Excellent progress on 30s movies! Is there films for years before 1931? If so it would be good to do all the 1920s too.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:05, 18 August 2014 (UTC)

@Dr. Blofeld: Thanks! May get sourcing help from IMDB for the 1920s. Thought I’d first blue stub few of the red links in the 30s. (Aside) Saw your list of films. Very impressive. Every time I thought you had not added, bolded or starred some film, I’d go back and check, and sure enough! E.g. The Kid, The Letter, Letter from an Unknown Woman, Ryan's Daughter (1970), Clockwork Orange (1971). If I may dare…. :) Personally I’d have starred Dr. No (Sean Connery!), Now Voyager (loved Bette Davis); added 1900, Jafar Panahi’s Offside, Life is Beautiful (1997). (End Aside) Kaayay (talk) 08:50, 19 August 2014 (UTC)

Glad you like my list. It's a work in progress and in 10 years time might be a lot better! Still it's more than the average person will have seen overall. I do have 1900 (Novocento), in fact I gave i top 20 greatest film material. but not seen Offside or is Life is Beautiful, will try to see them! In fact Jaguar also recommended the latter so I'll watch that now I think!♦ Dr. Blofeld 09:05, 19 August 2014 (UTC)

Template:Premankur Atorthy

Hi, I created this. Probably best way to cover the films, do them by director!♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:05, 26 August 2014 (UTC)

Aangan

Hullo. Can you save this from deletion by expanding? This has details on soundtrack.playback singers.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:12, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

@ @Dr. Blofeld: Sorry for getting in late. I see you've done a wonderful job with the references! Kaayay (talk) 11:24, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

Thanks. Any chance you could create a full filmography for Nasir Hussain? I'll create a Template:Nasir Hussain then..♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:23, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

@Dr. Blofeld: OK, will do. Tomorrow? Kaayay (talk) 12:33, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

Done it, and created Template:Nasir Hussain :-)♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:34, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

@Dr. Blofeld: You have nearly all his films on the Template from what I see. I'll check to make sure. You are real fast! Kaayay (talk) 12:41, 9 September 2014 (UTC)
@Dr. Blofeld: Have removd Balam Pardesia (1979), Chukti Bhar Senur (1983), *Gailen Saiyen Hamaar (1988) from Template as they are by the 'other' Nazir Hussain. Very confusing! Kaayay (talk) 13:31, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

Not according to imdb..♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:33, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

@Dr. Blofeld: Must be a mistake there too as these films are in Bhojpuri and Nazir Hussain made films in Bhojpuri, while Nasir Hussain made films in Hindi only. But I will check up again. Kaayay (talk) 13:38, 9 September 2014 (UTC)
@Dr. Blofeld: A very quick scan on google, which would obviously not do for an article. All Bhojpuri films.

1) http://hindi.filmibeat.com/features/a-brief-history-of-bhojpuri-cinema-part-three.html Balam Pardesia: Article in Hindi crediting Director: Nazir Hussain
2) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWCSSLXtwu4 Chutki bhar Senur director: Nazir Hussain Full film with Nazir Hussain’s name.
3) Roos Gailen Saiyen Hamaar Nazir Hussain http://www.induna.com/1000012315-productdetails/ Listing credits Nazir Hussain. Kaayay (talk) 15:05, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

Done, can you add September in references rather than Sep though? As you see above, IMDB is not a reliable source even though we mostly rely on it :-)♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:47, 11 September 2014 (UTC)

@Dr. Blofeld: Wow! That was quick. Thanks again. You mean Sep as in all of SEPTEMBER!? Rather tedious isn't it? :) But will do. Kaayay (talk) 12:53, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
Not if you use a cite web template which appears at the click of a button like I have in my coding!♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:58, 11 September 2014 (UTC)

I'll give you some tools to help you. Depending on what skin you use, I'm guessing Vector. Go into your preferences, appearance and paste this into custom javascript at the end of the skin list and click save. If you use Vector find the vector column and paste it into the custom javascript link at the end. FP is a film poster rationale, you just have to remove the : from the brackets after clicking. It'll give you a full rationale for the poster. All you have to do then is enter film title and add source. CW is a cite web template,. Whenever you need a citation template click cw and you can fill it out without having to enter September and publisher= etc. Just remember to update the month in your javascript every month! Reflist will make the reflist appear without typing it out and DF is a default name sorter for staritng biographies like Bloggs, Joe. Save you typing it out. Paste the following into your javascript page and click save and hold down cntrol shift and r I think. It might do it automatically. Once done click edit on a page and your new buttons should appear in the task bar just above the editing window. Here it is, but please copy the details from inside the editing window here. Paste from /** down to }); . Let me know if it works!

@Dr. Blofeld: I have two errors showing up at 39, 40.
39: "insertBefore": "==References==\n
49: Jump up ^ Empty citation (help)
I have this: Vector (default | Preview | Custom CSS | Custom JavaScript)
This is the custom Javascript I've opened and pasted.
Am still on the preferences page, when I press preview it says error on page and asks if I want to continue. Am I doing something wrong? Kaayay (talk) 13:34, 11 September 2014 (UTC)

You haven't saved it. Copy and paste the text from inside the editing window here rather than straight off the page and paste and save in User:Kaayay/vector.js. If you can't get that to work just copy the full from my own User:Dr. Blofeld/modern.js. It might show up with errors on your script page but it should work when you click edit on a page then and see the new buttons above the editing window.♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:41, 11 September 2014 (UTC)

@Dr. Blofeld: This hyperbolic :))) is less!! Thanks! Kaayay (talk) 14:42, 11 September 2014 (UTC)

It works then? You'll not need the translate headers but the gb is google books and gb ref is a google book url maker which you paste a url into. It might not be much good for old Bollywood but if you're editing better known films and more recent mainstream actors it'll be very useful.♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:38, 11 September 2014 (UTC)

@Dr. Blofeld: It works, just used CW for Lutaru Lalna with September! But can't locate gb? Kaayay (talk) 10:49, 12 September 2014 (UTC)

Click More and arrow down at very top of page. Try posting a google book url into it.♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:56, 12 September 2014 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

The No Spam Barnstar
For your exceptional work in competing the entire filmography of Homi Wadia and providing each one with meaningful content! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:48, 17 September 2014 (UTC)

@Dr. Blofeld: A big thanks to You! :)
BTW: is it OK for me to try help out here? Kaayay (talk) 12:22, 18 September 2014 (UTC)

Sure, just move it.♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:26, 18 September 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the barnstars and appreciation! BTW, do you have any Indian classics to recommend for User:Dr. Blofeld/Great films, if so please link them on the talk page!♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:08, 3 November 2014 (UTC)

@Dr. Blofeld: Hi! I wouldn't be able to help with Indian (different Indian languages) classics but can with Hindi films. I do have a list, though not all were top grossers. Is there a limit? Am also working on (can delete later) User:Kaayay/Hindi Classic Films :) Bolding the ones I think are good. There are several which need work or correcting, so I’m glad to have started this. Will keep me busy tidying up for a while. Kaayay (talk) 15:06, 4 December 2014 (UTC)

That's great, exactly what I was looking for thanks. Add as many as you want LOL.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:14, 4 December 2014 (UTC)

For your great work in the Indian cinema related articles. Excellent! Dwaipayan (talk) 03:03, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

Thanks @Dwaipayanc:, really appreciate. Kaayay (talk) 14:03, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

Jailor

My apologies, I thought you meant that you had created the article initially at 1938 and then realised you'd made an error and restarted it at 1958 LOL. I thought you wanted to db author the 1938 one. I can see what happened now, another editor thought you'd made duplicates when in fact they're two different films and was wrongly trying to get the 1938 article deleted. Sorry! I've restored now, agree it shouldn't be deleted, OK?♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:27, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

User:Dr. Blofeld :)) Thank you very much for the time. Kaayay (talk) 11:36, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

Can you make sure you add the films directed by categories too? Cheers.♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:37, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

User:Dr. Blofeld, am experiencincing a Duh(?) moment... what is er.. "films by categories"? Kaayay (talk) 11:54, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
OH Ok Got it! You mean add category:Sohrab Modi? Right? Kaayay (talk) 11:59, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of Bollywood films of 1967, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sardar (film). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks! But suspension yet

Hi Kaayay. thank you very much for you recreated my article and added a lots of infos. But I'm not tension free yet. because the deletion notice remains yet! please do something to repel this deletion notice. Sifat Mustafa (talk) 15:45, 16 February 2015 (UTC) Sifat Mustafa

@Sifat Mustafa: Hi, first, I want to thank you for trying to create S. N. Tripathi. Just remember, next time not to copy directly from a source, that's copyvio and not allowed as you must know by now. Just slow down and read the rules given in your welcome note. If you have problems or don't understand then try to get in touch with an experienced editor or ask someone to adopt you. They will help guide you through your work on Wikipedia. I wish I had done the same when I joined. After nearly a year and a half, I'm still learning! All the best. Kaayay (talk) 13:17, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the Barnstar for the article on Ahindra Choudhury. --jojo@nthony (talk) 06:24, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Kotwal Saab

Hello, I was wondering if you could improve this to start-C class? I think highly of the director.♦ Dr. Blofeld 09:28, 10 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi! Me too. Though Kotwal Saab is not one of his better films. Not seen it, but will do. I prefer his Chupke Chupke, Anand, Gol Maal, Khubsoorat, Guddi, plus a few more and Anuradha (for the songs). Don't know what C class entails but will try for a start. Kaayay (talk) 07:48, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

Chupke and Anand are superb yup, Gol Maal is good but i actually preferred Kotwal to Gol Maal. How can you possibly judge if you haven't seen it though LOL?♦ Dr. Blofeld 09:43, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

Dr. Blofeld LOL, a very good point. OK, will see it tonight and then hopefully not have to shoot you tomorrow. Are you watching sub-titled versions? Anand was the best emotively. Kaayay (talk) 10:20, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
Yes, fortunately Shemaroo have provided the subtitles on many of them :-)♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:15, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
Dr. Blofeld Is it OK for a start now? I thought Aparna Sen looked beautiful, Sinha was tempered... but something missing. A big boon that he had no leery-rapey villains, mothers strung over crocs etc. I think Hrishikesh Mukherjee was more refined in his use of a masala story. Kaayay (talk) 08:07, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
