- Do not yet write the lead. Leave that for last.
- The following questions should be answered:
- Where is Orissa?
- What is the best source for geographical, economical, and demographic information for Orissa?
- What is the economic status of the state? It was described in several sources as one of the poorest states in India. What kind of poverty is that? What do people do for money and jobs?
- How long have people lived in Orissa?
- What have the most prevalent religions been in this state?
- When did Christianity take hold? How?
- What was the reaction to Christians proselytizing in Orissa? When was this?
- What is the relationship of Maoists and Christians?
- What caused the escalation of the conflicts in recent years?
- What are some of the examples of religious conflict in the state? How severe is it? How has the government of India and the state of Orissa responded? How have the groups involved responded? Have their responses exacerbated the conflict? What other factors have made it worse or better?
- What are the underlying reasons for the conflict? Is it simply religious, or is it based on economics, with two sides coincidentally identifying as religious sides?
- What has the world's reaction been to these conflicts? How do Christians, Maoists, and other groups interpret them? --Moni3 (talk) 22:32, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
