The what?

BR Hills-MM Hills-Sathyamangalam-Gundiyal? Please don't use acronyms, thanks. Adraeus 03:19, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Timeline

The article says he killed his infant child in July 1993 but the timeline says 1997. Which is right? Martyman 02:49, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Perhaps they were seperate children. Gedca 04:53, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

'Baby' Veerappan was the name of a gang member, it does not refer to Veerappan's daughter. Baby Veerappan was called so probably because he was young and slotted to take over the leadership of the gang. Jay 14:22, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

my 2 cents

To clarify the following....

BR Hills-MM Hills-Sathyamangalam-Gundiyal....... BR hills - Billigiri Ranganna hills MM hills - Malai Mahadeswara hills all of these are different regions in the forest range which spans over 3 states i.e. karnataka, Tamilnadu and kerala

Veerappan being loved by the poor is a part of his survival program. In his support system were also the villagers who were the only ones that could supply veerappan and gang with all the provisions like food, sanitary supplies. As a reward they would be rewarded with money. They were also terrified by him as was very ruthless and would not hesitate to kill in case anyone leaked any information. So more than being like robinhood i think this was a by-product of the the support system.

Why was he liked by India's poor? If anyone knows anything of this, it would be good to add it to the article. Otherwise, it looks like a great article.

Copyright violation

Dear Sirs, i am not that firm in the navigation of your contact options, so in case in not your job to deal with this kind of letters, please forward.

on your article on K.M. Veerappan you have published a photo taken from our site www.suedasien.net.

We have not give you permission to do so, since we do not hold the copyright of the photo either. To avoid legal problems, we would like to ask you cordially to remove the statement "Photo by Suedasien-Informationsnetz" from the page http://en.wikipedia.org/Image:Koose_Muniswamy_Veerappan.jpg.

If you forward this mail to the author of the excellent article on veerappan, please tell him/her, that nevertheless we would be happy if a link to our page is somewhere placed, maybe as "external link". in regard of the photo, we guess it is a somehow edited photo originally published by "Frontline", an Indian political magazine. The auther may ask the editers over there.

thank you for removing the statement.
may your baby grow!

Yours: Torsten Otto, Suedasien-Infonetz Berlin, Germany.

Accordingly, I deleted the image. Good relationship are always better than one fair use image. SweetLittleFluffyThing 17:58, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Robin Hood comparison

The comparison between Robin Hood and Veerappan is a contentious one, and therefore I've put the term 'Robin Hood of India' in quotes to reflect this.

Extreme Bias

Someone made very biased edits to parts of this article, saying that the Indian government is corrupt, covered up the scandal, and killed a hostage to make Veerappan look bad. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Exander (talk • contribs) 04:53, 12 May 2007 (UTC).

Removing WikiProject templates

Dineshkannambadi, please stop removing the WikiProject Dravidian civilizations and WikiProject Tamil civilizations templates. Furthermore these are not fake templates, but templates of actual WikiProjects. Wiki Raja (talk) 03:10, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

How is Veerappan related to Dravidian civilization? - KNM 18:37, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

He is a Dravidian just like you... Wiki Raja (talk) 03:19, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Stop talking about me and making original research on me and Veerappan. Provide a reliable source for your claims, else just stop this nonsense of claiming me of a civilization of a notorious criminal. Next time you do that, you will be reported to an admin. Consider this as a warning. - KNM 03:59, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
