removing facts from nair art.sir i see that you removed cited fcats from Nair article. i request you not to allow your prejudices gain upperhand over factuality. regards. M T N you are mistaken sir. did you ever bother to read the paragraph i added? it is a specialist treatise specially for nairs and written by one belonging to that community. if marriage puberty ceremonies etc can be dealt with at length, the sexual part also needs to be treated. my opinion is that apart from mentioning this book in the article Samyogasuktha needs to have an article for itself.M.T. Narayanan 16:32, 23 June 2007 (UTC) Urgent AttentionHello Vivin, Lately i obtained a very old book (edition dated 1972) with title "Kerala" written by "Krishna Chaitanya", which vastly describes about everything any one wants to know about Kerala.Reffering to this book, i have planned to add 4 more topic to Malayalee article namely Races of Kerala, Sculpture, Painting and Crafts.I will finish this work on 22nd of July 2007. The book was published by National Book Trust,India and was part of the series India-Land and People.I did not find any ISBN number on the book.It costed 9.50 Rs. I want your valauble attention and full help in this venture.I don't think this book has some new editions.So can you build a database for the book from where i can give citations for my work? Pls reply.....
I got the book in Udupi Muncipal Library.The condition of the book is very pathetic.The information of thhe book on history, sculpture, crafts, painting are all relevent.Yes of course the other contents are not relevent as it is written in it that the literacy percentage in Kerala at that time was 60% and that of whole India is 29%! Pls reply.... ARUNKUMAR P.R 08:02, 23 June 2007 (UTC) POV IssueDear Vivin, I had posted a POV in the Nair article to initaiate a positive talk on the subject of Caste vs Community and cited ample reasons backed by quoting prominent Articles available including views of none less that Sreemad Chattambi Swamy,the pioneer of social reforms and authority on the Nair Community. Someone has deleted the same. This is quiet unfortunate and is not in good spirits and defies logic. Please take time out to visit the following to understand my point of view. http://www.nairs.org/home.php?swami http://www.nairs.org/home.php?aboutnairs Thanks Malabarspices 07:08, 25 June 2007 (UTC) Nair- A CommunityDear Vivin As you suggested , i have put up the new topic on the issue, backed by facts. The only intention is to highlight a fact which is generally overlooked. Please go through the same. A "Community" provides perfect neutrality as opposed to "Caste" and "Tribe". Hence please relook the same and edit the "Caste" portion in the Introduction part to "Community". I am sure that it makes a lot of sense to the Whole article and will widen the scope to even earlier Historic periods.Malabarspices 07:46, 26 June 2007 (UTC) Community -Not CasteDear Vivin I attempted for a debate brother. But things dont seem to move in the right spirits of a free media with induviduals "reaffirming" alternate views without any relevant links or documents. I am going to start protesting via POV's ,if debates are one sided inorder to challenge such "authoritarian" views which are seemingly baseless.Malabarspices 17:42, 26 June 2007 (UTC) Paliath AchanHey vivin, Ur article on Paliath Achan states that he was second in power to the Rajah of Cochin. I found mention in the TSM volume I which states otherwise. It infact states that the Paliath Achan was the ruler of Cochin during Marthanda Varma's times and that the Cochin Rajah had retired to a village known as Alwaye. Additional sentences in the same para lead me to believe that the Paliath Achan or Paliath Menon was the sole power in Cochin and the Rajah was more of a rubber stamp who from his village residence merely attested every act of the Achan. So technically while subordinate to the Rajah, it was the Achan who was the ruler, as clearly mentioned and that deserves mention. Cya :-) Manu

Thanks!Malayaliyan 07:41, 4 October 2007 (UTC) Nairs tcHi, I observed the article Malayalee..it is of full mistake whn concerned with castes.About Ambalavasi's someone is saying they are the sons of Nayars which is utter rubbish. But it is very sad to see these ind of wars for mere caste purpose. I had severe difficulties in writing Nambiar (Ambalavasi), Ambalavasi etc. Lines like: Likewise the Chakyars have originated from the union of a Kshatriya male and a Namboodiri female....The Ambalavasis proper including Warriers, Pothuvals, save for the Pisharodys have originated from prohibited unions between Nair men and Namboodiri women. Since they came from a patriarchal Brahmin mother and a matriarchal Nair father they were given a position below the Brahmins but above the Nairs are utter nonsense! I will also try to edit. But plz understand one othing-you will see lot of pro-Nair persons here with some kind of vengeance.go through this Sreekanthv 08:09, 5 October 2007 (UTC) Re:MalayaleeSorry, but I don't think I know any experts on the subject.

I feel the Ezhava editors seem to have an group inferiority complex, which shouldn't be the case, however despite this I totally agree that it contains some levels of POV, the information concerning the community is generally cherry picked and misleading, and the article generally poorly written. However I feel editing the content in a more objective way will be thrown back by revert happy Ezhava users who seem set to co-operate to keep the article showing a rosy POV history of the community. —Preceding unsigned comment added by B Nambiar (talk • contribs) 17:05, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for taking the tag so constructively. I still think it needs more citations but it is great that you are working on it and it will encourage others to do the same so it is fine with me if you leave the template off. A good thing to remember, if you are really interested in the article, is that if you find information in it that you feel is incorrect, you can remove it if it is not sourced. Any editor can remove unsourced material. Good work and thanks for the message!

In simple terms these are sounds that are produced with a lot of air (aspiration). The "stops" refer to those sounds that are made by stopping completely the flow of air. In English, they are /p/, /t/, /k/, /b/, /d/, and /g/. In each case, the air is, if only for a moment, completely stopped by some constriction in the speech apartus (teeth, lips, tongue, or various places in the mouth). In general, in English, the voiced stops (/b/, /d/, /g/) are unaspirated, that is, they are produced without a strong expiration on the release of the sounds. However, the voicless stops (/p/, /t/, /k/) in Enlish are generally strongly aspirated, that is, a strong expiration follows the production of each sound. However, if these voiceless stops follow an /s/, then they are not aspirated. For example, the [p] sound in pin is aspirated but in spin it is unaspirated.

Hello Mr VivnThanks for spceial interest and contribution to Ezhava related pages. hopes you show will same interest toi the nonsense to nair related pages. Do you think Nair article is full of nonsense? List of Nairs is subjected to delete just like List of enotable ezhavas. Nambiar (Nair Subcaste)has a large family listing and people listing which are not at all referenced. Its better we unneccarily go into a caste war. We will forced come and prove as nairs women are prostitutes (i can show 100s blogs on the net which proves that done bye some people who have been humiliated by the nair fanactis of wiki). 04:25, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Biased EditsThe User_talk:Vivin was working on Ezhava and nair related pages. He including POVs in naor page and while adding false information about ezhavas in ezhava article and was removing a lot information in that article like this. Its true that the issue is being discussed in orkut and i am one of the member of the that forum and even some went and faxed to SNDP yogam(an organizatuon of the ezhavas). There are many books written on Sambandam(literally means Sexual relationship). And all the books says One section of the nair woman did prostituion which like americal prostituite which is actively dicussed in Talk:Nair. A lot of infromation is lost in ezhav article by the edits of Ricky81682 and User_talk:Vivin. Tn pillai (talk) 06:02, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
