puja[edit]

the text appears to be from a "Venkateshwara [1][2] puja" (30.14)[3]. It is an invocation of surya, indu, agni and vayu. I believe that mukhaadindsh is a mistake for mukhaadindush, so that it appears that your text was directly copy-pasted from the link above (which has the same mistake). The Atharvaveda has things like mukhaad agnir ajaayata, but the precise text does not seem to have a Vedic precedent. regards, dab (ᛏ) 09:19, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

well, in that case my reply is that my Indological horizon is really just the Vedic texts, and while the verse appears closely based on mantras, it is not directly taken from a Vedic mantra for all I can tell. Your next step will have to be to find references on the texts "Sri VenkaTeshvara SuprabhAtam and Sri VenkaTeshvara aShTottara" named on the page, whatever those may be, to at least establish which of the two it is taken from. regards, dab (ᛏ) 09:00, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ladakh[edit]

The refs are better. But I have one question. Why are the notes in a foreign script? As this is the English language wikipedia, I'm curious about this. Does it say this is okay in the FA criteria or are there articles already FA that use this style? Rlevse 17:37, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WP India[edit]

Hi Deeptrivia, can you please have a look at this? And then this? Since you are among the prolific editors of HOI articles, do you think we should change the template to {{WP India}} in the history related articles? The new template is much better -- Lost^(talk) 17:08, 18 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is to let you know the Featured Picture you uploaded and/or nominated Image:Indischer version3.jpg is scheduled to be Picture of the day on October 6, 2006, when it will be featured on the Main Page. Congratulations!

Just so you know, not all steps were taken when this image was promoted, otherwise it would have been POTD some time ago. Better late than never, anyway. ;) howch e ng {chat} 17:31, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi[edit]

Thanks for welcoming me to History of India. I will contribute as many quality articles as I can but I am impressed with the effort my fellow Indians have put in. Not for any profit, but a love of the Motherland, and a desire to spread knowledge has prompted so many wonderful articles! However, we must continue to keep up the work, since coverage on historical topics needs to be broadened IMO. By the way, I am a molecular biologist by profession, and an Indologist by passion... so that's why I don't write technical articles for wikipedia. Also there are many people who can write on those things but (from what I have seen), only a handful of regular contributors to HOI. Have a great great day and thanks again for welcoming me. Cheers. --Antorjal 14:06, 29 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

2nd October[edit]

Hi, remember 11th september, when you and I both requested for including the start of Gandhi Ji's Satyagrah Movement on the talk page of the main page. The editors/ admins (whosoever is responsible) did not include it despite several requests. Tomorrow is his b'day, 2nd October. At least this ought to go there on the main page. I do not know if they will include it themselves or we will just keep on requesting and nothing will happen. Do you know if an admin can help us in that. As a matter of fact, I was looking on the main page today and there was the mention that Pele, played the last football match today (or something like that). If start of Satyagrah can be conveniently ignored and Pele's last game can be added, all I can see is BIAS. Nevertheless, we will try for 2nd October. This was just to remind you. Thanks. --APandey 18:07, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi...[edit]

Hi... How are you doing? I've been following your contributions closely and you're doing a really good job... of course you don't need me to tell you that. :). Anyways, I downloaded the file you created with the districts of West Bengal and I modified it. in svg using Inkscape. Unfortunately, the file works fine with software but doesn't format correctly on the page itself - [4]. So I've created an exported png bitmap file too and I'm using that one - [5]. I am at wit's end, so I'd love it if you could take a look sometime... until then I guess there is a png file to get the article through to the FAC stage. Take care. Respects. --Antorjal 14:29, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that w/o his participation and political activism (during the making of the movie), France would not have increased dramatically the pensions of its WWII African soldiers.

Dont' add "dispute" notes to pages related to Pakistan[edit]

I've removed that little note from this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diran

Firstly, it's not in Kashmir (what Indian POV is, is a different issue, it never was a part of Kashmir).

Secondly if there is no such note on all pages for Indian-held Kashmir, then it shouldn't be on any pages of Pakistan either. So before you add these Indian-POV notes on Pakistan related pages, do add similar dispute notes on pages related to Srinagar and Dal Lake etc that say that the region is disputed and Pakistan also lays claim to Kashmir (or that it should be resolved according to the Indian promise of plebiscite, that India never allowed to be held). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.101.178.20 (talk • contribs)
