Comment: It's a request to the closing user to consider the inclusion of the image with the passed hook as it's very rare that a lead hook related to world's 3rd largest religion appear on the Main Page

Article is new, long enough and neutral. It cites sources inline. "Earwig's Copyvio Detector" reports no significant text similarities. Both hooks are well-formatted, interesting and neutral. The lengths are within limit. Hook facts are cited inline, are but partly in foreign language., which I AGF for. Image is present in the article and is ©-free. QPQ was done. Good to go.

Hi, I came by to promote this, but the article needs an edit for English grammar. In particular, the article "the" is missing from many sentences, like: The temple was built in 17th century by Jalim Giri Baba and his family belonging to the Goswami community of the village. Here is a run-on sentence that needs commas or something to make sense: Before the takeover, all the offerings in the temple including donated money used to make the earning of the Goswami family and earnings from the stallage related to the organisation of annual nine days long fair were deposited to the gram panchaya. Please have someone go over the whole article. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 18:21, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yoninah, please take another look at the article. Zatsugaku has copy-edited the article.--Deepak G Goswami (talk) 15:34, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Please see the additional editing that I did to bring this up to snuff.
I made some tweaks to ALT0, and also want to note that "hanged to death" is very archaic; "hanged" is quite enough. It's a pretty gruesome hook for the lead image slot, however. Restoring tick for either hook per CeeGee's review. Yoninah (talk) 21:45, 5 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
