message: This is just a general suggestion, but there should be accurate maps that depict the areas of influence and direct control for each monarch like on the Changragupta page  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.211.249.183 (talk) 20:04, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

message: This article's introduction talks about Dr. Ranajit Pal, and includes statements like "Dr. Ranajit Pal stated..". Is this guy a vetted authority on history? I see that he is a proponent of an alternate theory, but is it necessary to give this much credence to his views. The introduction may need re-writing.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.96.227.70 (talk) 11:27, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Ranajit Pal

message: He is stated as being born in 320BC and dying in 272BC, and yet it says he was 52 years old at his death. Given these dates he would have been 48 years old when dying (320-272=48), so is it an error by the original editor in calculating the age at death, or are the dates wrong? I don't have personally the expertise (or time) to research this topic, or else I would.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.102.129.191 (talk) 14:54, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

message: There are two references provided for the Strabo book referenced in the first article section.  Upon seeing to improve the referencing style, I located the url that was previously cited, and also found an additional url.  The one referenced first is the new URL I found. I used it first because the URL leads to a site where one can view the original source entirely and actually flip through the pages.  With this, I was able to identify the page number of the sourced material and include it in the reference.  It is also possible to download a pdf version of the source from this site.  I left the original (previously referenced) URL source as an additional citation because this URL leads to a cite that provides information regarding the source's URI and URN.  Should these be of standard uses in Wikipedia referencing in the future, the information is provided on this website.  I did not find a template showing how to include book, chapter, and section number in the citation, and this information is necessary to locate the material through this (Original, previously cited) URL, so I included it following volume. I am not sure if this is correct, but I thought it looked appropriate.  For the new source I found (the one shown first of the two in the references) this (book, chapter, and section number) information is not necessary, as the source information can be located directly with volume and page number.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Datdyat (talk • contribs) 14:52, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
