Major cleanup needed

I have added a bunch of tags to the article...I don't mean to be obnoxious, but just wanted to be as clear as possible.

Exhaustive lists of movie theaters, textile showrooms and schools are unnecessary in the context of an encyclopedia article. Also, the giant list of "famous personalities" is lacking wiki links and/or sources...as a result, there's no way to verify if most of these people are actually notable (refer to this article for more info about Misplaced Pages's notability requirements).

Overall, I appreciate the work the editors have put into this article - I was specifically looking for info about Solapur after seeing its name mentioned in a news article, and was glad to find it. However, this article definitely needs to be cleaned up, and it'd be great if someone familiar with the topic was willing to give it a shot.fdfgghyyyyy -Rhrad (talk) 15:02, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Kannada chauvinism

Akkalkot may have good no. of Kannadigas.Of course articles from deccan herald claims the facts. Everyone is entitled to their opinion

Telugu Community

Solapur is very famous for Textile Industries, Solapur Chaddars and Towels are Famous not only in India but also in other countries, to make Solapur proud. It has many communities, one of them is which speaks Telugu and is called Padmashali’s.It is believed that Padmavathi of Mangapura of Tirupati declares that she was the daughter of Padmashali. Hence, the name Padmashali.

The chief occupation of the Padmashili community is weaving. They are recognized for their hardwork and sincerity. And with their expertise and skill they have earned a prominent place of pride in Solapur City — Preceding unsigned comment added by Reddiz (talk • contribs) 17:48, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

Reverts

The following sentences are being edited out by someone:

A melting pot with a confluence of Marathi, Telugu and Kannada languages

Should we not be proud of this diversity? Anyway, source is the Maharashtra government website, here.

The word "Kannada" in Kannada saint and revolutionary Basavanna

There can be no dispute about this, surely?? Just hatred for all things "Kannadi"?

Removal of Kannada, Telugu and Sanskrit from from sentence about Vrutta Darshan

Vrutta Darshan is a Marathi channel. Those people have the goodness, and also the good sense, to offer newscasts in various languages. This is a fact. What incomprehensible chauvinism demands that this fact be hidden? Same with theatres offering Telugu movies and newspapers in various languages.

Please understand that the (unintended) effect of all these chauvinist reverts is to suppress all the goodness of the Marathi people (and they are on the whole very, very good people) and cause the world to believe that they are all horrible chauvinists. Please also understand that mention of the existance of non-Marathi people is not laying the ground for break-up of Maharashtra. That cannot be. I have removed the sentence about Akkalkot because this page is not the one to mention all that. Please let the other sentences stand. Regards, ImpuMozhi 13:59, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Comments

If there is info about mixed Kannada- Marathi community in Belgaum and the border dispute then why not here? Someone please get census stats on the percentages of Kannad and Marathi people in this city. Blnguyen | BLabberiNg 04:57, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

There is also a lot of stuff missing. The history seems to have two random historical incidents. Need more geographic info, and info about the people. Blnguyen | BLabberiNg 05:30, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Vandalism on Solapur Page

Look at the lines inserted by user Mahawiki " It is unfortunate that Maharashtra took away Solapur from Karnataka and shamelessly demanding Belgaum."

Statements like this don't help anyone. This should be treated as users inserting statements of factual inaccuracy and misleading, a version of vandalism.

Dear Mahawiki, I have deleted this statement, please refrain from inserting such NPOV statements.

Sonnalige Siddharama

As one can see above the user coolninad had thought the pro-Kannada POV was inserted by me.This version of Solapur article has been checked by admin.Any additions/deletions should back by citations.KNM is producing no sensible citations.Plz provide publication house,ISBN no etc of the book.Morever that source can trashed if found biased.That is ofcourse with the consent of admin.Stop pushing Kannadi POV.

Mahawiki 06:24, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Mahawiki, that information added by User:Onlyfact were not POV. They are facts. I have added the citation.

Ok, here is the Google-books weblink for that book.

Also, these pages give you clear information on Sonnalige was the earlier name of the city, and details about Sonnalige Siddharama.

Hope it is fine with you now. Please do not revert back the cited information.

Thank you. - KNM 06:46, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Language Chavunism --- once again....Please stop this

Hello All,

About Solapur Demographics, the nclm.nic.in site says there are 46 % Kannada speaking people in 'SOLAPUR Tehsil(Taluk).' and not in 'SOLAPUR CITY'. As far as my knowledge, M.C stands for Municipal corporation.Teshil definately means Taluk, look at wikipedia article for th same.However there is a mention of 23 % Telugu people. THIS IS AN ARTICLE RELATED TO SOLAPUR CITY ONLY. Also, here is an extract from the Karnataka CET brouchure 2007 about eligibility. (http://cet.kar.nic.in/Brochure%202007a.pdf) - Page 20. "A candidate whose mother tongue is Kannada, Tulu or Kodava should have resided and studied in disputed Kannada speaking area of 'South Sholapur' or Akkalkot or Jath or Gadhinglaj Taluks of Maharashtra State or Kasargod Taluk of Kerala State. The candidate shall undergo a Kannada Language test, which will be conducted by the CET Cell on 10-05-2007 at 2.00 p.m. to establish his ability to speak, read and write Kannada."

Now, Solapur City clearly lies in North Solapur Tehsil(See map on Main page of http://solapur.gov.in/ if you like).Its absolutely O.K to mention about cultural diversities,Just because Belgaum is claimed by Maharashtra, does not mean you should have tit-for-tat attitude.

Vandalism
