Review section[edit]

I am nominating this featured article for review because it is tagged for notability issues, verifiability and unsourced sections. There are style problems, an inadequate lead, and a laundry list of 'notable people', only one of whom I recognize. DrKay (talk) 10:03, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The list of people has now been removed to List of people from Mysore. b uidhe 17:51, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The name is strange. It seems like the page should be called Mysuru, as it's the official name, the one used on google maps, etc. Is Mysore now out of date, like Bombay? Also the text uses both Mysuru and Mysore randomly. At least there should be consistency. I suggest we use official name as title and throughout the article so as to match all other large Indian cities wikipedia articles. Or course there should be mention of Mysore as the colonial name.

It seems that Mysore is still overwhelmingly the common name, at least a decade ago per NGRAMS [2] If you think Mysuru is now the common name, WP:RM is the correct venue. I agree that we should be consistent in using the common name / article title throughout. b uidhe 10:19, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
