How many people?

Is this article about two people? There seem to be Bhartṛhari the grammarian, Bhartṛhari the philosopher-poet, and Bharthari the king's brother. Shreevatsa (talk) 16:26, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

it may be exaggerated to disambiguate here. The best approach might be to keep three articles, Vākyapadīya on the grammatical work, Śatakatraya on the poetical work, and Bhartṛhari on the date and authorship question. --dab (𒁳) 09:41, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds like a good idea. I'll get to it to sometime myself, if you don't beat me to it. (I was wondering a little whether Śatakatraya is fine, since the original work doesn't call it that, and it's just used as a convenient name for "the three Śatakas", but it appears to be common enough.) Shreevatsa (talk) 14:47, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done now, more or less. The text can be improved, but the articles are at the right places. Shreevatsa (talk) 07:45, 29 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Mahabhasya commentary

Apparently a commentary to Patanjali's Mahabhasya is also attributed to Bhartrhari. This is a very obscure text apparently received only via a single incomplete ms. and it is rather questionable how seriously this "attribution" is to be taken. The piece of information was inserted by Thrasuboula (talk · contribs), who seems to have good access to Bhartrhari-related info, but who does not seem to have a good grasp of how to arrange information relative to its relevance. The same user wrote the rather eccentric article "Bhartrhari's paradox" which basically reports the existence of a 1981 research paper. --dab (𒁳) 09:21, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
