Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Hindu temples in Gampaha District

A tag has been placed on Category:Hindu temples in Gampaha District indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 08:22, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What would be your suggestions to improve this. Thanks in advance. EnoughError (talk) 17:27, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@EnoughError: Half the article is devoted to controversies which is WP:UNDUE. It needs to be trimmed significantly. You don't need to have separate sections for each controversy either. Ideally the controversies shouldn't be contained in a separate section but included with the main biographical detail so that the article flows well - see WP:NOCRIT.

You have provided citations but placed them all at the end of paragraphs, this is a bad habit. There should be citations after each sentence. If you have used a single source for more than one piece of information that you added, you can repeat a citation - see WP:REPEATCITE.--Obi2canibe (talk) 21:04, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the clarification. Will fix this. EnoughError (talk) 10:01, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Case fixing edits are not pointless

My edits you reverted like here are meant to be constructive improvements, bringing the article style more in line with the recommendations of MOS:CAPS. If some of what I did there was not right, per guidelines, let me know, and we can discuss. Most of the changes (making table headings and entries in sentence case, not title case) are certainly per guideline, and I will be re-doing them, probably later today.
