Vayalar the hindu poet?

edit

If there is a category for "hindu poets", its probably unnecessary. Even if it was necessary to have such a category, Vayalar would be the last person one would think of adding to it. Yeah, he was a poet, he was "born" a hindu, but.. If he must be categorized, he'd fall under "anti-religious poets" more suitably than anywhere else. Why insult his ghost?

ok, if someone must absolutely include him under "hindu poets"; then please do so, i won't remove it once again, i'll just register my protest here.

I completely agree. I raised the point in Category_talk:Hindu_poets, but no one seemed to care. However, a category for poets who have written the mythological/relegious stuff (Valmiki, Tulsidas, Jayadeva etc) seems sensible. As of now, with Vayalar gone, all but two of the people in the category are such people, so I hope that is the intention of people who started it. Tintin 11:03, 29 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

He is a malayalam poet, he does not have any religion Rahul SomanDiscussions - contribs 15:28, 11 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

should there be a quote section?

edit

don't know of what use it could be of:

snehikkayilla njaan novumaathmavine snehicheedathoru thatvashaastratheyum-ma nishada!, mulankaadu

vaalallen samaraayudham, thchanatchanadhhwaanammuzhakkeduvaanaaLallen karavaaLuvittoru manipponveena vaangichu njaan!-sargasangeetham.

Hmmm. IMHO, these are for ml.wikipedia, unless you can do a good translatation. Tintin 11:07, 29 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

snehikkayilla njaan novumaathmavine snehicheedathoru thatvashaastratheyum- is by Changampuzha. In fact the Late Prof. M.Krishnan Nair would class vayalar and several other poets as among those who could not find their own idiom, on account of Changampuzha's influence.Annamma Agnihotri (talk) 21:04, 9 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
