Yes I guess your right that articles such as this don't need many inline citations. It's just since inline citations are generally required all the time for an article to go FA, I just though this article isn't going to be FA much longer. I'm assuming that some of the dates and numbers in "History" and "Forms of cricket" probably can have an inline citations though. - Tutmosis 17:04, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi! After some talks with Ambuj, I am messaging you. Following are some points on the article (copies from Ambuj's talk page):
Some observations: What are the last two entries under "Notes" doing? I mean they are not specifically cited. If they are not specifically cited, those two can be moved under "References", while rest of the stuffs under "Notes". These is not a must, but IMO can be done.
One more comment, "For Hindus, the pass reduces the journey time to Mansarovar lake from 15 days to two days.The Tibetans on the Indian side can now easily go to Potala Palace in Lhasa to offer prayers." But at the end, "Tourists will not be allowed to cross the border via Nathu La pass till 2012." And also, in the caption of Rumtek's photo, "Pilgrims from Tibet may be able to make a pilgrimage to the Rumtek monastery". So, is there any specific arrangement for pilgrims for the time being (till 2012)? Pilgrims are also tourists, right?
Yet another comment. I've been to Kalimpong and remember being shown by some guide "oi je Nathu La" (There is Nathu La!) The image "The Nathu La Pass as seen from the town of Kalimpong" - are you sure that's Nathu La? I mean which one? There are many such rugged mountains that can be seen from Kalimpong. Well, I just hope someone does not raise this question in FAC :)
In reply, Ambuj wrote me this. So, can we have another FAC very soon :) Regards.-- Dwaipayan ( talk) 15:12, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Sir, First the source was cited with two university papers. One for the number of worship centers(followers) and another for it as a seperate religion from leading Universities. Fistly the citations was removed then the mentioning. Also please see the talk page.
The questions asked by Parthi was answerd (also cited with source) by me many times before to him. But some how he is not understanding. In every his reverts, of my edits I was made to remember the citions myself once cited to stop him.
Also, thanks - Paul 09:50, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
Hi! After some talks with Ambuj, I am messaging you. Following are some points on the article (copies from Ambuj's talk page):
Some observations: What are the last two entries under "Notes" doing? I mean they are not specifically cited. If they are not specifically cited, those two can be moved under "References", while rest of the stuffs under "Notes". These is not a must, but IMO can be done.
One more comment, "For Hindus, the pass reduces the journey time to Mansarovar lake from 15 days to two days.The Tibetans on the Indian side can now easily go to Potala Palace in Lhasa to offer prayers." But at the end, "Tourists will not be allowed to cross the border via Nathu La pass till 2012." And also, in the caption of Rumtek's photo, "Pilgrims from Tibet may be able to make a pilgrimage to the Rumtek monastery". So, is there any specific arrangement for pilgrims for the time being (till 2012)? Pilgrims are also tourists, right?
Yet another comment. I've been to Kalimpong and remember being shown by some guide "oi je Nathu La" (There is Nathu La!) The image "The Nathu La Pass as seen from the town of Kalimpong" - are you sure that's Nathu La? I mean which one? There are many such rugged mountains that can be seen from Kalimpong. Well, I just hope someone does not raise this question in FAC :)
In reply, Ambuj wrote me this. So, can we have another FAC very soon :) Regards.-- Dwaipayan ( talk) 15:12, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
Pls check my comments at the Peer Review. The infobox need to be changed. Amartyabag 10:35, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
Hi. Working on Sarabhai led me to creating Satellite Instructional Television Experiment. Now I think I have enough material to make this an FA too! - Aksi_great ( talk) 10:52, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
Hi, I saw your post on the Indian military history project. A lot of the battles of the 1971 War could use maps if you'd like to try that? -- AW 17:40, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Graeme Smith was not the one I was thinking of, but you can have it if you can provide a citation. -- ALoan (Talk) 18:33, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
