Consistency needed for quotation format

Several quotations from sacred texts appear with different formats: single vs. double line spacing, italicized or not, amount of indentation. A simple edit would improve page quality IMHO.JeanEva Rose (talk) 21:03, 6 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I know, quotations should not be in italics, or any other make-up, but only {{quote|[quote]}}. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 06:15, 7 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Joshua Jonathan is correct; WP:MOS does not allow special formatting for quotations; the only exception is that very long quotations can be put into the quote template so that they are indented. Qwyrxian (talk) 12:07, 7 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate.. We need to use reliable sources, too. --Stfg (talk) 22:58, 12 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There is only one God in Hinduism. The Hindu word for God is Näräyaņa. Hindus conceive of, and represent, and worship God in numerous forms called deities (devatā).
