Amartya Sen has four children, Nandana, Antara, Kabir, and Indrani, but only two are named. Would it be possible to add all four names to the article? It seems like it might be rather hurtful to leave two off.

Hi @
PhoebeHarvardEcon: if the other children are not notable in their own right then Wikipedia does not generally add the names. In this case, two of the children have their own articles and two don't. I hope this helps,

If unable to provide references, please remove "Nationality" in the right info block and change Citizenship: United States to Citizenship: India (or Republic of India).
As of this writing Prof Sen is is listed in the information block as:
Nationality: Indian
Citizenship: United States
It would be news if he changed his citizenship in his 80's from Indian to US. India does not permit dual citizenship. The most recent reference I could find is a 2013 CV at Harvard, which says he's Indian.
