List of Buddhist temples
I received your email. You seem to be under the misimpression that "List of Buddhist temples" is intended to be a list of every Buddhist temple in the world. It is not, that would be impractical to the point of impossibility. It is intended as a directory of Wikipedia articles about Buddhist temples. A list article of this type is useless and unmanageable if it is too long. Every list has a criteria to maintain its usefulness. Past discussions on the article talk page noted that the list was becoming unmanageable and proposed that only temples with Wikipedia articles should be on the list.

If there is a notable temple not included that you have been trying to add and it keeps being removed, this is likely the reason. The correct way to proceed to add a notable temple for which there is not a Wikipedia article is to write the article about the temple first, then add the link to the list article.

Thanks for your understanding. Yworo (talk) 13:54, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
