Shanka Basadi
  • ... that Shanka Basadi (one pictured) in Lakshmeshwara Jain temples, derives its name from the image of Neminatha in kayotsarga posture standing on a large shankha (conch)? https://books.google.co.in/books?id=m_y_P4duSXsC&pg=PA169
    • ALT1:... the Shanka Basadi (pictured), which is one of the Lakshmeshwara Jain temples, features a rare monolithic pillar with the carving of 1008 Tirthankaras (saviours and teachers of the dharma) and is known as the Sahasrakuta Jinabimba?

The copy edit of the page has now been complete. Pratyk321 (talk) 13:39, 29 June 2021 (UTC)


General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: Yes
  • Interesting: No - needs to link to kayotsarga and shankha. Should read "... that Shanka Basadi (pictured), part of the Lakshmeshwara Jain temples, derives its name from the image of Neminatha performing a kayotsarga posture standing on a large shankha (conch shell).
  • Other problems: No - the alternate hook may be interesting, but IMO needs some context. Definitely consider using a wikilink so folks can explore what is being referred to!
Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
QPQ: None required.

Overall: Earwig is fine. ALT2 as the hook passes. I'm going to give this a pass on the newness test, it is 10 days out from the initial creation, but you were the creator and by this point you had done a lot of work on it. Normally it would fail on this alone sadly, but unless anyone else objects I think it can be overlooked on this occasion. Aussie Article Writer (talk) 11:29, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

BlueMoonset sorry about that. - Aussie Article Writer (talk) 04:47, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
  • As suggested, I have rephrased the hook. Please let me know your thoughts on this?
ALT2b:... the Shanka Basadi (pictured), which is one of the Lakshmeshwara Jain temples, features a rare monolithic pillar with the carving of 1008 Tirthankaras (saviours and teachers of the dharma) and is known as the Sahasrakuta Jinabimba?

  • Pratyk321 much better, after a few modifications. So with the modifications to this alternative hook (which I have modified slightly) it would now fit the criteria. I do need to know, however, have my modifications satisfied accuracy? Are you ok with the changes? - Aussie Article Writer (talk) 15:58, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
