Decided to do this merge. As someone who knows nothing about this subject I can say I learnt something and I hope to have ironed out some of the POV. Although some people more knowledgable should read over it. MeltBanana 00:54, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

(above heading added on 2 April 2006) I think the article is pretty good now. I'd like to see it renamed, without the 'Lord' bit. He is usually called just Basava, or sometimes Basavanna. Imc 10:01, 22 October 2005 (UTC)

He was lord only not necessary to remove Lord Word , i think so...,

The use of "Lord" runs contrary to the way we've named South Asian saints. For example, we use Gautama Buddha, not "Lord Buddha". Similarly, we have Krishna, Vishnu, Shiva, and Mahavira, all without "Lord" prefixed. It seems logical that we do the same for Basavanna. -- Arvind 23:58, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Support move Septentrionalis 05:20, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Support move to conform with the naming policies generally followed in South Asia-related articles. -- Arvind 16:25, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
