Consistent Plot Removal

[edit]

Please stop with the removal of the plot portion of this article. If you have something which contradicts what has been cited please change the wording or add to it. Let's open a dialogue here to iron out the plot issues instead of starting edit wars on the article.- McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 17:22, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Simple removal of it is not acceptable (neither to prevent giving away details supposed to be a surprise (WP:SPOILERS) nor to help boost box-office attendance to find it out (WP:ADVERTISING, etc.). If it's supported by reliable sources, it's includable. If there are contradictory sources or disputed details, that can be included as well (or instead if they are more reliable). I'll push it up to full-protection if this continues (apparently it's not just new/IP editors involved (semi-protection is not solving it), but longer-term editors who should know better (I already blocked one).

Please delete the "Plot" section of this wiki. The movie is not yet released and someone has posted a plot. DBroFist (talk) 12:50, 19 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done the plot appears to be from a reliable source - we do not prohibit, or warn about, "spoilers", the fact that the section is called "Plot", should be enough for people who do not want to know the plot, not to read it. - Arjayay (talk) 15:01, 19 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Vijay and AR Murugadoss create a different kind of magic this time around".[5]Sify gave 4 out of 5 and stated the movie is a well made entertainer with a powerful message.[6]M. Suganth of The Times Of India gave 3.85 out of 5 and wrote "'kaththi' will definitely be picked up by a big Bollywood star for a remake.For, the knife which was bang on target.[7]

3.5/5 doesn't exactly sound like "highly positive" to me. Stickee (talk) 23:40, 11 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Not done: as the 3.5 mentioned by Stickee is about the average rating - there are also scores of 3, 3.25 and 3.35 none of which are "highly positive" - Arjayay (talk) 12:17, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Horrible English

This is terrible! Has anyone noticed the Production Section, specifically under the heading Vijay and arm Combo.

Why does it say it is the highest grossed movie of 2014?

[edit]

Why does it say it is the highest grossed movie of 2014 when Veeram which was released in 2014 grossed 130 crores? It hasn't been listed on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_highest-grossing_Tamil_films as the highest grosser of 2014. Can you please remove? Source doesn't make sense and it contradicts with the data that has been stated on Veeram. It says in IB times, Kaththi has grossed 112 crores whereas, Forbes (which I think is a better source) says it has 135 crores. Obviously, Kaththi can't the biggest grosser. Use your common sense and remove it please

This review is transcluded from Talk:Kaththi/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Reviewer: Ssven2 (talk · contribs) 08:21, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]


This article is a straightaway fail for a lot of reasons:

  • The nominator is an IP editor who has not contributed to the article's development in any manner. I have been contributing the most to this article (it still has some of the edits I performed back in late 2014 as well as references that I posted and archived).
  • The plot is excess of 700 words and needs to be trimmed.
  • The lead section is short for GA criteria.
  • The reference structure is not uniform.
  • The prose is quite repetitive in many places and needs a good copyedit.

Citing these above reasons, I have to fail this article.  — Ssven2 Looking at you, kid 08:21, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
