Talk:N. Ravikiran

message: Pending legal processes, unsubstantiated defamatory items should not be posted with a view to disparage a person who has contributed substantially for decades. The section on allegations of Sexual harassment is being constantly added by miscreants right at the top, with intent to obscure everything else.  Such online vandalism must be prevented.Nayaki75 (talk) 03:18, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
thread_title: Unsubstantiated unresolved news

message: I am almost certain that this is mistitled. Chitravina is one of the several spellings of the instrument he plays, but its not part of his name. I believe someone was confused by a wording somewhere that they did not quite follow, and it is as if we put Jascha Heifetz at "Violin Jascha Heifetz". But I'm not expert on Indian naming customs, and perhaps there is some justification for this. - Jmabel | Talk 07:47, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: My knowledge of Carnatic music is quote limited but it may be difficult to have a universal standard for these things. Two other examples where this is done are Mandolin Srinivas and Veena Dhanammal both of which, IMO, are handled correctly. "Veena" Dhanammal was usually referred with the name the instrument as part of her name while "Mandolin" Srinivas, though he is pretty well-known by that name, redirects to U. Srinivas. I think this article should go the way of  Mandolin Srinivas. Tintin 08:09, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Ravikiran is popularly known as Chitravina Ravikiran.  But then, he is also known as Vichitravina Ravikiran  or Gottuvadyam Ravikiran etc., Vichitravina and Gottuvadya being the alternate names of the instrument.  And like Tintin points out, this is only similar to Mandolin Srinivas or Veene Dhannammal or Piteel Chowdiah or Veene Sheshanna etc.,.  So Chitravina Ravikiran and all similar articles should follow the Mandolin/U Srinivas example.  Sarvagnya 17:30, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

message: In this Indian name, the name Narasimhan is a patronymic, not a family name, and the person should be referred to by the given name, Ravikiran.
This line needs to be removed as it is vandalism and has no connection to the article. 103.72.207.213 (talk) 15:53, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: How is it vandalism? Is "Narasimhan" derived from a male ancestor's name, or not? Waggie (talk) 16:15, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

text: This is a standard template about Indian names (see Template:Indian name and its documentation).  The connection to the article is clear, whether or not it's appropriate, and it's definitely not vandalism.  If you think it's inappropriate, then feel free to reopen this request, but please explain your reasoning in detail.  –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 16:17, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Semi-protected edit request on 26 December 2018 

message: The entire section which states sexual alllegations are simply allegations and not proven in a court of law-It might be substantiated with media reportage but the content in itself holds no merit as allegations that are crimininal in nature need to be proven in a court of law and all media references provide little or no evidence from unknown and anonymous sources which cannot be accepted as it is. 103.72.207.213 (talk) 03:00, 27 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: The section is sourced to multiple reliable media sources. Anonymous or not, they are allegations and are presented as allegations only. The section does not claim they are true, and the denials by Ravikiran are included, as well. Waggie (talk) 15:38, 27 December 2018 (UTC)
