message: :Image:Ancient Indian Elephant.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Ancient Indian Elephant.jpg

message: I think the factual accuracy of this article is beyond questionable.During the invasion of Alexander there were two kingdoms in eastern India - Magadha Empire which was also known as Nanda empire or Prasii (Prachi)and an united kingdom of Vanga-Kalinga which was known as Gangaridai according to the name of the capital city -Ganga.When Vanga was conquered by the Mauriyans the centre of power shifted from Bengal to Kalinga until it was conquered by Asoka.The Kalinga war had been mentioned as the 'Battle of the Gangaridai' in the poem Georgics by Virgil.And it is with the Mauriyan conquest that the Aryan culture starts to flow in Bengal.I never mentioned Gangaridai was an Aryan kindom ,may be it was a Dravidian kingdom ,probably the last Dravidian kingdom in the Aryavarta.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.18.228.137 (talk) 16:56, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

message: I think there should be some elaboration about this historical(?) kingdom's location and boundary. To me the kingdom if existed might have included parts of modern West Bengal. But there is no proof or citation that says that the Kingdom included modern Bangladesh. Any thought? Miniman77 (talk) 09:17, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

message: - Can you please check sources for the map posted in Infobox? It looks wrong and unsource, also unclear on what this "neutral territory" is based on, along with unclear extent of Gangaridai territory in Ganges (Nanda Empire extension would be better reference). Gujarat and Rajasthan are shown as being part of Alexanders Empire when they were not. 117.198.121.126 (talk) 21:17, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, the whole infobox was nonsense. I removed it. The map is wrong too, for the reasons you mention. I have no idea what "neutral territory" is supposed to mean. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 21:46, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for removing that POV map. I've restored the old Ptolemy map that was in the longstanding version, as can be seen in this version edited by . - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 06:45, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
