Copy edit (July 2008)[edit]

Hi all! I just completed a copy edit of the article (phew!), and added some tags. Areas for improvement are in all those sections I tagged. Please feel free to drop a message at my talk page if you need help or just want to say hi!-Samuel Tan 11:14, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

there is still some work to be done. ShivNarayanan (talk) 03: 21, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Milhist rating[edit]

The Military History project has defined criteria for B class ratings (there's a link in the template). So, although this article has plenty of info, because there are no inline citations to demonstrate veracity by showing sources, it fails one of Milhist's criteria.

Hi, Vellore fort is one of the most grandiose forts built in Granite in India. However, to claim that it is the only fort built in STONE is sheer ignorance. Check OUt Purana Quila, Red Fort, Agra Fort, Mehrangarh Fort (Jodhpur), Golconda Fort, Chittorgarh Fort, to name just a few out of the hundreds of Stone Forts in India!!!
