The article had a very chopped up appearance with large amounts of white space.
The article had a very chopped up appearance with large amounts of white space. I did not change any of the content text ... I simply re-located the two infoboxes and the map so as to obain a much more coherently formatted appearance.

Further Reading

I'm adding "Further Reading" to Bibliography. I hope it's alright. Nachiketa Adhikari 09:06, 22 December 2007 (CST)

eventually we'll have a long annotated bibliography with 100+ items subdvidided int ocategries. meanwhile we can use the "further reading" as a basic guide that belong an the main page. (And for now it's duplicated on the bibliog page) Richard Jensen 09:56, 28 February 2008 (CST)

Eliminated chopped up appearance by rearranging infoboxes and map

The article had a very chopped up appearance with large amounts of white space. I did not change any of the content text ... I simply re-located the two infoboxes and the map so as to obain a much more coherently formatted appearance.

The formatting might be further enhanced by moving the map to the geography section.

I also don't see what the small infobox template {{India}} adds to the article. In my opinion, it could be deleted or at least moved to the very bottom of the article. That is what was done in many Wikipedia articles which were faced with a profusion of such templates. - Milton Beychok 15:38, 30 April 2008 (CDT)
