Title italicized?
[edit]WP:ITALICTITLE states that "Italics are not used for major religious works (the Bible, the Quran, the Talmud)." Rigveda is the most major in Vedas, an already major composition within Hinduism, so shouldn't it be non italicized? ExclusiveEditor 🔔 Ping Me! 14:30, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- @ExclusiveEditor yes I agree. Unless someone strongly disagrees, I think we can change this. Asteramellus (talk) 01:26, 24 January 2025 (UTC)
Dates and location
[edit]You should more sources of dates of rig-Ved, especially dates from genuine Indian scholars, so that European bias can be removed. Saraswati is Ghaggar-Hakra river and it is not located in Afghanistan. Just by reviewing few lines I can see that this text is biased . 49.187.20.50 (talk) 07:40, 21 January 2025 (UTC)
