Since I've been asked to share my inputs here is what I feel:
= Nichalp ( Talk)= 08:32, May 23, 2005 (UTC)
Avoid too small paragraphs; say which are only having two sentences. It is fair to have at least 15 lines for a paragraph
I see a lot of work being done on this article but the problem is that none seem to be adding any new content. If we can do that , I think we can be a FA easily sumal 05:43, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
The annual temple festival, held in March 6 to march 20, is a colourful event.March 6 is kodiyettu (Starting of this festival), there will be events in Pookoth Nada (1 km from Trichambaram temple) for 14 days till the Koodipiriyal(Ending of this festival) on March 20
Is there a need to mention it? Jisha C J 07:28, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
Regarding festival date this yea - no idea!
The date is not relevant for the Festival. It's basically from Malayalm Month "Kumbham - 22 to Meenam - 6" which normally falls on March 6th and March 20 respectively.

It's nice to inform everybody that today's Young World section of The_Hindu newspaper has reproduced a photograph (a view of Arabian sea from St. Angelo's Fort) appearing in Wikipedia page on Kannur Distritct. Here is the link: * St.Angelo's Fort MANOJTV 13:54, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
There is an article Malik Dinar Mosque which talks about a mosque in Kasaragod. Is this different from the Madayi Malik Dinar mosque mentioned in Kannur District article, or is there a confusion?
The "white marble from Mecca" story is repeated in the Cheraman Jama Masjid at Kodungallur (see section: Sights in the Kodungallur page). Is the white marble actually present in both the mosques?

I have nominated Kannur District Article for good article nomination . I hope you will all vote to make it one. sumal 14:25, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
This article requires references, the biggest problem with out references how fact be checked. Take this example, in the demographics section population in 2001 was 2.4 million in the infobox the 2004 population was 2.2 million. Additionally it needs a copy edit to remove POV/weasel wording and a reformat of image positioning. Suggest that the gallery at the end of the article be linked to a wikicommons cat.

This article says - Thalassery –Kodagu road and the Thalassery – Mysore road are the other important roads. - there is only one road from Tellicherry to the Kerala border Koottupuzha via Iritty, Mattannur. see Thalassery Coorg Highway in List_of_State_Highways_in_Kerala - ShajiA ( talk) 15:29, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
The article is titled Kannur district, but it's written as Kannur District throughout the article. Does anyone know for sure which is correct? Tripnoted ( talk) 05:27, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
Dear Tripnoted, according to Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Capital letters, capitals are to be used only minimally. But Indians are more comfortable with capitals title cases. -- Prof TPMS ( talk) 02:26, 4 February 2016 (UTC)
The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Kannur district/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.
The first Indian mosque was built in 629 A.D, at the behest of Cheraman Perumal, during the life time of Muhammad (c. 571–632) in Kodungallur by Malik Bin Deenar.[11][12][13]
From [1] But in this articel you are saying that Malik Bin Deenar built this mosque in 1124. I think first one is correct. |

I would like to add an etymology section containing the following:
The old name 'Cannanore' is the anglicized form of the Malayalam word 'Kannur'. Some believe 'Kannur' originated from 'Kanathur', an ancient village whose name still exists as one of the wards in Kannur Municipality. Another theory is that the name 'Kannur' stems from Hindu mythology, combining 'Kannan' ( Krishna) with 'Ur' (place), referring to the Sree Krishna shrine at Katalayi Kotta near Kannur. [1] [2]
