Opening statement

In reviews I conduct, I may make small copyedits. These will only be limited to spelling and punctuation (removal of double spaces and such). I will only make substantive edits that change the flow and structure of the prose if I previously suggested and it is necessary. For replying to Reviewer comment, please use Done, Fixed, Added, Not done, Doing..., or Removed, followed by any comment you'd like to make. I will be crossing out my comments as they are redressed, and only mine. A detailed, section-by-section review will follow. —♠Vami _IV†♠ 22:27, 14 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This was almost a Quick Pass from me, but I think there are some additions to be made to the article. They are detailed below. –♠Vami _IV†♠ 22:27, 14 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks for taking this on, and for the kind words. Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:42, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Broadness and prose

~~Could you discuss what yoga is in "Context"?~~

Somewhat like trying to define Jazz...

Done

~~What language was the book first published in? I assume English, but the article doesn't tell me.~~

Yes.

Done

~~Move The yoga scholar Mark Singleton [...] into the first paragraph of "Reception".~~

Moved and merged with his other comments. Or we can mention him both under Illustrations and under Reception, as you like.

Done

The yoga teacher Bernie Gourley [...] This sentence is golden as a transition from praise for the book to criticism of it.

Thank you.

Proposal for adding photo of B. K. S. Iyengar

A photo of B. K. S. Iyengar would be more appropriate for this article than Yehudi Menuhin. -- Ifteebd10 (talk) 18:05, 4 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
