Review by thunderboltz^{a.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK}
Had a quick look:

• The image Image:Sankaracharya.jpg seems to have an incorrect license.
• Since he is a Malayali, his name in Malayalam should also be given.
• It might not be necessary to give the pronunciation guide and translation for Advaita Vedanta, Shankara Vijayams, etc.
• Is the meaning of śāstra, scriptures? I think its more on the lines of "science". But ofcouse, I could be wrong.
• Mādhavīya Śaṃkara Vijayaṃ, the Ānandagirīya Śaṃkara Vijayaṃ, the Cidvilāsīya Śaṃkara Vijayaṃ, and the Keraļīya Śaṃkara Vijayaṃ — italise them and if possible, give their meanings alongside.
• Wiki-link all proper nouns.
• He was named Shankara, in honour of Shiva. — what does Shankara mean?
• The distinction between legend and that which is documented must be made more clear. -- thunderboltz^{a.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK}15:11, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

• I'd like some help with the malayali name
• Yes I'll remove those
• The literal meaning is science, but what Shankara meant by it is Scriptures
• All these are proper nouns, of course. I'll italicise them
• Ok
• I was thinking of giving that meaning. I'll do that

Thanks for your comments. I'll do some of it by today. --Babub^{(Talk|Contribs)} 02:15, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

I've added the Malayalam text. Also select a different license for the picture, unless of course, you own the site whose link you have provided as the source.-- thunderboltz^{a.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK}09:35, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Done with the pic. What do you think about Image:Sankara-big.jpg?--Babub^{(Talk|Contribs)} 14:45, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

I've changed the picture and done some changes as per the above suggestions. Please give your suggestions/ comments if any.--Babub^{(Talk|Contribs)} 15:07, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
