'natural born Indian' reference
There is no such categorization in Indian citizenship. This reference should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 42.111.0.181 (talk) 06:02, 14 April 2019 (UTC)

Nationality of Mother Theresa
"only the second Indian winner of the Nobel Peace Prize after Mother Teresa in 1979" Wasn't she Albanian? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.50.104.124 (talk) 15:13, 10 October 2014 (UTC)


 * According to Mother Theresa, she was Albanian, but was an Indian citizen from 1948. Davemck (talk) 17:32, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

Can this be added to the Work section please?
Hi there

We're trying to help fill out Kailash's profile so there is more information on his work on public sources due to the light thrown on him today because of the Nobel prize. I'd like to add this post but not sure if I'd be allowed to?

During his time as GCE President millions of public engaged in global campaigns for youth and adult literacy, girls’ education, access to quality education and the increase of trained teachers among others during its Global Action Week. In 2010, Kailash led GCE during its successful 1GOAL Education For All campaign, which saw 19 million people worldwide lobby for increased financing and access to quality education, culminating in the announcement of AUS$ 5 billion by the Australian Government at the 1GOAL closing event during the 2010 UN General Assembly, hosted by Kailash on behalf of GCE.

Is this okay? Thanks for your help! (I have also uploaded an image for use on this page.)

"Child right" activist?
The text currently refers to Satyarthi as "an Indian child right activist". To me, "child right" sounds awkward. It seems to me the phrase could have been "an Indian children's rights activist". Additionally, the link leads to the Wikipedia article entitled "Children's Rights". I know we're supposed to "be bold" and edit as we feel is appropriate, but I don't want to be bold if I'm just plain wrong. 76.173.169.1 (talk) 00:20, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
 * ✅ When you are right you are right. Why don't you get a wikipedia account and help us improve this and other articles ? (in general you don't even need an account, but unfortunately editing by non-account holders is restricted at this page due to some abuse). Abecedare (talk) 00:32, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

Children's rights and education
Every person on earth who cam afford to should stick up for children's rights for children need education and have to have high point of knowledge. Shreya102030 (talk) 19:15, 19 November 2014 (UTC)

He is one of the crooks who are feeding helpless children in India for the livlihood of the toiletcleaner class teacher folks in Indian government schools. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.204.93.33 (talk) 06:21, 24 October 2015 (UTC)

I just cant believe that this article is so small still!
As an Indian, I feel shameful to see that this article is so small. I am also responsible for it one may say. And that is true. But does that mean that all of us are so busy that we cannot pay attention to a Nobel Laureate from India? Painfully strange! -- Abhijeet Safai (talk) 04:52, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

To use this link of nobel prize website
This seems a very important link. This can be used.

I am copy pasting it below so that the proper references can be used. Two of his colleagues were killed while fighting for this cause! I shall put that reference soon. Thank you. -- Abhijeet Safai (talk) 06:44, 4 November 2016 (UTC)


 * I have redacted the cut-n-past text since that was a copyright violation. The link to the bio is still available and alive, and can indeed be used as a source to add to the wikipedia article. Abecedare (talk) 06:56, 15 March 2019 (UTC)

No Criticism section?
I know we are talking about a live person, but that doesn't mean a criticism section should be willfully omitted! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.151.10.114 (talk) 17:30, 19 December 2017 (UTC)

Addition of Unsourced Information

Unsourced text is against Wikipedia polciy - namely verifiability WP:V, natability WP:N and biographies of living persons WP:BLP. By repeatedly reverting my edits to exclude unsourced material this editor engaged in an edit war WP:EW and failed to follow the process of editing WP:BRD. Looking at the overall edits of this editor they believe they own this article WP:OWN which they do not. I have not been able to get a response from this editor about their edit behaviour but will again post on their talk page. If any other editors wish to comment please do so.
