Oh yeah India in the UK is known for their huge passion for Bollywood films and cricket. They "churn" out those films!! Israel also has some good films which may need starting. I;ve seen some romantic Egyptian films from the 1950s starring Omar Sharif such as Ard al-Salam before he hit the big time in western cinema and they really are rather good ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 18:08, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Not all of it no but I've seen clips of it. Chris Bisson who was in Corrie was in it. The Salman khan look alike was also in corrie lol! Hey I'll speak later I'm off for a bit! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 18:15, 23 April 2008 (UTC) Have you heard of Jafar Panahi? An amazing film director -he's like the Abbas No.2 lol ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 21:26, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Sheeks I;ve notched up over 1000 edits today sorting out Brazil. Brazil is like a wiki hole in the ozone layer. It is a nightmare country to cover on wikipedia ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 20:37, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Yes I'm very tired!!! I'll be getting RSI!! I've fixed about 75% of them today anyway. Then the infoboxes and proper maps have to be added and also they have to be project tagged and then of course some provinces have hundreds of missing districts -I think you were right soon enough this will amass to over 200,000 but it is basic structural work that really needs doing as a foundation which after 7 years of wikipedia is pretty appalling that its taken so long to sort out. The uneven coverage is exemplified by Brazil on here. It makes wikipedia look like a joke as only on the surface are there good articles, the rest are 99% shocking!! I'm surprised you haven't got nearer 20,000 edits by now. Did you forget to change the display? In fact I would have estimated you have about 25,000 edits if I was to hazard a guess. What is your current edit count now? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 22:13, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Keep people guessing huh? I would have thought you would be on at least 20,000 already!! Well its not really important, all of your work and edits are much appreciated! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 22:21, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Not at all mate as I said above every edit counts and you do a lot of important work not only developing Bollywood articles to FA standard!! but reverting those crappy idiotic edits by IP'S and kids. Best wishes, I miss Pa7 don't you? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 22:25, 24 April 2008 (UTC) LOL about 700 edits today so far -about 2000 in just a few hours! I;ve only got Sao Paulo and Rio Grande do Sul states to reorganize now and then the categorical change is done! Category:Cities in Brazil incidentally had over 1000 articles in it first thing yesterday! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 14:40, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

Zinta in cover

"Zinta was the first Indian actress to be featured on the cover of the first Indian issue of the Marie Claire magazine." Compare this sentence with "Zinta was featured on the cover of the first Indian issue of the Marie Claire magazine".

The first sentence is MoS-wise very bad—two "first"s. That's why I edited the sentence. At least, remove the second "first", so that the sentence would be "Zinta was the first indian actress to be featured on teh cover of the Indian edition/issue of Marie Claire.--Dwaipayan (talk) 13:36, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Did not know anything about the magazine. Just now saw its wiki entry. Does not seem to be a big deal. IMO, this trivia can be removed.--Dwaipayan (talk) 13:44, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

umm...I also don't think she can be considered as a columnist.--Dwaipayan (talk) 15:49, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

re:CDI

Hi there! Thanks for the nice feedback. Don't worry about it - if you have a chance to clean up the article at another point go ahead but otherwise I know you are working on a few other articles. I just thought I'd see what I could do with the production section since I didn't like the tag there. Anyway, thanks again, -Classicfilms (talk) 18:42, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Wikitable

Oops! I mainly hang around music-related articles incl. discographies where wikitables are standard. Odd this... indopug (talk) 13:53, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Zinta

Sorry, I had been rather busy assessing articles for the past day or two, and didn't review my watchlist that much. "Acting" is probably better than "being an actress", as it's a bit shorter. Regarding the question I would definitely say "film actress" rather than just "actress" first, to help differentiate between film acting and stage acting, both of which count as acting. Regarding the was/is question, that's more or less dependent on what the subject has said. If she's ever said she's "given up" on the stage, then "is" would be inappropriate, as she has said she will not return to the stage. If she's said she likes stage performing and hopes to continue, than "is" is definitely called for. If no such statement either way has been made, than I'd go for "is" until such a statement is made one way or another. You would probably know the details to that better than me, though. John Carter (talk) 15:24, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

The specific phrasing you proposed gives the impression that the stage work isn't acting. Maybe something like "In addition to acting in films, Zinta has written a series of popular columns for BBC News Online South Asia, and is also a regular stage performer." Granted, the word "also" might be unnecessary, but it might help with the undefinable "flow" a little too; it probably isn't absolutely necessary, though. John Carter (talk) 16:09, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

If that's the case, and I assume it is, then you might want to expand that section to say that more clearly somewhere in the article. Right now, the article doesn't specificy what the stage work is, unfortunately. Maybe your phrasing would be the best way to go, with some content added to the "Stage performances" section to more clearly indicate the nature of the stage performances. John Carter (talk) 16:25, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

The image is a bit over the top, but it also gets across the idea that the stage shows aren't dramatic reenactments very well. I'd probably use it. John Carter (talk) 17:08, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Your call. Personally, my questions would be whether, given the subject's age, her business interests might expand beyond the team at some point. If that were to happen, then I would think retitling it "Business interests" would make most sense. For what we have right now, maybe "Cricket team ownership" might work best. Also, any ideas on how you want to address the newer comments on the FAC page? John Carter (talk) 13:34, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Dreams may come true

Shahid I had the most AMAZING! dream last night and it has given me an inspiration to write a novel. Lets just say locations include a salvage operation of the coast of Chios in an underwater cave which lay along the route that Paul the Apostle made to Malta, and an excavation in a church just outside Celje in SLovenia. It really was one of those inspiring dreams you have from time to time. Every night for me I have the most creative dreams imagniable -how my mind ever thinks of these I don't know but this was something special - I wish I could document it and get it into writing. If I could remember it all and put it into writing, who knows I could concentrate on being a writer ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 08:17, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

I don't know - I think it is definately something I should pursue. Even as a little boy of about 7 I was writing stories inspired by the Enid Blyton and Hardy Boys books. I won prizes at school for creative writing competitions too. I had some poems published too in some Wales young poets thing as well when I was about 14 which published the poetry of teenagers across Wales in a single book. Everyone at school always said I should be a writer and I had a very vivid imagination. I would be following in the footsteps of many people in my family but writing novels takes a great deal of time as ther eis so many possibilities of writing which takes years of practice. But my ideas are very much using elements of world cultures and classic art and architectural locations- you know like I work on on wikipedia and writing the coolest book I can using such locations and elements. Kind of like a Tomb Raider in a book but much more complex and encyclopedic ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 09:57, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

LOL its funny that when I sleep my mind seems to be far more active than when I'm awake. Its allows my mind to wander and discover new things. The brain is an amazing thing isn't it. The only thing is I tend to forget most dreams I have immediately! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 10:06, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Cool! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 10:24, 26 April 2008 (UTC) Howz Category:Cities, towns and villages in Iran for a rigid category structure!! I've added an infobox and map to every place up until Hamadan province too so far! Surprisingly some of the articles are already quite good and have photos! I'm making good progress see Category:Cities by country. Those with villages have been edited by me. By the end of it every world city from every country in the world will undergo change and it will be ready to add every town in every country onto here! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 18:03, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

My back is yes!! Next stage will be to develop places in Brazil so they look like Cruzeiro do Sul, Acre minimum with the infobox map and muncip locator and hopefully images! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 19:29, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

I know but there is so much needing doing at shock sub stub level to make important articles even a worthy stub that I have little time to sit down and write a single article. Very few people seem to care about other countries in the world other than the one they live in on here so these articles end up being crap. I on the other hand think of the world from a neutral point as if it were a 3D map where each country should be receiving even coverage. It is an encyclopedia so most should be half decent articles and not neglected sub stubs like we have on here in the thousands. The only way to address this is to begin to do something about , which unfortunately takes up most of my editing time. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 19:38, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Just ran into some trobule though over a single naming convention!! I'm off now. Best regards! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 21:58, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Amitabh

Judging by the edit conflict a few minutes ago where I lost some work I gather you've noticed my changes to Amitabh. It isn't perfect yet and it is probably way too pro-Amitabh for some people but it needed basic development to build a good article upon. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 13:20, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

What I'd like you to do for me is to find some reviews of Amitabh's film and performances from the 1970s and early 1980s and some quotes from critics so we can incorporate them into the text and get some idea of his critical reception. Agreed? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 13:23, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

Great. Yes I wasn't responsible for those references. Given that I am not deeply knowledgeable about his career I've expanded it using what I could. I am always afraid to edit a Bollywood article in that you may disapprove of my edits and revert them completely as you are the expert not me, but I see his article as a core article, particularly for Indian cinema and Bollywood which really should be a priority to write the best article we can on him and give him a high quality article to match his status ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 13:31, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

After Preity I strongly think we should try to take his article to FA as it is so important to Bollywood. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 13:32, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

As I am not up on the subject matter of his films perhaps you could fill in some information on the roles he played more and the content of his films also. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 13:34, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

E.g "In 1976 he was once again cast by director Yash Chopra in his second film, Kabhi Kabhie, a romantic tale in which Bachchan starred as a young poet named Amit Malhotra who falls deeply in love with a beautiful young girl named Pooja played by actress Rakhee Gulzar. The emotional eclectic of the dialogue and softness of the subject matter proved a direct contrast to some of Amitabh's earlier grittier action pictures and those he would later go on to play." This was based on observation (it seems to be true) but needs some more discussion like this and reviews. Expanding the 2000s section with reviews and everything should be very easy ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 13:38, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

If I was to cite an Indian director that seems to be impressive I'd say Yash Chopra. He seems like the sort of film director that I rave about. What do you think? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 13:47, 27 April 2008 (UTC) Oh I also put Dharmendra's filmo in order. Its so HUGE!!!! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 16:35, 27 April 2008 (UTC) I never knew that Amitabh's father was a poet. I uploaded an image of him Image:Harivansh Rai Bachchan.jpg. Is this really his father?? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 18:36, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

Not exactly what you would call a resemblance is there lol. Then again Lenny Kravitz's father looks like Woody Allen. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 08:41, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi. Sorry I didn't word it better. What I meant was that you often log in and then say you have to leave a few minutes later lol. At other times though it seems you have hours on here!!. You mentioned before you were very busy. I wondered whether you had got a new job or something. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 09:41, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Yes I did wonder, your edit history still shows you are here on many occasions on most days (which is great!) but I wondered why your periods on here seemed to be shorter than before, it seems like you have to log in and out at various times throughout the day, you haven't got a younger sister fighting for the PC have you?? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 09:52, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Another Kaa film Kaalpurush. It is just amazing isn't it that within minutes of creating it two editors from Bengal edit it! ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 10:31, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

I can't believe that in adding all of Dasgupta's films I have created 5 film articles missing from National Film Award for Best Film. Aren't these acclaimed films? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 12:34, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

However there of course many excellent films and talented film directors and actors from the other industries too but a Bengali or Marathi art film for instance is likely to be very different from a mainstream Bollywood blockbuster such as KANK or something. With Bollywood though I've noticed there seems to be a lesser focus on film directors than in other industries and more attention on the movie stars themselves. This is the impression I've got from it on wikipedia anyway as some of the film directors who you would think would have full articles by now like Yash Chopra etc are still stubs. It seems like many of the other industries seek out actors who appear in Hindi films to appear in their films to raise their profile but are often not as well financed as Bollywood companies. Didn't you say Zinta had to accept a pay cut to appear in some art films? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 16:15, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

I absolutely agree. But thats illustrated what I said exactly. Dasgupta 5 of his films have won a National Film Award for Best Picture and correct me if I was wrong but isn't this an incredible achievement given the huge number of films that India producers in total? Yet his article is still a stub and it doesn't even mention this either ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 16:38, 29 April 2008 (UTC) Another director who looks impressive who Dwaiypanc made me aware of is Mrinal Sen. He seems to overlap though with Hindi cinema . I created Template:Mrinal Sen earlier and will try to get all his films up and running in a few days. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 16:41, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Have a look at Image:Benaam1974.JPEG. Who is the sexy lady on the bottom right? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 13:44, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Very fit looking. I find it so funny that an Indian actress is called Helen!! Helen is a popular name here in Wales. In fact I used to have a girlfriend called Helen Peplow when I was about twelve! A name such as Helen Jones or Helen Morgan is a popular welsh name. Its also funny to see several Indian actors called Johnny ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 15:44, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

I never knew that there was a lasting influence with names. I mean I've never heard of an Indian called James or Ian or Bob or something. The vast majority Indian people I've met or have come across or have a knowledge of e.g Shadrukh Khan etc have Indian names even here in the UK. One of my best friends in school was a guy called Usman Hanif who was Punjab, also friends with Azhar Naheem. Both had a great sense of humour. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 16:00, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

I see somebody has opposed because of relibale sources. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 11:19, 1 May 2008 (UTC) And guess who it is? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 11:20, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

=Blofeld has the lurgies

LOL!!! Hello User:Shshshsh. How are you? Ahh I've picked up a sore throat somehow. I must have caught it from my dad (who had a cold last week). Horrible a sore throat isn't it, difficulty swallowing ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 18:59, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Urgh I feel really ill. Every muscle in by body aches!!! Remember I started the museums in South Korea and Greece and said that they would be expanded. See Ilmin Museum of Art! This is an automated message from User:Blofeld the Bald Mother Crunker from Japan via Bruges, Belgium ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 21:55, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Yes I rarely come down with a full virus or illness but it kind of feels like you do when you have the flu when every aches and you have a fever. Perhaps I spent too long in the magma pool yesterday. I hope I can sleep it off in a minute!! I'll have a nice cup of cocoa or something now and then rest my bald head on the pillow and cuddle up to Mr. Biggelsworth. Sound snug? z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 22:10, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

DYK

On 26 April, 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Kaash, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Dil Hai Tumhaara

Hi! Sorry, I meant to reply but forgot. Please go ahead with editing the article. I don't have the time right now to sit down and really look at articles (mostly I just do minor copyediting between work, heh heh), so give the Dil Hai Tumhaara article the overhaul it needs.

IPL subsection in Zinta

With the craze of IPL increasing, and Zinta involving herself totally with the team, I thought it was time for a separate subsection. I created the subsection. See if you wish to add more.--Dwaipayan (talk) 14:39, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi! Well, here (name of the IPL sebsection) I am in two minds. It's true the using the full form lengthens the name of the subsection. On the other hand, the acronym IPL is not that well-known (unlike, for example, UNICEF or WHO). So, it's better to retain the full name. Let's keep it as it is (full name). If someone raises the issue, it can be tackled.--Dwaipayan (talk) 08:25, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

consult John. Being a non-Indian, he will be able to give an unbiased view.--Dwaipayan (talk) 11:00, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

"Ownership of Indian Premier League cricket team"—even longer :)--Dwaipayan (talk) 11:26, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Again, IMO, the present title is ok. Let's see what John (or anyone else) has to say. Otherwise, don't need to be bothered by this.--Dwaipayan (talk) 12:23, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Copyediting

Hi Shahid, I'd help, but I'm nearly overwhelmed just now with another article at FAC, peer reviews, and keeping promises I've made about other articles. If things settle down, I'll see what I can do. That isn't likely to happen any time soon, alas. My best. Finetooth (talk) 17:29, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Thank you!

What a nice surprise to find a barnstar on my talk page. Thank you! I really appreciate it. Regards, -Classicfilms (talk) 02:24, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Edit counts

Lovely image huh?

Thats very impressive but where is there a figure or list of articles I've created? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 10:17, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Edit count is a week or so behind though my current edit count is 147,601 ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 10:19, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah I can see all the data on edit count, images uploaded, categories etc but where does it say number of pages created? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 10:26, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Ah I didn't see that I'll look now ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 10:50, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Still can't find it. Could you tell me? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 10:53, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

I tried that earlier and it came up with the same list. Don't worry about it anyway. It won't even create the graphs for mine like it does to yours. I see you nearly have 20,000 edits which I thought would be more correct. I wonder when the wikimedia will start displaying peoples bank details and details on birth marks or scars huh? ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 11:31, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Yes lol Sarvagnya's one even gives details on his tattoo of a serpent on his right thigh. Hiss hisss Shahid. Hisssssss. ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 11:43, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

You do realise that on here this shows all the articles I've created ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 12:04, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Ja it filters out the edits in between which make it look like less but when you see a pure list you get the idea lol ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 12:27, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Satyajit Ray

So, it's in the main page :) Lage Raho... has already been there. So, next it would be Zinta, I hope :)--Dwaipayan (talk) 12:06, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
