[edit] The photo on article's page is copyrighted

I found the photo on the internet. You have to order a custom print so I don't think it is in the public domain. This link [1] is where you can order a custom print of it. Mattisse(talk) 14:17, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

I have requested a copyright examination. Mattisse(talk) 15:29, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, Matisse - other editors are also finally noticing all the photo copyright violations on Wikipedia. This one has been replaced with a public domain photo of Badrinath Temple. ॐ Priyanath 19:52, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Changes to article

Feel free to discuss changes that I've made to the article, and my explanation of them. With the recent split of Badrinath into Badrinath (town) and Badrinath temple, there were parts of the temple article that should have stayed in the Badrinath town article. I've moved those back to the Badrinath article. They are: the history and legends about Badrinath and the region around Badrinath. The temple article should be only about the temple, the temple complex and worship in the temple.

In addition, I've added a small section in the Badrinath article about the temple - because Badrinath temple is by far the most significant and visited feature in the town. Any significant feature in a town needs a section in that town's article about that feature. But Badrinath temple is still the main article about the temple. ॐ Priyanath 03:36, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
