	the picture with the caption "The secular fabric of India is in flames during Orissa communal violence" is a little out place. It puts the page out of whack. in like with other wikipages, perhaps it would be better to move it to the top right so the contents table can be where the picture is.

			{{sourcecheck\|checked=false}}
	And while we're at it: "The secular fabric of India is in flames during Orissa communal violence" This caption is a little POV too (not religious pov, but secular liberal POV). Why the editorial-like comment of the "secular fabric." Perhaps something like "Violence and burining during the ..."
	:I have changed it for now as I want to honor your opinion. However, would you not agree that communal violence damages India's secular nature? It is quite alright, if you use this caption at any place where communal violence occurs. The fact is that it does damamge India's secular fabric. It damages secularism period. Regardless from which camp. Violence against a group, especially against minority, is by definition against secularism. You might as well not refer India as a secular country. Do you see what I am stating? Regardless of what persuasion you and I are. I hope you are able to understand and accept the title. ] (]) 17:05, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
	Furthermore, what's the wording for the picture that says "Christian girl who suffered during August 2008 violence in Orissa" How do ''we'' know for certainty its a christian girl? Perhaps one can say "victim of communal rioting" (now, don't get me wrong, the other picture of the burned church is fair enough, there's a cross and it's proof as it is) ] (]) 16:03, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
