Announcements
February 23, 2010: Hi everyone, I am proposing the development of a strategic policy regarding the authorship and maintenance of Buddhism pages, especially concerned with reducing the amount of time spent in long drawn out disagreements. How about contributing your thoughts? (

Farang Rak Tham, You are the first to even respond to my proposal, let alone contribute to it. It remains much as it was back in 2010 – nothing more than a proposal. (

Sure,
20040302, but where can I read it? I can't find it on your user page.--

Farang Rak Tham It wasn't written. I just made the suggestion that we develop one. I am really not sure that it would work anyway :-D (

20040302, still a good idea to revive this wikiproject a bit. I've noticed the Thai wikiproject is a lot more active than this wikiproject. We could start by activating the wikiproject's talk page and continue this dicussion over there.--

December 23, 2008: Hi everyone. I have implemented Turnkey presentation of WikiProject page (more details on the talk page). While this may not be perfectly done as yet, I hope it will encourage more efficient WikiProject operation in the future! All information that previously appeared on this page is archived at
this page; much should probably be integrated here. Please help to make the operations of this project as smooth and efficient as possible!

The project's encyclopedic articles page contains a listing of articles which can be found in reference sources on the topic of Buddhism, and can serve as a reasonable indicator as to what content regarding the topic wikipedia does and does not yet have.
・
Dhatu (Buddhism) - It's mentioned by the Buddha in the Aṅgulimālīya Sūtra with no clear definition.
Skandha has an section mentioning the Dhatus but not in the Buddha's context from the Aṅgulimālīya Sūtra.
