Bhagawan or Bhagwan?[edit]

Hi Kannada123, I understand your concern to retain the Kannada pronunciation in the English spelling but please see WP:TITLE, the title of BLP article is decided based on naming conventions in the English language, and in Bhagawan's case the spelling used in almost every reliable English source is Bhagwan. So, I think, following wiki conventions and policies, the article should be moved to K. S. Bhagwan. -Mohanbhan (talk) 13:54, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Mohanbhan, like you said, "K.C. Dutt's entry in Who's Who of Indian Literature" uses "Bhagawan". That now, is a legitimate source, that additionally and the only source, gives the date of birth of the subject. The other sources cited in the article and found on the Internet are newspaper articles, which involves reporting purely, and unlike the cited book.

OK. Yes, S.A. entry is indeed considered a legitimate source. -Mohanbhan (talk) 14:09, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
