Comments
edit- What is meant by two formats? In the intro this seems an awkward phrase when referring to buildings. Dr. Blofeld White cat 10:50, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
- There is inconsistency in the capitalisation of Dhamma or dhamma. Dr. Blofeld White cat 11:04, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
- In the history section there is a lot of information which is irrelevant to the edicts. A brief is OK but it is supposed to be a history of the edicts not the person who established them.. Dr. Blofeld White cat 11:10, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
- Ashokan edicts, which have special significance in view of the message they convey, were found in his vast empire in several languages and scripts. What do you mean, found in his vast empire? There is a confusion here between time and place. Dr. Blofeld White cat 11:13, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
- You have the tendency to use the word "vis-à-vis" quite a lot. This word is not used much in English speech, in fact I cannot recall ever hearing anybody say it. It is more common to say something was "adjacent to" , "directly opposite" or the english words face to face rather than the french saying.. Dr. Blofeld White cat 12:05, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for the comments. These have been addressed now.--Nvvchar (talk) 23:56, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
Rename?
editWould not Ashokan Edicts in Dehli, or similar, be better? Johnbod (talk) 01:30, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, Agreed.
- I saw the review observations just now. I will make changes and also reply in the next two days. Thanks.--Nvvchar 13:01, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
