A great work. more to be added about the fights AKG had done towards the betterment of the poor people of the country

Its seems with Susheela was AKG's 2nd marriage.Any clues?I'll write once I come across something.--Sahodaran 04:34, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

I dont think AKG had association with Khilafat Movement . His participation in the Guruvayoor Sathyagraham should be added in the article. His autobiography can be checked for most of these details . Bharatveer 06:08, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Move to A. K. Gopalan

I don't know whether this is supposed to be a discussion, but I completely agree with the move. Tintin (talk) 12:36, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

My suggestion was to move it to A.K. Gopalan, in line with South Indian naming conventions. --Soman 13:33, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Is there a seperate South Indian convention ? I was under the impression that the "space between initials" format is for all articles and have moved some articles from the other format to this in the past. Tintin (talk) 04:43, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
Well, I meant a general South Indian naming convention not a wikipedia naming convention. In any case, there should not be a space between the initials, neither in this article nor in others. --Soman 06:17, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
There was a discussion a few months back in another wikipedia project where I am involved in about the naming convention. Somebody then discovered a policy discussion where the majority had agreed with the space format (discussion, mind you, not an official policy - as of then atleast) and WP:CRIC decided to use it that way. I am not able to find it now and am still looking. (Wikipedia:Naming conventions has too many subpages.)
If there is no standard for India/S India/Malayalam articles, it may be nice to initiate a discussion in one of the project pages so that the articles will have a uniform format. I don't really mind either one except that now I have got used to the space format. Tintin (talk) 08:04, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Agree to Move.--Sahodaran 03:50, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the debate was Move to A. K. Gopalan. Space between initials is customary except where justification can be provided for an exception. See WP:NCP. —Wknight94 (talk) 12:21, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

Ayillyath Kuttiari Gopalan Nambiar → A. K. Gopalan – In South Indian nameusage, full names are rarely used in newsmedia, litterature or conversation. — Soman 12:09, 16 August 2006 (UTC) -- tariqabjotu 00:39, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Modification I added the space to "A.K." per naming conventions. I have no vote to cast here. -Justin (koavf)·T·C·M 02:36, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
Can you point us to the page which mentions that. We are a little bit confused about whether there is a universal/project based convention for it. Tintin (talk) 04:59, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Aren't there usually no spaces between initials like that? Wouldn't "A.K." be more correct than "A. K. "? TJ Spyke 07:30, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Question of Sino-Indo Conflict of 1962

there seems to be a little confusion with regard to the position of the indian communists in the Sino-Indo Border War of 1962 for as is well documented the CPI supported the Chinese claim —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.178.183.96 (talk) 19:48, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
