message: From where is the Malayalam translation of the introduction to the Declaration of Human Rights sourced? The English text does not match the Malayalam text and means something slightly different. Words like 'antas' are inappropriate there. Indielov (talk) 15:58, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: i dont remember the exact website but its the common translation, see ml wiki for eg https://ml.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/അന്താരാഷ്ട്ര_മനുഷ്യാവകാശ_പ്രഖ്യാപനം AleksiB 1945 (talk) 08:06, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

message: Hello     ‎  , IP address 150.129.101.116 is repeatedly removing sourced content and including content that fits their views. You can compare the following for a sample - https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Malayalam&type=revision&diff=1091151253&oldid=1091128793. Such vandalism is being repeated by many other IP addresses and unfortunately some users too. Request you to block such users and help the true Wiki community. Thanks in advance!

message: I see some words in the Russian language which are very similar to Malayalam (words in the Russian patriot song "Svyashchennaya Voyna" - even the first word of the title of this song IS Malayalam). Even more intriguing is that there are words in South American languages that bear similarity to Malayalam. For example, the Aymara people of Bolivia sounds a lot like the Iyer people of Kerala / Tamilnadu ( Iyer Mar in Malayalam). And the Incan King who built Machu Picchu is King Pacha Kutti, . And many of these South American people have a goddess called Pacha Mama, who is currently well known to the South American Roman Catholic Church. Pls check out Malayalam's ancient links to these faraway peoples. Thank you Stuthi01 (talk) 23:21, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

message: A classical status  was given to malayalam by goverment of india  in 2013.  Now the most accepted view is malayalam originated from proto tamil malayalam and not middle tamil. So i have made neccesary edits to reflect these views. Jino john1996 (talk) 13:28, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Wikipedia follows the cited sources, not the whims of governments. You cannot change the article in a way that misrepresents the cited sources. MrOllie (talk) 13:49, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: What about sources that say malayalam came from proto tamil malayalam. Like govindakutty and  and then asher and kumari.  Jino john1996 (talk) 14:00, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

text: And recent findings like edakkal cave inscriptions are not reflected in this article. Jino john1996 (talk) 14:06, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Those sources are fringe views and not the mainstream. The most accepted view is Malayalam is derived from a Sanskritised western dialect of early Middle Tamil. It is primordial Malayali nationalists who say otherwise, including these fringe scholarly views. Metta79 (talk) 11:09, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Can you show an article after the discovery of edakkal cave inscriptions in 2012 about the origin of malayalam? 106.220.248.209 (talk) 10:11, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

message: The phonology table for consonants is incomplete, it should include alveolar /n/. It seems like the phonology table has been created on the basis of the writing system.  Ar.ml6 (talk) 14:12, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
