QPQ done, sufficient length of article, did some tweeks here and there. Hook is verified. However, the article says ..."Subbaraman was born on 14 August 1905 to a wealthy Saurashtra family"; the reference of which i can't find. Its not in the ref provided at the end of sentence. Also please add space after every period. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 17:25, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

I have some sources but they are in snippet view. Gfosankar (talk) 06:21, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

You should add best one of those in the article. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 13:50, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

Done. --Gfosankar (talk) 07:41, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Good to go! §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 08:38, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Sorry, but the hook isn't very catchy. How about:
ALT1: ... that Indian freedom fighter and politician N. M. R. Subbaraman was known as "Madurai Gandhi"? Yoninah (talk) 21:32, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

Like that! That hook is also well sourced. Let Gfosankar decide. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 07:19, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

OK with ALT hook. --Gfosankar (talk) 05:09, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

for ALT1. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 07:33, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
