In the commentary section, Sridhara Swami is claimed to be an Advaitist. However, this wrong. Sridhar Swami is the opposite and is highly revered by the opponents of Advaita Vada and is respected as a Vaisnava. The great Caitanya Mahaprabhu greatly respected Sridhara Svami, and Caitanya was known for His highly inimical attitude towards the Advaitists for being crypto-Buddhist atheists. van Lustig (talk) 21:41, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
@Dāsānudāsa regarding your recent revert: Wikipedia uses official standards for transliterating words from other scripts. As it applies to Indian articles, MOS:INDIA § Non-English strings is the relevant policy, and it clearly states that all non-Sanskrit terms should use ISO 15919 (and Sanskrit ones should use IAST). Alternatively, in common names, the Hunterian transliteration can be used as well (as is conventional). In the former (in both ISO 15919 and IAST), श्री is Śrī, while in the latter, it is Shri. "Shree" is incorrect, as it would represent श्रे, which is not a word (and even if it was, not the one intended here). So the line where I made the edit using those transliterations interchangeably is incorrect. Getsnoopy (talk) 10:00, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
I'd be interested in some other points of view on thisFeel free to solicit more opinions, but until then, I'm going to remove that transliteration from there as it clearly violates MOS:INDIA and WP:UNDUE. Getsnoopy (talk) 09:02, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
