Why the maravan pada info is not there. Can you please explain. Can you please add a better description when you add or remove some info.
Thanks.

::Pls refer Travancore State Manual-Velu Pillai.
Written in 1940, it clearly debunks many of the claims of Travancore being weak in its early history.I think maravan pada is also mentioned in this one. 
I felt that most of the earlier sentences were just meant to glorify panyaanadu, nayaks , etc etc  and historically inaccurate.Bharatveer 10:09, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

message: The name Rama varma is a very common name among royalty of kerala. The Dharma raja or Kathika Thirunal Rama varma  is more apt name also recognised in the history among the people of kerala. The link was shifted to dharma raja.activevoid 06:56, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Upto which part of modern Kerala does the old travancore exists?the northern part especially.does travencore reached beyond Muvattupuzha,Angamali etc.also it seems the article does not define the division btw tranvancore and Cochin properly-almong with  a MAP which shows Tiru-Kochi;not alone travancore.
::It lies further north from muvattupuzha..the second map shows the boundary. Travancore boundaries almost touched cochin Manu  —Preceding comment was added at 12:39, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  where lies the northern end of Travancore?is it Muvattupuzha? 

message: According to Prof. Sreedhara Menon's book, HRH Marthanda Varma established the state of Travancore after he became the Raja of Venad. Therefore, it may not be correct to classify the earlier rulers (like Ummayamma Rani) as rulers of Travancore.  I think that this should be corrected.  I had complied a list of the venad rulers too, but that correction now has disappeared. There is a gap of about 50 years when we do not have any records, possibly due to the Pandyan invasion of Venad.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.107.28.102 (talk) 12:17, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

message: There seems to an overuse of "A.D." on this page. 66.31.76.221 (talk) 18:38, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: A.D.

message: Even though Travancore was the largest kingdom in the present Kerala area at that point of time, it cannot be classified as an empire in the likes of the Mughal, Maharatta, or Chola empires.  So I have corrected that. There was also a few words about Velu Thampi in the section where the early beginnings of Travancore was being discussed. Since he came to the scene much later, i have removed that section.
There was also a comment about the mode of the defeat of Tipu. Even though this is what I had heard from my childhood days, this event has not been cited by real historians.... Malayalees, Indians and Europeans.  So I took the liberty of modifying it too.  If you do have a citation or reference for that, please do include it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.105.79.212 (talk) 23:44, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

message: Please provide academic sources for the destruction of the dam. i agree that this is the version that I had heard in Kerala, but none of the historians report this sequence of events. Also please provide academic sources about the death of Tipu's cousin. The official version is that he fell into a ditch and became lame, though the Kerala version is that the travancorean soldiers hacked his knee cap off.
:Yes, it lacks reliable sources. If someone could provide, please help. AshLey Msg 09:43, 15 October 2012 (UTC)

message: Rulers like Ummayamma maharani were rulers of Venad, not of Travancore. It was HRH Marthanda Varma who had founded Travancore.  So I have corrected the list of rulers.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.25.227.133 (talk) 09:23, 2 December 2012 (UTC)

message: I have corrected the grammar and construction of the introduction. There was an unverified statement about Kannikar being the backbone of the military, so I have edited it. From what I have read, the Nairs formed the backbone of the Army, though other communites including (and not limited to) Maravas, Ezhavas, Nadars, Muslims, Arayans and Syrian Christians had joined the military too.

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Travancore's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
