Review by thunderboltza.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. -- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK15:11, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • 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)[reply]
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.-- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK09:35, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Done with the pic. What do you think about Image:Sankara-big.jpg?--Babub(Talk|Contribs) 14:45, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
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)[reply]
