Dinesh's a pseudo-historian

Here are some quotes from Dinesh's talk page.Note that I have not wrote any of them and they were long before I stepped in wikipedia.The first two points are worth considering when Dinesh sings about Kamath every now and then.

(Dont make rediculous statements about his mother tongue being Telugu. I know you have been reading some stupid website called "Tamil Nation" where you got this piece of rubbish from. User: Dinesh Kannambadi)

Note that Mr Dinesh is enraged and calls a website tamilnation.com as stupid and rubbish.

  • Here's Dinesh comments to a user Venu- 'dont try to just glorify Cholas by refering to history written by just one historian (Nilakhanta Sastry). There are many more historians who have written about these conflicts and i suggest you do more reading on this matter. Some historians especially of Tamil origin tend to be very Tamil centric and try to glorify every achievement of Tamils in history and downplay those by others. These edits will go on untill we find a balance somewhere. I also intend to start editing Chola pages to reflect correct history, not the one presented by Tamil Historians.'

Note that the same Dinesh who sings praises of Mr Kamath and calls me illiterate and uneducated for its criticism, calls tamilnation.com as stupid.While Dinesh uses Kamath's book as reference widely he objects Nilakanatha Shastri only being used.He calls him tamil centric and tamil glorifiing.Now see who's talking!

  • You said that Mr. Kamat is a pabma vibhushan awardee but I dont find his name Category:Padma Vibhushan awardees?
  • here are many historians other than Jotsna Kamat, Krishna Kamat and Mr. ArthikajePlease have mercy on them and Jotsna Kamat, Krishna Kamat and Mr. Arthikaje will not feel bad or go on a hunger strike if you stop quoting them and quote some one else for a change.

by user Indiancow

  • Dinesh If you go on vandalising the pages to include your POV with no (authentic) references except for the ourkarnataka website
  • One more point: I'm not in WP to glorify anyone in particuar. My attempts are purely write articles on history sources from academic materials. The Internet is full of pages which have an one-eyed nationalistic view on these matters and that is why I never depend on them. I don't have an agenda to push, but I will counter your agenda.

You have made useful contributions, but don't waste your energy in trying to see bias where non exists. (user Parthi)

  • Precisely, you were trying to trumpet Kannada achievements at the cost of that article which had a totally different angle. Your modifications made the article completely absurd. Your narrow minded hatred against Tamils has only succeeded in vandalizing the article..

(user Manjunath)

Few comments from rashtrakuta talk page

  • He (dinesh) tries to paint all South Indian dynasties as essentially of Kannada origin.
  • I completely disagree with whosoever claims that 'the Rashtrakutas were a kannada empire'. There is no proven record that corroborates the above assertion. I am an avid reader of history and i have not come across a single document that proves with certainty that the rashtrakutas were of kannada origin.

This comments are probably from user Kasar.

Dinesh says . He has discarded months worth of studies by me from various sources including Dr. S.U. Kamat (Consice history of Karnataka, 2001), Dr. Nilakhanta Shastry (History of South India, 1955) just to name a few (whose books I have with me). Firstly he discarded Nilakanta sastry as being Tamil centric but as soon as he found he's written something favorable for Kannada he forgived him!

few comments from Vijayanagara_empire talk

  • He has been selectively inserting material to show that Vijayanagar empire solely becomes the heritage of Kannadigas. One glaring example is the omission of Telugu literature
  • u behave like a half baked historian, u want to prove telugu's r inferior to kannadigas by putting forward all the non sense stuff
  • dont take that if a person is from a part of state which is now in karnatake as kannadiga
  • I only question your enthusiasm to brand Vijayanagar empire as Karnataka/Kannada empire.
  • Whether anonymous or otherwise, what matters is open-minded, non-parochial and logical approach, which Mr Kannambadi is totally devoid of. That makes one suspect him even if he says something correct.

(anonymous)

The above summary shows Mr Dinesh rubbishes the books/writers/ websites which go against his propaganda.He doesnt make bones to include ONLY those odd historians who are biased and write what he likes to read.He is busy telling everybody Marathi/Telugu words evolved from Kannada,all South/SouthWest dynasties/kingdoms were essentially of Kannada origin.Such things are even bad than vandalism.His talks and articles will immideately make u know he is here just to push his Kannada POV.I request rectification of articles.

Yadava dynasty

Yes I have stopped editing it long before.I request u to keep the article name as yadavas,Seuna can be redirected to that page and even mentioned.Plz go thru above links which I provided abouve Dinesh if u find time.Thanks. Mahawiki 10:52, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Belgaum

Clear conflict in the Belgaum article - the article is being used for political propaganda. Any attempt to de-politicise the article will result in edit wars.

Achitnis 11:17, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

achitnis,I wonder how did u land here!Anyways I have left a message there.I am just requesting to includie all all the points and dont push any state's POV there. Mahawiki 12:55, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

In defence of Dinesh

This message is not meant for me, User:Utcursch; probably most definitely for User:Achitnis or User:Mahawiki

  1. When somebody has as many edits as Dinesh(3000-4000 odd when I last checked) and when somebody has edited/created as many articles as he has, it is entirely natural that he has had disagreements with other editors and vice versa.
  • It is quite amazing to know that all his edits he uses a certain writers to develop and many find it wrong and feel it a Kannada POV,whether they are Marathi or Telgu?The point is many users are having exactly same problem with him as we are having.
  1. And, invariably, whenever Dinesh has contested something on an article, he has had his own citations to back up his claim. Unlike you, who can only make a claim, but havent yet produced a single citation of your own except some private blogs and private websites of 'non-notable' people. Just show me even a single instance where Mr.Dinesh has made major changes to the article without citations and people have not questioned it.
  • Oh yeah?Did you forget Belgaon talks? My problems with Dinesh is that his citations are rediculuous and biased
  1. That Mr. Kamath's credentials are impeccable is unquestionable - whether you like it or not. You can check on the worldcat.org site if you want, you will find that Mr. Kamath's books are available in hundreds of university libraries and research centers all over the world including such places as the United States government Library of Congress.
  • This is ur POVworldcat site is not a proof of being Kamath a responsible writer.I hope u have had a look at Google search of Mr.Kamath!Dinesh has made him quite popular.My library also has many extrimist Hindu books so does those books are good just because they feauture in that library?NYPL has books written against US stance of 9/11 so they dont really make them authentic or crap.
  1. He is a member and in many cases President, Secretary etc., of many esteemed bodies like Itihasa Academy, Govt of Ktaka, Mythic Society etc.,.
  • Mr.Zakir Naik is also member,founder,sectretery of MANY organisations! But still it isnt necessary that the man is void of any prejudices.I want to tell u and ur friend that history cannot be written by opinions of certain writers.Writers are human beings and subject to prejudices.Just like ur friend pointed out that sastry is a pro-Tamil writer,whats so bad if i say Kamath is a pro-kannada writer?
  1. By quoting selectively from some issue that Dinesh had with some other user in the past, without even knowing the background of the dispute, you are indulging in highly unprofessional behaviour.
  • Spamming lies to all admins is also a highly unprofessional behaviour.
  1. And one more thing, stop even talking about articles like Rajkumar, Vijaynagar, Chalukya, Kannada, Karnataka, Kaveri, Kaveri dispute, Rashtrakuta etc.,. Evidently you know nothing about any of those subjects. I have said this many times before, I will say it again, "If you have ANY problems with the contents of an article and if you have a citation of your own to back up your claim, please take it up on the talk page of the article in question. That is what talk pages of articles are for. Stop talking about it on every user talk page that you visit(like Blnguyen's, Utcursch's, Sundars's, Arya's etc.,.). If you have a problem with Vijayanagar article, talking about it on Utcursch's page is USELESS. Nobody is going to even see it. Sarvagnya 11:27, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Have u seen the tamilnation citation of rajkumar's mothertongue being Telugu on Blnguyen's page.U spade off as soon as I pointed it out.And thanks for ur advice.Keep it to urself.
  1. As for why the citations you gave for Shivaji the great was not acceptable, please see WP:CITE and WP:RS in particular. Thanks.

Sarvagnya 11:27, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Have u seen them? Kamath's citations are not acceptable either,please see WP:CITE.Wikipedia cannot be built on the opinions of a writer who's not even well-known and forget about being neutral and credible.

Mahawiki 12:54, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

LOL, this is getting hilarious! Personalities, talking through the side of the mouth, mud-slinging. Really, people need to get a life. More to the point - who is Dinesh, and what interaction have I had with him? :) Achitnis 12:16, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
Then, may be it's for User:Mahawiki. Not sure... utcursch | talk 12:34, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Mahawiki's investigation on me

Mahawiki has been writing a lot of stuff about my past, which in a way shows me in good light. I shall enumerate and explain.

1. He quotes my arguements with one user Mr Venu (Parthi) regarding Chalukya page. What Mahawiki does not realise is the me and Mr. Venu, having watched each other have also learn to respect each other. If you read the talk pages on Chalukya carefully in the last 4-5 months, you will see us in full cooperation for a long time. In fact, the Chalukya page has major contributions from both of us. This shows I am a learning and mature WIKI user, unlike Mahawiki who brawls with every one. Every one goes thru a learning curve and I did so too.

2.Rajkumar's mother tongue. If you notice apart from a few edits I did early this year, I have not been involved because it was a no issue for me. I dont need to justify any more. To Kannadigas, Raj Kumar is held in high esteeem, but developing his page has not been my priority.

3. Prof. Sastri: yes at one point I felt Prof Sastri was anti Chalukya. Then I purchased the book and found that 90% of the matter matches with Dr. S.U. Kamath. I also learnt to respect Prof. Sastri when I read other books from him about Early India and such. Again , this clearly show I am a growing and reasonable wiki user willing to accept the views of a historian from Tamil Nadu.

4. I have read the book by Dr. Thapar in its entireity (500--600) pages and use it as a reference too if you notice.

5. Vijayanagar empire page: any sane person who looks at this page will see the amount of work and research that has gone into it. Look at all the , main articles, references, subheadings, pictures, citations etc. yes, I have had arguements on this page too for some time and repeated vandalism. The person with whom I had arguements refused to "even log in" even after repeated requests. How can anyone hold the arguements of an unsigned user as even worth considering. Even that has stopped in the last couple of weeks after he saw that the content was balanced and to his liking.

6. In addition, I use to copyrighted web pages, one by award winning historian Dr. Jyotsna Kamat (not related to Dr. S.U. Kamath) and another by Arthikage to cross compare for issues, mistakes in dates and points etc. I cant do more than this. It takes a lot of time to do the amount of reading I do. I find it painful that people like Mahawiki (I guess he is educated since he knows how to use a computer) go around bad mouthing me and ridiculing my sources when he has nothing to show.

Sir, I am a married man, with two kids (one is almost a teenager). I have a busy day-to-day family schedule apart from work schedule. Yet I take the time to read, and learn and make a resonable contribution. I am deeply interested in history. These two guys Mahawiki and Arya (his name suggests his racial leanings and has been adviced to change it in the past) are nothing but brawlers and brow beaters who have no knowledge, no interest in History and really dont intend to read and learn. The very fact he keeps calling others in to look into so-and-so page shows his lack of knowledge. He just wants to throw tags and rubbish the work done by others over months. I also travel to these places to take photographs etc. Majority of the photos you will find are my own. I have placed an order for 10 more books covering most of the topics Mahawiki is complaining about, so as not to limit myself to the 4-5 sources I have been refereing to. It takes 4 weeks for these books to arrive and another year for me to digest and continuously input information. I am a serious user of wiki willing to invest large amounts of money, time and effort given my schedule.

I hope you can respect this and allow for flow of information into the Seuna/Yadava page over the coming days and weeks.

Reply From Arya

Personal Attack

First of all, Dinesh Kannambadi is resorting to personal attacks by calling me "racist" just because of my name. Perhaps he doesn't know that my real name is Arya, yeah A R Y A. Just because my name is Arya doesn't mean I am a racist. Please tell Mr. Kannambadi to refrain from passing such racist comments.

And he should do well to refrain from providing the half-truth (just like he does in his innumerable edits a.k.a. Kannadization of articles). An admin User:Bhadani did advise me to change my username but it was just because another user had been wrongly blocked because his name was "Aryan". Notice my name is Arya not Aryan. This I explained to Bhadani and he was cool with it. I don't know why Kannambadi shouts through the rooftop about non-issues. If "Arya" was a racist term, then why do Hindus use it to refer to their religion or Gods (Arya-devata/Arya Vaidik Dharma/Arya Vartanuk are commonly used in Hindu religion.) Mr.Kannambadi just wants to make an issue out of non-issue and also malign me.

What Does "Being Married" Imply

What does "Being Married" imply ? Does it imply one is great ? Or does it imply one is wise ? Or does it imply one is scholarly ? Does it mean unmarried people are not responsible ? Does it mean they are free ? Does it mean they have no work ? Just by uttering this trash, Kannambadi has again proved, how he looks down upon other editors. He feels he knows everything and others (esp. those opposing his POV) are ignorant illiterates !

Brawler ? Brow Beater ? No Knowledge ?

What do you mean Kannambadi ? That only you can read history books ? Stop thinking so high of yourself ! Vanity goes in smoke ! I have read a lot of history books and I read all the point of views, not just Kannada glorification books. So, don't make sweeping statements like this. Especially when you don't have citations ;-))

So, Behave & Stop Kannadization

So, behave my friend and stop pushing POV. And stop hounding Marathi-related articles.

- AryaRajyaमहाराष्ट्र 15:27, 1 October 2006 (UTC)


Afer reading Dinesh's reply i literally surprised.Dinesh do u have some problem?Who asked u if ur married or single?How is that relavant here?Take my advice try to read history which is void of any POV.Stop reading fiction!

U have cleverly avoided to comment on how do I become illiterate and 'what all personal attacks u had on me' when I criticise Mr.kamath?Havent u expressed ur opinion about sastry being pro-Tamil and tamilnation being stupid rather flamboyantly? Stop acting like a snob.Doncha have decency to respect others POV and history?Why Kannadise everything here?U have everything in u to be named as a fanatic.Stop ur misbehavior.U very well know Mr.Suryakanth Kamath is an irresponsible and writer which has no credibility.His writings are biased and one-sided.His writings are mischivious and just Kannada advertisements which we dont care.And for god's sake dont sing his praises here.

Greetings - Pleased to meet you

Hi, I've been very pleased with some of your contributions on wikipedia well-done. I am also a fellow software engineer--Indian50 16:28, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

New name of Yadava dynasty

I am not accusing or anything but u were very particular about taking decisions after broad consensus with all users.U waited for Dinesh,but u didnt take note of my request of keeping the article as Yadava_dynasty.Whats this Seuna Yadava dynasty of Devagiri?

Anyways that was a minor problem but u have supposed to passed the controversial book of Mr.Kamath?I mean u were very assertive and cock sure that my citations about Shivaji Maharaj are 'biased' but u seem to gave green signal to that author's book which Mr.Dinesh swears to.I am sure u have not read other other articles which i requested u to do to understand if there's any pushing of POV nor u have read the summary of Dinesh's double standards at ur page.

I leave it all to ur discretion. Mahawiki 12:12, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

P.S.I have done few minor edits in that article.If u feel rthey are wrong,do revert it.

Seuna

Sir, The info on Kannada coins from the Seuna rule is missing. Kindly put it back in.

Dineshkannambadi

Again comes this(dinesh) Kannada POV pusher.

Admin,Well u provided few links and his controversial background,how could u say that he is notable historian and academician?My comments about he being fictious writer were exaggration but how can u still approve his citation?Just because he's famour?Mr.Amar Singh and Mr.Laloo Yadav are also famous and they do blabber everything and anything they want.Mr.Zakir Naik known for his Islamic fanaticm is also a notable personality(and a writer also).But using their works ONLY will surely make articles biased.Atleast, Kamaths works should not be used as a 'exclusive' source.

It also surprises me that u still disapprove my citations?I think Shivaji sawant is respectable and great writer by all means.He just cant be compared with those like Kamath.I strongly recommend 1)Acceptance of my citations. 2)Mr.kamath's citations should be used with utmost care,because he is a cintroversial writer,if not a fiction writer.

Mahawiki 13:04, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

The future on Seuna_Yadva page

Sir, I have made minor edits to add one piece of info that was missing (coins). I have changed a minor subheading too which I think makes sense. Now for the future of this page. Knowing the history of these two users Mahawiki and Arya, I feel that this issue is not over, though you as a ADMIN have taken the time to edit the page at length. How do we stop this page from slow degradation at the hands of these two users. I know that Mahawiki's main goal is to eliminate all references to Kannada language, inscriptions, literature and in general Kannada people. He has been constantly writing about other pages where I am involved in deeply, with the intent to spread negative publicity (what in India we call "street fight").

Mahawiki fought with me on the RASHTRAKUTA page for days and another ADMIN (Blnguyen | BLabberiNg) was involved in this and suggested some changes, which I made. Mahawiki ofcourse wanted entire sections on Kannada literature/inscriptions eliminated even though attested to my multiple authors and scholars. Clearly I see a trend of prejudice. He has continued to complain about this page and is slowly trying to spread to other pages too (though they are well sourced, referenced and noted).

I thought History was a subject to be enjoyed. But unfortunately has turned out to be a stressful war of egos with the real intent lost in a pile of acrimonious discussions.

Thanks for your effort. Dineshkannambadi

answer

Dear Dinesh, First of all let me make it clear,it is not ego-fights.I have wholeheartedly agreed that I knew less about rashtrakutas.I read about it in Encyclopedia and agreed that Kannada language/literature need to be mentioned on Rashtrakutas.I had only objected to the whole lot of adjectives and Rashtrakutas being names as Kannada origin.It is u who is making fuss. I have also agreed to admin about Shivaji Maharaj issue for the simple reason that he has not made any changed in bad faith.He did not mean any disrespect to Maharaj unlike ur friend Sarvagnya. Dinesh,plz know that there is world above ur Karnatak,Kannada blah blah.Unfortunately for u,world has many colors and not just yellow and red!So no kannadisation please? Mahawiki 10:55, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Dinesh's "Good Boy" Show

I can't believe this. This Dinesh is showing himself to be a good boy, a good user when all he does is spread extreme Kannadi-POV everywhere. And he accuses me of "slowly degrading pages". This is ANOTHER PERSONAL ATTACK. I want admin to deplore it in the hardest possible way. See my history. I have constructively contributed to Marathi people. Where have I degraded any page. I only want articles to be neutral. But Kannambadi hides half-truth. His history, if authentic is "selective history" ! Where he selects pro-Kannada speculations, turns them into facts, leaves out the facts which goes against his POV and shouts from the rooftop. As someone said, "If a lie is shouted from the rooftop, it becomes the truth". And that's the modus operandi of Kannanbadi. As for war of egos, please see his comment here - Talk:Belgaum/Archive_0#Belgaum_-_Karnataka_or_Maharashtra_Dineshkannambadi_20:04.2C_3_August_2006_.28UTC.29, where he has ranted against Maharashtrians.

Actually Kannambadi, you said you're married, but by your actions it doesn't seem so !!! As it is said, if someone hides the truth, his actions give 'em away !

- AryaRajyaमहाराष्ट्र 14:27, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Mr.Dinesh,it is an advice to u.Arya might not had many edits but just see the history of Marathi_people article.Admin(blnguyen) when adviced to remove the POV he did it promptly without any hassles.He is not bent on marketing Maharashtra and Marathi here.Stop manipulating history.If u think India's history is all Kannada YOU ARE WRONG,if you think all great rulers are kannada, YOU ARE WRONG.For god's sake stop ur Karnataka marketing.The sooner u understand that is better. Mahawiki 11:01, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Why Seuna or Yadavas Went Kannadi

At last, I've found a piece of evidence for the ways of "pseudo-historian"(as mahawiki righty calls him) Dinesh Kannambadi !!!!! Admin and others, I urge you to read this immediately. This is extremely important showcase of Kannambadi's changing stands and Kannadization. I will just give a short synopsis and then you'll know. So here goes the History Of Kannambadi's Kannadization -

When the Belgaon war was heating up between pro-Marathi editors and pro-Kannada editors, Dinesh Kannambadi came in and posted a very provocative comment, the one which link I've given above.

Here is the link, if you want - Talk:Belgaum/Archive_0#Belgaum_-_Karnataka_or_Maharashtra_Dineshkannambadi_20:04.2C_3_August_2006_.28UTC.29

Lest you forget, his comments are pointed against Marathi people, esp. Marathi civilisation.

He writes there -

  • "Lets not forget that through out history, when other empires fell, it was the Kannada empires that stood the test of time to protect Indian Nationalism."
  • "The Hoysalas were the last to fall (1343 CE.)to the Khilji invasion"

And here comes the piece of the CAKE -

  • "while the Yadavas of Devagiri who actually had many cowardly agreements with the invaders were the first to fall (1315 CE.)"

He calls the Yadavas of Devagiri "cowardly" and being the "first to fall". Which shows, he knew that Yadavas were Marathi and he has acknowledged it here but afterwards he Kannadized the articles and suddenly we find the Yadavas are Kannadi.

Now tell me, how can a person who calls Yadavas "cowardly" and is totally against them, constructively add to the article. He is poised to degrade it further with his pro-Kannad fantasy POVs. I hope now you understand Kannambadi the pseudo historian much better.

- AryaRajyaमहाराष्ट्र 14:40, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks a lot Arya for pointing this out.I cant hold myself now,Mr Dinesh, stop ur shameless acts RIGHT NOW.Who are u to call Yadavas coward?get a life,dude,u call them cowards and still u want to show they were Kannadas?U know what,u r suffering from acute inferiority complex and hence u like to associate kannada and karnataka with all great things, to satisfy ur fragile kannada ego.By ur notorious acts ur urself embarassing and defaming ur Kannada.
I request ur comments Mr.Admin.Once again let me urge u please TRASH Dinesh idiotic sources.Please...

Mahawiki 11:09, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Unfortunate article

Please let us stop throwing stuff in some else's talk page and move on. The article you have shown was written 2 months back for which I have already expressed deepest regret. It was written because you guys refused to call us Kannadigas and kept calling us Kannadi's even after repeated request. Its time to move on. We all make mistakes. I am no exception. Lets not make this admin's page a place for our arguements.

Dineshkannambadi

First of all, I didn't call you Kannadi at that time. At that time I wasn't even logged into Wikipedia. Secondly, the point is not what you said against marathi civilization but what you said about YADAVAS ! You spilled your anger against Yadavas by calling them cowardly. Inadvertedly, you admitted they were Marathis. And then you started Kannadizing the Yadava article. And that is THE point. - AryaRajyaमहाराष्ट्र 17:20, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
Stop justifying these shameful acts Mr.Kannambadi.And please if u have some decency and conscience answer the questions me and Arya are asking.Dont act smart,give the explaination-
  1. You have defames yadavas in ur rantings against Maharashtrians.In other words u have agreed that yadavas are Marathis.Now ur kannadising their article.It proves ur a liar and a kannada fanatic who wants Kannada and K'taka being associated with each and every great thing!
  2. U call tamilnation website as 'stupid' and name sastry as pro-Tamil writer.How dare u ask ur to accept the stupid writings of pro-kannada writer????

I am waiting for the the answers... Mahawiki 11:16, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Dear admin

I saw ur msg.Your edits on Yadava page looks fine.I dont think we should go for arbitration on Shivaji Maharaj;s issue. BTW in case u misunderstood, Again comes this Kannada POV pusher.. this sentenence in ur page was for Mr.Dinesh.Kindly note that.I am thankful for ur help. Mahawiki 10:50, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Dr. Kamath related

Sir, I read that you were planning to read all articles where Dr. S.U. Kamath has been quoted. This is perfectly fine with me. But please note that I have also referenced extensively from Prof. Sastri, Dr. Thapar, Dr. Jyotsna Kamat, A guide from Department of Tourism, Govt. of India and Arthikage (a State govt. undertaking with copyrights). Please be aware that a lot of work has gone into the format of the paragraphs, sections, subsections, main articles attached etc. Also, I use a different way of showing references and notes. Please maintain the sme format. So before making any changes to any page, please make sure you are in full sync with me. Thanks for you effrots Dineshkannambadi

Suryanath Kamat citations should be trashed

Dear admin,

Please note the sudden awakening of Dinesh in his edits.He has been kind enough to post about Telugu/Sanskrit stuff in his articles!I request u to see this behaviour of Dinesh as a evidence of his POV pushing.Plus Dinesh has been avoiding to comment on questions raised by me and Arya about his rubbishing Tamil authors/sources and writing insulting stuff about Yadavas.I think its high time for u to consider these points and act accordingly.

I think suryakanth kamath is unrelaible and fanatic writer.U urself had ponited out his controversial POV pushing.In ur opinion,he's a respectable source.I request u to to advice me about taking this issue to higher authorities.Plz note that I respect ur decisions about Shivaji Maharaj issue,yadavas but I really think this particular writer should be trashed.Morever Dinesh is no historian but a Kannada fanatic who has no respect for other languages and POV.His insukts against Yadavas signifies he's not intrested in providing real history but associate everything with Kannada.

Since everyone's talk pages is littered with this MArathi-Kannada garbage, do you want to start an RFC? Its really getting out of hand. Bakaman Bakatalk 23:41, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
