message: Different sources say different things about his date and place of birth. If they are reliable then we have to show their opinion per WP:NPOV. Unless we have read every single source that refers to the issue, there is no way were can make a statement that a majority of the sources supports one view or another - that is original research. While it is true that we are allowed to give more weight to some sources than to others, I don't think it applies in this situation: we just report that there are differences of opinion. - Sitush (talk) 03:13, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

message: Hey , Ranjit Guha's Subaltern Studies: Writings on South Asian History and Society, Volume 1 (p. 134) says "according to one official report, he was born in Bhimavaram Taluk" which I clarified. It doesn't seem to make any mention of Bheemunipatnam. Hope you can clarify if I'm missing something.Thanks. --Ab207 (talk) 18:32, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Also, Template:Infobox person says birthplace shall be city, administrative region, country. No suggestion of district, so I tried to specify villages and administrative region. --Ab207 (talk) 18:35, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, thanks. i got a bit muddled by the edit summaries, which appeared to be speculating. - Sitush (talk) 20:13, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text:  Hey , you might also want to know that the corresponding Telugu article seems pretty confident about his birthplace. It says though his native village is Mogallu, Alluri was born at his grandfather's place, Pandrangi. However, it's based on an offline source which I can't verify it at this point. The Great Indian Patriots, Volume 2 by P. Rajeswar Rao does not disagree that claim, it only says "at his native village Mogallu" and "He belonged to Mogallu," at two instances without ever mentioning "born." -- Ab207 (talk) 20:40, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Might be worth digging further on that but NPOV is always likely to mean we have to show the other places. - Sitush (talk) 20:43, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, agree with that. --Ab207 (talk) 20:52, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Birth place 

message: In the Gudem Hills of Andhra Pradesh a militant guerrilla movement spread in the early 1920s – not a form of struggle that the Congress could approve. Here, as in other forest regions, the colonial government had closed large forest areas, preventing people from entering the forests to graze their cattle, or to collect fuelwood and fruits. This enraged the hill people. Not only were their livelihoods affected but they felt that their traditional rights were being denied. When the government began forcing them to contribute begar for road building, the hill people revolted. The person who came to lead them was an interesting figure. Alluri Sitaram Raju claimed that he had a variety of special powers: he could make correct astrological predictions and heal people, and he could survive even bullet shots. Captivated by Raju, the rebels proclaimed that he was an incarnation of God. Raju talked of the greatness of Mahatma Gandhi said he was inspired by the Non-Cooperation Movement, and persuaded people to wear khadi and give up drinking. But at the same time, he asserted that India could be liberated only by the use of force, not non-violence. The Gudem rebels attacked police stations attempted to kill British officials and carried on guerrilla warfare for achieving swaraj. Raju was captured and executed in 1924, and over time became a folk hero.
