Thanks for the nomination.The article certainly need improvement to maintain FA status. We are in the initial/pre-initial (!) stage to plan a collaborative effort to improve it. This project would need a lo...ng time. That's why I am writing this message. I'd expect 6 months, perhaps more. Let's see

The Indian movies FA writers produce some of the worst claptrap there is on WP. They appear at each others' FACs and give easy passes. Doing it for years. Movies and media FAs are poor quality to begin with. This is a vital article, it shouldn't be inflicted to prose honed on Bollywood's bimbos.

I am nominating this featured article for review because there are numerous unsourced statements in the article and unused references. Secondary concerns include missing information in references (mostly author names in articles) and a long Careers section that can be more effectively formatted.
294:. My only disagreement with him there is the fragment: "establishing Ray as one of the country's most distinguished filmmakers." for he is one of the world's greats, a "giant of world cinema," as the NPR tributeā€”that I heard on the car radio on the eve of his academy awardā€”put it. 155:
I have rather a lot on my plate at the moment and don't want to make commitments I cannot keep, but I thought it worth mentioning that we have a lot of very active editors writing about Indian films; perhaps pinging them individually may help.
205: 482:), you mentioned " a long Careers section that can be more effectively formatted" as an issue. I have been thinking about how to re-format. Do you have any suggestions/idea? I looked at the article on 486:, in which the major films have been discussed in greater details. We do not have such degree of details in Ray article. So, not sure following Chaplin pattern would be good. Thanks!-- 455:, starting from the "Background" section. Basically, adding/modifying material sourced from the biography authored by Robinson, making sure most sentences are referenced.-- 104: 108: 40: 96: 694: 30: 17: 705: 100: 650:
Dwaipayanc has not edited since January 1; I hope my good friend is OK, but this FAR has stalled so I must declare a delist.

whom I remember from the Kurosawa FAC, which to my abiding shame, I never got around to improving enough with my comments.

Will need a herculean effort to salvage the star but I am up for it, if somebody collaborates.
