 * Himesh clearly clarifies that 11th May was a mistake (watch at 8min 45secs). His birthday is on 23rd July. Here's the source: http://youtube.com/watch?v=cBNt25417IE

One of the most famous singer?
What makes his Himesh Reshammiya is one of the most famous singers in the history of bollywood ? -Mayuresh 15:12, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Section titles
Section titles needs to be wikified. right now they are not looking encyclopedic at all.

And what is that "Music Review" section doing? There shud be no "review" type section in an encyclopedia. Many people will have different opinion about his music/singing, so a music review will simply wont cope with npov. -69.88.3.140 08:06, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi there, my name as a HR fan is diehardHRfanatic. My Music Review Analysis section where I mentioned my website and orkut community link was deleted.

I would like the deleted section to be reconsidered or need advice by Administrators on how I can successfully mention links in the right places.

The basis of my appeal is that My music reviews are not just a biased point of view. I have analyzed each and every second of all his songs since his debut till date. I have described all his music arrangement, orchestration, beat effects, singing styles etc that display a maximum knowledge and understanding of his music to the best of my ability.

So may I politely ask that what is the point of breaking down his music to its very core elements in order to display the greatness of this musician, if I cannot contribute here so it can be of some use / help to those HR fans who haven't heard all his compositions till date or newer fans that he is acquiring by the day!

My recent edits
I thought I ought to explain the severe amount of culling I've just done on the article; after I was brought here when a user attempted to create a picture gallery article for this person.

I removed the Fan Club section as it was full of peacock terms and encyclopaedic. I removed the samples section as the samples did not exist. The images used on the article were blatant copyright violations; taken from another site and as such have also been removed. I trimmed down the awards section so it just contains awards he has won; there was no need to have each award in a section of its own; it simply makes it too long. Not knowing the subject matter I have no idea which awards are actually notable or not; so I have not removed any. I removed the selected songs section because there was no indication of how they were selected, or how they were notable. As it stands, to my eye, the article is still full of too many lists; singers he was worked with, etc. Someone with knowledge may wish to address the lists; and trim them to purely notable collaborations. Someone may also want to look at moving the filmography section to an article of its own. --Blowdart | talk 11:32, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Clean-up and removed unsourced and personal reflection kinda info from article
Just did a clean-up. Am moving sections from the article to here. In case they get sourced at some point of time, they can be moved back. For now, they'll have to remain on the talk page.

"He is a renowned new age and the most popular artist from India. His style of singing is unique and considered to be the most difficult to sing. His most popular studio album Aap Kaa Surroor which was his debut one became instantly hit and popular in 2006. One of his song Tera Surroor from the album became huge rage all over the nation."
 * From introductory paragraph

== Personal == He is firm believer in the God. And he has a true compassionate towards his family. He believes that his mother and father are the backbone for his grand success.He is married to Komal Reshammiya and they have a son called Swayam.
 * Last two sections with sweeping statements about his connections, how he is with his mother and belief in God!!

Work Type
Himesh Reshammiya is the only Indian artist who works continuously almost 18 hours in a day.It is to be believed that in one day he composes 4-5 songs. Many good producers appreciate his laborious hard work and consider that is why he is only able to deliver at once hit songs in the industry. Film stars like Sunil Shetty, Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan, Madhuri Dixit, Aadesh Shrivastav, Amitabh Bachchan, Tabu, Aishwaraya Rai Bachchan, SRK, Salman Khan, Ermaan Hashmi, Rajpal Yadav, Kunal Kamao are also included in his fan list and they too admit the fact that he is a versatile Rockstar.

He is responsible for preparing the new base of music since 2005, which today music composers are following. Legendary music composer Khayyam recently said in interview, in the recent age he considers Himesh Reshammiya and Vishal Shekhar as the only real music directors that has Indian melody base. prashanthns (talk) 05:07, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Copy-edit
An editor requested for the article to be copy-edited. There are some issues with the article.


 * Is "Rock" Gharana the same as "Rock" gharana?
 * Please use double quotation marks. That is Wikipedia's style guide.
 * Who or what is "Aashiq Banaya Aapne"? Please state this in the article. Also, why are there quotation marks?
 * What is Rage and rage? Is there a difference? If so, state it clearly in article. Please check the meaning using a dictionary to see if meaning is correct.

Thanks, Davtra (talk) 12:04, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

Reply

 * No, Rock Gharana was a team of contestants in the music show SaReGaMaPa Challenge 2007, so it must be spelled with a capital G.
 * I agree, this article's tone and style is highly inappropriate at the moment.
 * Aashiq Banaya Aapne is a movie, title should be in italics.
 * Actually the word is 'rage' with a small r, meaning 'a current fashion or fad'. This is again another example of the inappropriate tone being used in the article.
 * Some parts of the article are written like a fan page. The neutrality must be checked as well.
 * At the moment, I am adding Template:Tone to the article. -  M4nag3r(-)rC   [Reply]  11:58, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

shut up you himesh haters,go and listen to tera suroor song on Youtube and learn to respect this man and learn to respect his unique voice and music why do you himesh haters just type on the net if you go and say bad things about himesh in real life then some himesh fan will break your face by punching you in the face himesh is the greatest singer and music director ever born and I want to say this to the guy who called him a blot on the face of indian music:go to hell because you have no passion and soul which is required to understand the greatness of a man and his voice. this article is the most truthful article i have ever read,you dont need quotations for this article because it is the truth and truth needs no quotations and fuck you himesh haters and stop typing your abuses on internet and abuse in real life and some himesh fan will crack your skull.

A website to promote Himesh the pre-ABA composer
There is a website called www.himeshreshammiya-reviews.com which is no less than an encyclopedia for HR fans.

It has:

1. Complete and organized catalogue of HR's albums (filmography) with each and every song's title. 2. ALL pre-ABA songs since his debut till Aashiq Banaya Aapne can be viewed and heard in youtube embedded links. 3. New promos of his upcoming movies can be watched. 4. All his music arrangement, orchestration, beat effects, singing styles etc are described that display a maximum knowledge and understanding of his music.

Everyone knows HR after Aashiq Banaya Aapne, but how many existing fans have heard each n every pre-ABA song? And what about the new fans HR acquires by the day?

The purpose of this site is to promote HR the pre-ABA composer and to update all HR fans who haven't yet heard each n every HR song till date! It would save a lot of time, effort & frustration and allow fans to hear those songs that they never even knew about.

So why can't a site that would ensure that no HR fan would ever miss any HR song get a small mention over here? Please study the contents of this site more carefully for its intended purpose which includes promoting lesser heard & known pre-ABA albums like Amar Prem Title Track, Nigehbaan - The 3rd Eye (2005), Aabra Ka Daabra (2004), Tum (2004), Shukriya (2004), Foothpath (2003), Iqbal (2005) & Anjaane - The Unknown (2005) just to mention a few. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.215.116.214 (talk • contribs) 10:16, 5 August 2010

Tone
To the editor using the 117.204.... IP range: Statements such as are not written in the encyclopedic, formal tone that is expected in Wikipedia articles, see WP:TONE. Please do not remove the corresponding tag without addressing these concerns, as you did numerous times already (example).
 * "he truly became the Rage of the nation" or
 * "his songs like 'Tera Suroor','Zara Jhoom Jhoom' and 'Tanhaiyan' became rage songs and created history as the people just could not stop listening to these songs"

Regards, HaeB (talk) 18:13, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

Citing sources
Per WP:BLP and WP:BURDEN, statements such as personal details about his life (especially negative claims such as the one reinserted here by the editor using the 117.204.... IP range) or superlative claims such as should be provided with a citation. Do not remove corresponding tags without addressing these concerns.
 * "He is regarded as the most famous singer in India with a mass following of more than a billion people and his albums and music cds are the highest selling music cds in India."

Apology to Boney Kapoor
The fact that Reshammiya apologized to Kapoor before their 2007 reconciliation is relevant, and noted in the cited source. Please stop deleting it without explanation. Regards, HaeB (talk) 18:13, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

hey HaeB,the word reconciled in a way means that the two worked out thier differences,so that word is almost the same as apologising or becoming friends after an argument,and its also no longer relevant as it is all old news and people are more interested in the Asha Bhosle and Himesh argument then this. now regarding citations,let me say this,no article on wiki,except the protected articles are fully cited,if we put citation where you have marked citation needed then confusion will be the result because citation number will be 10 for about himesh section and the about himesh section is first part of article and it will get citation number 10,so if we want to make this an article that is cited correctly then we will have to remove all citations and then put them back together so the order is maintained and about himesh section gets citation number 1 and so on.I promise you I will look into the matter and within next fifteen days this article will become a perfect fully cited and protected article,the way its meant to be and also would like to say that I can provide citations for all the statements made in this article,this article is based on truth and truth is truth,whether people like the truth or not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.204.141.135 (talk) 12:48, 27 August 2010 (UTC)


 * No, the apology is important because it is a statement about the actions which had caused the controversy. "Reconciling" doesn't contain the same information.
 * You don't need to worry about the numbering of citations, it is adjusted automatically when one inserts new ones. (See also Citing sources)
 * Thanks for agreeing to provide the missing citations. Until then, we'll leave the warnings about missing references in place.
 * Please don't remove the "tone" tag without addressing the concerns, and don't reinsert the copyright violation (see above).
 * Regards, HaeB (talk) 19:53, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

Dear HaeB,I think you are just a Himesh hater who is trying to make Himesh look like an apologising coward who does not even have a voice,well his voice is unique and his albums and cds are the highest selling in Indian music history,if you really want to make a big issue about the citations and tone of this article then protect it if you can otherwise,let it remain the way it is,because if you dont have the authority to protect it then why should anyone reply to ur concerns. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.204.128.173 (talk) 20:18, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
