Review discussion

• Could you help me get a feel for the approach taken on the citations and references sections. More specifically, have all of the items in the "references" section been used in citations? North8000 (talk) 23:53, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

There was a dup and i have removed it. All references are used.Ssriram mt (talk) 01:37, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

• In the cites there are some that just say "Hemingway" with a link, but the link does not go anywhere / not to any reference. Could you clarify / fix? North8000 (talk) 02:26, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

 Done

• There are two references (the Chisholm Britannica article and the V., Vriddhagirisan piece) where I could not find where they were cited/ used as references. Could you clarify? Thanks. North8000 (talk) 02:26, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

I have removed the Britannica reference as it is not used anymore. V. has short citations - i have added the url as well. Ssriram mt (talk) 23:49, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

What threw me was that the display name for the ref was just "V" which I believe is the first initial of their first name. (the source lists their name as V.Vriddhagirisan) This seemed to follow the listing in the reference which I believe had them reversed. I think I fixed it. North8000 (talk) 11:32, 22 May 2013 (UTC).

Result

What a well-done and thorough article! This passes as a Wikipedia Good Article. I usually try to offer suggestions for further improvement/development and am hard-pressed to do so except for two small ones. It would be a nice addition to add an image of a typical part of the city, possibly it's center. Most of the images are for "special" places and items. Also, you might want to note on the talk page header that the article uses British English so that there is clarity / no confusion on that. Congratulations!

Thanks a lot. I will take up the suggestions and will try to fill it. Ssriram mt (talk) 03:38, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

Yes, I was thinking that a bit more on "everyday life" / "what's it like there?" would be good. Not knowing how to put that into specifics, I just had the picture idea. Sincerely, North8000 (talk) 10:41, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
