Srikanth
This is Sriram, I want to nominate this article for deletion. This entry doesn't deserve a place in Wikipedia. And quite simply, the English is miserable and the contentb absolutely makes you cringe because it reeks of persona bias. An encyclopedia is supposed to provide information of good quality, this one looks like it was edited by a fourth-grade kid who was stoned.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Sriram sh (talk • contribs) 17:39, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
- Please try to avoid making personal attacks. — CharlotteWebb 01:33, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
Okay, so I am making personal attacks? It is one thing to provide information that's enlightening but what of statements like "He got his first flick in his first movie itself"? Could you please tell me what sense it makes? Also, Srikanth is , at best, a non-descript mediocre actor and no one requires good old Wikipedia to dig up info about some guy who hasn't heard of Gillette.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Sriram sh (talk • contribs) 11:21, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
Page move to Srikanth (Tamil actor)
Since there is another actor called simply "Srikanth" at Srikanth (Telugu actor), the article title Srikanth (actor) should not be used by any article, but point to the disambiguation page. I therefore moved this actor to Srikanth (Tamil actor) and fixed all links to point to this article (except for a very few which unambiguously meant the Telugu actor). This seemed appropriate at the time. While it still seems OK to me, I note that he has appeared in some Telugu — and other language — films. As such, I anticipate that there may be objections.
I have no particular attachment to the current article title; if anyone has a better suggestion for disambiguating between these two currenly active Indian actors knows simply as "Srikanth", please do come forward. However, Srikanth (actor) is not a suitable title for this or any other article as long as there are articles on Wikipedia for other actors known by the mononym "Srikanth". Personally I think the disambiguator Tamil actor is still fine; it's his main area of involvement. MegaSloth (talk) 13:00, 12 December 2018 (UTC)

Srikanth (Tamil actor) → Srikanth (Tamil actor, born 1979) – There are two actors of the same name. Both of them work in Tamil language films. Hence the birth-date is used to disambiguate them. TamilMirchi (talk) 20:24, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
- Support per nomination. Another option might be to restructure main title headers for articles delineating all three actors: Srikanth (actor, born 1979), Srikanth (actor, born 1968) and Srikanth (actor, born 1940), unless there is a consensus regarding Indian cinema of specifying performers from different regional and linguistic filmmaking factions. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 04:56, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

Birthyear
@Kailash29792:@Ab207: Is 1978 his birth year (1)? DareshMohan (talk) 06:08, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
- I would consider nettv4u a reliable source, so use it unless someone else says otherwise. Kailash29792 (talk) 06:12, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
- Given that the same page contradictorily says "DOB : 28-02-1979", I doubt it's reliability. -- Ab207 (talk) 08:26, 6 July 2022 (UTC)

Srikanth (Tamil actor, born 1980) → Srikanth (Tamil actor, born 1979) – The page was moved to this name without consensus. Birth year is 1979. DareshMohan (talk) 16:52, 6 July 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. >>> Extorc.talk 14:47, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

- Srikanth (Tamil actor, born 1979) → Srikanth (actor, born 1979)
- Srikanth (Telugu actor) → Srikanth (actor, born 1968)
- Srikanth (Tamil actor, born 1940) → Srikanth (actor, born 1940)
– Per @Roman Spinner:, all three of these actors did not limit themselves to acting in the language specified by the title. While the last two predominately acted in a single language, the first one should be changed. Srikanth (Tamil actor, born 1979) acts in two to three languages different languages per year, which makes the current name very confusing to say the least since he is also a Telugu actor. His films seems to be alternate between Tamil and Telugu. DareshMohan (talk) 01:38, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
