- ... that in 2001, around 64% of the total films produced in Malayalam were of the soft porn variety? Source: https://www.coursehero.com/file/201819931/The-Spectral-Duration-of-Malayalam-Softpdf/

Created by Thilsebatti (talk). Self-nominated at 06:02, 6 October 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Malayalam softcore pornography; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
- This is not a review, but I have a few comments about the hook. It's a good one, but you'd better cite to the DOI as a scholarly paper, because we otherwise can't be sure of the kibd of source we are dealing with. Secondly, the paper says that
The year 2001 marked the high tide of soft porn production, when out of the 89 films released, 57 were soft-porn sizzlers
, but this is 64% and not "more than 70%". I also modified the hook so that the "Malayalam cinema" wikilink is less WP:EASTEREGG-like and closer to what a reader will expect to click. Szmenderowiecki (talk) 09:01, 7 October 2023 (UTC)

- Full review needed, since previous commenters have not returned in two weeks. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:02, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- Long enough, new enough. ALT0 short enough, cited, and interesting. No maintenance templates found, no neutrality problems found. QPQ unnecessary and image unsubmitted. I'm concerned about plagiarism; in many cases, sentences are almost identical to the source; as an example, "sexuality are at the heart of the film and every other character is insignificant" appears in both films, and so does "of the women in these films are stereotypically […] similar situations where the heroines are […] to be at least 25 years old". I'd like to see these and others addressed.--Launchballer 07:55, 26 November 2023 (UTC)
- @Thilsebatti: Can you address the above please? Z1720 (talk) 03:07, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Z1720:, the article is undergoing a major edit by guild of copy editors. I hope Wracking will eventually fix the plagiarism issues. Thilsebatti (talk) 03:28, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
- Hi there, sorry for my delayed response. Copyright issues are outside of the scope of a copy edit, and close paraphrasing can require intensive work to remedy. Some of this may be incidentally fixed by my copy edits, but I can't guarantee that this will be resolved by me.
- I recommend we wait to see if my copy edits sufficiently resolve any issues (I should be done in a few days at most), and then Thilsebatti can work to resolve other concerns. Wracking talk! 21:03, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
- Note: I've finished my edits. Wracking talk! 03:41, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
- There were a couple of bits that were too close, I've fixed these myself. There are however multiple unsourced passages and maintenance templates - could you address these?--Launchballer 04:04, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you Wracking and Launchballer. I haven't got much time to look into the article after completion of the copy editing. I will soon edit the article to meet the requirements and ping you once it is done. Thilsebatti (talk) 07:47, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
- In answer to your talk page message, there are still elements of this article that are unsourced, including the first paragraph of "Rise and peak" and the second paragraph of "The Shakeela wave".--Launchballer 13:23, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
