Picture[edit]

What about a picture of this guy?? Manny 00:37, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Date of birth[edit]

His date of birth is stated differently in sources. Oneindia.in reported his date of birth as 1 February, 1957.[1]. India Today reported his date of birth as 1 February, 1960.[2] So both agree on the month and day, but not the year. How shall we state this, if at all, in the article? --Geniac (talk) 05:35, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

And The Times of India reported no specific date of birth, but that he was 57 as of April 28, 2014.[3], which would mean he was born in 1956 or 1957. So how shall we state his DOB, if at all, in the article? --Geniac (talk) 02:12, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Category[edit]

@Gotitbro: HI, it is regarding this. Since he is part Turkmen, so technically the category should be Category:Indian people of Turkic descent, but it was deleted, now we have Category:Indian people of Turkish descent. Turkish are people from modern / historical Turkey. Any ideas? - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 12:46, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Fylindfotberserk: Yes, I guess Category:Indian people of Turkmen descent is more apt. Feel to create and replace this cat with it. Cheers. Gotitbro (talk) 17:25, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Gotitbro:, Created and moved. I've added a few parent CATS. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 17:42, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
