Mali edit

Hi, good work on T. R. Mahalingam (flautist); thank you for expanding the article! I had done the best with the few sources I could find, but more sources is always good. If you had any trouble editing the article, or found something confusing, or if there's any way I can help, please let me know. Regards, Shreevatsa (talk) 14:06, 17 March 2010 (UTC)Reply


Thanks for your appreciation with the revision to tr mahalingam i did. One thing to do that would be great is to upload a picture of Mali to the page that is public domain, so it won't be taken down. Can you do that? Also, can you review my new article on this veena vidwan: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rugmini_gopalakrishnan and remove the "unreviewed article" tag on it? Thanks.

Hi, I've "reviewed" the article; good work. (It would be good to find a few sources for the awards etc.) Did you take the photograph yourself, BTW? For Mahalingam, it would be hard to find a public-domain image... since the copyright term in India is 60 years, any photo whose copyright has expired would have to be published in 1949 or earlier, when he was less than 23 years old. The other possibility is to contact someone who owns a photograph (e.g. took it himself) and request them to release it. Shreevatsa (talk) 13:51, 18 March 2010 (UTC)Reply


Yes, I took that photo myself. As far as the references of the awards for the veena player, there is nothing published, it merely exists in the archives of the universities and institutions as a historical fact- ex: Award given to so-and-so on such-and-such a date. Would a reference be to get a name and address of a principal of the school. Media doesn't always cover these things. As far as the major awards, there are photogrpahs taken on the occasion, but I can't use those without copyright permission. What should I do, I am pretty unclear on it.

Yeah, you're right; the media doesn't always cover them. I think it's ok, we can just leave it as it is; but if someone tries to challenge it and remove it (which is unlikely), it may have to go. Regards, Shreevatsa (talk) 11:53, 20 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
