Bhāskara I was a good article nominee, but did not meet the good article criteria at the time. There are suggestions below for improving the article. Once these are addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake. Reviewed version: April 22, 2006 |
Apologies for my (self-corrected) mistake. I should have read the article more closely. I changed the comma to a decimal point (which was one of the first things that threw me) and I'll leave it to someone else to judge whether this becomes a good article. Cedars 17:59, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Failed GA nomination
Overall, the article is good, but it is seriously lacking in the Biography section. Also, the article loses encyclopedic tone in places, where it begins using rhetorical questions. An image wouldn't hurt either. If any those objections are addressed, it would easily be a GA. Titoxd(?!? - help us) 21:42, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
the allegorical representation of number 2 has been described as "wings" probably from the sanskrit word PAKSHA. this word in one sense means wings. But this has another meaning also. in fact that should be regarded as the correct one. the word "paksha" also means lunar fortnight. Since every month usually consists of 2 lunar fortnights, the bright and the dark, so one cannot think of a single lunar fortnight. they always come as twins symbolising the number 2 as the only meaning that can be derived out of the word.
