Is Yajnavalkya a mathematician ? Alren 17:27, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)
My source work on philosophy gives the date of Yajnavalkya as "About 600 B.C.", that is quite a difference from what it stands as currently. I know Indian philosophical movements tend to push the dates of their founders back quite a bit unnecessarily. Nagelfar 10:07, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

Yajnavalkya → Yājñavalkya – Multiple entries on early South Asian topics, such as Ānanda, Bādarāyaṇa, Gārgī Vāchaknavī, Mahākāśyapa, Parāśara, Puṇṇa Mantānīputta, Śabara, Śāriputra, Sīvali, Subhūti, Upāli, Uddālaka Āruṇi, Vātsyāyana, and Yaśodharā already have page names using the scholarly transcription of Indo-Aryan languages with diacritics. There should be a consistent standard for entries about early South Asian topics, and there is no reason why the entry for Yajnavalkya should be any different from the others.

@ Paine Ellsworth: The talk page's title is Talk:Yājñavalkya, but the article of which it is the talk page is titled Yajnavalkya, without the appropriate diacritics. Which is another reason why I reiterate my position in support of renaming the main article. Antiquistik ( talk) 12:24, 15 June 2022 (UTC)

This page needs to be like other Wikipedia biographies. If nothing or very little is known about their life, early life, date of birth, death etc. we can state that in the biography section. This page once had a history section. Some person with a prejudice against biographies seems to have made it disappear. PastaMonk 04:00, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
