Sorry Bakasuprman, what [] does this mean? Wikiproject Hinduism really not active? You are not really active or is it different from article Hinduism? Just curious.

Namaste Bakasuprman. Thanks for your comments on my talk page. I have actually used the term Indian subcontinent before without the intent of being nationalistic (see Roman Urdu and Kashmir). After Zora mentioned it, I could see why the term would be contentious among other editors from South Asia. In my opinion, if we are talking about geography, it is okay to use the term Indian subcontinent whereas if we are referring to the culture or political region, it is probably best to use South Asia. I hope this helps! Alvida, AnupamTalk 05:27, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
The practice of Sati continues till this day..mostly due to religious sanction TerryJ-Ho 11:16, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
Mr.TerryJ-Ho, If, your above statement is intentional, you are doing the worst thing of tarnishing the image of our country. I do not know your back-ground. Hope you will appreciate that sentiments of any person get hurt when his/her nation/religion/societies come under false attack. How would you feel, if so done to you? India has a population of 120,00,00000. I have completed 56 years in this country and sufficiently informed about things going in this country. I have moved in villages regularly and live in Mumbai from birth. I have hardly heard of one or two instance of Sati during my life of 56 yrs. You can't help the people who wants to self immolate. We have rich & poor, educated and un-educated, modern and orthodox, good and bad all kind of people like any other country would have. Sati Pratha came in social practice because of Muslims invaded small kingdoms, killed or captured males, raped and made women folk their wives. Indians mostly were strict vegetarians. Muslims are non-veg. The women preferred death over being raped or marrying for the second time against Hindu culture and customs. The pride of woman-hood and un-civilised behaviour of Muslims are the route cause of this deprecative social system. Though people like me who borned later are also full of wounds of the root cause of Muslims behaviour. Pl. don't make fun of our pitiable social system which do not exist anymore from more than 5 decades. You shall make yourself and your society a shame for such remarks. Can you show me a single evidence that the system of Sati exist and the roots are our religion? Where did you get this information from? You are a shame Mr.TerryJ-Ho. God will not forgive you for such in-human behaviour. Swadhyayee 14:16, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

There are so many articles to create and sometimes I feel like my life is a little too short to wait for tomorrow...lol. :-P But kudos to you for keeping tabs on what's happening everywhere on a regular basis. Take care man.Antorjal
Thanks Bakasuprman. I am not sure whether you checked edit of my removal of two paras which I feel are grossly improper and worsen the article. This was reverted by HeBhagawan. He sees that by hook or crook the article remain his way and I surprise why Priyanath support him in his non-sense inclusions. The article is free of any axis. I commented that there is 1) way of preaching and 2) way of life. This article should have way of preaching as axis. For way of life, the article must be seperate. Somehow, they are not open to correction.
Will you pl. see my edits of 7-11-06 and reversal by HeBhagawan and change it, if you too find it ir-relevant?
They need a clearly worded comments. swadhyayee 02:31, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks Baka for your comments on Hinduism talk page but I could not understand whether you support my view that caste system being not a religious doctrine should not be detailed which is likely to invite controversies and provide a tool for anti-Hindus. My ref. is obsevance and non-observance of castes, Dalits, discrimination, govt. policies etc. having included in Hinduism.
Can you clearly word your views.

Hi. It's really surprising how far someone would go to spread hatred given access to an open source encyclopedia. Green23 and 216.254.121.169 are proven sockpuppets (here) and Saavak123 has been banned for being a sockpuppet (here). All three being the same person all the time. Thanks for your support on this. I appreciate it a lot. Freedom skies 03:39, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for taking the time to draft a version of the section on caste. Now that we have several different versions, I hope it will be easier for people to decide which one they like best. Namah Shivaaya. HeBhagawan 04:59, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
Namaste Bakaman. I hope you are doing well. Have you heard anything about the status of Saare Jahan Se Achcha lately? I remember you had asked me to intervene on the talk page and I just wanted to know how that went. Let me know if you hear anything. Thanks! AnupamTalk 04:59, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
Hey Bakaman, thanks a lot for your support to the RFA..:) I will try to have a look at the article for DYK but these days my damn alterego is taking too much time and has already got more edits than me!!

Hi Bakaman, some users are trying to remove any mention of Vedic Metal from Wikipedia. Vedic metal was an article which was Afded twice and got deleted twice, mainly because of disinterest from concerned Wikipedians. Currently, it is a sub-section of the article Folk metal and some users are trying to remove it from there as well. Please check these diffs - diff1, diff2. Apart from that, check out the Talk:Folk metal. I think, as Indians and Hindus, we must not let Indophobes remove Indian material.
Please put this article in your watchlist. It is full of junk pseudoscience lifted off of Pakistani Nationalist Websites and Dalitstan (of all places) and is a potential POV fork of Demographics of India (I removed the Dalitstan and Pakistani Nationalist crap but you know the revert-warriors).I think this article should be AfD'ed.Hkelkar 09:28, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Bakaman, OIT is proving continuous culture/religion from at least 4000 BC to present time in India. That makes Hinduism oldest in the world. OIT also makes a strong case for PIE being in India or close. This position can be presented and argued easily (T, E and K have put together good arguments). It is not accepted by mainstream yet but if it is presented properly it will be soon. We have to keep working on this and take baby steps. PIE = Sanskrit can not be argued easily, Sanskrit first from PIE can be argued. Movement you bring in religion or PVC with culture before last ice age (Frawley’s assertion in some cases) it will be create allegation of propoganda. If you make Hindu statements in OIT, then people will see this as a religious position and ridicule it. So who looses in this case.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sbhushan (talk • contribs) .
- Look, the best thing that can happen with the OIT page is if people who have ridiculed the theory as religious propaganda in the past can finally see it for the well-backed and possible true theory which it is. I've been through Frawley's essays as well as Knapp's and used them to build the OIT page, but the truth is there are gaping holes there and they are not supported well enough. I'm happy to blank those sections as long as I can fill it in with other evidence. By the way, saying PIE = Sanskrit is something people categorize with propaganda, I'll stay away from it. It seems clear that the Vedas were written after split of PIE to P-Anatolian and PII, otherwise lots of evidence falls into disarray. Nobleeagle [TALK] [C] 05:05, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

- Oh yes, actually the importance ratings were a bit confusing to me. I do feel they are subjective and there must be some more guidelines to help assessors. I thought, Durga Puja is just a festival, so maybe not Top importance, but yeah, your reasoning is more correct, and I'll remember that in my next assessments. --NRS | T/M\B 06:28, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi, I assume that you are talking about me reassessing the importance to High. I donot question the importance of ISKCON, as I myself is a part of the volunteer group and has volunteered for many events in Seattle. However, I question the importance to Top, as we want to keep the most important topics to Hinduism in that, and if we keep adding sects it will open a pandora's box and every major sect (there are hundreds) will try to get it classified to top. Thus, I moved it to high. I hope you understand.

Google hits must not be taken as a yardstick in Asian related AfD's. Newspapers of Vernacular Languages may have millions of readership. For example, in India every state has its own language. There are more than 20 widely speaking native languages in India. But the news reports from the newspapers of such languages are not available in google search.Take the case of Malayala Manorama Newspaper. Currently this Malayalam language newspaper has a readership of over 9 million, with a circulation base of over 1.4 million copies according to Audit Beureu of Circulations. Manorama is one of the India's largest selling and most widely read news paper. There are more than 50 such newspapers in India. News reports from such dailies are not available in google eventhough it have millions of readership. But news reports from English dailies with 1000 or 2000 copies are available in google search. It is really misleading...Isn't it...? In this context of notability tests based on google hits may be a worthless, foolish effort. In such circumstances we must consider the words of native wikipedians with more importance. May I know ur valuable opinion ……?

Hi, can you join me in nominating Tirupathy Venkateshwara Temple for the colloboration of the week. It is a shame that such an important article is still not near the FA-category.
[here] Balajiviswanathan 07:39, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
It seems to me that this entire concept of Ayyavazhi is some big hoax in WP history. I ran a news search on all the major Tamilnadu centric newspapers and not even a single result came. I ran a search on the book, "Religion and Subaltern Agency" and not a single reference on any non-WP caching site. There is some big mischief going on. We have got to collect people knowledgeable in Tamil Nadu to group and verify their thin claims and if no major claim is found, we have to put all teh articles for speedy delete.

Hi Baka, I came across an article - Decline of Buddhism in India. It seems to me a very biased and POV-article. There hardly seem to any references at all. And what's that about this views and that views. Do all Indian Buddhists pertain to the view provided in the article ? I seriously doubt it. And the so-called Hindutva view is shared by many other neutral scholars as well. There do not seem to any citations as well. Actually, I have read many neutral articles on this topic and almost everywhere, it agrees with the "Hindutva" view. And that's why I am a little concerned that this article may not be NPOV. You may take a look at it. Bye, keep rockin' --NRS | T/M\B 13:43, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

You voted for Tirupathi Venkateshwara Temple, this week's Indian Collaboration of the Week. Please come and help it become a featured-standard article. - Aksi_great (talk) 17:42, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
In my opinion inserting vernacular scripts in an english language encyclopedia is unnecessary. The ongoing arguments over this in such numerous articles is a non-prodctive exercise. There are a number of editors wasting their time and others' indulging in tit for tat activities and edit wars over which script to add to which article. I don't want to waste my time over this.

Hi, just wanted to find out if I did something wrong in the way I noted that this article and Kamla Bhatt were listed in India-related deletions. I noticed you re-noted this on these articles, so I figured I might have left a step out or something. Darkspots 02:31, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

- Exactly the phrase I was going to use. Regarding our new buddy, I think ed.whatever is a little too clumsy to be a sockpuppet--look at how many edits in his contribs before he actually got an AfD going.
