== Changes suggested / required in Sports, Films, and Politics section. Suggest adding more Pictures == |
|||
'''Sports''' |
|||
Claim that "[[Maharashtra cricket team]] represents Maharashtra state in Indian domestic cricket." is incorrect. In Ranji Trophy, there are three Teams that represent different parts of Maharashtra - Mumbai, Maharashtra, and Vidarbha. That Vidarbha and Mumbai Teams are from same state is mentioned elsewhere in article, but that comes after two Paragraphs unrelated to Cricket. Same for the governing bodies of the three teams. |
|||
This section should be rewritten to include all Cricket related info together in few Paras. This section can also highlight achievements of Mumbai and MI in Ranji and IPL respectively.Section should identify Cricketers who have contributed so much to Indian and World Cricket (e.g. Sachin Tendulkar, Sunil Gavaskar, Dilip Vengsarkar, Vijay Hazare). |
|||
This section in a sense does disservice to the contribution that Maharashtra and its Cricketers have made to the Indian and world Cricket. |
|||
:This article is about Maharashtra. You can add more information on cricket in |
|||
Maharashtra in Wikipedia article, [[Sports in Maharashtra]] |
|||
:Thanks for the reply. But if we extend that argument to other sections, no names should be mentioned in Literature, Films / Cinema etc. Ideally, few names should be mentioned in this section. If readers wish to know more, they can refer to Sports section. Also see concerns around correctness of Teams and ownership. - Nonentity683 |
|||
''' Pictures ''' |
|||
We can add more pictures for places of Historical importance like Forts, Ajanta and Ellora Caves, and for people like Jyotirao Phule, and Ambedkar? |
|||
:Historical places you mention are already there. Adding pictures of famous people can be contentiuous with everyone wanting their famous personalities included.It has gone out of hand for many India related articles. |
|||
: Not having pictures of Ambedkar and Phule looks like a big miss. This page does not contain any paintings from Ajanta or Ellora Caves. For example, see Pictures on http://double-dolphin.blogspot.com/2015/12/photography-inside-ajanta-caves-tips-and-tricks.html. - Nonentity683 |
|||
'''Films''' |
|||
This section should ideally be titled Cinema, since it does not describe artefacts, but artists and industry in general. |
|||
First 4 sentences of this section can be rewritten to be concise. There seems to be some redundancy. |
|||
:I will have a look |
|||
'''Grammatical Errors''' |
|||
"when [[Dadasaheb Phalke]] made [[Raja Harishchandra]] a movie in 1913", "with enormous films, television series, books, and other media being set there", "Mumbai has numerous film production studios and it has facilities to produce films.", "Well known for its [[art films]], the early Marathi film industry included acclaimed directors such as Dadasaheb Phalke and [[V. Shantaram]], [[Dada Kondke]] is the most prominent name in Marathi film.", "Here people often plays it as", "nearly all the times sporting arenas remains full house". These can be corrected. |
|||
:This article has undergone copyediting in the past but new editors in recent months have messed up.You are welcome to take a lead in copyediting. |
|||
''' Politics ''' |
|||
This claim seems to be without merit - "Although the Bharatiya Janata Party also features several senior leaders who are dynasts, the phenomenon of dynasticism is at a lower level in the BJP than the Congress party.[152][153] In Maharashtra, the NCP has a particularly high level of dynasticism.[153]". Ref. 152 directly contradicts the claim with a Graph Titled "1999 onwards Congress and BJP are Comparably Dynastic Parties". This reference does not include any Data about Maharashtra. Ref 153 is not available online, so it is not possible to verify is this book contains any relevant info. Given all the dynasts who joined BJP in state after 2014, this just might be the other way around - that State BJP has more Dynasts than congress or NCP. |
|||
These sentences are inaccurate, and should be removed for want of proof / for being inaccurate. |
|||
:I will check the source. |
