message: A couple of points: I have read in George Dunbar's History of India that the correct name is Raja Bir Bal and that his original name was Mahesh Das (as opposed to Birbal and Maheshdas). Any confirmation? DevanJedi 00:36, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

message: Someone ought to write on the legacy of this person, regardless of whether he is real or fake. Talk about the stories for children, maybe even the cartoon. I think this article can go a lot further. Why am  not writing it? There's got to be someone who knows better than me! Atrivedi (talk) 23:28, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Legacy Section

message: The article has conflicting information on the birth place of the character "Birbal". Picture states " Ghoghara, Sidhi district of Madhya Pradesh, India" and the article section of "Early years" specifies it as Narnaul , of Haryana. 
Secondly the information floating in this page is completely without references. I hence propose deleting the page as the existence of this page questions the authenticity of Wikipedia.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Truehistoryonly (talk • contribs) 14:06, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The solution is not deletion. It is adding references. Removed "Some historians reckon Birbal is a work of fiction. Akbarnama does not mention of Birbal's existence. However few Indian historians do state existence of Mahesh Das as a poor Brahmin to have been born to Gangadas and Anabhadevi in Trivikrampur in 1528." Multiple secondary sources like  attest to Birbal. Exactly which noteworthy historians claim Birbal is fiction? --Redtigerxyz  Talk  17:21, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

message: For the context, see my previous section titled "CM NAIM".
Content attributed specifically to CM NAIM and and Vicki K. Janik edited essay of Karen Treanor is all junk, none of these are peer reviewed journals or respected authors, search on them showed no academic or acceptable quality work, CM NAIm has showed tendency to distort and only karen Treanor shows up as obscure writer of 1 book on short fictional stories. their work is not of standard, not based on research, their reference list is low quality and short, and lacks critical analysis. Editor who edited Birbal article heavily used these two low quality references CM NAIM and Karen trenor to communalize the birbal article with heavily biased POV with islamic slant. I further suspect one of the editor is using two accounts to game the system, he is likely same editor who introduced these unaceptable edits to bribal article. I will remove it by tomorrow, let me know if anyone wish to offer help or suggestions to rewrite or to provide better sources.

: I don't see anything wrong with using CM Naim or his article as a source. I have made some changes to the section. Please have a look. If you still have objections, please list them specifically. I also don't see any mention of a Karen Trenor or Treanor in the article.--Cpt.a.haddock (talk) (please ping when replying) 13:17, 24 May 2017 (UTC)
