It is almost two weeks since this nomination was submitted and no QPQ has been provided. The nominator has more than five DYK credits, therefore QPQ is required. Please take care of this within one week. Thank you. Flibirigit (talk) 00:53, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

New enough GA. QPQ provided. Must assume good faith on the offline book source, but all the elements are in the proper places. Earwig turns up no problems. This is good to go. Raymie (t • c) 06:53, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Opening statement[edit]

Hello, and come what may from this review, thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. During the review, I may make copyedits, which I will limit to spelling correction and minor changes to punctuation (removal of double spaces and such). I will only make substantive edits that change the flow and structure of the prose if I previously suggested and it is necessary. The Nominator(s) should understand that I am a grammar pedant, and I will nitpick in the interest of prose quality. For responding to my comments, please use Done, Fixed, Added, Not done, Doing..., or Removed, followed by any comment you'd like to make. I will be crossing out my comments as they are redressed, and only mine. A detailed, section-by-section review will follow. –♠Vami _IV†♠ 22:28, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Prose[edit]

~~All three paragraphs of the lead start with the title. To mitigate this, I suggest merging the second and third sentences, as both discuss the book's reception.~~

Done --Gazal world (talk) 07:08, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

~~Mesmerism is a pseudoscience.~~

@Vami IV: What can we do here ? Please guide me. --Gazal world (talk) 07:08, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

~~I recommend changing the "science" in based on the science of mesmerism to "pseudoscience", or delete it altogether.~~ –♠Vami _IV†♠ 07:21, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Done Removed the word 'science. --Gazal world (talk) 07:48, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Manilal's theological conclusions are that Āryāvarta is the source of all religions; [...] Could you add a few words to clarify that Āryāvarta refers to a historic region of the Indian subcontinent?

Done --Gazal world (talk) 07:08, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

~~The last sentence of the second paragraph of "Methodology" should be moved into "Reception and criticism", and germinated into its own paragraph if material on criticism is abundant enough.~~

Done --Gazal world (talk) 07:08, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Vami_IV. Thanks for your comments. I have addressed all the issues. Please see. --Gazal world (talk) 07:48, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
