New age thinker

Jiddu Krishnamurti is clearly the most prominent bearer of this name - he is a world famous new age thinker and is often known only as "Krishnamurti" - as if he was the only Krishnamurti. Even if this is biased, it is true that many people will search for him purely by that name and there needs to be a way for his name to be made prominent in such a search. - Wwallacee (talk) 09:37, 17 June 2017 (UTC) Wwallacee (talk) 09:37, 17 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

How people search for anyone is immaterial when compared to this: what matters is Wikipedia policy on neutrality and objectivity. Other people may have equally valid opinions on who the most prominent bearer of a fairly common given name might be. I think you need a much wider and deeper consensus to prominently display Jiddu Krishnamurti at the top - especially since there is already a properly indexed bio page in place, and one with a different nomenclature to boot. Secondly, the description of him as a "new age" thinker could also be disputed. 72.43.99.146 (talk) 15:48, 19 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
