Sources and corrections

How information is sourced and corrected.

Administrative geography and community information are different data layers and are never treated as proof of religious population.

Administrative geography

State, union territory and district names are based on India’s Local Government Directory. An administrative location existing does not establish the presence of any religious community.

Community listings

Institution, shrine and local-community details may come from an official organization, government or waqf record, a public institutional page, a community contribution or direct local confirmation. Social and video sources are leads, not automatic proof.

Corrections

Use “Suggest an update” on a listing or submit a concern. Include the affected page, the change requested and a source when one exists. Material edits retain a private change history.

Duplicates and disputed information

Possible duplicates are held for comparison and may be merged. Disputed personal contact or location information may be hidden while it is assessed.
