In the Beatles movie Help the main theme was sacrificing one to Kaili! 2600:1702:33E0:2710:5082:686B:657E:28D6 (talk) 03:00, 23 February 2023 (UTC)

Comparative scholarship
Hello, thank you for expanding this page. It would be more appropriate to move theory about Possible Near Eastern influences to it's own section under "Comparative scholarship" as it is done for Sekhmet and Anat pages. Marvin H. Pope's theory is not widely received since not much has not been much published about this theory since 1970s, therefore Comparative scholarship would be more appropriate here instead of origins.117.198.116.86 (talk) 03:41, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Additionally, more recent scholarship on Kali on like - "Tantric Kali Secret Practices and Rituals By Daniel Odier" (2016), "Offering Flowers, Feeding Skulls By June McDaniel" (2004), "Encountering Kali In the Margins, at the Center, in the West By Jeffrey J. Kripal, Rachel Fell McDermott" (2003)- Do not make any such claims either or mention it. 117.198.116.86 (talk) 02:49, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Plus, it can be considered undue weight in Origins since it's not mainstream theory or widely accepted in recent scholarship and comes from single author from 1960s.117.198.116.86 (talk) 10:56, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I have moved it under Comparative scholarship section which is more appropriate for this topic and it is similar to what is present in Sekhmet and Anat pages.117.198.116.86 (talk) 02:57, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, I have no problem with that. Antiquistik (talk) 12:10, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

Kali ma photo update
I am an ardent Kali bhakt and would like to update the pic.

I also monitor this page closely to see if no one write anything bad about Maa. Kalimaa1857 (talk) 14:34, 12 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Per WP:LEADIMAGE, what image do you suggest? Per WP:Image use policy we can only use public domain/properly licensed images, so random pics found online are often useless in the WP-context. Commons has several that can be used, for example: Category:Paintings of Kali. WP:RNPOV and WP:CODI may be of help to you. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 14:54, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
 * This previous discussion Talk:Kali/Archive_1 settled on the 1770 image, but people have changed it since then. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 14:57, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
