Foundation and structure

• Done by @Nvvchar

Contents

• Brahman should be linked in the earlier section, not here.

• Agreed. Done. All later duplinks removed.

• Is not the definition of Brahman getting repeated here?

• Yes. Removed repetition. The sources have been checked and moved to the sections above.

• In the 2nd line, italics have not been used properly.

• Corrected.

• Identify Griffith, McDaniel

• Added, with source/wikilink.

• "Begat" is an archaic word. Use modern spellings

• Yes. Rephrased after checking source.

• Simply say McDaniel.

• Done by @Nvvchar

• Duplinks: mantra, shakti, Saraswati

• Done by @Nvvchar

List of duplinks:

• Who is the Goddess? - Purusha, Prakrti

• The sources assert she is both. Duplinks removed.

• Devi stuti and iconography - Vedas,Rudras,Adityas,Soma,Prajapati, Indra

• Removed.

@Sainsf: I also removed all cites from the lead, something that required moving some text and all sources to the main article. So you will see two new sections Etymology and History. @Nvvchar: Please double check my edits and if I missed anything or duplinks, please fix. Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 17:36, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

• @Sainsf: The lead and the text have been slightly reorganized in view of shiting of refrences from the lead. Other wise all review issue have been addressed.Nvvchar. 01:04, 4 February 2016 (UTC)
