Hi Donner60. That makes a lot of sense. I was thinking why I was unable to see the photo. I, initially wanted to change her name on the article but found no way to do this. As I said I'm new so don't know exactly what I'm doing. I'll correct the error I made but sadly would prefer her name be spelt correctly. However saying that though, sources and media do Infact use both versions of her name as you have also mentioned. Thanks!

If you want more practice editing, the sandbox is the best place to do so. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Hi Donner60. Yes that's right I'm very new to this. Contributions from other users should be accepted. I, Infact wanted to correct her name. The actress herself had spelled her name with a "h" in it, as in NAYANTHARA as opposed to NAYANTARA. Also wanted to include her mother tongue which is Malayalam. That is all. Thanks!


 * There is a problem with this because sources do not all spell the name the same way. Some are as you put it but others are as the title of the article. The Internet Movie Data base uses both! Wikipedia's guidelines are that the spelling in the article must conform to the title of the article. There are three ways to handle this. Change the title of the article and put up a redirect page to the new title from the old title. Or put up a redirect page for the new spelling and mention in the article (leaving the title as it is) that the new spelling is actually the preferred spelling. Or simply mention once in the text of the article that the other spelling is the one the actress prefers even though some sources use the spelling in the title of the article.


 * You cannot change the title of pictures because it will simply show a red link and not the picture. The picture is linked only to the exact spelling in the title. This does not show anyway so there is no need to change it. Changing the title of a picture (that is, the file which adds the picture itself, not necessarily the caption which is stated in a separate entry) is a sure way to get your entire edit reverted.


 * Mentioning the actress's mother tongue is no problem. An edit will be reverted on an all or nothing basis almost every time because the editor who reverts the edit will probably not know whether any part of it is valid when that editor sees a problem with part of it.
