I'll be evaluating this article for GA-status. I'll have a brief look at the article and identify visible errors before a detailed examination of the sources.- Ravi My Tea Kadai 06:32, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
I had a good look at the lead and noted the following concerns.
"The provisional population totals of 2011 census indicate the population of the city is yet to be released"
"Two of the industrial parks, Sriperumbudur and Oragadam, located in the outskirts of Kanchipuram city are home to a large number of automobile, phone, auto parts, float glasses, leather, Information Technology, sugar, garment, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, dyes, dies & forgings, optical fibre and blood bag manufacturers."
Encyclopaediaofauthentichinduism.org and advaita-vedanta.org cannot be considered as reliable sources. Suggesting that they be replaced with suitable alternatives-

I've completely revamped "History" section as felt it was not comprehensive enough. Hope, this is fine with you. Else you can revert then if you feel that the old one is better.- Ravi My Tea Kadai 04:33, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
It is my opinion that the "Religion" section will be better off if reduced to three sections in the following manner

As per criteria 3a I feel the "Geography" section could be expanded more. There could be a sentence on the flora and another on the fauna of Kanchipuram and its surroundings (without going into much detail). There could also be a line on seismic activity in Kanchipuram - Ravi My Tea Kadai 02:30, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
Since there is a heavy backlog in WP:GOCE, I've decided to close this GA review.
1) Well-written: b
2) Factually accurate and verifiable:
3) Broad in its coverage:
4) Neutral:
5) Stable:
6) Illustrated, if possible, by images: b
On the whole the article is good enough for GA though many further enhancements could be made.-

From 'Economy' - myths and legends don't belong in that section. Cheers, Baffle gab1978 ( talk) 20:29, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
According to Hindu legend, Kanchipuram weavers are descendants of Sage Markanda, the celestial weaver for Hindu gods. [1] While cotton is the favourite for Hindu god Shiva, silk is favoured by Vishnu. [1] The existence of all the silk weavers around Vishnu Kanchi where most of the Vishnu temples are located, is attributed to the legend. [1]
