Talk:Kishore Kumar

message: this article is very cleverly biased against kishorekumar. remeber there was a lot of hue and cry about derogatory reference of kishorekumar in Wikipedia mohd rafi artilce. surely a very clever rafi plan has made an entry in wikipedia gropu of writers of  musicians in india. 
no mention is made of madhya pradesh govt confereed first lataangeshkar award to kishore and from the same year started new award in name of kishorekumar. these facts are so well knowm that citation is unnecessary.
also lot of space is wasted on discussing eccentricities of kishorekumar but it is not mentioned that kishorekumar used to send money order to family of arunkumar every month. why so much space on eccentricites? no mention is made of marvellous singing attempts of kishore the great philosophical song "zindagi kasafar", velvet voice " ye jeevan hai", "acchalkwale" sang i  magical voice "aaanewala pal " a unique., " koi hota jisko apana " asad song which uses all 3 octaves.
versatility of kishore is not mentioned but on rafi s page i find personal nalysis and without citation versatlity of rafi is mwentioined.
such serious lacunae in a very famous personality of india has put Wikipedia's credibity down. 
very carefully the music writers of griup of wikipedia shoukld be kept away and the founder and top mqanagement of wikipedia should get the article rewrittemn and compare it with article on rafi.

thread_title: Conversion

message: why wikipedia biased gainst kishorekuamr. why after rafi ? time has proved kishorekumar more popular today than Rafi. he has transcended generations. Also memoraable philosophical soft amazing rendtions are done more by kishorekumar/. Rafi may be more versatile. but the amazing enditions of kishore is also a fact.
I truly believe that this article needs some cleaning up.  Some things don't sound like they'd be in encyclopedias, so this needs to just be reorganized.  Thanks!

message: Dear Editors! There has been a discussion on India Portal related to mentioning of caste of subjects. The point is that mentioning caste of people, who have nothing to do with their caste, is found to be unnecessary by few editors. Hence the caste of the subject person needs to be deleted from the biography. I am not deleting the caste as of now but am only posting this here so that the regular editors of this article are well aware of it beforehand and no edit-wars take place. For details of discussion held on the portal please refer Wikipedia_talk:Noticeboard_for_India-related_topics#Mentioning_caste_of_Individuals. Your views if any are welcome there or even here.  And.... as the reasons of exclusion of caste pointed out were "irrelavant to notability of subject person", "privacy of the subject person", "inclusion of caste is like branding individuals", etc. other information included in the article which also fall under these cases will also be removed after discussions. Examples of it included religion, non-notable spouse's and children's and parents' information, previous occupation, lived in places, non-notability related educational qualification, etc.  Your views on this are also welcome here or at the India portal. -Animeshkulkarni (talk) 17:09, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Not here, please. There is a community discussion taking place at WT:INB and I would advise people to read the entire discussion before forming an opinion because the above summary is incorrect. Nothing more need be said here. - Sitush (talk) 02:16, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

message: If the lead is considered distinct from the rest of article mainspace, then Ashok Kumar article must be hyperlinked in the Career section. —103.163.124.86 (talk) 00:38, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Not done: The article is already a little bloated with links (I am not commenting of if they are necessary, but merely pointing out there are quite a few). Duplicate linking is generally reserved if there would be an overt-navigational benefit for doing so per MOS:REPEATLINK. I do not believe that would apply here seeing as there is minimal content between the first mention of Ashok Kumar and the one you speak of. But, that's just me. Another editor is free to disagree.
