Need list[edit]

It would be great, if a list can be provided. List is very easy to gather, if you have been to mayor's office, no idea if they were published online. And best if you arrange pictures, but that is optional. For now, a list will complete article. Bladesmulti (talk) 14:57, 24 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm currently sifting thru several sources. I've found a few sources, which I intend to bring into the article soon. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 15:24, 24 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Very nice. Bladesmulti (talk) 20:08, 24 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is, some articles claim that the current mayor is the fourth to be directly elected, some claim he was the fourth in all, I find that very confusing. If CCMC was a Municipal Corporation since 1980s, it must have more right? Rsrikanth05

Cite sources, it is obvious that sometimes governmental records are not updated, or well maintained online. Bladesmulti (talk) 06:15, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, unfortunately, two cities whose Mayors' articles I'm working on; Bangalore and Coimbatore are problematic. I don't see a list of mayors anywhere, and whoever I ask, whether on wiki, or other online forums, I cannot seem to find any proper listing. I can probably find a few sources that indicate that ABC was the nth Mayor and XYZ was the yth mayor and use that. Another question is, do I insert Robert Stanes as the Inaugural mayor? --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 07:13, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it can be like "During British rule", then "India(1947 - present)" Bladesmulti (talk) 07:53, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Will do. Thanks! --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 08:42, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Done Please have a look! :D --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 10:34, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Functions[edit]

I'd appreciate it if someone could help me get sources on the functions and duties of the Mayor. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 10:02, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
