[edit] Phone numbers

What are the landline numbers to KBC3?

1904-424-4424-0(1/2/3/4) and 190-4424-78270-0(1/2/3/4) Known 19:40, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Spiliting the Section of the list of Hotseat Contestants of KBC3

Although I already spilt the section, i just wanted to know what other people think about this action. Anyway, I beleive it should be separated because although it is related to the KBC article it still needs its own section.... think about it, if this show continues for about a year or two or even more, the whole list will interfere with the other necessary info about the KBC article. So in this case, I have already started a new article for this list. If you disagree, please have your say in this discussion. Thank You :) --Bhavesh Chauhan 01:45, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Good to see people are contributing

It's nice to see that people are contributing to the "hotseats contestants of KBC3" section that I had started a few days ago - Please keep the format the same for all days and contestants. Anyway, keep up the contributions and edits to expand this article, and share your knowledge to the whole world for free using Wikipedia :D --Bhavesh Chauhan 02:53, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Commercial external links

Need to remove the commercial links from xternal links. I am going to remove it and report to any admin. Kittu 09:00, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] This Article Needs Images

Some images in this KBC article would sure be nice to the viewers of this article. I suggest adding the logo, a picture of the old host Amitabh Bachchan and an image of Shahrukh Khan hosting the show. Images of the Crorepati winner such as Harshwardhan Navathe, Brajesh Dubey and Ravi Saini are also preferred. Thank You! :D --Bhavesh Chauhan 17:27, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Numbers

A small thing but it is confusing. Why are the numbers listed beyond 5 digits, divided by 2 commata and later 3? For instance "Rs. 2,00,00,000" should be "Rs. 20,000,000". Same goes for the other numbers and the numbers listed in the List of Hotseat Contestants of KBC3 article. Could these be fixed? Or ist that how they are supposed to be listed according to Indian currency (Rupee)? They are confusing. --Çiddlər 12:36, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Never mind, I looked it up. Sorry! --Çiddlər 08:35, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Where did you look this up? It is rather confusing. I don't know whether Rs. 1,60,000 is meant to mean 1,600,000 or 160,000. -86.146.46.45

It's meant to mean 160,000 rupees. just ignore the commas. Bhavesh.Chauhan 03:51, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] no need

There is no need to seperate the list of KBC hotseats names from this article. Kittu 05:32, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] KBC 1 and 2

I think the page is shapingup quite nicely, but I'd like to point out that KBC 1 and KBC 2 both have been more or less ignored in the article. KBC 1 and 2 deserve much more in the article than the passing mention they've got right now. SRK's inclusion in the show has changed a lot of things in the show, yes, but the first two series should also be adequately covered. xC | ☎ 06:57, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

I don't really understand what you mean, but i do have a feeling that KBC 1 and 2 have somewhat been ignored. Unfortunately, Wikipedia wasn't around when KBC 1 boradcasted. Not many KBC watchers of viewers contributed to this wikipedia article with information about KBC 1 and 2 because:

1) Wikipedia wasn't as popular to the Internet population back then.
2) Media and Internet coverage for KBC 1 and KBC 2 was rather weak 4-7 years ago and some of the information that was' KBC 1/2-related' aren't avaliable anymore.

I have gave it my best at expanding the article with all my knowledge of KBC, but I also rely on other editors to contribute to the article with KBC 1/2 information, but not many people are motivated and I don't think there's much to say really. Anyway, I don't believe I have added much about SRK - "inclusion in the show has changed a lot of things in the show, yes," - in fact, the majority of the article talks about the rules, lifelines and notable celebrity guests. there's hardly anything describing the changes of the show on SRK's arrival so I don't quite understand what you mean by adequatly covering information about KBC 1 and 2 since there isn't much to write about them as the information has already been written. --Bhavesh.Chauhan 00:29, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
