On the layout

Would re-structuring the article into a 'History' and 'Modern' section (or something like that) comply with layout guidelines and be a good idea? KnowDeath (talk) 12:06, 16 May 2025 (UTC)

Fiji section balance

@Dunutubble What is your reason for [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Anti-Hindu_sentiment&diff=prev&oldid=1044368482 marking] the Fiji section as unbalanced? KnowDeath (talk) 08:02, 17 May 2025 (UTC)

Please add this to the sub-section about India: "On September 2, 2023, while addressing a conference organized in Tamil Nadu, Stalin made a controversial statement likening Sanatana Dharma to diseases like malaria and dengue. He emphasized that Sanatana Dharma should not merely be opposed but must be eradicated, claiming that it opposes social justice and equality. This remark was met with widespread outrage across the nation, with many interpreting it as a call for genocide. Political leaders from the INDIA bloc, notably the Chief Minister of West Bengal Mamata Banerjee, publicly distanced themselves from Stalin's remarks, expressing their disapproval.{{Cite news |last=Bureau |first=The Hindu |date=2023-09-02 |title=Sanatana is against social justice and has to be eradicated: Udhayanidhi |language=en-IN |work=The Hindu |url=https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/tamil-nadu/sanatana-is-against-social-justice-and-has-to-be-eradicated-udhayanidhi/article67264565.ece |access-date=2023-09-02 |issn=0971-751X}}{{Cite web |title="Respect People Of Tamil Nadu But...": Mamata Banerjee On 'Sanatana' Remark |url=https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/respect-people-of-tamil-nadu-but-mamata-banerjee-on-sanatanaa-dharma-row-4359099 |access-date=2024-09-28 |website=NDTV.com |archive-date=11 March 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240311000507/https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/respect-people-of-tamil-nadu-but-mamata-banerjee-on-sanatanaa-dharma-row-4359099 |url-status=live }}" It is copied from the wikipedia article about Udhayanidhi Stalin 2409:4085:8D42:7CB:2515:77B6:8326:B393 (talk) 07:57, 28 May 2025 (UTC)

:{{not done}}: The term "Sanatana Dharma" has many meanings. It is not clear that Stalin was referring to "Hindus" through his comment. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 10:53, 28 May 2025 (UTC)

:{{re|Kautilya3}} Sanatana Dharma and Hinduism are the same. Hindu is the Persian word for the residents of India (in the article on Hinduism you can see the sentence, " it has also been described by the modern term Sanātana Dharma"). Given Udayanidhi's anti-Hindu actions, he certainly is speaking about Hindus. If you are a DMK supporter, please let us know.-2405:201:D:4171:F8F9:7A0D:E26:2044 (talk) 16:58, 2 June 2025 (UTC)

:::WP:OR applies. Though you appear to believe that :Udhayanidhi Stalin was using Sanatana Dharma as a euphemism for Hinduism, we would need reliable sources that explicitly made the link between what he said and anti-Hindu beliefs. It is a bit tenuous.

::In British English, the word "borrow" can be used as a polite euphemism for theft. Nevertheless, the word borrow has another meaning, and the value of the euphemism in an institutional setting depends on the listener understanding both meanings.-- Toddy1 (talk) 19:34, 2 June 2025 (UTC)
