editThis article is in terrible situation and needs a major editing exercise !Jonathansammy (talk) 21:20, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
But what in specific are the inaccuracies in the article that need to be fixed? I agree that having only so few sources is not compatible with a well written article, but when I read it, I am not struck by anything specific that is grossly inaccurate. In fact it is better than a lot of Wikipedia articles. If there is nothing that is incorrect in the article, I see no reason to change it. [[User:|User:]] ([[User talk:|talk]]) 16:25, 23 April 2013

Satya pir - Narayan
editWiikipedia says assume good faith. Nevertheless , I have no problem in quoting from some of the references I had cited. If I want to , I can add dozens of references related to Satya Pir / Satya Narayan but I thought three should give enough weight.
This references says[1] "One supplicant will address him as Satya Narayana, implying that he is an avatar of Krishna, while another one in a different tale will be told that Satya Pir has just come from Mecca, which would make him Muslim."
This reference says [2]
"Some of these figures have been viewed as pirs and by others as deities as evidenced in literary sources about figues such as Satya pir, Satya Narayan or Pir-Narayan" Jonathansammy (talk) 17:24, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
Here is another reference:
Moreover, Sufism gained popularity in Orissa and led to the emergence of the Satya-Pir tradition.Even today Hindus worship Satyanarayan and pir together.[3]

- None of these references even remotely support the notion that Satyanarayana puja is syncretism of Hindu and Sufi traditions.VictoriaGraysonTalk 23:02, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
