19 July 2023

• 18:4618:46, 19 July 2023 diff hist −6 Tanjore District (Madras Presidency) →Demographics: Undid the "DVK" modification. The application of the name "DVK" in place of what is called "Pallar" in the cited colonial census, is anachronistic and historically hazardous. As the article "DVK" says, "DVK" is a de facto umbrella term, we can't be sure if what is called "Pallar" in the colonial census exactly matches today's "DVK" . Tag: Visual edit

But few Jaffna Tamils in the diaspora began to observe this celebration for many reasons. The claim of Aadi Perukku observance among the majority of Hindu Tamils around the world is not true and needs to be referenced to have credence. Tag: Visual edit

• 13:0713:07, 6 August 2022 diff hist −227 Karaikal district Removed lines on Sri Lankan Tamils due to lack of referrals. Rather, the facts (Dynamics of Indian Migration: Historical and Current Perspectives, S. Irudaya Rajan, Marie Percot, to name just one) show that Sri Lankan Tamils in the Karaikal district are often associated with illegal immigration or human trafficking towards developed countries. The few permanent residents are much less numerous than the North Indians or the Franco-Indians, for example. Tag: Visual edit
