[edit] Need for Revision
This article contains a lot of information that needs to be properly arranged and presented with citations and with a neutral point of view (NPOV). Unfortunately, I don't have the necessary resources (to verify claims/for citations) to do this myself. Too many legends are passed as facts without citations and in a manner that does not befit an encyclopaedic article. In case anybody should want to call me a typical nitpicker, I should make it known that I have just done a complete revision/edit of the article (going through the whole text several times) for grammatical and syntactical errors spending about an hour and a half. ;) - Vishruth 01:52, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mother-tongue
I have always heard that Raghavendra Swami was a Kannadiga. However, there seems some doubt among people I know as to whether he was a Kannadiga or a Telugu. Can anyone clarify this?
His family moved south after the decline of the vijayanagara kingdom. His mother tongue should be kannada though the rulers of the area he lived were telugu (Nayaks of the splintered Vijayanagara empire) and the regional language was tamil. All his teachings and writings were in sanskrit which acted as the common language at that time. There is a sizible amount of kannada speaking people in Tamil Nadu who speak kannada with a tamil accent. They should be decendents of people like Raghavendra Swami. --Gthorvey (talk) 10:53, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Date discrepancy
The text says he lived from 1595 to 1671; while the categories give 1601 to 1672; what are the correct dates?--FeanorStar7 (talk) 13:48, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
