When creating a new article it is recommended to follow the following pattern:
- If the article is about a foreign word (such as Antaḥkaraṇa) please provide the correct transliteration and writing system in the original language. In this example, Antaḥkaraṇa (devanāgarī: अन्तःकरण). If needed, you can briefly discuss the etymology of the term.
- Add a paragraph with a general description, before going into it in more depth.
- Provide quotes and references to support your writing
- At the end add a section for notes with the following format:
== Notes == <references/>
- Also add a section for Further Reading with the following format:
==Further reading==
