Notability

[edit]

I removed the notability template because (a) he has an entry in the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica, over half a column long, (b) Mumbai's oldest museum is named after him. David Brooks (talk) 18:52, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merging and other issues

[edit]

I believe this page should be merged with another page written on the same topic: Bhau Daji Lad.

I have a bit of a concern over the spelling of the last name. In this article it is spelt 'Laud'. At the museum named after him, it is 'Lad'. Can we add the name in Devnagri script as well to clear any confusion?

Also, the meaning of this sentence in the "Medical career" section is a unclear: "He also tested the value of drugs to which the ancient Hindus had ascribed marvellous powers, among other pathological subjects of historical interest investigating that of leprosy." Can someone rephrase it? Rohini (talk) 21:04, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Can you explain this change?

[edit]

@Gazal World: can you explain this change you did on the page? Link was going to the page of republic of India, that is, India and I wanted to fix it in Indian which is for the people who have Indian ethnicity. Can I make these changes here? -- Harshil want to talk? 05:57, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Indian will bring you on a disambiguation page. The correct link is Indian people. But generally we put [[India]]n. Indian people is also OK. --Gazal world (talk) 06:20, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
