do we use "Mysuru" or "Mysooru" as we do for Bengalooru? Bdeepu 07:43, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
A railway connection Between Mysore and Mettupalyam is a important line Because it will be a connection for north and south it is a important line for the state it will also decrease the distance taken for going to Kerala so the Project should me started as early as possible. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.241.248.67 ( talk) 14:35, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
I believe, there needs to be a mention about official renaming of the city's name from Mysore to Mysuru. Right now, the article just says officially Mysuru in lead, and doesn't give any explanation later. We could take references used in Bangalore article I guess. Thanks, - KNM Talk 05:18, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
All the contributors of this article and other editors: A request has been placed for the formal peer review at Wikipedia:Peer review/Mysore. Thanks - KNM Talk 17:20, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
I think it would be appropriate to mention "Mysore is the third largest city in Karnataka in terms of population" in the first sentence rather than just saying "One of the largest cities in Karnataka". Here is the reference. Gnanapiti 17:32, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
I have a couple of images of Nandi. Can/Do we fit one of these somewhere in the article? The Nandi, I believe actually underwent an elaborate ritual cleaning process and I think it really looks fresh and new :)

Mysore Palace Night.jpg has a "© Vijay Pandey" watermark on the bottom right corner, the original image was cropped to remove the watermark. even if it was on Flickr on a Creative Commons license, doesn't the copyright watermark mean that the Flickr image was improperly licensed? -- Chris Ssk talk 11:30, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
Why is Cupertino, California listed as Mysore's sister city? This needs to be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chinmayee srivathsa ( talk • contribs) 07:26, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
The article mentions about the break-up of religions in the city and is supported by a govt website. I think the break-up given there in the website is district-wise and not city-wise. -- Commander (Ping Me) 16:49, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
I had made an addition to the sports section [ [1]] and it was reverted by User:Abhishek191288 saying that it was not discussed, there are enough reliable sources about the person. I don't know why the addition was reverted -- sarvajna ( talk) 14:48, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
I copied the article today and have the following comments on it:
The first paragraph of the Media section isn't good, because it looks like a collection of half-completed lists:
These expressions leave the reader with the impression that you have in mind an oncomplete list of things you're eager to mention, but, lacking a framework for this, they have just been dumped any old how. The reader is left wondering which if any of them are really notable, and whether there are others just as notable. One way to solve this would be to rewrite the paragrah as follows:
Newspaper publishing in Mysore started in 1859 when Bhashyam Bhashyacharya began publishing a weekly newspaper in Kannada called the Mysooru Vrittanta Bodhini, the first of a number of weekly newspapers published in the following three decades.[85] A well-known Mysore publisher during Wodeyar rule was M. Venkatakrishnaiah, known as the father of Kannada journalism, who started several news magazines.[86] Many local newspapers are published in Mysore and carry news mostly related to the city and its surroundings.[87] Sudharma, the only Indian daily newspaper in Sanskrit, is published in Mysore.[88]
Note that this completely deletes the sentence:"Popular newspapers include Times of India, The Hindu and Deccan Herald in English, and Prajavani and Vijaya Karnataka in Kannada, since none of those are published in Mysore (one is in Delhi, one in Chennai, and the rest in Bangalore).
The Tourism section has the same problem: it reads like a non-comprehensive list of one-line adverts. --

The sound file seems to stress the second syllable, but the IPA pronunciation guide indicates that stress should be on the first syllable. Which is correct? 129.105.28.71 ( talk) 01:52, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
Just noticed that both Merriam-Webster and the OED indicate that stress should be on the second syllable. Given that evidence and the audio file, I'm going to assume that the Wikipedia page needs to be changed.

Is there any data on the historic population of Mysore? Most city pages have this table under the demographics section. I'm not familiar enough with the Indian censuses to create the table on my own. Thanks. Mattximus ( talk) 23:42, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

Mysuru city retained the top position in Swachh Bharat Rankings for 2015 that were release by the Ministry of Urban Development. In a year long survey,the researchers studied 476 first tier cities with two parameters; one, how 'minimal' open defecation was in the city; two, how robust the municipalities were with solid waste management system. Mysuru was found impressive on the both the counts [1]
what is wrong in this??? why people are interested in taking away the No.1 ranking???

My recent edit to this page was reverted as it appeared to the editor to be WP:ADVOCACY of a particular point of view, specifically waste management in Indian cities or by Indian municipalities. I am relatively new to Wikipedia and see myself as a steward for water, sanitation and solid waste management related content on the site. These are the issues that I intend to write about in a neutral, balanced and informative manner. On reading my edits to the Mysore page you will find that all of the content is verifiable i.e. it is sourced from reliable and published sources. My writing style, in my opinion, is (1) fact based, (2) neutral in tone without any puffery, contentious labels or unsupported attributions and (3) balanced i.e. holistic and not highlighting fringe views. I do not regard my edits as WP:ADVOCACY and would like to restore the content.

This article was promoted to FA many years ago. Since then the FA criteria have become more clearly defined and in my humble opinion this article is no longer worthy of the FA star. My main concern is the lack of citations and the ones used are a little dated. Can we resolve these issues and avoid an FA review? Graham Beards ( talk) 23:43, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
