[edit] copyvios
The three massive articles you created, being translations of the Bhagavad Gita have all been deleted. The reason is not just that they were copyright violations but, more importantly, they are not encyclopedic - they are source material which does not belong here. Here you should be discussing the relative merits of these translations in the Bhagavad Gita article and providing external links to the translations.
But please feel free to keep contributing encyclopedic material. -- RHaworth 07:16, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
Same goes for Devi gita.
The edit you did to Talk:Mahabharata is what we call vandalism - you threw out the existing content of the page without any regard to its usefulness. A Talk: page is specifically there for discussion. And I am assuming your version was another copyright violation.
Whilst we always welcome contributions, please take time to study what is already here, make sure what you add is not aleady covered and do not simply post quotations.
I am assuming that Special:Contributions/141.156.144.99 are your work. -- RHaworth 08:08, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
