Talk:Jyoti Basu

message: User: Ashis Ray Soman, you must stop bhandalising pages. We are supposed to write only Communist propaganda, not facts.
 Soman, I do not understand your reversion .  Jyoti Basu's full name is in fact Jyotirmoy Basu. The MoS clearly says that his full name should be introduced in the lead section and all subsequent references should be only to the surname. That is what I was trying to follow. — Ravikiran 10:10, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: In that case, it shoyld be mentioned in the lead. However, it should not be used in the rest of the article (as he is more commonly known as just Jyoti Basu). A.K. Gopalan's full name was Ayillyath Kuttiari Gopalan Nambiar, but in article text the short, more commonly used naming is used. --Soman 10:14, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry. My fault. Jyotirmoy Basu was another CPI(M) leader, unrelated to Jyoti. — Ravikiran 10:19, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Copyright problem removed 

message: This article clearly needs some work to tidy it up and to rectify the fulsomeness of tone. On the other hand, the importance assigned to it by some of the projects is shocking and a clear sign of ethnocentric bias. How can a man who ruled one of India's most important states for 23 years and was a founder of the CPI(M) count as of low importance to the Socialism project? It would be just as plausible to argue that Basu was the most important and successful Marxist politician anywhere in the world in the second half of 20th century.Sjwells53 (talk) 19:10, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Outrageous Assessments of Importance

message: I'm surprised that the edit on Jyoti Basu presiding over the state's industrial decline is being removed. I find it surprising that someone even disagrees with this well established fact. A simple Google search points us to articles which illustrate the point.
I share a few of the links here:
