I would like to change the phrasing of these lines " Mangalore ranked India's 13th place in top business destination and in Karnataka it is second after Bangalore. Mangalore is growing like Dubai of South India in terms of highrise buildings & skyscrapers. The city houses some of the tallest buildings in South India. India's first 3D planetarium with 8K resolution display is located in the city" to make it sound more academic. Wikivaith (talk) 12:48, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

English is not official/administrative language of Mangalore. 
As per Kannada Language Comprehensive Development Bill, 2022 , Kannada is solo official language of Karnataka. UnitedUK (talk) 19:29, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

What I think should be changed (format using {{textdiff}}): Change "aministrative" to "administrative" in section on languages.
Why it should be changed: Spelling error
References supporting the possible change (format using the "cite" button):

Mangalore has witnessed several periods of religious persecution throughout history, impacting different communities at various times.


### Persecution of Mangalorean Catholics (1784–1799)
During the rule of Tipu Sultan, Mangalorean Catholics faced severe persecution. In 1784, following Tipu Sultan’s conquest of Mangalore, approximately 60,000 Catholics were forcibly deported to Seringapatam, where they endured forced conversions, imprisonment, and executions. Several churches were destroyed, including Milagres Church (Mangalore), Rosario Cathedral, and St. Joseph’s Church. Many survivors returned only after Tipu Sultan’s death in 1799.


### Attacks on Hindu Temples
Similarly, Hindu communities in Mangalore faced temple destruction and forced conversions. Several temples, including the Kadri Manjunath Temple and Sri Venkataramana Temple were damaged or attacked. The Sringeri Sharada Peetham, a significant Hindu monastic institution, was looted and desecrated, leading the Maratha Peshwa to fund its restoration.
These events have shaped Mangalore’s historical and religious landscape, influencing cultural and communal dynamics in the region. Calmjelly24 (talk) 04:02, 6 March 2025 (UTC)

There are many information on this page are far from reality. kanndigas are really trying hard to Kannadize the Tulu names of the city and villages. The significance of Mangalore is known nationally and internationally. Some people are deliberately trying to impose Kannada language and culture on the history and name of Mangalore. Please provide me access to correct the mistakes Ssniddodi16 (talk) 11:27, 29 May 2025 (UTC)

Ssniddodi16 changed his name to Renamed user 6aaf1389a0e415c9af0ac604f1f678bf which was then locked. - Arjayay (talk) 21:56, 9 October 2025 (UTC)

Mangalore was renamed Mangaluru by the Karnataka Government on 1 November 2014. Wikipedia uses the WP:COMMONNAME in English, not the WP:OFFICIALNAME, so did not, initially, change the name.  After several discussions over the intervening years, in April 2025, it eventually agreed to rename the article by a 7-0 consensus, as clearly shown in the section above.  Please respect that consensus. - Arjayay (talk) 16:29, 8 October 2025 (UTC)
