Career as director[edit]

The bulleted list of items needs to be edited into prose. Keep in mind that the list of films is already in the table below, so this section should be reliably sourced material on what is notable about Upendra as a director, career highlights, etc. --Tgeairn (talk) 17:15, 10 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sources needed for personal information[edit]

The article lacks sources for personal information including birth, early life, early career, etc. Please provide sources inline, or here where others can add them. Make sure sources are reliable sources. --Tgeairn (talk) 18:31, 10 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have been suggested not to edit this article, nor I have too much energy left to do the work. But, I started creating a draft in text-editor (well, it is similar to Windows "Notepad"). Note, this was a draft and work was incomplete (specially, blank sections mean works incomplete). I am copy pasting my draft below. Hope it'll help somehow. Since the list is long, I am using a collapsed box:

  • Does this Kannada superstar has personal website or verified Twitter prfile?

Kanyadanam can be tagged[edit]

The 1998 Telugu film Kanyadanam starring Upendra has not been tagged even though there is a separate article for the film under the name Kanyadanam (1998 film). Arrwiki (talk) 11:07, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Mr. Stradivarius: Thanks for the fix to the article and to the template. Yes, it's confusing that {{editrequest}} and {{edit request}} are two different templates. Guess I should learn to use {{edit protected}} instead. Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 18:29, 13 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Copyeditor passing by[edit]

Hi, just wanted to leave some thoughts and updates on this article:

  • Summary trimming: I removed most of the film synopses in the article because they don't contribute to talking about Upendra aside from what he does; this information can be found in the film articles linked to the page.
  • Charged language: I neutralised most of the tone as a lot of the article was doing more than providing facts.
  • The Sandalwood King source: As a forum thread where is it getting the information from? Any other sources?

Will update tomorrow. --Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝) 02:34, 6 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup for better reading[edit]

Hi, I have reorganized the article such that it is easy to read and has a neutral tone. I plan to remove 'Non-Neutrality' tag soon. Please do let me know if there are concerns.
