  • Before this review can proceed, I would suggest that the article be given a copy-edit as there appear to be several grammatical and vocabulary issues in it (although please inform me if the following are correct in Indian or Nepali English). For example, "the film grossed lifetime collection", the first sentence of the Production sentence, "approximately one months" among others could be revised. I could also suggest that two more additional hooks could be proposed, one is that the name was changed upon the advice of an astrologer, and the other being that the film was pulled due to COVID. Among the existing hooks, ALT0 is probably the better one and may have the wider global appeal; I'm assuming good faith for the non-English source. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 08:20, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
@CAPTAIN MEDUSA: Those sound good. As soon as the copyedits are done I'll do the full review; you can make a request over at WP:GOCE if you need some help. I also fixed a few misspellings of the word "because" in both hooks". Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 12:53, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Article was sufficiently new at the time of the nomination, and is long enough and adequately sourced. The astrologer hooks are cited to Nepali sources so AGF on their reliability, while the COVID hooks are verified in an English-language source. QPQ has been done. The grammar still seems iffy in places, although I'm not sure if this is just because the article is in Indian English. Going to ask for a second opinion on the grammar (ideally from an Indian English speaker) to check out the grammar, and once this has been resolved I'll give the tick.

Thanks for the copyedits. I still think a hook about the astrologer angle would work (in addition to the film being pulled angle), so I'd like to re-propose ALT3 but reword it as ALT3a: ... that the title of the 2020 Nepali comedy-drama film Senti Virus was changed from "Anti Virus" upon the advice of an astrologer?, but as ALT3 had been struck we'll need someone else to review it and see if the hook fact for that remains suitable.

  • @Narutolovehinata5: I struck it because I thought it said too much. Usually the reader clicks on the article to find out additional details. But if you like it, please give a tick to your slight rewording in ALT3a, which is fine by me. Then I can promote it. Yoninah (talk) 08:21, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
Going to assume good faith to ALT3a's sourcing as it's cited to a Nepali source. Although ALT3/ALT3a is my preferred hook, ALT2 is also fine; I'll leave the choice of hook to the promoter. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 11:19, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
