:Well, speaking as a naif, is not the subtext to this that India would like the location of the Buddha's upbringing to be in India at Piprahwa rather than in Nepal, a little to the North? If that is the case and that is Piprahwa's claim to fame, wouldn't it simply be more straightforward to state this in the opening paragraph? --[[Special:Contributions/50.68.134.51|50.68.134.51]] ([[User talk:50.68.134.51|talk]]) 19:20, 12 May 2017 (UTC) |

What is this article about?
This article is not much use and it is in need of radical reorganisation. Is it about a site? Is it about the finds from the site? Is it about an alleged hoax? The uninformed reader will come to this piece and think they have entered the middle of an argument. This is not what WIKIPEDIA is about, read soapbox and other guideline.Intervention is in the cards at some point, but opening up discussion here is a good idea. --Shirazibustan (talk) 13:46, 12 June 2013 (UTC)Shirazibustan
This article discusses clearly Piprahwa village and more importantly its Stupa. Yes, there is a discussion about the Piprahwa find (that is what history is like sometimes) and its authenticity as an important historical monument. People may wish to add more description about the historical Stupa itself (i.e. facts)and I will do, but mere description of a place is not what a place or information is simply about - that would be naive.
