message: I have moved some of the descriptions and am going to put it in detail in the child pages. These pages already exist so there is no reason to put paragraphs in the main article. Makes it less cluttered and to the point. In addition, there are several more that either need to be added here or created anew. Will keep doing so in the next few days. Please discuss if you have a better format to present this section. gnusbiz 01:08, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Places of interest 

message: In an endeavour to make this article more along the lines of  featured articles on Wikipedia I am going to change the layout. This may include:
* Removing places of interest and creating a separate article, say, tourism in Shimla, with all of the material in child pages and detailed descriptions (this may require deletion of child pages like,  Mall road, Shimla etc. I don't feel that that should be a separate page for each of those on an encyclopedia. Any thoughts??)
:*No need to delete child pages. This article is just a summary article. More detailed info can be put into child pages. Mall Road, Shimla has a historical significance of its own and thus deserves a separate article — Lost(talk) 01:45, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

text: Go ahead and also have a look at other similar featured articles such as Delhi, Mumbai, Kochi etc. Just follow a similar format. All the best for your effort to make it featured. — Lost(talk) 01:42, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Great! I'll try to work on the main article then during the next week or so. It'll be nice if you can throw in some links/add missing citations. I should ask you to review some heavy changes as well. Thanks! --- gnusbiz 07:49, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

message: I have added a new section : Places of Interest as there was nothing, i have also added some pictures along with it.Rohan 09:30, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Not sure if that's a good idea. See  for recommended sections by the Indian cities project. Places of interest, if they are very popular, could go into their own respective articles, or in Wikitravel. gnusbiz (talk) 01:03, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

text: I have edited the Places of Interest section to remove much of the advertising and guidebook aspects, as per the advice given above. Please do not replace unencyclopaedic material: WP is not Lonely Planet and only a mention of those places bearing their own pages or internal references should be placed here.

message: Why are the pictures of the stained glass windows in Christ Church, Shimla, and the exterior of Christ Church, Shimla identified as St Michael's Catholic Church, Shimla? Similarly, the article on Christ Church, Shimla was altered in 2011 to remove references to Christ Church, Shimla and replace the longer description there with one sentence referring to St Michael's Catholic church, Shimla. If, indeed, Christ Church is now St Michael's Catholic church, that information needs to be sourced, and an appropriate explanation given in the text about the historic parish of Christ Church, Shimla.

message: Summary says "The elevation of the city ranges from 300 to 6000 metres" ... doesn't seem right.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 183.82.253.89 (talk) 14:46, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Is the elevation range correct? 

message: That Hindi is pronounced shi-ma-lā, in theory.
Losing the 'a' from the middle syllable should require the conjunct of मल.
So, is the pronunciation correct? Is the 'a' not pronounced at all? Pronounced very lightly?

message: @Arjayay, I did not said that that you meant it was unsourced or something. I removed the terms "goddess" because is does satisfy WP:WIKIVOICE. We already introduced to readers that in "History" section that Kali in a goddess in hinduism. So in other places in this article, we remove the terms such as goddess or other religious terms. 182.183.45.116 (talk) 21:20, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: The "Etymology" section comes before the "History" section, so we have not "already (my bold) introduced to readers that in "History" section that Kali in a goddess in hinduism".  It should be explained at its first mention, not require readers to read further on to understand a section they have already read. - Arjayay (talk) 21:32, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
