[edit] Proper use of categories & encyclopedic style
Welcome and thank you for your contributions to the encyclopedia. Just a couple of notes on points you may not fully understand. Category:Dual-language series of texts is for just what it says: dual-language series of texts. The Clay Sanskrit Library is such a series. Individual Sanskrit authors and works are not! Likewise, Budhasvamin belongs in Category:Sanskrit poets, not Category:Sanskrit texts. If you don't understand Wikipedia categories, you needn't add them; others will assign your new articles to appropriate categories. But, speaking of new articles, do check in on your article Bṛhatkathāślokasaṃgraha, which has attracted the valid objection, "This article or section is written like a personal reflection or essay and may require cleanup." The other recent articles may merit the same complaint. To learn about the proper style of an encyclopedia article, see the Wikipedia Manual of Style. Wareh (talk) 18:18, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
