[edit] Name spelling

The article spells her last name as Ghosal, but its more commonly spelled as Ghoshal:

Almost all song credits also spell it with the h. So, I think the article should be moved to Shreya Ghoshal --soumtalk 14:19, 20 March 2007 (UTC)


Surely there isn't a need to have her name spelt in 'every' Indian language either - Bangla and Hindi should suffice.

[edit] NPOV

The article contains many PoV phrases and Weasel words, some of which I am pointing out:

  • "In Tamil, she has sung many songs. Her pronunciation is her greatest strength - her pronunciation of the zh syllable which is unique to Tamil is flawless" - (Tamil)
  • "Then she sang 2 great melodies in Balumahendra's Julie Ganapathy" - (Tamil)
  • "Some of her mesmerizing tracks in Kannada include" - (Kannada)

I still maintain, a near-complete rewrite would be the way to go. --soumtalk 14:38, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Agree big time with User:Soumyasch. This article needs a complete rewrite. Anyone up for it? Barathvk 00:15, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

I have made an attempt, anyone else want to make a second pass? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mskadu (talk • contribs) 21:55, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

Agreed, a lot of NPOV and weasel wording. Supertigerman (talk) 05:49, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

The following discussion is an archived discussion 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.


  • Shreya Ghosal → Shreya Ghoshal … Rationale: Her lastname is more commonly spelt as Ghoshal, not Ghosal (see above). As per, WP:Name, the most common usage is to be used as article title. --soumtalk 15:37, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment: Oops, it turns out that I made the initial move. Sorry about that. What was I thinking! Damn! Anyways, that move was wrong. --soumtalk 15:46, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Support. IMDB entry says "Shreya Ghoshal" and Google results also indicate that the "Shreya Ghoshal" is more commonly used. utcursch | talk 14:17, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
