Removing unsourced or poorly sourced additions

Someone has added a bunch of unsourced or poorly sourced material, which I have deleted. The material is from unreliable blogs and other websites. Thanks. 109.255.71.203 (talk) 14:54, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

Also deleting mention of a book that doesn't exist. 109.255.71.203 (talk) 14:55, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous. If such material is repeatedly inserted, or if there are other concerns about edits related to a living person, please report the issue to the biographies of living persons noticeboard. 109.255.71.203 (talk) 14:59, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

Also deleted information about an alleged "associate". There is no other wikipedia article that attacks someone because of their associate. 109.255.71.203 (talk) 15:03, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

Revert name change

Kripalu Maharaj → Jagadguru Kripalu Maharaj – Jagadguru Kripalu Maharaj is the name by which he is most commonly known, and has become his de facto name, and there are other people with similar names which would create confusion. 109.255.71.203 (talk) 10:30, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

The naming convention has already been discussed: [1]

"Jagadguru Kripalu Maharaj" gives 60,000 results [2] "Kripalu Maharaj" only gives 18,200 results [3]

Jagadguru is an ordained religious title, not an honorific, and he is so widely known as "Jagadguru Kripalu Maharaj" that it has become his de facto name.

There are other prominent Kripalus and Swami Kripalus and a Kripaluji Maharaj. This would create confusion about who is who. "Jagadguru" is the central point that this Kripalu Maharaj is known for, and the main thing that people would want information about or search for, and a central theme of this article, and as pointed out above, passes the google test for popularity, and has been featured twice on the English wikipedia home page only in relation to the "Jagadguru" title. Therefore, it is necessary to reflect that in the title.Lotusjuice (talk) 08:51, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Referring to specific policy, the Titles and honorifics section of the Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(Indic) page says: "Generally, titles and honorifics should not be used either in the article body or when naming an article. However, exceptions may apply to individuals who are widely known by an honorific name or with a title." I believe and have shown that this is the case for Jagadguru Kripalu Maharaj 109.255.71.203 (talk) 10:06, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Obviously he will not be confused with anyone with the name, so there is no need to add a title that is not even used in some cases. Unless the purpose of the article is actual self-promotion or a COI bio publishing. Wikid^as© 11:00, 19 April 2012 (UTC)
