Remove redirect

Why does "sindology" redirect to this article? Sindology is the study of burial shrouds. The redirect should be removed. Vereverde (talk) 04:31, 23 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. I came here to make the same comment, after some browsing related to the recent ENEA Shroud of Turin study. 70.109.140.122 (talk) 19:47, 23 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I added a short definition in place of the incorrect redirect. It's at least preferable to the redirect. 70.109.140.122 (talk) 15:50, 24 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

COI

There is an odd and slightly worrying conflict of interest in this article. It relies greatly on works published by the Institute of Sindhology, which has a vested interest right down the the level of having coined the very term Sindhology. Worse, at least some of the output of the IoS seems to be based on pseudo-history (see the IoS article) and there is a distinct impression in my mind of a walled garden.

It would be much better not to rely on IoS sources, I suspect, even though the IoS is effectively the authority on the subject because, well, it created the thing. - Sitush (talk) 22:49, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please also note that for a subject to pass WP:GNG it needs a bunch of independent sources. At present, there isn't even one. - Sitush (talk) 09:58, 27 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
