The article sources non-Hindu, non-Dharmic, non primary sources to claim Diwali which celebrates return of Sri Rama to Ayodhya is “good over evil, knowledge over ignorance” extremely vague usage of terms without the qualifier “Dharmic notion”.2600:1009:B185:6F92:C9D1:E25:E580:98C1 (talk)02:25, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
please correct the IPA (international phonetic alphabet) notation for "diwali"
The IPA for this article uses the letter "w", which in the international phonetic alphabet stands for the sound in the English word "well". My understanding is the word is pronounced "dee-VAHL-ee, so the IPA letter should be "v".66.65.179.12 (talk)21:40, 12 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
