Talk:Bismillah Khan

message: I felt very sad by seeing the news. I had just put the current INCOTW tag on the main page and then saw the news. We owe it to the maestro. Please make this article a GA if not FA. I will chip in on Saturday and Sunday. - Aksi_great (talk - review me) 07:35, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. I have started some work and whipped the article into a basic form (See my Tasks section on this page). Any help/ criticism would be helpful -- Mayuresh 09:20, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Thanks for this text (ermm .. PDF). It has some good stuff on the Shehnai as well. As for this article being a copy of the PDF, i would like to take it as a compliment. Given the fact that i am seeing this PDF for the first time and i was one of the people who helped cleanup the article. I find it quite flaterring that we were able to do a decent job :) -- Mayuresh 07:48, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Here are the links which support my earlier edits that the Ustad played Shehnai for the song "Ye Jo Des Hai Tera" of Swades:

http://www.hinduonnet.com/fline/fl2317/stories/20060908002902800.htm</br>
http://www.dimdima.com/news_room/show_archives.asp?q_aid=18&q_title=Bismillah%20Khan%20_end%20of%20an%20era</br>
Many blogs also claim the same. But at the same time, many other sites (e.g. smashits) claim that some B. Madhu has played Shehnai. Can someone find whether Ustad actually played Shenai for this song? --APandey 18:47, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, its a tricky situation! The official website of Swades doesn't make a mention of him. If he really had played the shehnai for a song in Swades, they'd have marketed this fact or at least mentioned in the website. This is the page from the official site which has got names of the complete crew : http://www.swades.com/completecrew.html. Go to the MUSIC CREDITS section, the credit for the shehnai for the song is given to Madhu. Jay 05:22, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Bismillah Khan's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "IT":
From Abdul Ghaffar Khan: 
From Pranab Mukherjee: 
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. Feel free to remove this comment after fixing the refs. AnomieBOT⚡ 14:14, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
