Name[edit]

Is Sadasivan a surname, or a patronymic? Should the subject of this article be referred to as Balaji (if it is his personal name and he has no surname) or as Sadasivan (if this is his surname)? — Cheers, JackLee ^–talk– 07:08, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, figured it out some time ago. — Cheers, JackLee ^–talk– 17:55, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Request for Comments[edit]

There is an RfC on the question of using "Religion: None" vs. "Religion: None (atheist)" in the infobox on this and other similar pages.

The RfC is at Template talk:Infobox person#RfC: Religion infobox entries for individuals that have no religion.

Please help us determine consensus on this issue. --Guy Macon (talk) 22:38, 25 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
