 * Thanks Bluerasberry! Your welcome is helpful and, uh, quite welcome. I am a professional scholar of Sanskrit and Indian religions. As you probably know, not only the Tantra page but nearly all the Hinduism-related pages are a real mess compared to Wikipedia's standards for (say) science articles. I have avoided a clean-up project for years, but now I am finally beginning it, little by little. Jnananetra (talk) 06:27, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I am not surprised to meet a scholar of Indian religions here but I am surprised to find one with proficiency in Wikipedia's markup and who does not come onto this website violating copyright. Your summaries of your sources seemed great - you wrote those yourself without copying, right? If so, you do good work. If not, you still obviously have a lot of insight and I would love to help you. I mostly edit articles related to health and human rights in India. I also work with some Indian researchers in Varanasi, even though I myself live in Seattle. If you need any help with anything or can think of a mutual collaboration project then get in touch with me.  Blue Rasberry    (talk)   14:22, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
