 * Symbol question.svg This article is new enough and long enough. The image is in the public domain, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. However I am confused. The article title is "Savadatti fort" but there is various mention of "Saundatti". Is that the same place? If so, could you put an explanation in the article, and then be consistent with whichever one you use, including the image captions. The article also mentions "the Savadatti town". Why is "the" included here? It is not usual to have a definite article before a town name. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:02, 29 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the review. The obvious error, an oversight, is corrected. The fort is located in Saundatti, which has several other names such as Savadatti, Sugandavarti, Savandavatti, Savadhavatti meaning fragrant city. I have mentioned these in the text with a ref. I hope it clarifies the issue. Nvvchar . 09:26, 30 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Symbol confirmed.svg Approving ALT1 which has an inline citation. Striking the original hook because there seem to be two alternative dates given in the article for the fort construction. The image is of little relevance to this hook. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:32, 30 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg I did a copyedit on the article to polish the grammar. I added a "from what?" tag to the distance measurement in the first line under "Geography". About the hook fact, how do you get "ornamental sculptures" from the source which is talking about geometrical carvings or engravings? Yoninah (talk) 20:22, 7 June 2016 (UTC)


 * I have slightly modified the hook as ALT2. Nvvchar . 00:52, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

ALT2:... that in the Savadatti fort (pictured), the inner wall of the Kadisiddeshwara Temple has a row of more than 200 carvings in geometric designs?
 * thank you. I suggest tweaking the hook this way:
 * ALT3: ... ... that the inner wall of the Kadisiddeshwara Temple in the Savadatti fort (pictured) features a row of more than 200 carvings in geometric designs? Yoninah (talk) 06:19, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
 * There is still a "from what" template under Geography. The article says, Located in the Savadatti town, 600 feet (180 m) away on its western part. What does that mean? Is it in Savadatti, or at a distance from it? Yoninah (talk) 06:19, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the review. I have deleted the figure 600 ft but retained "on its western part" as it is located on the western part of the Savadatti town, and fixed a reference. Nvvchar . 12:32, 9 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Thank you. Everything looks good. I suggest using ALT3, but the promoter can decide between ALT2 and ALT3. Restoring tick per Cwmhiraeth's review. Yoninah (talk) 17:06, 9 June 2016 (UTC)
