Talk:List of Bhojpuri people

Name Change

I suggest the article name to be Changed to List of notable Bhojpuri people, because the title "List of Bhojpuri people" would indicate that it is a list of all the people that are Bhojpuriyas (which is about 50 million people) when in fact this list is only about the famous people from that ethnolinguistic group (see first sentence of article).

Comment How do we even know that all the people on this list considered themselves to be Bhojouri/have Bhojpuri heritage? Mccapra (talk) 09:37, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support - as per Lucasorigami and John B123. And I agree with Mccapra that there is an issue with who belongs on the list. I just went through each person on the list and removed all where there is not a single one of these has evidence on their talk page that they are Bhojpuri, which is different than being from Bhojpur. I think a note has to be added to this page to indicate that only folks who have evidence on their WP that they are Bhojpuri, not simply from Bhojpur, should be added to the list.
