Marital status

Hi AradhanaSharon and other editors who have been on a run deleting content regarding the subject's marital status! I have been reverting your changes because you have either not backed your editing with a credible source or that you have assumed the content I have added is false. But, I have cited credible sources (newspapers, The New Indian Express and Bangalore Mirror) that clearly talk about the divorce having finalized. So, please refrain from deleting that content. If you find an article that says they have reconciled, please do add. But, do not delete the original content because "separation", "court order" and "alimony", as the sources cited show, has happened. Editor5454 (talk) 07:10, 18 February 2017 (UTC)

DOB

Since this page had been target of changes to DOB, do we know whether there are sources backing 1973? If so, then we will have to add both 1971 and 1973. If not, then nothing to be changed. -- DaxServer (talk) 15:48, 8 August 2021 (UTC)

Requested move 26 July 2022

Sudeep → Sudeepa – His stage name is now Kiccha Sudeepa and that is how he is credited in Kannada films. (Kempe Gowda, Vishnuvardhana, Maanikya, Ranna, here in Kotigobba 2, Hebbuli, The Villain, Kotigobba 3, and now Vikrant Rona). Those teasers and his Twitter account (here) mention both names. A similarly titled article Dhananjay (actor) was moved to Dhananjaya (actor).

1. See this: Google Sudeepa search.

1. Note He was only credited by this name (Sudeep no 'a') from approx. 1997-2010 and by Sudeepa from 2011 to present (in all Kannada films and some non-Kannada films). The name Sudeepa is also apparent in non-Kannada films such as Eega, Mudinja Ivana Pudi and Dabangg 3. Notable exceptions include Puli and Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy (both are not Kannada though), where he was credited as just Sudeep. As of late, he is credited in Kannada as Sudeepa as stated above.

• Oppose - I got over 360K hits for "Sudeep" with quote as opposed to a mere 20K for "Sudeepa" (your search), so the former seems to be the WP:COMMONNAME still. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 11:17, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

• Support. The reason for so much difference in the search might also be because Wikipedia still uses "Sudeep". So, articles continue to use that. Ajay Devagan & Devgn used to have similarly huge difference until Devgn became more common ( maybe partially after Wikipedia also changed it). " Sudeepa" seems better since the blue ticked twitter account ( which the actor uses) has "Sudeepa" . Further, in last 10 years, except 2 non Kannada movies, all uses "Sudeepa". Google search may not be accurate metric - it includes articles before 2011 also when Sudeep was correct. Further, general observation is that until wikipedia changes, most of the articles won't use it. Above all, when actor himself uses "Sudeepa" in most places, no harm in changing it since Google articles should be secondary source and the actor's official profile should be primary source.
