I'll try to find time to read through the article and see if I can help at all. As far as other people who might be willing to help, I'd suggest [[User:Accedie|Accedie]], [[User:Despayre|Despayre]], [[User:Rothorpe|Rothorpe]], and [[User:Allens|Allens]].

The volunteer coordinator would have the following responsibilities: * Do whatever needs doing in the WikiProject Hinduism, or getting it done alongwith others. * Do everything that needs doing in the WikiProject, or getting it done alongwith others. * Look after the interests of the WikiProject community in general and the articles in specific. * Represent the views of the WikiProject wherever representation/participation is sought; to get & put forward the community's viewpoint. * Innovate and bring forth new initiatives, continue existing ones and retire defunct ones. * Maintain the WikiProject infrastructure of pages. * Community development - recruitment, motivation, empowerment. * Join the mailing list for Wikipedians working on India related content on English Wikipedia (wikimedia-in-en [at] lists [dot] wikimedia [dot] org) The Volunteer coordinator is a volunteer from the community and is answerable to the community. He enjoys the informal recognition and full support of the community. However, he is open to recall by the community, should the community so decide. I have been requested by [[User:Ashlin]] to recommend candidates and I have recommended you. Let me/Ashlin know if you are interested.

And you ''get it''&nbsp;— the ease of narrowing page ranges is one of the key benefits of this approach to referencing. Named refs encourage citing to wide ranges, often a whole book, and they frequently are expediently re-used when the named ref is to some other page range. :: {{diff|Ahalya|481245315|481163520|This tweak}} is about getting those long urls out of the middle of your paragraphs and would allow you to reuse them if needed by simply adding a <nowiki>{{r|Wilson p650}}</nowiki> somewhere. With {{tl|r}} I don't recommend using the inline page option. [[User:Alarbus|Alarbus]] ([[User talk:Alarbus|talk]]) 00:58, 11 March 2012 (UTC) : Hi, again. {{diff|Ahalya|481701011|481700388This|edit}} should be undone. Two reasons: first it's simply complete information; the full citation should specify the full range of an article within a journal while the inline cites specify a page or range within an article (or omit it if referring to the whole article). Second, [[User:Citation bot]] will put them back into the full cites as it maintains articles (leaving the commented-out one, too).

This volunteership is important because the WikiProject needs vision, guidance and direction and in the absence of anyone undertaking this responsibility in a holistic manner, the community felt that a volunteer coordinator was needed for WikiProject :Hinduism; in fact for each of the task forces/daughter projects/related projects to WikiProject India. We have asked for other volunteers to be co-coordinator alongwith you as you requested. Hopefully someone will respond soon. Your appointment has been announced on the India Noticeboard and on the wikimedia-in-en mailing list. I strongly encourage you to join the wikimedia-in-en list.

These articles require [[WP:ASSESS|assessment]], that is, the addition of a WikiProject template to the talk page of an article, assessing it for quality and importance and adding a few extra parameters to it. As of March 11, 2012, 07:00 UTC, WikiProject India has 95,998 articles under its stewardship. Of these 13,980 articles are completely unassessed (both for class and importance) and another 42,415 articles are unassessed for importance only. Accordingly, a [[Wikipedia:WikiProject India/Assessment/Tag & Assess 2012|Tag & Assess 2012]] drive-cum-contest has begun from March 01, 2012 to last till May 31, 2012. If you are new to assessment, you can learn the minimum about how to evaluate from [[Wikipedia:WikiProject India/Assessment/Tag & Assess 2012/Guide - Part 1|Part One of the Assessment Guide]]. [[Wikipedia:WikiProject India/Assessment/Tag & Assess 2012/Guide - Part 2|Part Two of the Guide]] will help you learn to employ the full functionality of the talk page template, should you choose to do so. You can sign up on the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject India/Assessment/Tag & Assess 2012|Tag & Assess page]]. There are a number of awards to be given in recognition of your efforts. Come & join us to take part in this exciting new venture. You'll learn more about India in this way. {{User0|ssriram_mt}} & {{User0|AshLin}} (Drive coordinators) <small> Delivered per [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Bot_requests&oldid=481419438#Message_to_take_part_in_Assessment_Drive request] on [[Wikipedia:Bot requests]].

There is a total lack of objectivity. I've heard this complaint many times from my peers. What is causing this, and how can it be rectified? Is there a cabal of skeptical editors controlling this? Can you direct me to whom I would complain and how to resolve the problem? I'd rather not do it article by article, as it is a broad spectrum problem.

You can view the TFA blurb at [[Wikipedia:Today's featured article/May 22, 2012]].

If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions at [[Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/instructions]]. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. The blurb as it stands now is below: <blockquote> <div style="float:left;margin:0.5em 0.9em 0.4em 0;">[[File:Ahalya.jpg|100px|Paining of Ahalya by by Raja Ravi Varma]]</div> '''[[Ahalya]]''' is the wife of the sage [[Gautama Maharishi]] in [[Hinduism|Hindu]] [[Hindu mythology|mythology]]. Many [[Hindu scriptures]] describe that she was seduced by [[Indra]], cursed by her husband for infidelity, and liberated from the curse by [[Rama]] (an [[avatar]] of the god [[Vishnu]]). Created by the god [[Brahma]] as the most beautiful woman, Ahalya was married to the much older Gautama. In the earliest full narrative, when Indra comes disguised as her husband, Ahalya sees through his disguise but nevertheless accepts his advances. Ahalya and her lover (or rapist) Indra are cursed by Gautama. Although early texts describe how Ahalya must atone by undergoing severe [[Prāyaścitta|penance]] while remaining invisible to the world and how she is purified by offering Rama [[hospitality]], in the popular retelling developed over time, Ahalya is cursed to become a stone and regains her human form after she is brushed by Rama's foot. Medieval story-tellers often focus on Ahalya's deliverance by Rama, which is seen as proof of the saving grace of God. Her story has been retold numerous times in the scriptures and lives on in modern-age poetry and short stories, as well as in dance and drama. Ahalya is extolled as the first of the ''panchakanya'' ("five virgins"), [[archetype]]s of female [[chastity]] whose names are believed to dispel sin when recited. While some praise her loyalty to her husband and her undaunted acceptance of the curse and gender norms, others condemn her [[adultery]].
