Thank you for your message in my user page. I think it now seems faithful to the message in the source. All I was trying to point out was to represent the message in source material. It was not any POV. --Aadal 11:31, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

I may not agree with your "well known" qualifier, but I agree with you about the resulting "verify war". Anyways, If you can add some third party reference for the "2000" year claim, it would improve the credibility of the article. Praveen 13:18, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Your new references look good. But, I meant, by 'third party', research papers published in a reputable journal or books written by outsiders. Anyways, if can not find them forget it. No problem. Praveen 14:39, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Porches

Do you know of any photos of an Indian temple porch? Sincerely, --Mattisse 20:48, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

This time I was looking at the Porch article and noticed no examples or recognition of other than Western/Euopean architecture. When I come across that, I always stick a photo (plus description if I can) of an Indian example. Especially since porches are mentioned so much in temple articles, I think the article Porch should have Indian examples. I put a No World View tag on the article! But I could not find a photo of a porch. Sincerely, --Mattisse 22:27, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Rock-cut

I have been working on my Indian rock-cut architecture article but the issue I can't seem to clarify is the word describing the difference between a monolithic excavated temple (like Ellora cave 16) and a monolithic temple carved from a monolith rock outcropping like Pancha Rathas. Is there a word that distinguishes them? Sincerely, --Mattisse 00:16, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

But what about carved outcropping? --Mattisse 01:17, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

File:Shimoga Thirpuranthakeshwara temple.JPG

The professor you quoted does not seem to be addressing my concerns. Most rock-cut temples were made by either enlarging an existing cave or carving one into a hillside. Pancha Rathas was sticking out of the hill (outcropping) and so was carved from the outside in, as were the bas-reliefs. The only structural temple there is the Shore Temple. Ellora cave 16 was excavated from the top down. I'll think about it more.

Thanks for the porch. I'll stick it in the article. It's a porch to a mandapa, right?

And I answered your email. Sincerely, --Mattisse 17:47, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

But I don't think every article should be a feature article. I made those articles for myself and others who just want a quick explanation of a term without lengthy reading. Some of them could be I guess. But if they were too long I wouldn't read them myself. Your friend, --Mattisse 18:51, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Most of those are too old for DYK unless we added "substantial changes". Temple tanks of south India -- probably most of the tank pictures I have are south India. I love tanks and water articles. I've done a bunch of rivers, dams, reservoirs, waterfalls etc. Remember the disagreements over what to call Sivasamudram Falls? It was one of the sock puppets {I now know) User:999 who started that and tried to merge my article into an inferior other article. I was very angry at User:BostonMA at the time for taking his side! Now I miss BostonMA. Sincerely, --Mattisse 19:01, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Question?

Are you obsessed??? Is this article Political history of medieval Karnataka really about Kannada? Your ever questioning friend, --Mattisse 01:53, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

I don't know

What is the major point you want to make in the article? One of them seems to be that Kannada, being a local language, is finally working its way up to becoming official during this period. (This is connected to political developments, I know, but I think you have to be specific and connect the dots.) To me that is an interesting point, as in your past articles I did not understand the Kannada issue. Remember when you "accused" me of calling local Kannada speaking people "hillbillies"? Please have mercy on the poor non-Indian reader! --Mattisse 02:03, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Agree!

Maps only go so far for those of us on the other side of the world. There are so many pictures that convey more -- the real beauty and soul of the culture. So many of your pictures are stunning. And apparently I have only seen a few of them! --Mattisse 02:07, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Yes, if the pictures are meaningful in terms of the story.

The Kannada language story is also very interesting, as it encapsulates the many minglings of cultural changes in India. It is a mini story of the whole, but one you can tell clearly. It gives a peek at the underlying complexities of India's history and its remarkable ability to accommodate. To me India is a sleeping giant. It is just weird that a major book store has only three books on India when India is one of the most important countries in the world. India plays its cards very well, I think, keeping a wonderfully low profile in this world of upheaval, and concentrating internally on what is relevant. An India fan, --Mattisse 02:20, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm getting confused!

Your citation was obscure to me and I did not understand it. I will think about how to connect the dots. It has to be simplified somehow, as connections that are obvious to you are not so to the rest of us uninformed people, even those like me who have tried to understand. In time it will become clear and we can work it out. Is someone going to kill you if you don't get this done by the timeline? Sincerely, --Mattisse 02:41, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Kannada

Check this site for second language Kannada speakers: Ethnologue -- Amarrg 06:01, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Kannada

I just came across and read the intro of the Kannada language article and for the first time understood to some degree why Kannada is mentioned so much in your articles and why you are promoting it. To me, it would help to have more context in your articles on very specific regions and time eras etc. as, unless you are writing for a very narrow audience, a reader is not going to grasp the article's purpose other than to describe in detail an obscure issue. The current article, Political history of medieval Karnataka, is not the issue of the evolution of Kannada as an "official" language one of the major points? Sincerely, --Mattisse 13:21, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm just saying that I have been editing your articles for some time now and not until this morning when I read that intro did I get the point. It's sort of like reading a bunch of articles on the US and seeing Ebonics mentioned everywhere like a factoid but nothing else. Do you think a person from Russia would have the background understanding of the social, cultural and political implications of mentioning it? (Bad analogy, but can't think of better one right now.) I'm wondering if Indians are writing these articles to argue among yourself and not to educate and enlighten the rest of us. (Not meaning to sound grumpy, but I have been wondering more and more lately if this is the case.) Sincerely, --Mattisse 14:00, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Another article! Who is going to read all these articles and then try to put the pieces together to get the whole picture, except a few very interested persons who probably already know the subject matter? I am saying that I am only barely getting it now, and this is after going over and over your articles copy editing them, researching and writing sub articles, reading (or trying to read) related articles and reading some (parts of) books. If you think the world has "blinkers" on, then you cannot start out with the equivalent of graduate level electrical engineering. Please don't take my comments as criticism but only an impulsive reaction. You are too smart for the rest of us! Sincerely, --Mattisse 14:12, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Humph!

In fact I need to add one sentence to the empires at the bottom, the Sultanates. They actually gave patronage to Persian, with Kannada and Marathi used only for local matters. Can you imagine, Persian in South India? This is a fact. Many persian words have come into even south Indian languages because of this, especially in north Karnataka, north Andhra Pradesh. This is important from the readers point of view to mention this with a citation. Sure, there may be a fanatic somewhere who cant accept that Persian came into use in Karnataka, but history has to be brought out, patriotism or not. This is why I assert I am not trying to focus on one language, though undoubtedly Kannada is the main language of the region. -Dineshkannambadi

That paragraph is not written for me or the rest of the world. I rest my case! You are hopeless! Suppose I gave you a pile of academic articles on psychology, all properly cited and referenced. Do you think you would understand anything in them? (I doubt it, as it takes work for even a psychologist to do so.) All the articles on psychology in Wikipedia stink because they are either written by overly academic specialists or by pop pseudo psychologists with no academic underpinnings. You are doing a rough equivalent of the former. Signed by a grump, --Mattisse 14:34, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Bias

Societies

Hello Dinesh,
On the lines of Society of the Hoysala Empire, Society of Rashtrakuta empire of Manyakheta, etc, wouldn't it be a good choice to move the article Life in Vijayanagara Empire to Society of Vijayanagara Empire or something? Or is there any specific reason, why it needs to be in the present name?

Ok, thanks. Moved Life in Vijayanagara Empire to Society of Vijayanagara Empire. - KNM ^Talk 02:46, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Also, all these articles need to come under a common category. Would one of these category names Societies of Karnataka or Historical Societies of Karnataka or Societies of Karnataka History sound better? Or do you have any suggestion? Please let me know. Thank you! - KNM ^Talk 01:13, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Reply: {{History of Karnataka}}

If all the major empires are covered in this template, that should be good enough. Among, post-16th Century, I believe Kingdom of Mysore and Unification of Karnataka may be enough. pre-BC things might need another template, as there won't be that much room to accommodate them in this template. Just my thoughts. We can discuss further in template talk page, to have inputs from other users. - KNM ^Talk 02:45, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

That section does need so help, not just images but links to who these people were. I've looked and looked and stuck a few in, but the dates don't exactly match.

And I can't seem to figure anything out. Sincerely, --Mattisse 19:45, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Information matching

No, not yours. I wanted to link some for the Muslim names to articles on them. The articles on these figures have different dates from yours as to when they occupied India as does the internet, so it is very confusing. I feel that when the article moves to the Muslim sections, it is just as important, if not more so, to have links and images. Sincerely, Mattisse 20:52, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

I'd have to examine it again closely but the conqueror rules from 1325 to 1351. The next Muslim guy mentioned rules from 1397 to 1422. But maybe it's not so important what went on in between. The first guy I found several possible links for, none exactly right but settled on one that you need to check to see if it remotely fits. The second muslim guy I think I finally gave up on as the articles on him were widely disparate. It's like it is two different worlds with no connection. Maybe I am being too particular.

Maybe in the third grade you studied them?

I have had a huge crash course in India. A couple years ago a friend wanted me to go with her to Sri Lanka. I couldn't find it in the atlas because I did not even know it was no longer called Ceylon! Does that give you a glimpse of my pathetic state of knowledge regarding that area of the world? Now, of course I am fascinated. But I have a steep learning curve ahead of me. And I already know infinitely more about India (which was practically nothing) now than I did a year ago.

Wittling down Economy

For some reason I have more trouble with this section, probably because I do not know what is, or is not, in the sub article. And also, in the past, I worked on this section quite a bit and find it all interesting. I have looked and looked at the first two paras, and I can't part with any of it, except perhaps wittling down the list of place names.

You probably can tell better in the first two paras, as you know what is in the sub article. --Mattisse 00:26, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
