Pudumai Pithan (புதுமை பித்தன்), Pulamai Pithan (புலமை பித்தன் )
The former is a writer, critic of needless social rituals, outspoken and known for his short stories, translated works of famous foreign authors.
The latter is a movie song lyricist, worked with MSV & Ilayaraja and gave us some of the memorable songs in Thamizh movies.
Both are two different personalities and lived during different periods.
Wiki mixed up these two especially in the page about Pulamai Pithan (mentioned him as Puthumai Pithan). Thank God, they didn't do this in the page for the other.
After reading, for a brief period of time, I was a Pithan (பித்தன்) myself and then realized the typo.
