In the Fourth Anglo-Mysore the British East India Company was led by Arthur Wellesley and not by Warren Hastings. Refer to Fourth Anglo-Mysore War. Prashanthns 17:11, 29 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

both this page and the one for srirangam point to the same http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sri_Ranganathaswamy_Temple ... wtf?! The place 'Ganjam' is not a district in Karnataka ,but a villege near Srirangapattana.But the link of ganjam is redirecting to a district in Orissa. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.108.12.163 (talk) 12:56, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Literature Section[edit]

Please note that I have added a bullet for another novel that mentions the battle on this page. At the moment, however, I am in discussion with the editor as to whether "The Project Gutenberg EBook" is an appropriate source for the reference. If not, should I source the original edition in 1868 of the book, or arbitrarily use a modern version, e.g., Penguin Classics? When I receive an answer, I'll update the page.

Mentioning Prema Sai Baba in the summary is undue importance and maybe recentism. Andries (talk) 19:25, 25 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"Gallery" related to B's dungeon and Battle of Pollilur (1780)[edit]

Hi, within Srirangapatna imho there's absolutely no need for that gallery:

imho exactly the same gallery is also listed in Battle of Pollilur (1780) since 03:46, 23 January 2015,
in that way imho the gallery was 'overwhelming' Srirangapatna's points of interest since 06:19, 3 February 2015,
so a historical event, please **separate as an article related to that topic, **or imho preferred as a section of Battle of Pollilur (1780) that may be more text-oriented, and 'just link' where's a need for.
btw was also 'over-categorized' within Wikimedia Commons, that's why i remarked.

Hoping you'll agree or discuss, kindly regards, Roland zh (talk) 07:29, 12 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

name[edit]

"anglicised to Seringapatam during the British Raj" is oversimplified and misleading. The Brits (Company rather than Raj at the time) followed one of several variant spellings in use. Tipu himself called it Pattan (no retroflex). Forms similar to Seringapatam can still be found in S Asian languages and, for example, Wikipedia's own Farsi article on Tipu. Srirangapatna majors on its temple traditions. As Yule and Burnell point out (Hobson-Jobson s v Seringapatam) the name probably shares etymology with Srirangam (Tiruchirapalli), leaving "not to be confused with..." itself less than crystal clear!
