Hello everyone!

This article, about an Indian actress, is already a GA. It has had a long history on WP. Now, I think it meets the FA criteria. However, I believe the article would benefit with a broader perspective and more comments from editors before taking it to FAC again. In order to make it a better qualified FAC, I would like to know what your opinion of the article is, and if there are any suggestions to improve it and take it a few steps further.

I'll be watching this page, and waiting for any suggestions, ideas and comments.

I'm wondering why one of the images isn't used in the lead? Please be sure to have Elcobbola (talk · contribs) check the images before you come to FAC, and ask Epbr123 (talk · contribs) to do a final MoS check; there are quite a few MoS issues. Getting those issues out of the way pre-FAC will smooth the way. There are errors in logical punctuation: Epbr will pick those up if you don't get them all. There are also WP:MOS#Ellipses problems. The sourcing looks good; remember though that The New York Times is italicized, like all journals, magazines and newspapers. And I hit dead links on indiantelevision.com, so you'd best review those. The prose could be tighter, so you might to find a word nerd to go through, samples only:

  • The column turned out to be a success, and became one of the site's top 10 most widely read stories on the day.
    • The column was a success, become one of the site's top 10 in readership.
  • ... identifies herself as not being of a particularly religious nature.
    • ... self identifies as not being particularly religious.

It's close, but needs a few more eyes to tighten up the prose and correct the MoS issues. Good luck; hope to see you soon at FAC. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 00:08, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Sandy, thanks for commenting! I will try and address all your concerns. Regards, ShahidTalk2me 10:20, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • The images are FU, so we cannot use them in the lead. ShahidTalk2me 10:24, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Epbr123 (talk · contribs) has done a great cleanup. In fact, all your above mentioned concerns have been addressed. Tomorrow I'll take care of prose issues. Thank you, ShahidTalk2me 22:20, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
