thread_title:  Addition of Rourkela Template 

message: It appears both Rourkela and Raurkela are used with Census data using Raurkela (see censusindia.gov.in), but many Universities and Agencies using Rourkela.  So which should be use as the name of the article? Frietjes (talk) 23:06, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi User Frietjes, that's an interesting point... However the bulk of the usage even in other official sites puts the name as "Rourkela", so having a representation that is acceptable at the state level would be valid... Some refs. from the official site... http://ds.orissaminerals.gov.in/gisreport/ROURKELA.html, http://dcmsme.gov.in/dips/DIPS-New-Sungarh%20-%20Copy.pdf, http://www.orissaminerals.gov.in/website/StateIndustry.aspx?GL=sip&PL=3, etc. Even maps refer to the location with the same name.

message: The first para under the section 'Economy' goes like this.
'Rourkela is the industrial capital of Odisha (Formerly Orissa). Rourkela, with a population of 6 lakhs and the first place in India to house the 1.8 million ton integrated steel plant, joins the IT world through STPI. The city is popularly known as the engineering heartland of India. It is truly cosmopolitan in nature and enjoys high-class international infrastructure, modern amenities, and skilled professionals for software development and exports. Odisha (Formerly Orissa) being the latest addition in E-Governance applications, creates enthusiasm for software development companies to explore the domestic business also. Location-wise it is truly a hill station, with integrated infrastructure such as rail, road, air, abundant natural mineral resources such as water, land, power, rich pool of skilled people, top-rated social and civic infrastructure for reposing, and Universal friendliness. These factors have attracted many industrialists outside the state to choose Rourkela as their destination.'
The intro as a whole is fluffy, to say the least,out of which the following sentences need to be removed / re-worded
1) The city is popularly known as the engineering heartland of India. - Really? On what basis is this claim being made? Remember, this city as of date doesn't have an airport. While it is true that SAIL has a major steel plant set up here, this hardly qualifies as being described as the engineering heartland of India. Remember, when talking of the entire country of India, one is comparing this city to cities like Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Chennai etc. which will have much more manufacturing and IT (just to cite 2 examples) companies any given day. Suggest re-wording to 'The city is popularly known as the engineering heartland of Orissa'.
2) Odisha (Formerly Orissa) being the latest addition in E-Governance applications, creates enthusiasm for software development companies to explore the domestic business also. 
What does this sentence mean or try to convey? This should be re-worded once the meaning is clear or deleted all together.
3) Location-wise it is truly a hill station, with integrated infrastructure such as rail, road, air, abundant natural mineral resources such as water, land, power, rich pool of skilled people, top-rated social and civic infrastructure for reposing, and Universal friendliness.
This is fluff, we can keep it but Rourkela is no hill station. This city has a hot, dry summer with temperatures exceeding 40 degrees centigrade quite often. Ideally, I would like to remove this sentence as it adds no value to the article, at the bare minimum suggest removing the term ' hill station' from the fluff.
