| I removed the picture that seemed to detract from the storyline. No major material was deleted. The section on mythology was moved to the section after the Tantra and the Bengal Tradition. It was a mere reordering of the text, no more. | |||

| The Goddess Kali is a complex deity. In villages of North Sri Lanka and in Nepal she is often viewed in an un-iconic form without the elaborate iconography that the picture you posted depicts. She is seen as pure power that shatters all limitations that confront the devotee - be they mundane or spiritual. Interesting, the bandit queen - Phulan Devi who belonged to a scheduled caste always sought the blessings of the Goddess. So did the 'robber tribe' called the thuggees in the ravines of Chambal. | |||

| The picture you had uploaded incidentally was grotesque, hideous and would be seen as demonic by a casual non-Hindu who reads the article.

The Bengal school of iconography i.e. the two eyes with the tilak on the forehead stands out. Or the south-Indian Bhadrakali i.e. of Kali emerging from the fire. | |||

| First, I didn’t upload the picture to which you are referring, but I didn’t see a problem with it – Kali is “grotesque.” And, if you are going to remove a picture that’s fine, just make sure you replace it. Furthermore, this article deals with the issue of the pleasant vs. unsettling aesthetics within the history of Kali. Your mentioning of non-Hindus misinterpreting this goddess only implies that you think non-Hindus wouldn’t take the time to read this article -- superiority complex? | |||

| It’s interesting to me how much I hear my fellow countrymen whine about the “Latinization” of Indic culture, and then (when presented it in its raw, intended form) they whine again that it may be offensive and needs to be whitewashed! There are no more pure cultures in this world my friend -- the Hotr & Udgatr priests, they all have cell-phones now. What we do have though is a society of individuals who pick and choose (from a vast warehouse of human history) those cultural traits which best suit their ever-changing needs.

| ==Disambiguation link notification for November 16== | |||
| The role Misplaced Pages plays in all of this is that it is part of the warehouse I referred to before. And, unlike the people who use it, it can (and should) maintain its cultural purity -- this is Misplaced Pages not Myspace. So, if an article contains something that is factual yet hard for you to stomach, tough. Now, I apologize for my harsh rhetoric sir and I mean you no harm or disrespect. I’m going to upload a picture from my last trip to Dakshineswar. It’s pleasant and includes lots of flowers. I’m also going to include Kali’s yantra to strengthen the presentation. But, it’s on you now to make amends with Ma, as to why you took issue with her naked, ego-threatening side. | |||

| The picture put up by Ghostexorcist is hardly the most common depiction of Kali. I would like to know the source of the picture. It appears to be from a Steven Spielberg track! The picture placed in the sub-section "Popular Form of Kali" is far more in use. I am unable to upload that. But would that not be more in keeping with how contemporary devotee views the Goddess? | |||
| Hi Diannaa | |||
| I note that the South Indian/Sri Lankan concept of Bhadra Kali (or the auspicious Kali) finds no mention in the current iconography or text. That too forms part of the broader overview of the worship of the Goddess. | |||

| Let me first grasp the technology and 'rules' before I return to the debate. Its time out for me now. Thank you for your vote of confidence :-) | |||

Disambiguation link notification for November 16
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Tamil calendar, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Pongal (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Copying within Misplaced Pages requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages. It appears that you copied or moved text from Tamil calendar into Puthandu. While you are welcome to re-use Misplaced Pages's content, here or elsewhere, Misplaced Pages's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Misplaced Pages, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from ]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Misplaced Pages:Copying within Misplaced Pages. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — 🎆 Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 14:04, 1 January 2020 (UTC)
