Bad Link: Just to bring to the attention of the editors that the link to the Indian Museum ( http://www.indianmuseumkolkata.org/ ) is a spam site or an expired domain name. The museum needs to claim it back. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.171.245.166 (talk) 01:57, 23 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Domain name has been re-claimed by the museum. Hence, the link has been added again. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.171.242.26 (talk) 04:29, 31 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Size

I went to the India museum, and it's not that big - certainly not the biggest in Asia (I also can't find this claim anywhere that isn't explicitly about this museum) can anyone explain in what way this is the biggest museum in Asia? 49.237.8.200 (talk) 06:13, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
