Talk:Ramanuja

message: I have identified plenty of sources for Ramanuja many written in English. They all are reputed authors, referenced and published and freely available on archives/ forgotten books or other sites for download and studying.
With this I propose to alter the structure for this article to reflect what various biographies and commentators have recorded about his life since his lifetime and subsequently as well. This would include the key events in his life during his education and his interaction with various gurus, Move to Sri Rangam from Kanchi, His travels to obtain the commentary of Bhodayana Vridhi to write his  Sri Bhashyam,  his struggles his flight to Melkote and establishment of Vaishnava temples there and subsequent return to Sri Rangam, His principle disciples and their composition on Ramanuja. His Successors. 
There are contentious topics right from the authorship to philosophy. Such topics can be discussed under the same relevant heading after recording the accepted version of his Life. That way this article will do a full justice to the subject.
BTW also managed to find a book on Iconography which describes the usual posture for Ramanuja. (This was deleted for want of proper source of reference).
Fellow editors / Contributors a couple of questions for you all
a) Do you want me to record the name of the book or you want me to include the link as well. (you good google it up)
b) If you have anything else to add to the approach described above let me know.

replies: text: If the sources meet WP:RS guidelines, they would be welcome. Expect WP:SPS, WP:QUESTIONABLE and similar non-reliable sources, such as hagiographies published by monasteries linked to him to get challenged. This applies to both Tenkalai or Vadakalai sub-traditions. Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 15:15, 2 April 2017 (UTC)

text: There are very old sources, some ~100 years old. Please see WP:HISTRS and avoid rewinding scholarship clock back to the colonial era. Please consider using more recent reviews and peer-reviewed second sources. My response may appear discouraging, that is not my intent. We need to respect wikipedia community agreed content policies and guidelines. On POV allegations, just because you disagree with a WP:RS published in 2012, or you allege "no text states so", does not make you more reliable than the WP:RS and the professor who wrote what you disagree with.

thread_title:  Sources for Ramanuja and the overall structure of this particular article. 

message: Regarding sudden change in Birth date after this revision, Pinging, Hi, I noticed that you reverted my edits. Anyway, I wants to discuss this here as most of the sources supports the Traditional Date of Birth , i.e 1017 ce. As far as my consent, there are 3 proposed dates,
1.)c.1016-1100(?)ce- 
2.) c.1177-1157 ce- which is changed ago some days.
3=Traditional dates=c.1017-1137ce ,https://doi.org/10.1163%2F9789004432802_010, https://books.google.com/books?id=9SpTAQAAQBAJ, https://books.google.co.in/books?id=ZP_f9icf2roC&pg=PA904&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false - this is the most attributed DOB which is followed including the textbooks and many Encyclopedia like [this encyclopedia uses]. So, The Date of Birth should not have changed without  big consensus. Hence, I'm rechanging the original dates. Please check other Library too.

message: i have replaced the Birth and death dates with the one that aligns with modern Scholars. There is no reason to trust traditional dated over this.  SKAG123 (talk) 04:24, 16 November 2023 (UTC)
