Can somebody check the population figure and update it? thanks!

I have applied the infobox:india_city to the statistics about the city, Most of the figures were obtained from the city data for Managalore from the census india website. Please feel free to update, modify the figures when more accurate figures are available. --IMpbt 15:08, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] appalling

It's been about 6 months now since I completely overhauled this article once over due to blatent infringements of WP:NPOV, and it's been a few months since I last checked the quality of the article. I cannot believe how much rubbish has found its way in without being reverted - pretty much every sentence after the opening section has some sort of POV being pushed about how great Mangalore is, or how much so and so will make Mangalore a great city or something along these lines. What is worse is near the end of the article - several sections that are just lists of places - their inclusion violates WP:NPOV, WP:CITE, WP:NOR and WP:MoS. I've scrapped as much as I can be bothered to do now, but there is tonnes still left to be done. It's in a very poor state, and I have a discerning feeling it might be in need of yet another complete overhaul. DJR (T) 17:11, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

  • I agree with DJR, from time to time someone comes and randomly dumps some info in the article. It will be filled typos, no spaces between words sometimes. It is like someone coming and shi**ing all over the place. Please take care while making your edits. DJR I have made some significant overhauling in the industry section. Let me know if it is okay. Will do somemore when I get the time--PremKudvaTalk 06:22, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
