Talk:Jay Bahadur

Hindi name
How is it appropriate to add (Hindi: जय बहादुर) beside his name when he might be an Eskimo and Bahadur a common Eskimo name? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 16:05, 18 August 2011 (UTC)


 * Please see: here


 * My point is that if we added "Jay Bahadur is of Indian heritage.", that would need a source. The translation of his name makes that claim. I don't agree with the inclusion of that. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 16:34, 18 August 2011 (UTC)


 * In fact, this is a BLP issue. I will remove it until you can show why it should remain. Of course, respectfully, you may be right here. I am just erring on the side of caution. Best, Anna Frodesiak (talk) 16:35, 18 August 2011 (UTC)


 * Since I gave my opinion in #wikipedia-en-help, I think I'll give it here as well: Basically, Bahadur may well be of Indian heritage, but as he was born in Toronto, so he's at most a child to immigrant parents (or maybe a few generations down). From the few things I have checked, neither he himself nor other sources have used his name in Hindi. Even if there is a direct correspondence between his surname and a Hindi surname, I don't think it's Wikipedia's place to make the connection. wctaiwan (talk) 16:44, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
