- Each of the nayika is pictured in art; iconography can be best conveyed via images.--Redtigerxyz Talk 19:29, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
- @Eshwar.om and Redtigerxyz: Both of you are right, I think we should find add more contents to use those removed images. What you think ? CutestPenguin {talk • contribs} 05:20, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
- User:Cutest Penguin, it is essential that we have at least 1 depiction of each nayika; as their iconography can be conveyed better by a depiction. They are important motifs in Indian art. I do not have additional content to add to them. --Redtigerxyz Talk 05:25, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
- @Redtigerxyz: If possible have visit at National Museum, New Delhi there you can have lots of information about this. Well I support you in using those images even if there is insufficient content. CutestPenguin {talk • contribs} 05:31, 24 July 2014 (UTC)

- While Wikipedia articles are always in a process of development, they on various instances have information of a certain part in more details and cover other aspects in lesser details. When one aspect overburdens the outlook of the article, we call it WP:UNDUE and such WP:POV is reduced and neutralized by (a) adding more info on other aspects or (b) reducing the unduely extra part or (c) both. While information on Ashta Nayikas is not available, how do images present in it are needed to be removed? §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 05:38, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
