Move

I have moved Amman (goddess) to Mariamman. Discussion was at Amman (goddess) talk page, and no objections were raised. --BostonMA 00:54, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In my opinion it was a mistake to merge these two articles as Amma or Amman is a generic name for all female godesses where as Mariamman is just one aspect of this worship. Others are Yellammadevi, Kolaramma, Pidari .... .Althoughg some Hindus might equate Amman with Mariamman (particularly certain segments of Tamils) it is not so across South India and in the Indian Diaspora 216.95.15.32 01:21, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to see a brief article called Amman (goddess) that makes this clear and links to this page. As it is, Amma or Amman has disappeared--The Lesser Merlin (talk) 13:00, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sitala in Bengali?

http://www.pantheon.org/articles/s/sitala.html Lisamh 02:16, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mariaai or Mother Mari मरीआई is a female deity found in many of Maharashtra's villages, the priest is usually non-Brahman. 117.195.22.87 (talk) 21:56, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

this appears to be a bad translation and should be massively improved or deleted. --ProfPolySci45 (talk) 22:33, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion

This page should not be speedily deleted because it does not fall under Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion. The goddess is clearly notable, but the article needs a cleanup. --Redtigerxyz ^Talk 16:41, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Inappropriate image

The photo given in this page does not resemble Goddess Mariamman. Mariamman, being a Goddess predominantly worshipped by Dravidians(south Indians), the image found here is that of a Goddess worshipped in North India(may be Goddess Sitala). So the image is inappropriate here. One can search for how exactly Goddess Mariamman looks like. The present photo is to be removed and replaced with a correct one. --Praveenskpillai (talk) 08:05, 3 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It is an accurate depiction of Mariamman. See her sculpture at Sri Mariamman Temple, Singapore (1827). --Redtigerxyz ^Talk 13:25, 3 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
