Nice to see that you have tackled this one hell of a film. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 06:06, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Review[edit]

How is File:Sholay.jpg relevant? It grossly fails WP:NFCC#8.
The plot section is just toooooo long. Try to copy-edit and make it in four sections as is the norm.
The cast list is totally unsourced and looks like a directory. Try moving and merging it in the cast list. Look at upcoming films like W.E. for clarification and encyclopedic means of doing it.
Linking urls in the text is not acceptable. Please remove such instances.
Try using en-dash, check the whole article. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 10:11, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sholay.jpg - Done, plot section - Please explain, I don't see many film plots with four sections. It is a couple hundred words longer than average though; cast list - Most film cast sections are unsourced, but I added one; Linking urls - Done; en-dash - Please explain; I don't see this (or cast source or four section plot) in FAs like Lage Raho Munna Bhai. Is it a template or script of some kind? BollyJeff || talk 18:32, 8 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

plot - reduced from 972 words to 754 (further reduced to 710); en-dash - there seems to be a discussion going on about this at Wikipedia_talk:Manual_of_Style#en_dash_in_compounds... so I would prefer not to mess with it unless absolutely necessary.

I'm not talking about en-dash in compounds, but as a link. Like "Amitabh Bachchan – Jai", here we use en-dash, not normal "-". — Legolas ^(talk2me) 04:30, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Done - I finally found them in the special characters section of the editor. Hopefully the middle of these (- – —) is the right one. BollyJeff || talk 13:27, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Legolas had to take a long-term break, so I'll request a second opinion so this review can be wrapped up? Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 01:00, 28 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I looked it over. I don't have any issues - so I am moving to promote. Lord Roem (talk) 01:55, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
