Rabindranath was not an Indian polymath, he was a Bengali polymath[edit]

common sense Ishrak Sadman (talk) 20:50, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting bit to add[edit]

[1]

He's apparently beloved in Korea as a Korean independence activist. Potentially worth a mention in his article. Note that the category Category:Foreign supporters of Korean independence exists, although under WP:CATDEF we probably shouldn't apply that category to him. 104.232.119.107 (talk) 02:00, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[2] Another interesting article. There's apparently a Tagore Society of Korea. 104.232.119.107 (talk) 02:05, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
