Section-wise Assessment
@ EpicSnek , there will be several corrections in the article. You can help with correcting them.
Lead Section
● The lead section is very well-written. There are no grammatical errors, sentence constrction errors, typos, etc.
● There is info like 'Karnataka is the sixth largest state', etc. etc. Could any recent reliable sources be provided just to back all such statements?
● Images are clear with no copyright violations
I have Edited the page to include data from the most recent census that had the information and I also revised some numbers which were not corresponding with the census data. EpicSnek Talk to me here 02:40, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
History
● Again, this is written very well
● Harihara is wrongly linked (this is the correct link). Please relink correctly.
● In the last line, about Vishveshwaraya, just mentioning him is enough. No need to write about birthplace, which readers can get to know by clinking on his link.
● I believe that the Vijaynagara dynasty was one of the most important dynasty, and everything flourished under Krishnadevaraya's rule. However, such an important ruler has not been mentioned anywhere in the article.
● File:Mallikarjuna and Kasivisvanatha temples at Pattadakal.jpg - Image is fine
I have removed the unnecessary information and added some information on [Krishnadevaraya]]. Please give me through feedback on the Krishnadevaraya section.EpicSnek Talk to me here 03:05, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
@EpicSnek , the section is very good. Thanks for the corrections. Kpddg (talk) 06:48, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
● One more thing, Kempegowda, the founder and builder of Bengaluru, Karnataka's capital, who is a widely celebrated figure, has not been mentioned as well.
I have added Kempe Gowda I. EpicSnek Talk to me here 03:21, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
Geography
● Written well; broad in its coverage
● Please provide recent sources for the last para which contains stats
● Image is good; could it be placed in a better position?
I have cited the forest survey of india in which such data is available. I have also moved the picture to reflect the page better. Kpddg Please give feedback on the page so I can improve it. ThanksEpicSnek Talk to me here 03:16, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
Great. However, there seems to be an error in reference 64. Are you able to fix that @EpicSnek ? Kpddg (talk) 06:50, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
I have resolved the issue of citation.EpicSnek Talk to me here 03:21, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
Climate
● Informative, well-written
● Could you confirm if the stats are up to date?
I can confirm that the stats show the most accurate information up to date. The stats given on the page are record statistics hence, they were added to the page.EpicSnek Talk to me here 03:21, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
Sub-divisions
● Good
Demographics
● First para is fine
● Most sources are from 2007. Needs update
● The city-population table is covering content
I have moved the city-population table and fixed some issues.EpicSnek Talk to me here 03:21, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
Government & Administration
● Shift the image to the right or left side, it will look better
● Though sources are old, content is still relevant
Economy
● This section needs a lot of updates. Most info is about 2007, including charts. Some are about 2015, which is okay. But the 2007 ones need to be updated to more recent levels.
I have added citations that contain newer info. The banking part is still accurate even though it older.
Transport
● Update info and references 106, 110, and 119
Have added citations. The work for new airpots is still ongoing.
Culture
● Well-written and broad in coverage
Religion & Festivals
● Fine
Language
● Great section
Education
● Update line with source 147
● Fine otherwise
Have added citations from 2011 and shortened the line so as to remove useless info.EpicSnek Talk to me here 03:21, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
Media
● Informative
Sports
● Great 👍
Flora & Fauna
● Broad & Informative
● But sources are old; kindly update
Removed unsubstantiated info added more citations to back up the info given. (Need Feedback)EpicSnek Talk to me here 03:21, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
Tourism
● Same problem: Info containing stats have old references, of 2007
● Images are good
