thread_title:  Many articles link to this one on Meenakshi 

message: Shouldn't this section:
Winning over maya (illusion) is just the realisation of Truth. This is what the Lord can do for us. This is the purpose of all scriptures. This Realisation is the establishment of the symbol (Linga-sthApanaM) of the Light of the Self. Lord Rama did this on the shores of the Ocean just before He crossed over to Lanka. The Lord Shiva as Sundaresvara did a similar pratiSThApanaM (winning over maya) on the day of his wedding with the Goddess Minakshi. Throughout the three worlds the establishment of the sphaTika-lingaM as the unique expression of the Truth in one’s heart augurs for the victory over the mysterious prakRti.[2]
Be a quote or something?  It seems to be a religious text of some kind. --72.23.28.29 (talk) 20:15, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

message: Hi agasthyathepirate
Why would you delete , which is a valid source?
Is there a problem with the name Meenkashi also having a Tamil origin? I provided pretty much reliable sources which was published by the Government of Tamil Nadu. I don't think your sources are bad, but they are not specialized on etymology, while my source is a official Etymology dictionary and thus I left both versions there. You just deleted a valid sourced content with its source. Shouldn't you at least take it talk page before making any edits? I think it is strange that you also didn't answered further on my talk page after I gave you an answer. I also waited on you to answer for two days and even mentioned in my edit that you didn't answer my talk page, which you haven't thill date. At least answer here? This https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Meenakshi_Temple&diff=802755075&oldid=802753626, is also unreasonable justification of reverting my edit when my content was valid with valid source.  I will give it two days before reverting back both articles if I don't get an answer here, because my edits were valid.Xenani (talk) 19:09, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: hi Xenani, note that your edits are not reversed, they are modified as per the sources provided by you. I have deleted/changed the content which seemed to be of your own interest of highlighting Tamil. I have just made changes as per the source quoted by you on Tamil meaning of Meenakshi. And this is English Wikipedia try to provide valid English sources. In Meenakshi Temple page you have intentionally replaced existing content with your content and that is the reason they are reverted. Hope you understand. agasthyathepirate(talk) 20:08, 28 September 2017 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The article was recently moved without discussion to . I've moved it back, but this isn't the first time, as a previous move happened in 2017. Also, there are numerous aliases in the lead. Meenakshi appears to be the more common of the two, but there are other options, and it deserves further investigation and discussion. I'll request assistance from the India noticeboard for additional opinions. Mathglot (talk) 09:05, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Ideally it should be "Minakshi" or "Mīnākṣī", because of Wikipedia Indic naming conventions, and Indic transliteration practices. There was a comment in 2004 on this very page. Meenakshi is the more common spelling because of older transliteration practices.  Wizardofalltrades (talk) 15:46, 1 May 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Recent move 

message: Recent reverted edits included the following statement:
 
"Truth - Tirthankar Neminatha the family god of the pandyas was hidden away and Kushmandini was renamed Minakshi And Converted to Hindu Temple.  The Andis there perscuted the Jainas and celebrated the festival of Pikes [Sramano Sulada Habba]."
Is there any readily available information on the alleged conversion?  Has this topic been researched? 47.138.17.114 (talk) 00:15, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
