Review Request

Hello, I have recently made significant changes to the main article of Jainism and have listed it for peer-review. I would like your opinion on it. Rahuljain2307 (talk) 14:45, 24 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Dev Deepawali (Varanasi)

On 28 November 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Dev Deepawali (Varanasi), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that about 100,000 people visit Varanasi today (pictured) to see the city and the Ganges lit with lamps? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Dev Deepawali (Varanasi). You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page).==Ekadashi and Shakthipeet articles==

In fact I also thought of writing to you to get it posted for that day. It is fine. Also see now Shivaharkaray or Karavipur. As far as Varuthini Ekadashi is concerned I could not find much in the google books. There was in one book a mention of the Vamana being the god worhsipped on this day, but I am unable to open those pages in J.Melton's book. I am sure with your very rich libarary will be able to find more to add. Thanks.--Nvvchar. 08:17, 28 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I did extensive search on Varuthani Ekadashi and came to the same conclusions. I thought may be you have more books in your personal collection which could provide some link to Vamana. Now you are confirming that there is nothing available to link the ekadasi to Vamana, please finalize the article without an img of Vamana in the infobox. It it long enough for a DYK? The other subjects mentioned by you are also interesting. Right now, as suggested by you earlier, I have started Tulasi in Hinduism. As a Vaishnavite it has special importance for me. On the Shakthi Peetha article, I have started on one more in Pakistan Shivaharkaray or Karavipur. I hope you can add more and also find a picture of Mahishasuramardhni which can fit the infox. We could do two more of the peethas in Bangladesh, one in Srilanka also.--Nvvchar. 12:48, 28 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That is nice. Now probably you could restore the img and use it with additional referenced text for hook.--Nvvchar. 13:04, 28 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I started info box on Hinglaj Mata on 18th but the actual addition was started on 27th, due for nom on 1st December. I am naming the article Vishvaruap as Vishvarupa Darshan and Tulsi as Tulsi in Hinduism. Let me know your views.--Nvvchar. 10:21, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I will nominate it. What about Shivaharkaray? I could not locate any more references on the subject. Is it all right to nominate it at this level of text?--Nvvchar. 10:18, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have edited Tulsi in Hinduism further with references which were left out by oversight. Today is the last day for nomination. Can it be nominated today with a suitable hook. Thanks.--Nvvchar. 07:55, 3 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the nomination. I will work on Vishvarupa Darshan soon. You may like to suggest some book references, apart from the Puranas.--Nvvchar. 06:28, 4 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have completed these two articles today, Gundicha Temple and Anantashayana Vishnu. SidSahu is also collboarating. You may like to edit and add. There is time for DYK.

Thanks for suggesting references to be used in the Gundicha Temple article. Reference to the history of Narasimha is probably not relevant as the Narasimha temple is another district of Sonar and Sidsahu confirms that this reference is not relevant to Gundicha. Hence, I have added from the other three references and completed my inputs. You may like to add more and edit.--Nvvchar. 08:50, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I suppose Rath Yatra is held wherever Jagannath Temples have been built. I am skeptical since there is no mention of King Indradyumna is this reference. I have gone by what Sidsahu who is from Orissa feels about it. I have no problem if you wish to include it.--Nvvchar. 15:03, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about the confusion, my friend. We have done so many articles together and such an error has happened for the first time. Sidsahu appeared to be in a great hurry to nominate it and I realised it only when he posted it on the DYK. I corrected the hook also as Sahu appears to be new to the DYK nomination procedure. I made a note of this on sidsahu's talk page. Please add an alt hook and also your name to the credit list. It is always nice to include your name in the list. Thanks.--Nvvchar. 11:33, 8 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sidsahu has also confirmed on my talk page. Please go ahead and suggest the Alt Hook with the new image. I will the your name to the credit list. --Nvvchar. 15:22, 8 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have completed my inputs to Vishvarupa article. I have fixed imgs in the sections. You are welcome to change them. I would be glad if it is posted as an independent article rather than a double with Ekadashi article. It will draw lot of attention. I wonder why nobody wrote on it in the past. It also needs to be fixed properly in the disambiguation page. Thanks.--Nvvchar. 05:27, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You are a superstar

The Multiple Barnstar

Six barnstars for your work on Hinduism. Every article I look at, I see your handiwork. Appreciate the elbow grease. Parsh (talk) 22:58, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I know I said thanks before, but I'm going through the Vishnu avatars and it looks like you wrote every article...! Impressive dedication. Parsh (talk) 22:57, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Two articles?

I am unable to figure out difference between these two articles Murugan and Kartikay. Aren't they supposed to be same? §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 11:46, 30 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry i couldn't look into it much deeper. I still am unclear of the differences. Is it just that both are attributed separately by different text? But both are basically same, right? Shiva and Parvati's first son?
I simply wanted to point it out to you as you would easily be able to take care of it, by merging or splitting, as you now say. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 06:43, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Naraka

I liked the article. Very grueling punishments for variety of misdeeds. Some punishments are really imaginative, like the one involving sea of semen! You can actually put this for FA, if you are sure about comprehensiveness. I mean you have not missed any significant hells, have you? --Dwaipayan (talk) 19:13, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have also started Maricha and Kaurwaki. You may like to add. I have also asked Dr. Blofeld to join for these two articles--Nvvchar. 16:42, 12 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Fine. I did not find any book references to Kaurwaki and wahtever are there talk about Kareena Kapoor and Ashoka (film). Yes, I mean Vaikuntha Chaturdashi. I will start on it today. Can I use the GSB site reference? Sidsahu wants Ranganatha to be expanded to 5x and he has given three references. Would you like to join on this article? Yes, there is problem with the expansion of Anantashayana Vishnu; short by about 1300 ch. Can't find any additional references. Any suggestions on that?--Nvvchar. 10:10, 13 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have started Vaikuntha Chaturdashi. you may like to add to it. Will you please nominate Maricha and Datta Jayanti. Today is the last date.--Nvvchar. 03:02, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dr. Blofeld has not shown any interest in it.--Nvvchar. 03:09, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have added some text to Anantashayana Vishnu. Please if adds to 5x requirement aince I don't have the toll to check it. Also pl suggest an alternate hook if the length of the article satisfies the DYK requirements. Actually I started Maricha expansion of the 11th. I am unable to sit even due to severe chest condition. I will reply tomorrow morning. Thanks.--Nvvchar. 16:10, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the revised hookAnantashayana Vishnu. I hope the DYK will go through now. I have also addressed the reviewcomments of the reviewer on Vimala Temple GA nomination. Except that I could not locate one reference "that Vimala was installed here, even before Jagannath in the central shrine." With changaes Maricha looks fine now. If you have time please see if Ranganatha as expanded by me and User:sidsahu is worth posting on DYK. Thanks.--Nvvchar. 07:42, 16 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the kind inquiry. I am much better than yesterday. Winter is always a problem for me at my age. On Ranganatha, that is exactly what I thought and before nominating sought your advice. I hope sidsahu will be able to move it. By the way Ananta Chaturdashi could be expanded. The present article has absolutely no references. Hence, expanding by 2x should be eligible for DYK. What is your view?

Fine. Can we not fit a cropped image in the hook after deer, that is in the infobox? I have cropped it and removed the text part of it in Urdu.--Nvvchar. 16:19, 16 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Will you have a look at this Vaikuntha Chaturdashi? It is due for posting on DYK tomorrow. What about Anant Chaturdashi?--Nvvchar. 11:19, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I had suggested a slightly modified Alt hook modifying your earlier hook. But that has not been adopted. You have made a request and I hope the concerned administrator will make the change.

The above may need an alt Hook as per the reviewer. You may like suggest. You may like to add and edit this Varahanatha Temple (Jajpur).--Nvvchar. 10:19, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please this reference [1] where it is stated in one of book clippet that "It is thus evident that Varahanatha had already attained celebrity in the first half of the ninth century A.D. As such construction of the original temple of Yajna-Varaha at Jajpur may be ascribed to the Bhaumakara period. However, the existence ..." There are such clippets where it is said that the Yagna Varaha Temple is different from the Varahanatha Temple. Hence, merging the two may not be appropriate. However I have expanded the article. I have also expanded the article on Kankalamurti--Nvvchar. 10:09, 9 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for nominating Kankalamurti. Hook is good. I have started working on Panchakanya. Are these sources acceptable [2],[3] and [4]

[5]. I will also do Ashtabharya. Both are very interesting subjects which the inernational community should read about.--Nvvchar. 16:44, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the flood oof references. I will not use Boloji references though it has been used in Ahalya article. The image posted in Kankalamurti appears dull. Shall I post the other colour picture?--Nvvchar. 17:32, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Still, I have been able to put together seven articles here User:Nvvchar/Bharya. For Bhadra and Laksana I could barely manage to find text. May be with your vast knowledge of Hinduism you would be able to find more on each for these articles. We could even do Satyabhama if we could find enough text. The present article has only one reference, which is also a dead link. One issue which you would be able to solve is in respect of imgs of Mitravinda, Bhadra, Naganjiti and Laksana.

Peer Review Request

Hello, If possible, please do a review of the article on Mahavira. I have listed it for review at Wikipedia:Peer_review/Mahavira/archive1. No one has replied there for, like a week and it may get archived without receiving a review at all. So any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.
