Please change the spelling

the correct spelling is Dr.Yellapragada Subbarao

His work is worth Nobel prize in Medicine.

According to the link sourced in the article http://medind.nic.in/jac/t01/i1/jact01i1c1.shtml which is from Journal of Indian Academy of Medicine the correct name is Subbarow at least the name with which he worked so hard in America. So I feel the correct name is Subbarow and it should be changed back to that. Drankush (talk) 11:19, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No, the correct spelling of his name is not Yellapragada Subbarao. He chose to spell it Yellapragada Subbarow, and he published his papers using that spelling. It is not appropriate to claim that because other people spell their names Subbarao, that this amazing scientist did that too. Sminthopsis84 (talk) 21:05, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
