[edit] February 2008

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Krishna, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. This is especially important when dealing with biographies of living people, but applies to all Wikipedia articles. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are already familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add your reference to the article. Thank you. In addition to your edits being unsourced, they are also irrelevant to that article. Please discuss your changes on the article's talk page and do not edit-war.

While I trust that your edits are well-intentioned, they are inappropriate for the particular article for reasons listed above. That is the reason they were also reverted by User:GourangaUK earlier. Please read the pages linked above to learn more about wikipedia's content policies. If you have any questions feel free to contact me or any other experienced editor on my/their talk page or dicuss your proposed edits on the article talk-page.
PS: It is customary to leave new messages at the bottom of a talk page rather than the top. Cheers. Abecedare (talk) 07:44, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Romance

It's already cited in the Bhagavatam (regional languages) that the gopis wanted to have Krishna as their husband. Krishna fulfilled their desire. There is nothing wrong in posting facts that are verifiable and are sourced. It is not provoking. People those who do not know can ask any Vasihnav and he/she will agree with the fact. --Radha2008 (talk) 07:47, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Krishna. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Abecedare (talk) 07:57, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright violation from Exotic India

Please do not add copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Ras Lila (dance). For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

[edit] Please vote

Are you still around? You were contributing to articles that are in the scope of the new project WP:KRISHNA, I thought you may want to check the proposal of merger and cast your vote in relation of the additional section to article Krishna. Thanks. --Wikidās-ॐ 14:41, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Scope, update and voting
Whats new at Krishna's project
Wikipedia:WikiProject Krishnaism - whats new and happening!
Please note the results of the vote on the proposal of merging new article on early worship of Krishna Vasudeva to the main article dedicated to the Hindu deity Krishna.
  • Krishna Vasudeva may have been worshiped in 4 century BC as a monotheistic deity.
  • This article is to be incorporated in a separate section of Krishna article.
  • Also, if you are ready to help with editing and assessment of the scope, please see the project page, and add your name to the list of participants.
More on the topic.
How will it be defined.

While the name of the project is WikiProject Krishnaism in common language many seems to prefer a wider term "Vaishnavism", which however appeared to relate to Vishnu. Krishnaism is more of an academic term. On the other hand even one of the first Indologists to use the term, Albrecht Weber was to consider that that the essence of Krishnaism, bhakti or the principle of "God is love", was pre-Christian. There were and are many traditions where Krishna is worshiped and His names revered.

There was a discussion (and a heated one) on the scope of the project and the term here. Currently the scope is quite wide and aims at improving articles related to Radha-Krishna and associated traditions where they are worshiped: Manipuri Vaishnavas, Bhagavata, Gaudiya Vaishnava, Nimbarka sampradaya, Swaminarayana sampradaya, Vallabha sampradaya; If you see a need to widen or restrict the scope please voice your opinion - it is wanted!

Just leave a few words here.
