Being split out? edit

Is this in the process of actively being split out from the Orissa article, or is it a redundant fork which should be deleted? Gene Nygaard 01:11, 13 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

The list of monuments is incomplete. See Yule, Early Historic Sites in Orissa, Delhi 2006 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.249.154.146 (talk) 22:54, 30 January 2016 (UTC) for example Badmal, Budigarh, Ganjam, Golabai, Jamsaragarh, Jaugada, Kharligarh, Khurdigarh, Manmunda, Rabania, Radhanagar, Sitabhinji etc.Reply

Copyright Violation(s)??? edit

At least part of the "blurb" about Ranipur-Jharial was copy and pasted from 123Orissa.com. The entire article reads like a tourism book. I suspect it is all a copyright violation, however, I can't find a specific reference. James084 16:21, 1 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

I am not sure. I copied it from the Wikipedia article on Orissa. The person who posted it in the Orissa entry may have copied it.

I copied this from the Orissa as everything is in a real BIG mess there, and some sections from Orissa need to be transferred to new articles.

I will eventually make this article look good, and add more stuff to it, just like I did to Oriya cuisine or Jayadeva or Vedanta University. I just don't have time until mid January to get down to rewrite/reorganize this article until then.

I'll also clean up/enhance other articles too later, such as Ritwik Sanyal.

References edit

I added some references. I was unable to find the copyright violations. If we find that some body has copied something, then we should delete ONLY the offending portion and not the entire article Preetikapoor0 23:20, 28 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

WP:INDIA Banner/Orissa Addition edit

Note: {{WP India}} Project Banner with Orissa workgroup parameters was added to this article talk page because the article falls under Category:Orissa or its subcategories. Should you feel this addition is inappropriate , please undo my changes and update/remove the relavent categories to the article -- Amartyabag TALK2ME 07:26, 3 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Historic sites in OrissaHistoric sites in Odisha

  • Most English-speakers outside India know this area as Orissa. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 10:01, 31 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • Actual nominator's rationale- As per successful RM discussion at Talk:Odisha to move the article from Orissa to Odisha, it is equally logical to move relevant articles to "... Odisha". There is also a need to built clear consensus whether all related articles will henceforth use Odisha in the articles. Amartyabag TALK2ME 15:57, 31 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • Support. I don't agree with the view of Anthony Appleyard. I think most English-speakers outside India do not know who or what Orissa or Odisha means; so it hardly matters to them.--GDibyendu (talk) 17:05, 31 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • Move everything Since consensus is that the Wiki name of the state is Odisha, we should change all references, including historical ones, to Odisha, excepting those that are within quotes. --regentspark (comment) 17:15, 31 January 2013 (UTC)Reply


  • Support: These should really be dealt with as technical requests. The debate (a very thorough one) on the name of the state took place at Talk:Odisha, when it was determined to move the page. These sub-pages should follow automatically. Skinsmoke (talk) 07:27, 1 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Copyright vio? edit

I notice that the article has been tagged since 2006. Honestly, the text does read like a copyright vio but, if someone has access to refs 1, 2, and 3, could you please try to confirm this?--regentspark (comment) 17:20, 31 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
