[edit] Soman's reversion

Soman, I do not understand your reversion [1]. Jyoti Basu's full name is in fact Jyotirmoy Basu. The MoS clearly says that his full name should be introduced in the lead section and all subsequent references should be only to the surname. That is what I was trying to follow. — Ravikiran 10:10, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

In that case, it shoyld be mentioned in the lead. However, it should not be used in the rest of the article (as he is more commonly known as just Jyoti Basu). A.K. Gopalan's full name was Ayillyath Kuttiari Gopalan Nambiar, but in article text the short, more commonly used naming is used. --Soman 10:14, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry. My fault. Jyotirmoy Basu was another CPI(M) leader, unrelated to Jyoti. — Ravikiran 10:19, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup

As Ragib, Peripatetic and an anon user have all pointed out in edit summaries, per WP:BLP and WP:OR, this article is in a dreadful state. Unless a ton of fairly NPOV statements are sourced pretty soon, I'll be removing them. Hornplease 23:13, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

I've already removed unreferenced information and personal commentry/libel from the "Background" section, per WP:BLP. --Ragib 23:17, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
