[edit] I reverted some of your edits
Hullo, I thought I would identify myself as the culprit.
When you added yet another name to the list in the Bollywood article, I thought, "enough is enough", and removed the whole list. We can't list everyone, and if we pick a few, someone is going to feel that there's favoritism. So perhaps better not to have a list.
As for the edits to independent cinema -- I had to disagree with your reclassification of it as internationally recognized or award-winning cinema. That gives the foreigners too much power! What makes cinema independent is the funding mechanism (government or private fundraising, outside movie industry), low budget, and use of no-name actors. That would be true of films that never made it to film festivals outside India.
However, I did see the point of your edits removing all the hype re Mira Nair, so when I reverted, I honored your removal.
I hope I haven't discouraged you. Indian cinema is such a huge subject, and there's still so much work to do. Please come visit Wikipedia:WikiProject Indian cinema, sign up, meet everyone else, and help us make the Indian cinema articles a useful resource. Zora 18:29, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Vijaya Mulay Gangubai Hangal.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Vijaya Mulay Gangubai Hangal.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. feydey 14:13, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] License tagging for Image:Vijaya Mulay.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Vijaya Mulay.JPG. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 17:08, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
