== Rewrite == |

Hello. {{user|PrinceOfCanada}} approached me a few days ago to help settle the POV issues in the article by expanding it and improving the writing and sourcing. I have since watched the article and the discussions about the information, and I'm not particularly excited to step into a hornet's nest, but I believe that thorough research may often stave off edit wars. So, ever the optimist, I will give it a try. |

I am unfamiliar with this conflict. This may be advantageous, as I am approaching it with neutrality. However, it makes it a little more difficult for me to get caught up to speed. I noticed that at least one editor claims that some sources have been removed during the many reverts. If you would, please, list the sources that were used that you think should be in the article, and I can judge if they are reliable, or if I will use them. I will do some of my own research, as I have access to a university library, and I may neglect some of the sources previously used for stronger ones. |

In the past I have rewritten articles completely top to bottom. I don't know if I can do that with this one, but let me see. It will take me a bit to complete this, based on what I have read and where I am in my edits. It may take a couple weeks. I have ] for the rewrite. You can watch my progress, but I respectfully request that major revisions to the article sandbox be withheld until I ask for input. When I rewrite, it's a bit like sausage. It ain't too pretty until it looks pretty. That means that one view may be in the article until I can get to another view. Spelling and grammar mistakes may be seen, but I constantly copy edit my own stuff, so have faith. It will get there. |

There is a section called "History of Forced Conversions" in the article. It talks about the Portugese in ] and the British in India, neither of which have any connection to this article, which is about Religious Violence in ]. This seems more an attempt to vandalize the article and neutralize the topics on atrocities committed in Orissa by claiming atrocities elsewhere. Lets keep on topic shall we...this section shall be removed as it has no connection with the article. --] (]) 04:24, 28 June 2009 (UTC) |

This article reads like it was directly copied out of a Hindu extremist pamphlet. Someone with extensive knowledge of religious conflict in Orissa and someone who has no ideological stake in this needs to rewrite this to meet Misplaced Pages standards. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 05:43, 31 August 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

Subsection says that three Christians were arrested, but Maoists mailed odd letter. Need to connect the dots a bit better between Maoists and Christians IMO. Sounds irrational without that connection. ] (]) 03:20, 25 November 2011 (UTC) |

This is another section which has no connection to this article. Again the purpose seems to be here to weaken the article or neutralize any reports of atrocities in Orissa, by diverting attention to a nonsense section which has no connection to the article or the region of Orissa. This section shall be removed due to having no connection to this article.--Friedricer (talk) 04:29, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
I'm not sure if this section and the "Summary of the chain of events before the riots" were meant to be together or not, but the Summary section cites no sources and the "Vigorous Distortion" section seems to be an editorial and also lacks any citations. The Summary section should be updated with sources, while the "Distortion" section, due to its editorial nature, would probably be better of being removed unless citations can be provided.
