[edit] Category:Religious leaders

The current organization there is abit muddled, and needs some discussing how to deal with. A general proposal for cleaning it up is posted at Category talk:Religious leaders#Organization proposal, and more input would be great. It doesn't address the issue of Religious leaders/religious workers/religious figures, but that is another issue that exists. Badbilltucker 22:08, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia Day Awards

Hello, all. It was initially my hope to try to have this done as part of Esperanza's proposal for an appreciation week to end on Wikipedia Day, January 15. However, several people have once again proposed the entirety of Esperanza for deletion, so that might not work. It was the intention of the Appreciation Week proposal to set aside a given time when the various individuals who have made significant, valuable contributions to the encyclopedia would be recognized and honored. I believe that, with some effort, this could still be done. My proposal is to, with luck, try to organize the various WikiProjects and other entities of wikipedia to take part in a larger celebrartion of its contributors to take place in January, probably beginning January 15, 2007. I have created yet another new subpage for myself (a weakness of mine, I'm afraid) at User talk:Badbilltucker/Appreciation Week where I would greatly appreciate any indications from the members of this project as to whether and how they might be willing and/or able to assist in recognizing the contributions of our editors. Thank you for your attention. Badbilltucker 18:39, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] History of Shaivism

I'm starting work on the "History of" article - there's a lot of information there that might better belong on "Shaivism" proper. I don't want to just wipe it out, I want to move it to someplace where it can be found and used. I'm going to very carefully move sentences and paragraphs (with the names of the original contributors, best as I can) to here. WikiTypically, there are very few attributions but I'll be sure to move them too. Please harvest.

I am now working to upgrade Shiva so coordination between those articles would be helpful to both. Buddhipriya 00:32, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Red Links

"Saivam" especially. Change title? Redirect? ~ Otterpops 18:41, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

The current page is Shaivism, as the romanization of "Shiva" is being used widely across articles. See comment I just placed regarding this on Talk:History_of_Shaivism#Normalization_of_romanizations_across_articles Buddhipriya 00:31, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
