5x expanded by Vensatry (talk). Self-nominated at 07:49, 8 October 2016 (UTC).

Hook is within policy and under 200 characters...article has been expanded five-fold and is long enough...no copyvio...QPQ completed. This one is good to go. TempleM (talk) 20:47, 13 October 2016 (UTC)

The hook uses the word "film" three times. Yoninah (talk) 00:08, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

@Yoninah: How about ALT1 ... that Kaadu (1973), which won the National Award for Second Best Feature Film, was based on the novel of the same name by Srikrishna Alanahalli? —Vensatry _(talk) 14:02, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

Thank you, @Vensatry:, ALT1 is much better! I just took a look at the article, though, and am wondering why the reviewer passed it in this condition. Fully 81 percent of the article is unsourced, most of it unsourced plot. The actual referenced material comes to 733 char out of 3847 char. Can you add more detail, production notes, etc., to make this more than just a plot summary? Yoninah (talk) 17:47, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

References are not needed for plot per WP:FILMPLOT. However, a detailed synopsis is there in this source. I think the production section can still be expanded. —Vensatry _(talk) 18:02, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

Right. I wasn't talking about adding references to the plot section, but to expanding the non-plot sections. Yoninah (talk) 21:01, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

@Yoninah: Expanded the article a bit. Should be okay now. —Vensatry _(talk) 09:30, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

Thank you, @Vensatry:, that looks a lot better. Now the only thing missing is inline cites for the two hook facts, that it won the National Film Award for Second Best Feature Film and that it's based on the a novel of the same name by Srikrishna Alanahalli.

@Yoninah: All done —Vensatry _(talk) 09:21, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

Great, thanks! The hook fact about the novel of the same name is offline AGF, cited inline; the fact about the award is verified and cited inline. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 09:48, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
