Garbha Upanishad
[edit]- ...
that Paul Deussen et al, consider the Garbha Upanishad's text on garbha or human embryo (pictured) as a treatise on physiology and medicine?
Created by Nvvchar (talk). Self-nominated at 15:48, 24 June 2015 (UTC).
The article is new enough as at the time of submission, long enough but I really don't find the hook interesting enough (although the hook fact is accurate and cited with an inline citation in the article) perhaps an alternative hook should be provided. I also observed a close paraphrase from this website. Wikic¤l¤gyt@lk to M£ 19:03, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
The hook is misleading and so is the part of the article dealing with it. I will make a few tweaks to both before putting this up for re-review. Gatoclass (talk) 05:20, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
- Comment: This article should never have been approved with any outstanding close paraphrasing (Wikicology, please take note), nor should an uninteresting hook been approved when an alternative could have been requested. The DYKtickAGF icon is an approval; it's like the regular tick except that it's saying that the hook source was unavailable for checking but is being accepted in good faith (or perhaps that many sources are unavailable even if the hook source is).

- BlueMoonset, Thanks for letting me know. I can never in anyway approve it. I mistakenly used the wrong icon. Wikic¤l¤gyt@lk to M£ 14:39, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
- The article has a lot of indic texts and English equivalents have been provided. I have copy edited some text related to the above referred reference. Some of the verbatim texts are now put under inverted commas as quotes. An ALT1 hook is now proposed:
- ALT1: ...
that according to the Garbha Upanishad (pictured garbha or womb) birth of the body with blindness or other physical disabilities is attributed to insensibility or the anxiousness of the mind during coitus?--Nvvchar. 06:40, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

- ALT2: ... that according to the Garbha Upanishad, the human foetus has knowledge of its past lives before birth? Gatoclass (talk) 06:13, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
