Starting afresh
Hi! I am starting to write or edit this article as it contains a lot of errors such as the topic Climate is there twice. Also the names of tourist spots are mentioned twice. It will take some time but I assure that every thing i change will be cited properly and there won't be any copyright violation. If unknowingly I make any mistake, then please kindly correct it and if there is any big change you are doing, please atleast notify me 24 hours before so that I can discuss it with you. And help is always welcome. Vishal14K 11:30, 18 April 2012 (UTC) Vishal14k

Villages
I have taken the liberty of removing the list of villages in Hisar District, which seems to be better suited to that article than here. I am, however, preserving the list here for ease of access, if it is decided to put it back. Cheers, LindsayHello 16:51, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Not reliable sources
Went through a few of references. Following are the observations:


 * "The city of steel". Hisar Metal. Retrieved 23 May 2012. -- This source i snot reliable for the information that the city is known as "City of steel". This needs better source.
 * About Hisar". Guru Jambheshwar University. Retrieved 23 May 2012. -- I have doubt over the acceptance of this source as reliable. You may not need to remove it right now, but please llok for better source.
 * "Geography of Hisar". Haryana Online. Retrieved 23 May 2012. Not a reliable source.
 * Sarasvati and its tributaries". The Hindu Universe. Retrieved 23 May 2012. Not reliable.

 * Thanks for your suggestions. I will try my best to find more reliable citations and if I am not able to find one, I will inform you and you can take the final decision to keep the data or not. Regards, Vishal14K | Talk Vishal14K 19:41, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I have added more sources in the first observation and changed the sources of others except for one. Please take a look. If you think that the remaining one should be removed, I will agree but I have read that in the book "Hisar:Places and Personalities" which has already been mentioned in the section "Further reading".

dead link
Hi,

Reference note 4 is a dead link: http://www.mydigitalfc.com/news/ambala-kanpur-taken-counter-magnet-towns-492

I found it on the WayBack Machine but it doesn't mention Hisar: http://web.archive.org/web/20110722185706/http://www.mydigitalfc.com/news/ambala-kanpur-taken-counter-magnet-towns-492. Does it have the info you want? You can use the link if it does. MathewTownsend (talk) 17:18, 7 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Hello! If you look at the second line of the article, you will find "in addition to already existing Hissar, Bareilly, Kota, Gwalior and Patiala." Hissar is another spelling of Hisar. So, I think it can be used. Please let me know what you think. Thanks for mentioning. Regards, Vishal14K | Talk Vishal14K 18:27, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes! You are right. Sorry! MathewTownsend (talk) 18:47, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

comments
Hi,

Why is the importance of this to put it in the lede? - "The Ghaggar[11] and Drishadvati[12] rivers once flowed through the city." What happened to the rivers? MathewTownsend (talk) 23:24, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
 * p.s. Are you aware that File:Saina-nehwal.jpg is up for deletion? Also, there still are some dead links. I didn't mark them, but you can see them using this tool. MathewTownsend (talk) 00:51, 10 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Hello! I have removed the dead links except one, about Nehru Library, which is not a dead link and is working fine. And the failed connections may be temporarily down as I have checked them 2-3 days back but I will check them again after some days and if found still not working, I will find an alternative. And talking about Ghaggar and Drishadvati, they were once mighty rivers and have been mentioned in mythologies. But Ghaggar has now changed its path and Drishadvati is not extinct. However, if you think that they are not important, you can omit this sentence from the lead but keep it in Geography. Also I know that File:Saina-nehwal.jpg is up for deletion and I will change it in a week as soon as I get another image. Regards, Vishal14K | Talk Vishal14K 12:44, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Great that you fixed the links. (Thought you would, which is why I didn't mark them. I also noticed that the Nehru Library one was working.) Regarding the rivers, its not that I don't think they are important. But maybe a brief explanation could be added to explain their importance. I'm always interested in rivers in India, especially since their history is important to the history of India! MathewTownsend (talk) 17:26, 10 June 2012 (UTC)

Rename
Per WP:PLACEDAB, in general country names should be used for disambiguation rather than "generic" disambiguators like "city", so this article should probably be at Hisar, India.Le Deluge (talk) 13:53, 20 December 2016 (UTC)
