Konidela Kalyan Babu name source for Babu

Latest comment: 1 year ago7 comments2 people in discussion

@Ab207:, @DareshMohan, @Kailash29792:, @DaxServer: Can someone please tell from where do we have sources with birth name as Babu ? and why are we finding it extremely difficult to understand that popular names published in sources which are mirroring wikipedia articles. Babu is a nick name in Telugu as in Sobhan Babu, and Mohan Babu. Why are we illogically mixing screen names as credited in titles with birth names.

Fostera12 (talk) 02:48, 27 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Fostera12 The source is cited in the infobox.

He was credited with his birthname Konidela Kalyan Babu in his debut film. Then changed his name to Pawan Kalyan from the second film onwards. -- Ab207 (talk) 17:14, 27 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Ab207:. In his debut film, He was credited in the titles as just Kalyan, not kalyan babu. There is no babu in credits. I just checked. This issue is not about Pawan Kalyan, this we all know. This issue is about Babu. And I request you not to indulge in edit war without consensus from other editors, as there is no source on babu. The source you are talking about is related to birth details.

Fostera12 (talk) 16:08, 28 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Fostera12 Kindly check the source again. I clearly says "The actor's original name is Konidela Kalyan Babu but he changed his name to Pawan Kalyan." That should be enough unless you can provide a better source to prove your point. Regards -- Ab207 (talk) 17:01, 28 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

That is mirroring of wikipedia yaar, we cant accept that Fostera12 (talk) 17:02, 28 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

But this issue is plain mirroring of wikipedia, and Babu is not part of birth names in Mahesh Babu, and Pawan Kalyan, and this is a fact. There is no involvement from other editors doesn't make your point agreeable. There is no source for their birth names. This is a fact. The source is wrong. Fostera12 (talk) 17:14, 28 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Fostera12 There are Telugu sources as well which don't mirror Wikipedia. You cannot simply call a source wrong without better sources. -- Ab207 (talk) 17:17, 28 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Occupations order

Latest comment: 1 year ago2 comments2 people in discussion

The current order is "actor, filmmaker and politician". I think the order should be "actor, politician and filmmaker" as political role is more prominent than film making — DaxServer (t · m · c) 14:38, 31 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

It totally makes sense... Jayanthkumar123 (talk) 16:23, 3 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

@DMacks Can you enable edit access for the page? I intend to fix some tags (vague, unclear statements), occupational order, and add some references. Nikh Nori (talk) 07:49, 5 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Nikh Nori, I reduced it to semi-protection, so you should be able to edit it now. I'll keep an eye out for others' disruption. DMacks (talk) 17:31, 5 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
