Indians vs Indian Americans[edit]

I feel like this article is a weird mix of Indian (from India) and American (native American) politicians. I think they should be separated into Politicians of Indian descent and Politicians of Native American descent. Use names for these articles anyway you want but it was a quick way of showing the difference. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.190.89.139 (talk) 02:18, 30 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Amit Singh name is wrongly hypertexted to a cricketer[edit]

A wrong information is provided on this page.Amit Singh name is wrongly hypertexted to a cricketer.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.252.167.182 (talk)

Indeed, and I have removed the entry as it seems unlikely that the correct person is notable. --JBL (talk) 22:52, 18 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Missing Prakash Narain, M.D., Indian-American mayor of City of Cypress, from this list[edit]

I'm not sure how to add this line to the list. The information can be verified by the City Clerk at the Cypress City Hall in Cypress, California, and through several articles published over the last 8 years. Please advise or add the following for me: 

 o Dr. Prakash Narain, 2010 & 2013 first Indian-American mayor in Southern California for City of Cypress, California; elected to Cypress City Council, November 2006 and reelected November 2010; first Indian-American physician mayor

Add another name to the list[edit]

Hello,

How do I go about adding another political figure of Indian descent in USA? Will be happy to share any reference details etc.

Since this is Wikipedia, you can do it yourself! However, if the person does not already have a biographical article on Wikipedia, then you should not add them (because this list is a list of Wikipedia articles). Also, if that person does have a Wikipedia article, but it does not specifically mention that they are of Indian origin, then it would raise the question of providing an appropriate reference for that piece of information. (You can read our guidelines for what constitute acceptable references here.) --JBL (talk) 21:01, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your quick feedback. So of I understood this correctly, first the Biographical wiki article would need to be created and then referenced for Indian origin to be added here. Thanks. Harris myca (talk) 02:04, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that's right. --JBL (talk) 20:18, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
