I object to your proposal to delete the page on Sri Siddhalingeshwara Swamy Temple on the following grounds.

1) It pertains to a prominent place of worship which is a part of Hinduism and Veerashaivism and Lingayatism, a hugely popular sect in the Hindu religion.

2) It pertains to a very prominent Veerashaiva Teacher, Reformer and Saint.

3) It is a place of piligrimage and a tourist destination where thousands of people visit regularly. So I strongly believe it deserves to be mentioned on wikipedia.

I have made the following changes in the article.

a) I have discussed about the temple and the festivals that are observed as per hindu tradition. b) I have discussed about Sri Siddhalingeshwara Swamy. c) I have added references from where more information about Veerashaivism and the Veerashaiva / Lingayat Saint Sri Siddhalingeshwara Swamy can be obtained.
