The Bengali book is missing the last verse. Please add that for Sarkarverse.

Also, in the context of our song documentation in Sarkarverse, the punctuation in the Bengali book is counterproductive, because it does not correspond with the Roman Samskrta or the English translation. So please adjust the lines and the punctuation so that it more closely corresponds to what appears on prabhatasamgiita.net, which is our main source for these Sarkarverse articles.

Lastly, we could - and probably should - add a citation for the Bengali book to our template for these song pages. Could you please help with that? --Abhidevananda (talk) 18:58, 7 December 2013 (MST)

  • a) I have updated content in the article and the user page. b) I have removed ending punctuations c) do you want ta template for the citation, it can be done with Template:Cite book TitoDutta 20:15, 7 December 2013 (MST)
Thanks for the updates... that makes my work a bit easier. Regarding the additional citation, I'd like to add it to all of the articles just after the first sentence of the lead. If you could create the <ref-/ref>, we can add it to all of our song articles. (When you get the time and if you have not done it already, it might be a good idea to check the earlier articles against what is written in the Bengali book.) --Abhidevananda (talk) 21:27, 7 December 2013 (MST)
  • Do you mean something like: <ref name="PRS Vol1">{{cite book|last=Sarkar|first=Prabhat Ranjan|title=Prabhat Samgiita Volum I|year=1994|publisher=Ananda Marga Pracaraka Samgha|page=N|editor=Acarya Vijayananda Avadhuta|language=Bengali}}</ref> ? Here the page number needs to be changed. Might be slightly off topic, I use paste email and paste email plus to quick paste (Firefox extensions). Paste Email Plus link. --TitoDutta 23:09, 7 December 2013 (MST)
Okay, I can work with that. Thanks. --Abhidevananda (talk) 00:18, 8 December 2013 (MST)

Best would be to have both the Devanagari (Hindi) script and the Arabic (Urdu) script. --Abhidevananda (talk) 19:03, 7 December 2013 (MST)

  • I can partially write in Devanagari, know nothing of Arabic. --TitoDutta 20:17, 7 December 2013 (MST)
No problem. I just omitted the Devanagari and Arabic columns for now. Eventually, someone will come along who can add that information. Eventually, someone will come along who can add information about the various melodies (musical styles) as well. --Abhidevananda (talk) 21:31, 7 December 2013 (MST)

Question/suggestion

I think that for Sarkarverse, it would be okay to just omit all of the punctuation in the Bangala script(mostly commas and apostrophes). I often disagree with the placement of the commas, and many times I cannot figure out the significance of the optional apostrophe (especially when it appears at the end of a word). If this punctuation is not necessary for correct Bangala script - and, as far as I know, it is not - then please leave it out. Up to now, I have been manually removing it when I correlate the Bangala script with the Roman script. The one exception to that rule is the hyphens. In general, they make sense, even though I make no effort to duplicate them in the Roman script. What do you think, Tito? --Abhidevananda (talk) 14:09, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

  • Okay,I'll do it. TitoDutta 18:58, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
