Sir i want to move this page Ganges to Ganga. but i am not able to do it, will you please help me for doing this!Zindahtohpyalabharde (talk) 11:44, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

The common name in English is Ganges, and this is the English Wikipedia, so no, I won't. Dāsānudāsa (talk) 11:45, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

but sir, this river's real name in english and hindi both is Ganga not ganges. because of this "ganges" word many foreigners/non-indians who read this article, misunderstood its name as ganges. and sir, we could put "ganges" as its secondary name in the first line of article, so that "ganges" will also be there, but ganges should be the secondary name and primary should be "ganga".so this article's name would be ganga and first would be like, "Ganga (/ˈɡʌŋɡə/ GUNG-gə, Hindustani: [ˈɡəŋɡaː]) or The Ganges (/ˈɡændʒiːz/ GAN-jeez) " Please consider my request, Hare krishna Zindahtohpyalabharde (talk) 11:51, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

and sir according to this common name in English, most common name should be used, so sir, whether it is hindi or english, "ganga" is more often used as compared to "ganges". because population india has most number of english speaking people, even in southern india where hindi is not commonly used, this river is called "ganga" not ganges sir. please consider my request, hare krishna Zindahtohpyalabharde (talk) 11:55, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

There's no “misunderst[anding] its name as Ganges” – its name is Ganges for the vast majority of English speakers outside India. I take your point that India has hundreds of millions of English speakers, but in terms of native English speakers (ie as a first language) its dwarfed by the US, UK, etc.

Anyway, this isn't the right place for this discussion. If you open a discussion on Talk:Ganges, or a move request, that's the way to go about making your case for a move. Dāsānudāsa (talk) 12:17, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

please join the discussion on Talk:Ganges, i am a new user i dont know the procedure, i have put a section in the Talk:Ganges, but no one has come for discussion, can you please help me, how can i proceed with my requestZindahtohpyalabharde (talk) 12:49, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

Pongal (Festivel)

Please look at this page Pongal (festival). Persistent edit war. The article belongs to Hinduism project. It is against the wikipidea policies. Just moderate the page.

Statue of Unity revert

I take this revert by you as a mistake, as I assume you might not be aware that you were reverting the consensus version. You are free to join the talk page and address the issues raised on Talk:Statue of Unity#POV pushing and copyvio. The content you restored is nothing more than mere politically motivated reactions (see WP:SOAP). AnM2002 (talk) 08:05, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

In what way is it the consensus version? Looking at the page history, it seems like you're trying to revert a version of 5 August while the expanded version, with more reactions, dates to May and stood for three months before you decided you didn't like it. Or am I reading it wrong? Dāsānudāsa (talk) 08:18, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

After the revert, the talk page discussion took place where problems with this edit were highlighted and multiple editors agreed with the problems. Before the resumption of the recent edit war which was started by the same person who added the content in the first place, the version (without his content) existed for nearly 2 months. That is how the "consensus version" is the one without the new content. AnM2002 (talk) 08:27, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

Please outline, using the manual of style, how and why that is a relevant fact to including in the lead sentence of his article? Dāsānudāsa (talk) 08:11, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

There is no identity of king Hemu on the lead sentence. Next sentences mention invaders Mughals, Afghans etc. but you object to mentioning Hemu a Hindu native king. Why you want to hide truthful history? The way you want first sentence, a reader may think that Hemu may have been a Mughal or Afghan king as well. You don't want to mention his caste, his father's name, place of his birth, date of his birth etc, which were once mentioned on the page with references. Today all information is gone. Why don't you remove the page instead of creating confusion in readers minds. 59.91.110.21 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 14:15, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

Why don't you write "Indian", which is what the MoS says it should include (nationality, not ethnicity, religion, caste, etc.). Dāsānudāsa (talk) 18:19, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

DRV

Please explain why you skipped Step 5 of Wikipedia:Deletion review#Steps to list a new deletion review for Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gour Govinda Swami? Venkat TL (talk) 06:31, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

Because it's the first time I've done it and I messed it up. Apparently I should have approached the closer before I even requested a review, and now it's stuck in some weird limbo where no one knows what to do with it. Pretty sure it's just going to stay deleted now. Dāsānudāsa (talk) 07:37, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

OK, so it's been restored to draft space. Are you opposed to that? Dāsānudāsa (talk) 08:53, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

No, not opposed to it. Only opposed to it in mainspace without asserting any notability. --Venkat TL (talk) 19:08, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

Sivarama Swami

Hi there Dāsānudāsa, I just closed the AfD on Sivarama Swami. Just stopping by to offer that if you'd ever like the material from the former article moved into userspace (or draftspace) so you can continue to work on it, just let me know and I'll happily oblige. I suppose I'll include a note of caution that I rarely see these post-AfD draftifications lead to an article that returns to mainspace -- and so they can be a bit of a timesink for those involved. But I sense you know the article's topic much better than I, so you may have a better sense of what sources can be found. All the best, Ajpolino (talk) 00:12, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

Suhotra Swami

Suhotra Swami wiki article says he was twice suspended. I could not find out why. Do you by any chance know? Its ok if you dont know, I was just curious as the article skipped such an important detail. Venkat TL (talk) 13:48, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

If it's the guy I'm thinking of, he broke his vows of celibacy and went back to being plain old Suhotra Das. Not an easy thing, being a sannyasi... Dāsānudāsa (talk) 10:43, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

Gaudiya Vaishnavism is not a religion name. It is a community of Hinduism. know more about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaudiya_Vaishnavism

Well, most people would agree, but KK Swami's param-guru, Prabhupada, was adamant they aren't Hindus, so it seems more appropriate to leave the specific sect here. Dāsānudāsa (talk) 18:36, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

Edit change request on the article- Hindu mythological wars

There are no sources which support the claim Of Arjuna being a Atimaharathi. He never displayed enough skills to be considered as a Atimaharathi As the page suggests 1 Atimaharathi= 12 maharathis. But arjun has never fought 12 maharathis at the same time In fact There were barely 6 maharathis on the kaurava side according to this article. So I don't understand why He is being portrayed as an Atimaharathi. In most sources he is considered equal to Karna and by that logic should be considered a Maharathi. He is martially adept and equal to Arjuna as a warrior, a gifted speaker who embeds provocative insults for his opponents in front of an audience. Edit:-2- Arjuna only possesed brahmashirshaastra and pasupatastra. The vaishnavastra and brahmandastra claim must be supported by sources, or else it's all bogus. Can someone provide accurate sources or at least remove these unwanted claims. I'm leaving this page here because there was no response on the article s talk page henct I edited it here, please kindly look into my edit suggestions. Thank you for your consideration !

Not my area of expertise, really – I had to read the article to see what Atimaharathi means, but you're right in that I can't find any sources describing him as such. I'll reply further on the article talk page Dāsānudāsa (talk) 15:51, 30 June 2022 (UTC)

About the article about dyaus.

Hey there.I recently deleted a part of the article where it was mentioned that dyaus raped his own daughter. I researched about the source you mentioned and in that book,a shloka was mentioned.When i searched about it,it was written that. "When (the worshipper) offers an oblation to his great and illustrious protector, the grasping (rākṣas), recognizing you, Agni, retires; but Agni, the archer, sends after him a blazing arrow from his dreadful bow, and the god bestows light upon his own daughter (the dawn).”

Now could you please throw some light on the last line and tell how it says that he raped his own daughter?(This translation is from the same author whose source you are mentioning) Your source says that it's mentioned vaguely that dyaus did that.So what's the need of including this in the article Also could you please give other sources for rigveda 1.71.5 ?Because i can't find it on the internet except in the source you've given Thank you Anonymous699610 (talk) 12:08, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

Hi, it's on p50 of the source cited (The Rigveda: The Earliest Religious Poetry of India, Volume 1, by Stephanie W. Jamison and Joel P. Brereton). It is "obliquely but vividly referred to a few times in the Rgveda (I.71.5, 8; X.61.5–7) and told more clearly in Vedic prose (though with Prajāpati substituting for Heaven)–namely the rape of his own daughter."

I'm not familiar with the primary source (that part of the Rigveda itself) but secondary and tertiary sources are to be preferred, per WP:OR. Dāsānudāsa (talk) 12:18, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

hello again.Yes, as you've said about p50 of the book,i have read that,i am not challenging you for misquoting the text in the book,i am challenging the source itself.I couldn't find any shloka in rigveda that mentions about the rape by dyaus.But indeed i have seen other sources Like of international journal of sanskrit research. There's an article by Milorad Ivankovic about that."The vedic stellar saga of 3059 BCE",Pg no.1 mentions that he was enomared by his daughter,that doesn't mean he raped her.You said that secondary and tertiary sources are to be preferred.Well,we have contradicting secondary and tertiary sources.What about that?Also please give some credible source for those shlokas in rigveda because I'm still not able to find it

Thank you Anonymous699610 (talk) 17:52, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

I wouldn't be opposed to changing it to something like "According to Jamison and Brereton (2014), Dyauṣ is also known for the rape of his own daughter..." if it's not a majority view. Dāsānudāsa (talk) 09:12, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

I would be pleased if you do that as these are the opinions that are made by them according to their translation.There are many alternate translation where i didn't find the 'rape' word.

So it would be nice if you do that

Note about 3RR

Note that for WP:3RR purposes, reverts are counted over a 24-hour period and not per "calendar day" (which, in any case would depend on the time-zone). So the IP was at 6-reverts rather than 3, when you posted this comment. Pointing this technicality out mainly so that you take care not to fall afoul of 3RR yourself when dealing with such users. Cheers. Abecedare (talk) 15:34, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

Chaitanya Mahaprabhu being mentioned in Bhavishya Purana

@Dāsānudāsa I had provided reference from the Bhavishya Purana directly with exact Sanskrit Slokas and translations with page numbers regarding Chaitanya Mahaprabhu being mentioned with name of his parents and also place of birth. Still my content was removed without proper reasoning. Blaming me of being sectarian. If Krishna is mentioned in Vishnu Purana we agree he is incarnation of Vishnu as per the Vishnu Purana. And similarly Chaitanya is clearly mentioned as incarnation of Vishnu as per the Bhavishya Purana, I mentioned the same. What is being secterian in that? If Chaitanya is Vishnu according to the Bhavishya Purana then what's wrong in accepting the facts?

Bhavishya Purana, Pratisargaparvan, Part 4, Chapter 10. This entire chapter is on Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.

You will be surprised that not once but countless times Chaitanya is mentioned in this purana as avatar of Vishnu.

Exact Sanskrit Slokas: https://www.wisdomlib.org/hinduism/book/bhavishya-purana-sanskrit/d/doc1271320.html

Read any Bhavishya Purana by any authentic publisher, the chapter number I have given.

For example: Publisher: Gita Press

Bhavishya Purana, Book Page: 352 onwards. (Archive Link Page: 362 onwards) Link: https://archive.org/details/bhavishya-puran-gita-press-gorakhpur/page/n362/mode/1up

What can I do more to convience you than share the exact Sanskrit slokas directly from the Purana itself. Request you to pls guide me on this. Siddheshmane900 (talk) 08:15, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi, please read WP:PSTS. The Bhavishya Purana is a primary source, whereas Wikipedia articles should be based primarily on reliable secondary sources, such as the cited encyclopaedia. Also, the parts of the Bhavishya Purana that mention Sri Chaitanya were clearly (re)written after his advent; ditto the parts that reference Mohammed and Christianity. Historians and linguists consider these parts to date from the 18th or even 19th century AD. Dāsānudāsa (talk) 16:48, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

@Dāsānudāsa Thankyou for a much convincing reply. I respect your reply which sounds much better than others. There is no doubt a high possibility that these parts of the Purana may have been written after his advent, however this is not the point. Him being mentioned was the point. What you say would also apply to other incarnations of Vishnu which Puranas mention. Most incarnations of Vishnu mentioned in Puranas like Buddha or even Rama and Krishna were written after their advents. Thankyou once again. Siddheshmane900 (talk) 07:35, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

That's a fair point. But from a Wikipedia perspective, what really matters are secondary (and tertiary sources), which the Gita Press BVS isn't. Cheers, Dāsānudāsa (talk) 09:02, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

IAST

May I ask as to why you hate ((IAST3)) template? You have reverted at least five of my edits where I have used the template. Rau6590 (talk) 04:28, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

About editing .

why you reverted and always target on one who edit good faith about Lord vishnu and vaishnavism, Your name says vishnu devotee, but you always opposite on vishnu related articles. I edited as per given source link based on Parabrahman, it refers only to God Narayana (vishnu ) even Narayana wiki page, this same sentence mentioned in page article, check it and if necessary then delete inside vaishnavism description pages. I kindly request to you plz edit as previously. In wikipedia i edit only good edit as per given source , plz dont target when i edit.

@Dāsānudāsa God devotee (talk) 09:59, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

My name translates to "servant of the servant". It doesn't mention Vishnu. Everything I have reverted has been because you didn't provide any sources, inserted your own point of view into the article, or otherwise didn't improve it.

I drum over and over until justice , not only statue but also more info on shiva.

Think urself why so much info on shiva main top info, even there is no link source.

There is no connection of medicine to shiva.

Remove ,

Master of Poison and medicine,

This info only realted to God Dhanvantari, not for shiva, even shiva wiki page didnt mentioned single word in entire article. Atleast remove unnecessary extra top info on shiva, otherwise add related to vishnu.

@Dāsānudāsa Jaranthadss (talk) 13:41, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

Who cares? You're a Vaishnava (I assume). So why are you so obsessed with Shiva? It's not a competition. Dāsānudāsa (talk) 13:52, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
