Nominator(s): —Vensatry _(talk) 12:10, 9 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Shriya Saran is an Indian actress who works mainly in the South Indian film industry. Having spent a considerable amount of time overhauling the list, I believe it meets the criteria. Look forward to comments and suggestions. —Vensatry _(talk) 12:10, 9 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved comments from Yashthepunisher (talk) 06:15, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Yashthepunisher Is 'idlebrain' a RS? Replaced with YT links wherever possible. —Vensatry (talk) 19:19, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply] Provide 1-2 external links Added, not really needed though. —Vensatry (talk) 19:19, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply] Can you provide a better alt text? Names should be more than enough in these lists. Feel free to expand though. —Vensatry (talk) 19:19, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply] I think she 'was' a model She still is. —Vensatry (talk) 19:19, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply] There is one green link that needs to be fixed. Done —Vensatry (talk) 19:19, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply] "The following year, she made her Hindi cinema debut.." It would sound better as "she made her hindi film debut" or "debut in hindi films". I don't find any difference. —Vensatry (talk) 19:19, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply] "..in which she was among the three characters.." Can you explain it in a better way? Done —Vensatry (talk) 19:19, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply] Yashthepunisher (talk) 11:34, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Support this nomination. Yashthepunisher (talk) 06:15, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Support this nomination. Wonderful job with this list. It was a very enjoyable read and very informative. Aoba47 (talk) 14:23, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Pavanjandhyala

• Please provide a valid reliable source about her Malayalam film debut in the lead.

• Done —Vensatry _(talk) 09:36, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• "Later that year, she played dual roles in the Telugu film Manam, which earned her critical acclaim" — this needs to be sourced.

• Done —Vensatry _(talk) 09:36, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Ref no. 4, 14, 29, 30, 36, 53, 79, 80 and 81 do not mention the character name

• Ref #30 is perfect. Removed character names for Tadka and AAA as they are yet to be released. Cannot find her character name in Oopiri. I see that you'd taken the film to GA. Any help will be appreciated. —Vensatry _(talk) 09:36, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• This from YuppTV should help. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 15:54, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• I'm not sure it'll work. Removed —Vensatry _(talk) 06:10, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The character's name is Priya. I'd usually do cite a source like <ref>[last name], [first name] (director) (year). [film name] (motion picture). [country]: [production company]. Named mentioned at x:xx</ref>, but as a last resort. Kailash29792 (talk) 06:21, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Given her role was a minuscule one , I think it's better to leave as it is. —Vensatry _(talk) 08:10, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Ref no. 19 does not mention the character name and director name as well.

• Added one. Cannot find any sources for her character name though. —Vensatry _(talk) 09:36, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Why is k small in Raj kumar?
  • Fixed —Vensatry _(talk) 09:36, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• It is Paro for Life Is Beautiful.

• Done —Vensatry _(talk) 09:36, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Ref no. 74 needs a fix.

• Done —Vensatry _(talk) 09:36, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The remaining things look fine for me. Hence, i Support the list's promotion. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 15:54, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Kailash

• Is it really necessary to link "Indian actress" to Cinema of India? I'd go with list of Indian film actresses, but it seems unnecessary and bordering on WP:OVERLINK.
  • Agreed —Vensatry _(talk) 13:24, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• the Tamil-Telugu bilingual film Enakku 20 Unakku 18, which marked her debut in Tamil cinema" - people will mistake Enakku 20 Unakku 18 as being a single film where both Tamil and Telugu are abundantly spoken. The Telugu version of the film is Nee Manasu Naaku Telusu, so please resolve this in any way.
  • Done —Vensatry _(talk) 13:24, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Why are some films' directors mentioned, and others not? I agree that only the notable ones (as in directors) must be mentioned in the lead, but some notable ones seem left out.
  • I've taken both the films and directors into account. —Vensatry _(talk) 13:24, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Saran's solitary release in 2006 was the Tamil film Thiruvilayadal Arambam. - please add a source, and correct the spelling (it's Thiruvilaiyaadal Aarambam).
  • Corrected the title. Source is not needed as it can be verified in the table. —Vensatry _(talk) 13:24, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• The same year, she made a comeback in Hindi cinema with Mohit Suri's Awarapan - "Hindi cinema" has already appeared in para 1 in the sentence mentioning Tujhe Meri Kasam, so it must be linked there rather than here. Or is the link even needed, considering that the intro sentence reads "Hindi films", linking to [[Hindi]]?
  • Done —Vensatry _(talk) 13:24, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• she made her American cinema debut with James Dodson's The Other End of the Line - "American cinema" redirects to Cinema of the United States, and may be fixed as such. Do you think it should be mentioned as her debut in an English-language film?
  • 'English language' films are not 'American cinema' specific. Indian cinema has a sizeable share of English language films as well. —Vensatry _(talk) 13:24, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Her subsequent releases include the Tamil films Kanthaswamy (2009), Kutty (2010), and Pokkiri Raja (2010), which marked her debut in Malayalam cinema - there should be an "and" between Kanthaswamy and Kutty as they are the only Tamil films, and to avoid including Pokkiri Raja.
  • Good catch. Fixed —Vensatry _(talk) 13:24, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• The following years, she played a princess in Roopa Iyer's period fantasy drama Chandra; the film was shot simultaneously in Kannada and Tamil - I think you mean to mention that Chandra was a Kannada/Tamil bilingual, with both released a year apart from each other. Do link Kannada.
  • Done —Vensatry _(talk) 13:24, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• In the table, "Kannada language" redirects to "Kannada", and must be fixed (visual editor can easily fix this).
  • Done —Vensatry _(talk) 13:24, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• For easy sorting purpose, there should not be multiple languages in fields. For multilinguals like Oopiri/Thozha and Chandra, you could do like what Pavan did in Tamannaah filmography.
  • Done —Vensatry _(talk) 13:24, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• There are only three sections in the whole article; as a result, the TOC does not appear. Is this intentional? Because it may make the article appear too short. Can a "See also" section be added?
  • A FN section has now been added —Vensatry _(talk) 13:24, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Once these comments are resolved, this will have my support. Don't forget to see if the links are all working. Use Checklinks for that. Kailash29792 (talk) 08:58, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support: Now that my comments have been resolved, I hope this list passes FLC. Kailash29792 (talk) 14:53, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Source review – Source reliability looks okay. There is an issue with the formatting in a couple of places, as refs 72 and 77 have some improper all caps. Other than those two cites, the formatting looks fine. The link checker is having problems with ref 6 (the Calcutta Telegraph one), so please do a double-check to ensure that it is still in working order. Giants2008 (Talk) 19:54, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Fixed both. The Telegraph link works perfectly; the problem is with the tool. Maybe, the website has blocked external tools from accessing it. —Vensatry _(talk) 05:09, 9 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
