@Pratyk321: Malformed nomination: no hook provided Please fix. SD0001 (talk) 12:41, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
@SD0001:, Thanks for writing back. I have used other nomination pages to fix hooks. Kindly, review suggest if I should update these further. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pratyk321 (talkcontribs) 18:56, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
  • The article needs a copyedit for English grammar. One sentence after another shows unfamiliarity with spelling and sentence structure, e.g. Kumbariya Jain temple are famous for there ellaborate architecture. The Jain temples, Kumbhariya along with Dilwara temples, Girnar Jain temples and Taranga Jain temple are considered excellent example of Chaulukyan architecture. Mahavira, Shantinatha and Parshvanatha temple are the one of the most renowned temple in India. You could apply for help at WP:GOCE. Yoninah (talk) 22:24, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
  • @Pratyk321: you still have subject-verb confusion throughout the article. Here is an example, including a spelling mistake: It is believed that at one time 360 temple existed in the region but were destroyed due volcanic disturbance, now only five temple still remains standing. Someone needs to go over the whole article. Yoninah (talk) 20:53, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
  • @Pratyk321: When WP:GOCE works on an article they leave a template message on the talk page. I'm not sure who your GOCE is, but it's still not English. See: Sambhavanatha temple is a small temple is a typical example of rich Chaulukyan architecture. According to an inscription found in the Mahavira temple, states that the idol was a gift from Pahini in 1085 CE. I'm not going to keep picking out examples of bad grammar. Please get this edited properly. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 13:15, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
Article has been copyedited. So the article has <600 words, which does not meet the DYK length requirement of 1,500 words of prose. Can I Log In (talk) 22:43, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
  • @Can I Log In: thanks for your work! The length requirement is 1500 characters, not words. This article has more than 3,900 characters, so it's eligible. I'll review it tomorrow. BTW, what is a "porched gateway"? Do you mean an "arched gateway"? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 00:17, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
  • Let's just assume arched. And uh Facepalm wow I'm so good at reading... Can I Log In (talk) 00:44, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
  • Thank you for your work, Can I Log In. I have done further editing to fix the English grammar. I've also copyedited the section that Pratyk321 added to Māru-Gurjara architecture.
  • Here is a full review: New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen in online sources. Images are freely licensed. No QPQ needed for nominator with less than 5 DYK credits.
  • None of the hooks, however, are interesting enough to click on and read more; they are merely statements of fact. I've struck them all. I'm surprised that you are not building a hook around that fantastic image in the article. Such as:
Interior of the Mahavira temple
Interior of the Mahavira temple
  • @Pratyk321: there is no reason to add sources to this template. The main thing is that they are present as inline cites in the article. Are they? I thought so. Yoninah (talk) 19:49, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah:, Could you please confirm further steps I need to make?
  • @Pratyk321: I can see that ALT3 is verified in the article but the source for the second part of ALT4, that they are noted for their elaborate architecture, is not clear. Are you happy with ALT3? Yoninah (talk) 15:56, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
*@Yoninah: looks good. Could we include "that the Kumbharia Jain temples (one pictured), built between the 11th and 13th centuries" part of ALT4 with ALT3?
  • @Pratyk321: Why? We're not looking to say everything in the hook, just write something interesting that readers will click on to find out more. Anyway, there's the image to look at too. Yoninah (talk) 21:07, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
As I said, ALT3 is better sourced. Since I wrote the hook, requesting a reviewer for ALT3. Pinging evrik and Kingsif for help here. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 10:23, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
I concur with the comments below. --evrik (talk) 13:58, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
ALT 3 reviewed: interesting, sourced in article - sources all seem primary, but it is a tourism/state matter so these seem acceptable. Article meets requirements. No comment on the image, but would be a good change up from portraits/diagrams if needed. Kingsif (talk) 12:16, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
