Anand Rai

Removed the Anand Rai project. There has only been one tabloid that reported the project and there has been no confirmation from Kareena Kapoor Khan, her representatives or the director Aanand L Rai as yet about the project. A leading magazine editor(from filmfare) has declared the news as false currently.

Alright, thanks! -- KRIMUK90 ✉ 01:36, 24 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Why is her last name Khan???

There's is no source that her name is currently Kareena Kapoor Khan, even after she married her husband. She is still known as Kareena Kapoor. The entire page was redirected to Kareena Kapoor Khan, its that important of a difference. Also as far as i know the spouses are listed in the box on the top right, but the name that they are known for is what stays. There are also barely any pages called Kareena Kapoor Khan???— Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.116.246.149 (talk) 03:54, 12 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

she is now officially Kareena Kapoor Khan and is even credited in films with the surname Khan. Mahak01 (talk) 14:13, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Image

Which image should we have in the infobox: File:Kareena VithU launch.jpg or File:Kareena Kapoor in 2015.jpg. I am fine with both ones, but I think the latter is newer. -- Frankie _talk 19:48, 15 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"Bollywood" still acceptable?

Jee. To me Bollywood is a derogative word. Didn't know it is still 'neutral' on enwiki. -DePiep (talk) 22:06, 21 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Since the main article is still titled as such the term does not appear to be considered a neutrality issue.--174.91.187.135 (talk) 04:13, 22 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

What does Kareena Kapoor think? -DePiep (talk) 19:59, 22 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Who the fuck cares? It's the most recognisable term for Hindi cinema to En speakers. Get over it, no neutrality issue here. 86.135.158.125 (talk) 23:37, 22 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The expletive sort of proves my point. British culture viewpoint is not encyclopedic. -DePiep (talk) 20:15, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Its called Bollywood in Indian English too. 2.110.98.101 (talk) 20:25, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"... English"? How convincing. -DePiep (talk) 20:47, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

In which country do you think Indian English is an official languages? 2.110.98.101 (talk) 20:50, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This discussion is out of scope. Since the article on Hindi cinema is titled Bollywood, that's a reasonable term to use in the intro here—especially since we link to the article. This is not the place to discuss changes to that article. —C.Fred (talk) 20:54, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

My claim is within scope. (the only escapes I read were a curse and a 'wiki says it so it is OK'). -DePiep (talk) 22:33, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

So far the only closest thing to evidence provided to change the term is the personal opinion of one person rargaring the offensiveness of the term. The term is not going to be changed on that basis. A better idea would be to demonstrate evidence form reliable sources that the term has fallen out of favour.--174.91.187.135 (talk) 22:48, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"So far only one ..." ~~plus~~vs all "keep" voices that can only rely on English sources. (English by language & culture). That's the issue. -DePiep (talk)

The English Wikipedia does rely on English sources since it is for an English language readership. Assuming I am reading the last post correctly are you suggesting that we ignore English language sources for sources from the country or origin and if so are you suggesting that Germany be retitled Deutschland since German sources use that name.--174.91.187.135 (talk) 01:28, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
