Editing S L Bhyrappa Wiki Entry

I notice several inconsistencies in style and language. Please discuss this entry here before posting. Bdeepu 09:40, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Factual accuracy disputed

1. "Most of his novels have gone for several reprints which is very uncommon in Indian novel world." This observation in the section on popularity is false. In Malayalam some of the novels of O.V. Vijayan, M.Mukundan, Anand, M.T. Vasudevan Nair and many other novelists have gone into more than ten reprints. O.V. Vijayan's Khasakkinte Itihasam has seen over fifty reprints.
2."Bhyrappa is widely regarded as one of India's foremost modern-day writers." This is a very doubtful assertion. Bhyrappa's popularity does not extend beyond Karnataka and Maharashtra. He is known in other parts of India among writers and enthusiasts as a Kannada writer, not as "one of India's foremost modern-day writers."
3. "Most of Bhyrappa's prominent novels (Vamshavruksha, Tabbaliyu Neenaade Magane, Parva, and Saartha) have strong roots in ancient Indian philosophical tradition." This is not a fact, but a claim. Bhyrappa draws some of his subject-matters and themes from ancient Indian texts, which does not mean that he has "strong roots in ancient Indian philosophical tradition." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wilfredsimon (talk • contribs) 11:02, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Someone has added and has highlighted "He also critisizes Christianity" in Controversies section, which has no citation at all. While presenting such points about a person there should be a credible citation source.
