Nice.

BTW, how did you get it to turn up on the Main Page's Did You Know? thing?-- iFaqeer 03:32, Sep 16, 2004 (UTC)

There is no mention of other names of the language anywhere. Especially the word raikhtha is a very useful name for the pre-Urdu dialects and the language itself. Its meaning (a mix, mixture, mongrel) captures the character of it's origins and nature.-- iFaqeer 00:36, Sep 17, 2004 (UTC)

I felt article Islamic_literature is in bit of neglect so I added my note on talk page there, requesting to take note of Talk:Islamic_literature#Article_review. If possible requesting copy edit support. Suggestions for suitable reference sources at Talk:Islamic_literature is also welcome.

Posting message here too for neutrality sake

Thanks and greetings
