A fact from this article was featured on Wikipedia's Main Page in the On this day section on December 6, 2020 and December 6, 2023. |
The person is question is almost universally referred to as just "Devan Nair", so that's the correct name for the article. The Chengara Veetil bit, which I'd never even heard of before Wikipedia, is trivia and can stay in the content. Jpatokal 03:58, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC) The C.V. is far from "trivial" - it relates to family of origin Drrian ( talk) 03:06, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
That's my question: I read somewhere that he got arrested during the late 1950's, for among other things, along with Lim Chin Siong for being involved in stirring unrest. Is this the same one? I just got confused, because only now did I realise if that if they were two separate persons, they have the same name. -- Natalinasmpf 20:18, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
That's my question: As per my knowlege, am from Champad, still his relatives are in my native place.
I came to know his ancetors belongs to cherukunnu in kannur district.
I would be interested in any knowledge of his ancestors/relatives from Kerala - please message me (Nair relative) Drrian ( talk) 03:09, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
This has been removed, it is fact, and while not very flattering adds to the page and insight into the circumstances surrounding his resignation. I believe that it should be included no matter what other "on high" reasons you might give for not including it.
For sure. I'm not arguing there, please note tho that the phrasing of my addition did not imply any actual denigration of Devan Nair, nor was it insinuating at all. As noted this was a well publicised story (if you dig up any Malaysian news paper at the time you fill find it. I am unsure how well it was covered in Singapore) it is definitely certain that most Singaporeans know of or had some contact with the story. I am not Singaporean nor Malaysian and tend to believe I have an objective view on this matter. I certainly have no personal interest in it aside from improving the quality of content on Wikipedia. Please let me remind you that this is NOT your baby project to care after it is a social collaborative medium. Regardless of your personal views. (Based on the revision history of this page it's fairly certain that both of you have vested interests in this and other Singapore related topics for some reason). Again the story adds much detail to the type of mudslinging that may or may not have been apparent in his later career.
