  • Replace 'Chola' (சோள) which means the name of an eatable grain,

with 'Chozha' (சோழ) that means the name of a king and/or his dynasty.Helppublic (talk) 09:17, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Milhist and ships assessment

See the B-class FAQ for more information about passing B1. The article is close as is but needs just a few more inline citations. At least one citation per section and citations for any direct quotes or potentially controversial statements. --Brad (talk) 02:51, 28 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Need help To get this page UP....

Hello Taprobanus,

thanks for polishing this article and moving this into article space. but, its been nearly 9 months since I asked some help over at people from Project Tamil to help me write some name and details in Tamil script, and Still no action...

If you know how to add tamil script you can make this article richer. I use A transliteration software which incidentally uses another codepage and just leaves some junk if copied.

Unfortunately, My tamil tying skills are not good o allow me to type in tamil ina US QWERTY Keyboard... Any help in this regard is highly welcome...

This article need neutrality and reality check

This article sounds like written by Tamil chauvinist, over glorifying Chola navy conquest etc. Crediting Chola naval invasion as the key factor behind the adoption of Hindu-Buddhist influence into Indonesian culture (Indianized kingdoms) is just way too much; undermining centuries of peaceful contacts, trade and infusion of Dharmic influences upon Southeast Asia, and focussed upon the warmongering sea pirates from Indian southern coast. Indonesian already adopted many aspects of Indian Hindu-Buddhist influence far earlier, not because of Chola raid. And many source has mentioned that it was Chola that attracted to the prestige and wealth of Srivijaya that motivated Chola to launched raids, plunder and piracy as far as Southeast Asia.Gunkarta (talk) 17:09, 24 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please get rid of your inferiority complex. Nobody has suggested here that your country adopted Indian culture only because of Chola raid, but they certainly were the foremost among various South Indian kingdoms including the Pallavas and the Cheras who not only brought Hinduism to SEA, but also were tolerant to Buddhism. The idea of Greater India would cease to exist if not for the Chola empire's contribution. You need to be a bit open-minded to recognize that. No one can deny the preponderance of Tamils among Indian-SEA communities, particularly the Malaysian and Singaporean Indian diaspora. "Centuries of infusion of Dharmic influences before the Cholas"? That's utter bosh, and you know it. Don't refer to discredited sources. This is Wikipedia, and not some Suharto-era Indonesian newspaper. And by the way, just so you know, Tamil country, as a matter of fact, willy-nilly, predates present-day India. Chippy pest (talk) 11:18, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Major Overhaul required

I am currently in the process of overhauling this page significantly, with the hope that it can be improved in grammar and content. Specifically, contextual information needs to be provided, better sources and citations (to prevent multiple duplicated citations), and a more intuitive page organization. The language is a mess, and I do agree somewhat that parts of the language seem overly florid and fawning, and needs toning down. Any help is welcome.
