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]

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
  • 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
  • There is one green link that needs to be fixed.
  • "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".
  • "..in which she was among the three characters.." Can you explain it in a better way?

  • Could you add the year for the infobox image in the caption?
  • For the films that are Tamil-Telugu bilingual films, should the language block have both of the languages rather than just one?
    • Since we have separate articles for both films, I chose to keep them as separate entries. —Vensatry (talk) 08:43, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • Oh, that makes perfect sense then. I apologize for not noticing that even though it was really clear in the table. Aoba47 (talk) 14:21, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would avoid the phrase "This was followed by" as the word "This" is somewhat vague. I would recommend revising the sentence to avoid "this'.
    • 'It'? —Vensatry (talk) 08:43, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • I think "It" works better. I know it is a small, nitpicky note, but just trying to help. Aoba47 (talk) 14:21, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I am not sure what you mean by "to that point", and would suggest revising it to make it clearer.
    • It's the same as "that point in time". It's very much accpetable – see this —Vensatry (talk) 08:43, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • Makes sense to me, this was more of a clarification question on my part. Aoba47 (talk) 14:21, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • The "call" in "call centre" should not be capitalized.
  • What do you mean by "special appearance"? Could you clarify this for me? How is it different than a cameo appearance?
    • It's more or less similar to 'Guest appearance'. Cameo is short but a notable one. —Vensatry (talk) 08:43, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • Thank you for the clarification. I agree that "special appearances" and cameo and guest appearances should be kept separate than as they are different from one another. Aoba47 (talk) 14:21, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Vensatry: Great job with this article! Once my comments are addressed, I will support this. If possible, could you possible review my FLC for Alyssa Milano discography? I know it is a busy time of the year, so I understand if you do not have the time or interest of doing this. Let me know if you have any questions about my comments. Aoba47 (talk) 02:11, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Aoba47: Thanks for the comments. I'll review your list in the next two days. —Vensatry (talk) 08:43, 12 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.
  • "Later that year, she played dual roles in the Telugu film Manam, which earned her critical acclaim" — this needs to be sourced.
  • 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]
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?
  • It is Paro for Life Is Beautiful.
  • Ref no. 74 needs a fix.

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.
  • 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.
  • 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]]?
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • In the table, "Kannada language" redirects to "Kannada", and must be fixed (visual editor can easily fix this).
  • 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.
  • 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?

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]

Promoting. --PresN 21:28, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
