A fact from Morya Gosavi appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 25 January 2010 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that seven generations of Morya Gosavi(pictured) – a prominent saint of the GanapatyaHindu sect – were worshipped as incarnations of the god Ganesha, and his tomb still attracts many Ganesha devotees?
(a) it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline;
(b) reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose);[2] and
"Morya took sanjeevan samadhi" ---> "Morya also took sanjeevan samadhi"
"Dev spelt also as Deva or Deo (god)" ---> "Deva" (delinked)
Replace Dev with Deva at all other usages.
"impressed by the latter's "miracle" of changing into jasmine flowers the piece of beef sent by the former" ---> "impressed by the latter's "miracle" of changing a piece of beef sent by the former into jasmine flowers" (link beef)
"is a prominent saint of the Hindu Ganapatya sect, which considers the elephant-faced god Ganesha as the Supreme Being. Morya Gosavi is considered the chief spiritual progenitor of the Ganapatyas and described as the "most famous devotee" of Ganesha." - All of this needs to be mentioned in the sections.
I am talking about the lead - "The lifetime of Morya Gosavi is unknown".
The source says that his father was Bhat Shaligram and Vaman Narayan was his father's friend.
Mention Sidhdha Yogiraj.
The first story (He was thrown out of the house by his father ... 50 miles (80 km) away from Morgaon" is from Trans. Bom. Lit. Soc. III. 69; Murray's Handbook, 178-179. Lord Valentia (Travels, II. 152-158).
^ Compliance with other aspects of the Manual of Style, or the Manual of Style mainpage or subpages of the guides listed, is not required for good articles.
^This requirement is significantly weaker than the "comprehensiveness" required of featured articles; it allows shorter articles, articles that do not cover every major fact or detail, and overviews of large topics.
^Vandalism reversions, proposals to split or merge content, good faith improvements to the page (such as copy editing), and changes based on reviewers' suggestions do not apply. Nominations for articles that are unstable because of unconstructive editing should be placed on hold.
^Other media, such as video and sound clips, are also covered by this criterion.
^The presence of images is not, in itself, a requirement. However, if images (or other media) with acceptable copyright status are appropriate and readily available, then some such images should be provided.
