  • It is almost two weeks since this nomination was submitted and no QPQ has been provided. The nominator has more than five DYK credits, therefore QPQ is required. Please take care of this within one week. Thank you. Flibirigit (talk) 00:53, 5 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

New enough GA. QPQ provided. Must assume good faith on the offline book source, but all the elements are in the proper places. Earwig turns up no problems. This is good to go. Raymie (tc) 06:53, 11 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Copy edit request edit

@Gog the Mild: Hi Gog. After long time. Hope, you are doing well. I just finished my work on this article (as always, its a book by Manilal Dwivedi). Before I publish it, it would be appreciative if you can do copy-editing. Feel free to remove unnecessary details and modify article structure. As per your convenience. There are no any urgency. Thanks. --Gazal world (talk) 21:54, 4 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Opening statement edit

Hello, and come what may from this review, thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. During the review, I may make copyedits, which I will limit to spelling correction and minor changes to punctuation (removal of double spaces and such). I will only make substantive edits that change the flow and structure of the prose if I previously suggested and it is necessary. The Nominator(s) should understand that I am a grammar pedant, and I will nitpick in the interest of prose quality. For responding to my comments, please use   Done,   Fixed,   Added,   Not done,   Doing..., or   Removed, followed by any comment you'd like to make. I will be crossing out my comments as they are redressed, and only mine. A detailed, section-by-section review will follow. –♠Vami_IV†♠ 22:28, 21 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Prose edit

  • All three paragraphs of the lead start with the title. To mitigate this, I suggest merging the second and third sentences, as both discuss the book's reception.
  • Mesmerism is a pseudoscience.
  • I recommend changing the "science" in based on the science of mesmerism to "pseudoscience", or delete it altogether.♠Vami_IV†♠ 07:21, 22 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • Manilal's theological conclusions are that Āryāvarta is the source of all religions; [...] Could you add a few words to clarify that Āryāvarta refers to a historic region of the Indian subcontinent?
  • The last sentence of the second paragraph of "Methodology" should be moved into "Reception and criticism", and germinated into its own paragraph if material on criticism is abundant enough.
