[edit] NPOV tag

I added the POV tag because this article contains information that is written as though the article is a publicity piece- "cow protection program that provides love and care to our substabtial bovine population" "spreading the teachings of Krsna Consciousness in many progressive and exciting fashions" "The Palace became a beacon of Krsna consciousness" etc.

The article is definitely unencyclopedic and promotional in its present form. If there are no objections I will start rephrasing it tomorrow towards a NPOV. Rumiton (talk) 10:19, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Started today. A couple of statements require a specific reference and page number. Rumiton (talk) 10:39, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Spelling

Shouldn't this be moved to New Vrindaban? Badagnani (talk) 20:03, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Yes. Done. Badagnani (talk) 20:05, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Krishna 5000 years ago

Thank you Henry for making the ref more neutral, but now the word advent used as a verb gives me pause. I can't find it in my Oxford. If this is, as I suspect, part of the house vocabulary of ISKCON it should probably be replaced by something more English and encyclopedic. Thanks. Rumiton (talk) 11:10, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
