[edit] Incorrect Ken Parker link

The Ken Parker link is wrong (ie not the italian comic book character but should be the inventor/maker of the Fly guitar).

[edit] Gingger's connection to Shankar / Subramaniam

Where is the proof that Gingger is L Shankar's niece? There are articles claiming she is his niece e.g. http://www.signonsandiego.com/uniontrib/20070301/news_lz1w01god.html as well as articles claiming she is his "companion" and that they met in Spain e.g. http://www.the-south-asian.com/May2004/lshankarmusic.htm . There is no mention of her on the website "family" page of L Subramaniam (supposedly her father) http://www.indianviolin.com/family.htm

You are right that. And as per Wikipedia's policy Wikipedia:Citing_sources#Citation_templates, I am removing the reference to Gingger being Shankar's niece. -- Thaths 03:30, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

I posted the original question about her ambiguous relationship - but here Gingger confirms being L Subramaniam's daughter (and L Shankar's niece) http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Cities/Kolkata/I_had_to_impress_my_dad_/articleshow/2104394.cms so I am reinstating the reference to her as his niece Pklala

[edit] Shenkar

Although his PR guy, Nighttrippa, did not follow the rules and standards, and posted more of an advertisement then anything else, it was correct that "L. Shankar" now goes by the name "Shenkar", as seen in the credits of latter episodes of Heroes. -Lөvөl 07:42, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Thankt to that PR guy, Shenkar is now salted. I have requested unprotection so it can be redirected. --Edokter (Talk) 12:27, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] name conflict

Shenkar College of Engineering and Design in Israel is also referred to as "Shenkar" alone. I suggest that Shenkar should go to a disambiguation page. Coughinink 02:12, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

I have created a Shenkar (disambiguation) page and added links to and from it in both entries. As for whether Shenkar should go directly to a disambiguation page, I would like to hear from other editors of this page. -- Thaths 20:08, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
