Talk:History of Goa

message: Infact Parshurama was nowhere in the History of Goa. Something that is recently written in'Scandpuran' don't have any scope for the history. Scandpuran's whenabout is itself a question. Gawada tribes are living in Goa since thousands of years; infact they are aborigin. Parashuram has no mention in its vocal traditional culture.

thread_title: Parshurama

message: Unfortunately, a whole lot of religion-tinged infighting creeping into how we understand and narrate our history. Can't a NPOV be mentioned here? The impression one gets on reading this -- Muslim bad guys, Hindus the victims, Portuguese the aggressors always out to finish local religion and culture. I think history is more complex than that, though there are many unpleasant aspects to history which we all need to come to terms with. A special appeal to the moderators -- please take note of the religious bigotry that is growing in South Asia (on all sides, in all religions) that shouldn't get an encouragement from laudable and well-intentioned initiatives like Wikipedia! 
PS: On the other hand, there is also an attempt to glorify the Portuguese rule, or criticise India through subtle words inserted strategically. Can Wikipedia work to get a really NPOV which is acceptable to all, regardless of our perspectives, politics, beliefs and religious backgrounds? This will be the real test for Wikipedia.

thread_title: Infighting

message: This article is full of POV that is alternatingly pro-Portuguese and pro-Hindu/anti-Portuguese/whatever. Even the references are annoted with remarks such as "A patriotic critique of Indian imperialism and colonialism in Goa", "An Indianist account in English" and "A patriotic account in Portuguese". Is there any reason this article should not get a POV tag?

replies: text: Yes, it is a POV, but should be cleaned up as soon as possible. =Nichalp «Talk»= 04:06, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

text: Yes, it is POV and Bharatveer makes it worse. I just reverted his last changes. Otto 20:56, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  "Under Indian rule, Goan voters went to the polls in a referendum and voted to become an autonomous, federally administered territory" - This sentence is disingenuous. Goans were never given the option of being part of India or not, the Opinion Poll was about Goa being merged with Maharashtra or remaining a separate entity.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.212.186.193 (talk) 11:35, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

message: Hello, all. It is not that I disagree with Deepak D'Souza. It's just that I think he should have submitted his rewritten version of the leed at the same time as he effected the rather large deletion. It just seems that the leed is too sketchy for such a big subject right now. I wait eagerly for the substitute opener, which I hope will be available shortly.

message: I just found this brief, orphaned article about the Goa Liberation Movement; I was going to propose it for deletion, but then I realised it does have some content worth keeping, so have suggested a merge into this page instead. If anyone wants to integrate the useful content from that page into this one, please feel free to do so. Terraxos (talk) 19:20, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

message: I've added "and Colonisation" to the title of this section as it describes the period of Portugese rule, not just the initial conquest. Epeeist smudge (talk) 09:17, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

message: This article needs a major overhaul. I'm in the process of cleaning up the spelling and grammar errors, but there are a lot of sentences that don't make any sense. The attention of an expert is needed, I think. Pascal (talk) 10:40, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
