Talk:Gaana

message: The word Gaana is originally a Hindi word. The wiki page should then have meaning of this word and more pertaining to it.
The first section is very vague and skewed in the desecription of the word. There can be definitely references to regional usage of the word like below.
[As it gained momentum in the Chennai culture, it became inevitable for the troop singers to sing some Gaana songs in any orchestras]
but the primary definition of the word cannot be "Gaana is a type of song" as Gaana is a song.
I feel this page should be rewritten completely or edited into Gaana(Tamil) - (or something similar) if this page is specifically meant to describe a meaningless song as described in the rules.
I can gladly volunteer to edit the Gaana page to describe more broadly the meaning of the word.
Please let me know what you guys think.
Thanks

Talk:Ganesh Hegde

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) 13:34, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

message: Gharanas have a long history in Indian classical music and we need to add a lot here. According to some people Gharanas were started at the times of Mughals while some others state that they were there before the mughals. We need to add some sort of history to this page.

replies: text: It's been over 10 years since this comment, but I hope that I can still shed some light on this. It's commonly held by musicologists and historians that gharanas as a concept predate Mughal era, with dhrupad gharanas probably dating back to the 7th century. In khayal itself, Qawwal Bacchon Ka Gharana / Delhi Gharana (not to be confused with the eponymous tabla gharana) is regarded as the oldest gharana, probably formed under Amir Khusrau.

Talk:Binary File Descriptor library

message: :"[BFD's] licensing under the GPL [...] has tended to limit its use; [...]"
Please explain why. I understand the differences between licensing a library under GPL vs. LGPL, with an LGPL-licensed library having the advantage to link it against proprietary code legally. But I don't see a problem with licensing BFD with GPL, as it seems to me that BFD is a inhouse development-only related library that does not need to be incorporated into a publicized software product. Thanks, --Abdull (talk) 08:39, 17 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The statement should probably be whacked.  Although are probably non-free or BSD-licensed programs that are having to provide their own object file manipulation when they would rather be using BFD, I can't think of any actual examples.  BFD *could* be maintained as a generic system library a la curses and such, but the API would be very complicated and need continual revision to keep up with the arcana of different systems.  There is a bit of chicken-and-egg going on, since potential clients are discouraged by the messy API, but API cleanup would take time away from meeting the needs of the current clients.

Talk:Antonio Bazzini

message: New International Encyclopedia claims that he wrote an opera (Turandot) which was produced in 1867, long before the opera of the same name by Puccini was performed for the first time.  There is a mistake someplace.  GhostofSuperslum 20:40, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

message: This is from the Classical Archives website, citing the AllMusicGuide:
"During his lifetime, Italian virtuoso violinist Antonio Bazzini was as widely admired a composer as he was a performer; late in life especially, his serious-minded chamber music and orchestral music earned him pan-European recognition. He ultimately held a position of prominence at the Milan Conservatory, where he taught composition to the likes of Pietro Mascagni and Giacomo Puccini. Today, however, he is remembered almost exclusively for a single virtuoso showpiece for violin and piano, composed well before either of those two worthy pupils was even born—La ronde des lutins, Op. 25 (1852). 
La ronde des lutins (usually translated as "Dance of the Goblins" or "Round of the Goblins") is described by Bazzini as a scherzo fantastique for violin and piano. And fantastic it is: the miscreant goblins force the violinist to stretch his or her fingerpower to the limit (especially considering the 1852 year of origin)...."
A couple of items - first, according to this writer, his orchestral music in his later career was prominent, also.   Secondly, the legacy of remembered chiefly for La ronde des lutins - while if one looks around YouTube this seems to be the main piece of his that anyone cares about on there, is it actually his legacy achievement in today's music circles?

Talk:Bhadrachala Ramadasu

message: Kancharla Gopanna (Telugu: కంచర్ల గోపన్న) (c. 1620 – 1688), popularly known as Bhakta Ramadasu or Bhadrachala Ramadasu (Telugu: భద్రాచల రామదాసు), was a 17th-century devotee of the Hindu god Rama, a saint-poet and a composer of Carnatic music. He is a famous Vaggeyakara (classical composer)[a] from the Telugu classical era. He was born in the village of Nelakondapalli in Khammam district, and orphaned as a teenager. He spent his later years in Bhadrachalam and 12 years in solitary confinement at the Golconda prison during the Qutb Shahi-rule. Different mythical stories about his life circulate in the Telugu tradition. He is renowned for constructing the famous Sita Ramachandraswamy Temple and pilgrimage center on the banks of river Godavari at Bhadrachalam. His devotional kirtana lyrics to Rama illustrate the classical Pallavi, Anupallavi and Caranam genre composed mostly in Telugu, some in Sanskrit and with occasional use of Tamil language. These are famous in South Indian classical music as Ramadaasu Keertanalu.[citation needed] 2405:201:C017:900D:E951:537C:6C56:75CA (talk) 10:47, 18 January 2023 (UTC)
