I'll review this one. Chiswick Chap (talk) 11:15, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
...in the form of Badrinarayan. What is that? It's redlinked, so an explanation would be helpful; else remove it.
...river Ganga: WP article is titled "Ganges", so best use that form please ("the river Ganges").
Architecture:
The Architecture section also covers location, statuary, and nearby hot springs; either move these, subdivide, or rename the section.
- I am a bit reluctant about having a two line section for Tapt Kund. I have renamed the section.
Both Hindu gods (like Garuda) and saints (like Adi Shankara) are named without any description; it might be wise to say "the gods Lakshmi, Garuda, ..." and "the saints Adi Shankara, Vedanta Desika ..." at least on first mention.
Done
...during the Vedic period. Might be best to say when that was, and indeed to link it.
Done
Why is the architecture seemingly Buddhist? This may need to be tied to the History section somehow.
History:
... is believed (repeatedly): Suggest replacing this with "According to Hindu legend", "Hindu believers hold that..." or "A traditional story asserts that ..." (or something similar).
Done
Garwal: I think we should standardize on the spelling "Garhwal" as the most usual.
Please also check the spelling of all placenames throughout the article.
- Done - have linked as well.
Legend: I added 'lotus' to gloss padmasana.
Jujubi tree: please rename and link this to "jujube (Indian date) tree".
Pilgrimage:
...heads of various Mutts: what are these? Might need linking. Citation needed, too.
Festivals and religious practices:
I've linked a couple of religious rituals (aarti ...); I expect several others could also be linked.
- Have linked the generic ones and left specific ones of the temple.
Overall:
Overall this is a well-written and properly structured article with no sign of OR, and once these minor issues are fixed I'll be happy to pass it. Good work. Chiswick Chap (talk) 12:48, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
