worked till her retirement to worked until her retirement
It is stated that From 1963 to 1964, she worked as the senior methodologist of the Russian language at the House of Soviet Culture in Delhi, but in the previous statement it says she started working again at the Institute of Ethnography of the Academy of Sciences of the Soviet Union where she worked till her retirement in 1998. How could she work in the Soviet Union and India at the same time?
She had labored to identify the common features... recommend change to In her research, she worked to identify common features...
During her life's later years, she became infatuated with the idea of a common ancestral homeland of the Indians and Slavs recommend changing to In the later part of her life, she fixated on the idea of a common ancestral homeland of the Indians and Slavs
Recommend putting The term Indo–Slav refers to "the remote ancestors of the Aryans and the Slavs" in a footnote. Currently seems abrupt in the article
Sam-2727, I have made the suggested changes for all the points exactly as you said, but for point 1, I have changed the sentence to "completed her graduation from the Leningrad State University with a specialty in Indology" because we have a sentence in the lead that reads "graduated from the Leningrad State University in the field of Indology". The reason for this move was that I was concerned that two similar sentences (if I change as suggested) could make up for a less good reading experience. However, if you believe that we should make the change as initially suggested by you above, kindly simply let me know and I would change that as soon as I read your reply.
Point 4: I had clarified in that in the lead by adding the sentence "She joined the Institute of Ethnography as an employee in 1952 and retired in 1998, however from 1963 to 1964, she had worked at the House of Soviet Culture in Delhi." but I had forgotten to do that in that section. Thanks for highlighting this. I have changed the sentence to "...she started working again at the Institute of Ethnography of the Academy of Sciences of the Soviet Union where she worked until her retirement in 1998. However, from 1963 to 1964, she had worked as the senior methodologist of the Russian language at the House of Soviet Culture in Delhi." The information is coming from a good source, so in my opinion, it should be very much safe to add the information with a "however" (but of course, only if the sentence's grammatical structure is acceptable (?)).
Sam-2727, we may discuss/change the lead at any time you want. Truth is, I struggle with the leads. And, you handle leads much better than me. So, you may also make any changes as required if they are there already there in your mind. Thanks, Мастер Шторм (talk) 12:34, 17 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
For the first sentence, either paraphrase the quote, or provide attribution, so according to Pandian, Guseva was of the opinion.... I would strongly recommend paraphrasing, since there isn't much of a need for a quote in this particular instance. Could be paraphrased to of the opinion that Jainism originated from before 500 B.C.
is poles apart to is very different
Recommend paraphrasing "rejects holiness of Veda", and opposes "the dogma that gods are the main objects of worship". Can do by rejected the concept that Veda was holy, and opposed the concept of Gods being the center of worship in Jainism.
Sam-2727, I have made the change exactly as suggested for point 2, however I wrote point 3 in the present tense as she was a modern era academic and Jainism (and Jains) on the present day also is very much holding on to what have been its core ideas for centuries. Is the edit for point 3 acceptable? Also, I have not added the last two words "in Jainism" as this would appear a bit confusing. This is their core belief and message to people/followers. We are mentioning their general view on the matter. And, for point 1, I have added one word to your suggested rephrasing — "long". This is done to do justice with the sentence from the source which uses the words "roots of Jainism are significantly more ancient than the middle of the first millennium B.C.". The added sentence reads "of the opinion that Jainism originated long before 500 BCE." Please also suggest if there can be a better choice of word(s). Please, kindly read the updated version of the section and suggest any changes, if required.
