I hope that article titles are just suggestions and editors may choose their subjects. Yogesh Khandke (talk) 17:24, 22 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Some references on textiles and handicrafts edit

Latest comment: 8 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion
 
Raja Ravi Varma, The Milkmaid (1904)

Invited and encouraged by @Titodutta, I am posting this. Please feel free to revise and expand this list of references. Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 04:00, 24 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Here are some scholarly references that GI Edit-a-thon volunteers may find useful:

  1. EP Ellsworth (1917), Textiles and Costume Design, Paul Elder & Co, pages 5-7, Easier to read format (Old but history part is readily accessible)
  2. GS Ghurye (1967), Indian Costume, Popular Prakashan, ISBN 978-0718922801 (textiles/dress/handicrafts from ancient times to 1800 CE)
  3. Lallanji Gopal (1961), Textiles in Ancient India, Journal of the Economic and Social History of the Orient, Vol. 4, No. 1, pages 53-69 (history of materials used in handicrafts, particularly textiles)
  4. Tirthankar Roy (2014), Trading firms in Colonial India, Business History Review, Harvard University Press, Volume 88, Issue Spring, pages 9–42 (useful in two ways, one for developments during the colonial era, second for the local handicraft related citations you will find in the footnotes)
  5. SR Verman (2013), Women and Their Role in Ancient Indian Textile Craft, Journal of Eurasian studies, Volume V, Issue 4, pages 11-21 (a good recent WP:RS on Indian women and their historic role in textiles/crafts, please help contribute to improving gender balance in wikipedia articles)

Article on Maddalam of Palakkad edit

Latest comment: 8 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

As part of this Edit-a-thon, I created, of course only as a stub, an article on Maddalam of Palakkad. I regret to note that the article has been marked for deletion. I have no objection to deleting the article if it does not satisfy Wikipedia's notability conditions. However, I believe that the simple fact that a topic has been recognised and entered in a national registry by Government of India itself makes it notable.
