In copyediting this section to replace spaces removed by a vandal, I came across the following: "His hair was matted and was decorated by a crescent moon and Ganga." What is the "ganga"? Not the river, I suppose. Images of Shiva seem to show the moon and a cobra, and not the river; however, the images I've located do not show the five-faced Shiva. I am leaving the passage with the link ganga, knowing that it is probably very wrong. Would a subject editor kindly step in and make some sense here? Thank you.--Quisqualis (talk) 20:30, 9 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
And if there then where is vaikunth?? Where is kailash ?? As we all know bhrama was born out of a lotus flower appeared from Vishnu's navel. It is also said that after churning ocean the earth had appeared only. And why will Godness Bhuvaneshvari will be their with her consort?? Then who is the primary and all mighty???

The link you provide returns "not found". It is not unusual for deities to have variant forms. It is usual for members of one sect to repeatedly change the descriptions used by members of other sects. Skyerise (talk) 20:42, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Also, you should not be using religious texts as sources. Material should be sourced to academic books, journal articles, and other third-party sources. Please provide proper reliable sources in your arguments. Other texts may have different descriptions, we need a third party overview to know what's what.

I am very well aware about the context of different sects but I'm saying about certain common things such as iconography or attribute which isn't much argued over, Why not religious text to be used, is that unreliable? The link I gave was clearly the primary sources-the Direct author's translation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 106.216.117.33 (talk) 20:52, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Please provide third-party sources as required. Religious texts should not be used as sources. Third-party sources regularly quote them and then elaborate on their origins, meanings, historical and spiritual context, etc. Please do not remove cited material, even if you think it is wrong, without getting agreement to remove it on the talk page. This is a collaborative project. And please sign your comments when you post. I suggest you create an account, as you reveal personal information by editing as an IP (where you live, in particular).
