This article provides a listing of the notable awards and nominations received by the 2017 Indian Tamil film, Mersal starring Vijay. This film is notable for garnering its cast and crew members several awards and nominations. It is my fifteenth attempt at an accolades FLC. Any constructive comments to improve this list are most welcome.  — Ssven2 Looking at you, kid 16:32, 3 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from BeatlesLedTV
  • "It was a commercially successful venture," how bout just "It was also a commercial success,"...?
  • In the second paragraph, should "Vijay's performance" by performances since he portrayed more than one person?
  • Should there be refs in the third paragraph? (currently has none)
  • "S. J. Surya" is spelled as "S. J. Suryah" in the table (multiple times)
  • Fix the disambiguation link for Business Today in ref 11

Everything looks great as always. Great job on this! – BeatlesLedTV (talk) 17:51, 3 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your comments, BeatlesLedTV. I've resolved them. Do have a look again and get back to me. Thank you.  — Ssven2 Looking at you, kid 05:23, 4 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Kailash
  • Mersal is not an English word, so you may consider adding the translation. Many Bollywood FLs have this.
  • Consider moving the page for WP:PRECISION. List of accolades received by Madras (film) was moved to List of accolades received by Madras.
  • [[Tamil language|Tamil-language]] [[Action film|action]] [[thriller film]] - you may not want to violate WP:SEAOFBLUE, so try reducing the consecutive links. Either write [[action thriller]] film or [[action thriller film]] (because redirects are not broken links), or [[Action film#Action thriller|action thriller film]] if you prefer to avoid redirects (personally, I typically use links that redirect to sections).
  • Ruben and G. K. Vishnu was in charge of the editing and cinematography respectively - They were in charge, not was.

That will be all from me. Once addressed, this FLC will have my support. In return, do help me at Mullum Malarum's PR. Kailash29792 (talk) 11:29, 4 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sources are all reliable and formatted properly except wiki-link IBN Times first in ref 16 and de-link in subsequent instances. FrB.TG (talk) 16:55, 4 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved the "IB Times" source now, FrB.TG.  — Ssven2 Looking at you, kid 17:04, 4 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comments from Veera Narayana
  • With all due respect to the great Atlee, Mersal never thrills during its run time. Though I see a source supporting your argument, Action film would suffice to be honest.
  • No mention of Qutub-E-Kripa in the credits. Why dear?
  • Indian Express to be wikilinked in ref 6.
  • Rest looks just fine. The image has no issues with its licensing and all, though a more "clear" image would benefit the purpose. However, upon checking the Commons, i don't think so that you can find one. Hence, discounted.

Let me know once you have addressed the comments. Veera Narayana 07:09, 5 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your comments, Veera Narayana. As for the Indian Express one, I've already wikilinked it at ref 4 if you look closely in the references section. I've resolved the rest. Do have a look again and get back to me. Thank you.  — Ssven2 Looking at you, kid 07:19, 5 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, my bad. Didn't notice that. Well, now that my concerns are met, this nomination has my support. Regards, Veera Narayana 05:08, 6 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comments
    • I would say that the film title needs to be in italics in the article title (using the DISPLAYTITLE template)
    • "and Vijay's performances have received" => "and Vijay's performances received"
    • The last three footnotes are not complete sentences, so shouldn't have full stops.
    • Think that's it from me! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:31, 5 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your comments, ChrisTheDude. I've resolved them. Do have a look again and get back to me. Thank you.  — Ssven2 Looking at you, kid 07:42, 5 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Aoba47
  • For this sentence (Mersal features Vijay in triple roles for the first time in his career.), I am a little confused by the last part (for the first time in his career). It implies to me that he would play a triple role in future films, but I do not see that in his filmography list. Also, are triple roles common enough in Indian or Tamil-language films that it is noteworthy to be his "first time" doing so?

That is my only note. Once my comment is addressed, I will be more than happy to support this. Aoba47 (talk) 19:24, 5 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Aoba47, the sentence also implies that in his 27-year long career as a mainstream actor (in protagonist roles), he has never done this before and he is playing a triple role for the first time through this film, which is considered a significant milestone. I do think it is okay for his filmography list but its your call if I can keep this sentence as it is or remove the "first time" bit.  — Ssven2 Looking at you, kid 09:40, 6 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • The sentence still strikes me as odd as it implies to me that he either would go on to do more triple roles or that triple roles are a major trope in this type of cinema. I am not sure if I would consider it a "significant milestone" in his career, in the same way that I wouldn't say something like Lindsay Lohan played twin characters for the first time in The Parent Trap. However, that is probably just my personal preference and I will leave that up to other editors. I support this for promotion. Aoba47 (talk) 16:25, 6 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, I also wondered about the triple roles bit, but that seems to have been sorted Jimfbleak - talk to me? 12:53, 7 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much, Jimfbleak. Your thoughts and comments are greatly appreciated.  — Ssven2 Looking at you, kid 14:39, 7 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
