Comments from Talk:Deaths in 2012 regarding death notice

[edit]

It is the wrong person's article which is listed as Ramesh Mehta. There are two of the same name. See http://deshgujarat.com/2012/05/11/synonym-of-gujarati-film-comedy-ramesh-mehta-passes-away/ and http://www.indianetzone.com/40/ramesh_mehta.htm FYI.--62.158.118.109 (talk) 07:02, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What is wrong, the sources listed for his death or his main article? Both of the sources you list are very similar to the one given for his main page death. — WylieCoyote (talk) 15:47, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I thought it's not so difficult to realize that the person who died at the age of 77 (b. June 23, 1934) is a Gujarati comedy actor born in Navagam village of Saurashtra as son of Girdharlal Bhimji Mehta. Whereas the totally DIFFERENT person who is described in the article is a theatre personality born in 1923 in Jhang Maghiyana as son of Pyare Lal Mehta. What's wrong is that the death notice is attributed to the wrong person. Wikipedia has no article about the man who died, the man in the article is still alive.--62.158.96.138 (talk) 18:11, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, now I understand what you are saying. I don't know how to link it here when there are similar names. Does anyone else? It should be noted as well at the Ramesh Mehta page that they are different, but I would say there would be an edit war on that page. — WylieCoyote (talk) 21:07, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I fixed the link on this deaths page. It seems from his obituary article that he was a comedian, first and foremost ... above and beyond being a playwright, director, and actor (as originally listed in this article). Thanks. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 21:59, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I changed the Wiki article back to the one who is alive and added a note to check here. — WylieCoyote (talk) 21:17, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
