Comma necessary in "Forms and depictions" section[edit]
This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
There may be an issue with the article. Under the section "Forms and depictions", in the sub-section "Ascetic and householder" is the following sentence: "As a family man and householder, he has a wife, Parvati and two sons, Ganesha and Kartikeya". If I know my grammar right, there should be a comma after "Parvati", because, if there isn't any, it sounds like his wife's name is "Parvati and two sons". If someone could add this comma, that would be great. Thank you in advance, and have a nice day! 90.139.189.126 (talk) 15:10, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

About editing.[edit]
Dear @Redtigerxyz @Chronikhiles @Chariotrider555
Can you Plz edit it by removing unnecessary content text, This article promote lot of supremacy not as per given content source,
Remove content text such as in shiva Wiki description table remove
“God of time” and Lord of Yogis, The term Yoga or yogi is already mentioned in next text such as Patron of “Yoga” and meditation. Yoga is already discussed in text, so remove unnecessary words and also remove cosmic dancer and God of time, this is also unbiased word text, God of time refers to God Vishnu, why so much affiliation to God shiva Wikipedia article description, see everyone as equal.
why not added image for shiva, while adding old image for Vishnu Wikipedia page. So much hypocrisy for Vishnu . I didn't expect like this, see everyone as equal. And please accept my comments and kindly edit in good faith. 2409:4071:D41:5B96:5125:A2AF:5229:7BD (talk) 12:04, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
