A nice page. Congrats! --Bhadani 16:57, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Please include the fact that arrival of St Thomas is highly questionable. For a complete review of this subject visit hamsa.org

St Thomas
The discussion on St. Thomas shows a strong bias and cited a resource that had a clear adgenda. The text was changed to remove the bias and match the rest of the article.

Text on FEB 19 2010: "Mylapore is also recently 'claimed' to be associated with the legend of St. Thomas, who was supposedly to have been buried at a place called Mylapore. But this theory was disputed by Vatican and it declared that St.Thomas was buried in Vatican. A short biography of St.Thomas supposedly mentions a six year long association of the Apostle with Mylapore. But 'The Myth of St.Thomas' by Koenraad Elst postulates that St.Thomas might have never visited Mylapore and Malabar was the only place to be visited by him."

Changed text: "Christians regard Mylapore as the original burial site of St. Thomas the Apostle, before his body was moved to Edessa.[10] The San Thome Basilica stands on this site. [11]"

Religious issues are inherently controversial. Let us limit ourselves to STATING what a certain religious group believes, and not write endless arguments for or against a religious view. An encyclopedia's purpose is to STATE information, anything else makes the article appear unprofessional.

Strongly object to the St Thomas martyrdom reference. The sources quoted are just PoV and do not offer proof. There is no archaeological record of Christianity in TN before the 16th century — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.206.115.236 (talk) 13:10, 20 September 2016 (UTC)

Thiruvalluvar
I have a similar opinion here about arguing as I did with the St Thomas section. I made some changes but, I would appreciate it if someone would verify it. I know more about the subject of St Thomas.

Text removed: "although this claim is disputed . "

Statements "it is said" or "(a certain group) regards/believes" establish that the subject is controversial and not accepted by all. No further arguments are necessary. JNG71886 (talk) 04:50, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Temple section needs clearing up
While going through the rest of the page, I didn't edit the temple part as I am not that well informed about it. A lot of it is lacking in neutral POV (as an example, while Kapaleeshwarar is very impressive I think it is a bit too far to say 'one of the most important in the world', given the sheer number of other significant temples found in Tamil Nadu). Needs an expert to have a look over it. Juskei (talk) 17:29, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
