I plan to extensively copy-edit this article to raise the
quality. I ask all you fellow editors to please contribute new content, pictures, or ideas so that Lucknow's charm can be seen in this writing as well. We can use
Mumbai and
Delhi as our baseline. For a particular section, the tasks should be done in the given order, please do not mix up. Feel free to add more suggestions and mark completed tasks with a strike-through. For instance, <s>Modify ''Sample'' section</s>
will yield this Modify Sample section.
Thank you,

I have captured a great image for the Lucknow skyline, hope it does better for the article! User:Einstein90
Don't worry, I don't really think Lucknow has a skyline either. User:Einstein90
Hi Guys ! I share your passion for Lucknow. Talking of skylines, do I think Lucknow has a skyline of sorts. Both in the traditional old Lucknow as well as the broad avenued Gomtinagar with its malls and high rises.
We need better and brighter pictures of Lucknow that capture its essence. Some ideas : - Roomi gate which makes a good mascot for the city.( for the introductory section ) - Pictures from Lucknow Zoo ( for laces to visit ) - Qaisebagh complex (for the Culture Section ) - Vidhan Sabha building ( for Setion on Govt & Politics ) -Old and dated pictures like that of La Martiniere should be removed and replaced with newer ones
The lists were a mess. I have made a major structural change by consolidating fragmented sentences and paragraphs. Please discuss here if you decide to modify the structure. I propose to move the institution lists to the appropriate category ( List of educational institutes in Lucknow) and just put a link to the category in this section. Of course, we will be able to elaborate more on prime institutes like Lucknow University or IIM then. What say, guys? — Aksera 00:26, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for that imrovement ! I think it would be a good idea to showcase Lucknow as an Educational and Research hub.
In my opinion , the pictures of schools should be avoided or atleast replaced with better pictures.-- moon 12:02, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Lucknow medival finding belong to pasi kingdoms,even befor Nawab era,who were defeated by muslims(nawab) invaders. Lucknow had two famous king who have given defeat to muslim (nawab) invaders. Lakhnaa paasi(on which Lucknow is also said to get name),Bijli Paasi.Lakhnaa Paasi was beheaded by muslim invaders. His head was thrown into an historical drain of Lucknow Sar-kataa Nalaa (means Human beheaded Drain). The history realted to PAASI kingdom is found in various websites related to Lucknow. - Asheesh Mishra, Lucknow.
Lucknow, a village in the township of Huron-Kinloss in Huron County, Ontario, Canada (Population 1100) was named after the town in India where, in 1857, a vicious battle took place between the besieging native rebels and the British army. Horrendous tales of the Indian Mutiny, as it was called, reached even the Canadian wilderness. "Sepoy" on the town's welcome sign is a reference to the Indian foot soldiers who fought on the British side in the Relief of Lucknow. The "Drive Canny" addendum on the sign is demonstrative of the Scottish ancestry of it's founding people.
Some sections of the webpage are really long, should the be moved to some separate page or a list, for example List of educational institutes in Lucknow and List of companies in Lucknow on the lines of other metro city pages in India 152.66.37.76 14:42, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
I agree too, the article is getting crowded and we could move some information to Lists. IrfanAli 14:44, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
I have copy-edited this article substantially, and I plan to remove the copy-edit notice as well. I have tried not to change any of the content, since I am not from Lucknow, and am not aware of much about Lucknow either. -- ashwatha 09:46, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
I can't undersatnd why the Demographics section of this article has been named so, because the section discusses about language of Lucknow people. Isn't the demography section supposed to talk about the people of Lucknow, instead of only their language? User:Kazimostak
I agree that the stuff should be moved to a new section called "Culture & Language".-- moon 12:05, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

The image File:Dum style cooking.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check
