I hope everybody understands the pupose of an encyclopedia is to have information on all subjects and makes easy read. Most entries on this page have nothing on whether the prominent person entered is dead or live, whether he or she lived in 20th or 13th century. This encyclopedia is open to everybody around the world, not just deshastha people so take your time to include the chronological information. Without giving the birthdates somebody not familiar with Deshastha community will be bored and go to another page.

A good format could be the one below:

  1. Sir Richard Branson (born 1950)
  2. Sir John Brunner, (1842-1919), chemicals
  3. Joseph Crosfield, (1792-1844), soap and chemicals
  4. Abraham Darby (c. 1678-1717), ironmaster
