[edit] Please re-work the article

Why is there a list of 'Places of Worship' in this article? Isn't such a list more appropriate in a tourist guide, even then just as an appendix? Is Palakkad really known for these places of worship, like, for example, Varanasi, Kanchipuram or Madurai are for theirs?

The fact is that there isn't much to be written about a small city like Palakkad. That doesn't mean that a better article cannot be put together without making lists of everything that exists there. It would be a good idea for whoever is behind the article, to take a look at articles on other Indian cities, learn how they have been written and then re-edit the Palakkad article.

Since the above comment was posted, someone has removed the list of places of worship and placed (only to re-post it elsewhere!) Then user (or users?) 'hopeyouths' has posted a paragraph about the CSI church. Hopeyouth, please remove that paragraph. Why is a list of places of worship relevant to the article about a small town which is not really famous for these places? And why does hopeyouths think that even if the other places of worship are not included, the CSI church should be included? This is not to speak against temples, churches of mosques. It is about what is relevant and what is not in such an article. Even the other list, i.e. places of interest, is not relevant. The information about the Palakkad fort and the Jain temple can be incorporated in the body of the article without making lists.

If there isn't much to write about Palakkad, let it be so. But please don't make lists of this and lists of that. 192.30.202.19 15:00, 28 October 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Places of worship in and near Palakkad town

Oppose - Places of worship in and near Palakkad town page need not be merged with this article of Palakkad. We can always include a synopsis about the topic in Palakkad page. A link to the main article can also be maintained in this page(as it is maintained now). - --Samaleks 13:48, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
