Please check the changes I made on the Lead Para,".... ancient Tamil country which is corresponding roughly to the territories of the present-day Indian states of Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Laccadives, parts of Andhra Pradesh and some parts of Karnataka, as well as Sri Lanka and the Maldives....."

This article seems to consist almost entirely of original research. There are vague references to various objects, symbols, 'historians' and 'studies' with no supporting citations throughout the article. In addition the interpretation of symbols and conclusions also seem to be original research from the contributor, again with no citations. 86.27.140.75 ( talk) 02:04, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
Following WP:BRD: Coppercholride did ask for the "basis" of "cutting down" diff. I think it would be fair if Blackknight12 followed his own request to discuss, instead of revert. Point by point, please.
By the way, removing maintenance tags isn't acceptable either. Greetings, Joshua Jonathan - Let's talk! 18:13, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
Much of the information in the paragraphs do not inform us about Buddhism among Tamil speaking people, but talks of Buddhism in areas in which Tamils reside in Sri Lanka, solely in the Jaffna peninsula and Trincomalee whilst about half of the the Tamils in Sri Lanka reside in the South, central and western regions of the nation. There are no statistics or numbers of how many Tamil Buddhists there are. Many sentences unneeded while many others are lacking citations (which I have removed).
Little of this information has to actually do with Tamil people, rather it is Buddhism in Tamil residing areas, and the influence of Hinduism on it.-- Blackknight12 ( talk) 09:07, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

Blackknight12's observation and interpretation are questionable.
If "Much of the information in the paragraphs do not inform us about Buddhism among Tamil speaking people, but talks of Buddhism in areas in which Tamils reside in Sri Lanka, solely in the Jaffna peninsula and Trincomalee.....", then what about the Tamil Buddhism in Tamil Nadu?
Should Tamil Nadu also be considered as "Little of this information has to actually do with Tamil people, rather it is Buddhism in Tamil residing areas, and the influence of Hinduism on it."?
Please note geographically the areas which were under the influence of Buddhism in Tamil Nadu and in Northern/Eastern Sri Lanka are closely located. Shivaass ( talk) 13:55, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
