Separate Article for Telugu Version[edit]

Wouldn't it be better if there was a separate article for the Telugu version of Kuselan titled "Kathanayakudu"? --இளைய நாயகன் Eelam Stylez (talk) 10:57, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

i agree, but i don't know much about the telugu version Ckwerty (talk) 19:08, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Rajini's apology to kannadigas no excuse for vandalism[edit]

Please do not vandalize this article.--Gthorvey (talk) 19:16, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Flop show[edit]

I never understood why Rajini bothered to remake Katha Parayumbol, which itself was a flop. Now, Kuselan too has collapsed. Anwar (talk) 10:46, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Katha parayumbol was not a flop, it was one of the biggest hits of 2007 Malayalam movies. --Syam Kumar (talk) 13:27, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Box Office[edit]

I read from behindwoods.com that in chennai alone it has made 2.19 crores by the second week thats about 21 million rupees/£273,750/$547,500 and the film was made for 600 million rupees/£7,500,000/$15,000,000. Its not doing bad.Xxxsacheinxxx (talk) 18:57, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I found out that kuselan has already made 200,000,000 million rupees Xxxsacheinxxx (talk) 19:27, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

unsourced statements[edit]

I have removed several unsourced statements that fail to meet the neutral point of view and Verifiability policies.--Captain-tucker (talk) 11:02, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your efforts. I've let the IP know of the same. Mspraveen (talk) 11:08, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

GA Review[edit]

This review is transcluded from Talk:Kuselan/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.


Hello. I will be doing the GA review for this article. I've only scanned it so far, so here are some initial changes to be made before I delve more deeply into the text:

  • Rajinikanth is linked several times in the Plot section...only link the first mention. Actually, overlinking is an issue in several sections.
  • There is a lot of tense changing going on, especially in the development section. Plot information should be in present, but everything else should be in past tense.
  • Song titles should be in quotes (not italics). Albums names should be in italics.
  • Crore is linked twice in the reception, but no definition is given. A brief definition in the text is needed for those not familiar with the term. See WP:JARGON.
  • Avoid peacock terms such as "super hit"

That's it for now. The article will be on hold for seven days to allow for these initial changes. When most of them are complete, I'll add some to the list. Nikki311 19:23, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The seven days are up and nothing seems to have been addressed, so I am failing the article. Please consider incorporating my suggestions, as well as getting a good general copyeditor to look over the article, before renomination. Nikki311 21:08, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewer: –– Jezhotwells (talk) 19:19, 2 April 2010 (UTC) I shall be reviewing this article against the Good Article criteria, following its nomination for Good Article status.[reply]

Checking against GA criteria[edit]

This article is in very poor shape. The grammar is extremely poor, it needs a thorough copy-edit. It appears to be a poor translation into English.


GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS):
    Very badly written, see above.
    The Lead does not fully summarise the article, please read WP:LEAD
    Contradiction: The lead states that Rajinikanth siad he was making a guest appearance, but the Development section says he was cast in a lead role.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): Two dead links were tagged using WP:CHECKLINKS, another was fixed from an archive source.
    What makes ref #7 [1] a reliable source? The reference is badly formatted as well
    What makes ref #14 [2] a reliable source - it claims to be a "social netwroking utility"
    What makes ref #16 [3] a reliable source?
    What makes ref #21 [4] a reliable source?
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    The image in the infobox box needs a caption. I query why an album cover is being used in the infobox to illustrate a film?
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    The prose is extremely poor as mentioned above. See if you can get someone else tp copy edit. The WP:Guild of Copyeditors may be able to help. There are also referencing issues. I shall place this on hold for seven days, if you cannot fix it in that time the article will not be listed. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 19:48, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    As the nominator has removed the article from the list at WP:GAN, I shall close this review as not listed. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 16:14, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
