Talk:Parangimalai

message: IMHO, I do not think that the merger with Santhome needs to be carried out. This is because both Santhome and St. Thomas Mount are separate places in Chennai - hence they need not be merged. Let two articles exist. But because they seem to have a shared history, may be we can add a 'See also' reference to each other. The Silent Contributor 09:37, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merger with [[Santhome]] 

message: I shall carry out the merger of Saint Thomas Mount with this article on the 2nd of September, if nobody has any objections. If you do have any objections, post them here or on my talk page. The Silent Contributor 14:13, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merger with [[Saint Thomas Mount]] 

message: I'm from Chennai (Madras) and these two are very distinct places there.  They are around 10kms apart with different other neighbourhoods in-between.  In Chennai, there is no confusion between these two areas.  I do agree, that "See also" may be appropriate because of the name relationship.

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.

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.

thread_title:  What's a flying range? 

message: The article says that Thomas the Apostle is "mistakenly understood to be attained martyrdom here in Chennai", but doesn't provide references for either the "understanding" or the evidence that it's a mistake.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Francispotter (talk • contribs) 05:10, 30 April 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: @Francispotter There is in the first instance no credible evidence provided for the alleged fact that St Thomas the Apostle attained martyrdom here in Chennai. Even the Catholic Church in Vatican doesn't recognise that. 2A01:4B00:942F:9600:74EA:8EEF:F434:662B (talk) 21:55, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reference to Thomas the Apostle 

message: Parangimalai (பரங்கிமலை) in Tamil language exists and not in English. Whereas St. Thomas Mount in English is so called as பரங்கிமலை (Parangimalai) in Tamil language.
So, 'St. Thomas Mount' as the article title will be more suitable and hence it is to be considered.
