First of all, this link is not relevant in this page. Secondly, it's a spam. Every link added is a spam unless it is an official site, IMDb or some profile page of a person in a reputable newspaper. Shahid • Talk2me 10:41, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for letting me know :) - Kites77 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kites77 (talk • contribs) 09:19, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Request for detail

Section:Controversy

In 2006, at the London press conference for his film Krrish, Roshan said that he knew it was time to leave Shanghai and Hong Kong after six weeks of stunt training and go home when his eyes started "turning into little slits like the Chinese".[17]

Does anyone know what was the aftermath of the comment? I vaguely remember some protest being held, but any links to the same or other refs would be appreciated.

[edit] New child

There seem to be the makings of an edit war on this page.

First, I don't know any other sources, but the source provided by the anon clearly states Rakesh Roshan saying that Hrithik and his wife are expecting another baby. Putting that much of a line in seems fine by me.

Second, I don't agree with the expected in June part. Whenever the baby turns up, we can add in when he/she was born.

Last, having another independent source which states the same thing as the above would prove that indeed this is wide news and not just a rumour. Verifiability is always a good thing.

The baby hasn't yet turned up, so no need to write it. I really wish them all the best, but who can guarantee that this expected baby comes to the world eventually? Nobody. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, and writing in an encyclopedia that someone is expecting for a new child is definitely un-encyclopedic.
It is no one else's business if they are or are not expecting the joint of a new member to the family. Wikipedia is based on EXISTING facts. AFTER Suzane gives birth with God's help, we can mention it... Mmmm "In October 2007, the couple confirmed that they were expecting a new child and on June ..., 2008 she/they gave birth to... etc".
But adding it now is too early. Again, WP is not a news report channel, nor is it a sleazy gossip magazine.
If you disagree with me xC, please share.

Unless we have another independent source to confirm it, I would disagree with putting in all of this. I Googled "hrithik roshan new child 2007" and it came up with a lot of pages, but all the blog variety or which had blogs as sources. We can't add it in.
Agree with you, and kick out any such info from the page until we have some reliable source.

[edit] Cleanup critics comments

I've removed the unnamed critics opinions from the page-

  • without knowing the name of the critic, we cannot put it in (see WP:V - there is no way to verify what an anon says)
  • if there is no name, it might be a valid assumption that he/she is one of the hundreds of film critics that write up their own reviews and put it up on sites without some sort of screening for quality. In other words, he/she might be non-notable.

These concerns were raised during the recent Zinta FAC. Do not put back the anonymous critical reviews back into the article without further discussion on this talk page. Thanks xC | ☎ 22:23, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
