1. The text in parenthesis is not a translation of the text outside: "Sri Manthra Raja Rajini (the queen of Sri Vidya)". This might be a copy-paste error from the previous few words "Srividyaa (she who is Sri Vidya)". I could not find a translation for "Sri Manthra Raja Rajini". 2. Change "Prakashadiya, a Gupta ruler" to "Prakashaditya, a Gupta ruler". Soutrikm1 (talk) 13:41, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Incarnation (Query)

Do we require separate refs for the combined list of the incarnations when almost all the wikipages mentioned in the list have the refs attached (on their respective pages) which supports the claim of them being the incarnation of Lakshmi. Also, the incarnations mentioned in the list with no wikipages of their own, already have the supportive refs attached. Kridha (talk) 11:47, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. Other articles change. Skyerise (talk) 11:57, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Skyerise Thanks. In that case, I'll add the refs for every individual incarnation. Kridha (talk) 12:03, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good. They probably should be sorted either alphabetically or chronologically while you're at it. Skyerise (talk) 12:05, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Lakshmi Fanatics??

Huh.. I'm fed up with Durga being Lakshmi's form. Pranjal and Abhinav better If you read Scriptures. DURGA IS NOT LAKSHMI. VedicGyani (talk) 07:29, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
