message: Velankanni article should be about Velankanni - place of pilgirimage and about the church.  There is no need for sharing experience on the Aazhip Peralai.  If anyone is interested, please write articles about Aazhip Peralai at Tsunami  —Preceding unsigned comment added by BrownyCat (talk • contribs) 16:44, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

message: The article is provided with telephone numbers belonging to few guest houses and hotels located in Velankanni town.  The article has given only the contact numebers and has not promoted any special facility that may be available in such places.  So, I consider the information provided is useful and not an advertisement.  More over, the list has a variety and not just talk about one single entity or group or organisation.  Please discuss here before removing them, if you consider them as in-appropriate.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by BrownyCat (talk • contribs) 09:57, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm afraid this a clear violation of WP:NOT; ie, wikipedia is not a travel agent and we do not provide contact information for businesses. I removed the entire section for that reason, and the section called "How to travel..." as well, for violating the same policy (WP is not a "How to X" guide for anything). Finally, I'm in the process of removing several sections which are about the church, not the town. The single section that remains which focuses entirely on the church is still the longest section in the article and very disproportionate to the village's overall history; it should probably be rewritten and reduced. Feel free to create a separate article about the church which certainly seems notable enough to have its own page. Happy editing, Doc  Tropics 19:37, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

message: The article/subject name is currently Velankanni Town but the 2001 census used as a reference indicates the proper name is simply Velankanni. Some small municipalities do use the word "town" as part of their proper name, but this does not appear to be the case with Velankanni. The article should be changed to reflect this and simply written as Velankanni, with appropriate redirects as necessary. Are there objections, support, or semi-random thoughts other editors would like to share? Thanks, Doc  Tropics 15:10, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Would prefer it to be Velankanni (town) since Velankanni by itself is a commonly used name for the church or the apparition venerated there. This is why Velankanni used to be a dab page in the past (). --Wiki San Roze †αLҝ 15:20, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

text: There appear to be a number of issues with this edit, including WP:NPOV, WP:V, WP:NOTHOWTO and WP:NOTDIRECTORY.  Wording such as "Velankanni church is considered a very powerful holy place in India where one is cured of any medical ailment when one offers prayers with a true heart." for example, don't belong in an article, unless you have a reliable source that can verify that one is cured of any medical ailment, because that would warrant an entire article of its own, as opposed to a brief mention on this one. - SudoGhost 09:52, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

text: Note: Most of the content removed from this article appears (quite properly) in Basilica of Our Lady of Good Health where it is covered in greater depth and with higher quality writing. Thanks again to Wiki San Roze for excellent work on that piece. Doc  Tropics 14:47, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
