i have tried to modify the article....Please comment --Aravind Parvatikar 08:33, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kannada Text Compatability

I converted the text Vijapur in kannada with the help of Kannada Unitext Convertor. If I view the page in Internet Explorer it is being shown properly, but same is not the case with Firefox. The one in with the tag Internet Explorer is correct--Aravind Parvatikar 13:54, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Review

The lead is too short. It should be a summary of the entire article. Approx 250-300 words
The article consists of topics containg information related to both the city and district. According to the Indian district conventions, this article should contain only city-related information. Bijapur district should contain the district related information. Please split. (See Mysore, Mysore district and Mysore division.
The history is too short. At least six paragraphs are required.
=Geography= should follow history.

The article should be cleaved before I can review further. Regards, =Nichalp «Talk»= 04:44, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

Note: I have removed the redirect from Bijapur District to Bijapur. Since both of them led to confusion.

I will be editing them to bring in clarity between Bijapur and Bijapur District

Oppose WP:COMMONNAME. --Redtigerxyz ^Talk 19:04, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"Vijapura" is actually used fairly often, unlike some of these new official names, and it is not newly invented. However, the nominator ought to discuss which name is commonly used, so I'm inclined to oppose… —innotata 22:51, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per WP:COMMONNAME. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:57, 22 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
