==What's needed is a portal==
This is worst financial/economic crisis since Great Depression. At first, I was going to suggest merging this article with sub-prime mortgage crisis one, but that page is getting pretty darn big which reflects the scope of the problem. Europe is also experiencing the real estate burst as well.
[[User:Golgo-13|Golgo-13]] ([[User talk:Golgo-13|talk]]) 05:24, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
:A portal would be useful, perhaps even a wikiproject. This matter, while difficult, is probably one of the most significant events of the 21st century. I'm quite disappointed with its treatment on the Main Page. [[User:Fred Bauder|Fred]] [[User talk:Fred Bauder|Talk]] 12:40, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
::Fred, you and your friends have made a good start on this but what I miss is more geographical perspective. Much of the article is based on the evolving situation in the United States. It is not easy to find information about Europe (including individual countries), Russia, China and the rest of Asia. Would it be useful to add separate chapters on these or perhaps even links to new articles? And how would a portal cope with this rapidly evolving situation?- [[User:Ipigott|Ipigott]] ([[User talk:Ipigott|talk]]) 07:15, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
::I think both a portal and a dedicated WikiProject are quite justified for this event. Perhaps a WikiProject first to consolidate manpower. __[[User:Meco|meco]] ([[User talk:Meco|talk]]) 22:03, 7 October 2008 (UTC)


India, as a colony of the [[British Empire]], used theatre as one of its instruments in protest. To resist, the British Government had to impose [[Dramatic Performance Act]] in 1876. From the last half of the 19th century, theatres in India experienced a boost in numbers and practice.
==Hourly changes==
This situation is changing hourly as the crisis has come to a head. [[User:Fred Bauder|Fred]] [[User talk:Fred Bauder|Talk]] 14:21, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


After [[independence]] in 1947, theatres spread throughout India as one of the means of [[entertainment]] and one of the means of [[death]].
== article ==


India, being a multi-cultural [[nation]], cannot be associated with a unique [[trend]] and feature in its theatres.
why does this incredibly re-hashed article about the sub-prime mortgage crisis need to exist?.I think the whole situation just encompasses the crisis itself....really odd to just use such a generalized tittle too...[[User:Rodrigue|Rodrigue]] ([[User talk:Rodrigue|talk]]) 06:09, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
:When the crisis began to affect the entire financial system, the emphasis needed to be changed to reflect that. This article is about a world wide financial crisis caused by the subprime mortgage crisis, not about the crisis itself. Detailed information about all the different sorts of mortgages, regulation of them, how and why they were securitized belongs there. What belongs here is information about the general financial crisis which resulted. [[User:Fred Bauder|Fred]] [[User talk:Fred Bauder|Talk]] 12:30, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
::What you call rehashing is a broad outline. The generalized title relates to the information that the liquidity crisis and bailout efforts to cope with it date to August 9, 2007. [[User:Fred Bauder|Fred]] [[User talk:Fred Bauder|Talk]] 12:42, 20 September 2008 (UTC)


Presently, major threats to Indian Theatre are the spread of [[television]] [[industry]] and spread of the [[film]]s produced in the [[Mumbai]] film industry. Lack of [[finance]] is another major trouble.
==Scope of the article==
Please see this quote, from ''The New York Times'' news analysis piece "But Will It Work?" [http://www.nytimes.com/2008/09/21/business/21econ.html?pagewanted=2]:


==History of Indian theatre==
"“What we’re looking at now is simply an amplified version of what we’ve been in since last August,” Mr. Bernstein added. “You’re witnessing a sudden death instead of a slow bleed.”
===Theatre in ancient India===
{{main|Sanskrit drama}}


[[Bharata]] wrote [[Natya Shastra]] (200 BC - 400 AD), a dissertation on the structure and purpose of theatre in society.
Jared Bernstein is a senior economist at the labor-oriented Economic Policy Institute


===Theatre in medieval India===
[[User:Fred Bauder|Fred]] [[User talk:Fred Bauder|Talk]] 09:45, 21 September 2008 (UTC)


===Theatre in India under British rule===
== Cause ==
===Indian theatre after Independence (1947-1992)===
===Contemporary (post-1992) Indian theatre===
===Improvization===
Improvization is a very new art form to India. Very few theatre groups and very few public performances have been done.


==Notable theatres in India in different Indian languages and regions==
:''was caused by the abolition of the [[uptick rule]] in July 2007''
* [[Bengali Theatre]]


==Notable people==
I removed this dubious claim; a multitude of causes have been cited for the crisis in press reports. -- [[User:Beland|Beland]] ([[User talk:Beland|talk]]) 06:06, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
===Ancient Age===
* [[Bharata]]
* [[Kalidasa]]


===Medieval age===
You are free to remove it but it is obvious it was the sole cause of the crisis, though I concede it is difficult to understand; furthermore arguing the media cites many causes does not negate it.
===Under British rule===
* [[Dinabandhu Mitra]]
* [[Michael Madhusudan Dutta]]
* [[Rabindranath Tagore]]


===After Independence (1947 onwards)===
I concede causes have many tributaries nonetheless had the Uptick Rule not been abolished on July 6th, shorters in finance stocks would have had to uptick and could not have shorted down banking stocks.

==Merge proposal==
===Indian street theatre===
The proposed merger is inappropriate as the liquidity crisis surfaced in August, 2007 and has different causes and dynamics than the oil crisis and the food crisis which have been lumped together with the financial crisis in [[economic crisis of 2008]].

*'''Oppose''' the proposed merger for now. -- [[User:Yellowdesk|Yellowdesk]] ([[User talk:Yellowdesk|talk]]) 03:07, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
*'''Oppose and differentiate''' these two could be very different articles, but they need names and leads which will fully differentiate them. 2008 article may be more properly called Economic cris'''E'''s of 2008, as it refers to many crises throughout the world. There are many financially centered articles which should be better linked and given a main article (probably here). The other article can act as a broader overview of economic issues throughout the world and their many causes. The titles of both articles are likely to change as events continue and become better understood. [[User:NJGW|NJGW]] ([[User talk:NJGW|talk]]) 03:21, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' From the current perspective, the subjects are different, although related, with shared causes. Each seems of significance to merit its own article. Future events may dictate differently. --[[User:Rye1967|Rye1967]] ([[User talk:Rye1967|talk]]) 11:48, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Comprising of 21 reputed Indian plays from 9 centres in 11 languages, presented over 14 days


This festival features traditional and contemporary plays, as well as adaptations of classical plays in several regional languages, English and Sanskrit)
*'''comment'''I think a merge with [[Liquidity crisis of September 2008]] is much more appropriate, since the majority of the article here is all about that month. The [[Economic crisis of 2008]] is just a way of deal with nitpickers who didn't want that article to be called the 2008 global recession. See the link below to comment on this further.

From Kerala we have the privilege of having Sopanam again with the maestro Kevalam Narayana Panikkar coming with a Malayalam play Otta Mulachi and a Sanskrit classic in Kalidas’s Malavikaagnimitram. Aamchi Mumbai and Marathi boast of a duet, being Vijay Mishra’s local Choukatali Vihir, while Saish Deshpande’s Waiting Room comes from Panaji, Goa. This may well have been three if Waman Kendre had not decided to do his own adaptation of Sophocles’s Oedipus Rex in Hindustani this time, tilted Vedhapashya! Other Hindustani plays are Ekjute’s Romeo & Juliet, & Not to forget the remembrable performance of '8 Ghante' by Aakar Kala Sangam directed by Suresh Bhardwaj,Devendra Raj Ankur’s Hum Tumse Pyar Karega Kaun, Dinesh Thakur’s Mitr, Sunil Shanbag’s take on Mumbai mill workers, Cotton 56, Polyester 84, Suresh Sharma’s Kaafka – Ek Adhyay, Sanjay Sahay’s take on Nikolai Gogol’s Inspector-General titled Jaanch Partal coming from Gaya in Bihar and, quite significantly for this festival, Prasanna’s very own interpretation of [[Mahakavi Bhavbhuti]]'s (also known as [[Bhavabhuti]] ) UIttara Ramacharitha.

Suren Thakar Mehul’s Mrutunjay is in Gujarati, Santanu Das’s Manush-Manushi in Bengali, Kewal Dhaliwal’s Loona in Punjabi and Chidambara Rao Jambhe’s Oh Lear in Kannada.

*'''Oppose, qualified.''' (if I have a say, not being a registered member). My reasoning is similar to Rye1967's. While causes are diverse and somewhat separate (there are common elements which contributed to all three), the current situation draws from each, in that each is escalating the others. At this point in time all three are interacting, and none can be resolved without taking into account the dynamics of the other two. Use this as the umbrella survey article, go into more detail in the others. -Tenebris <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/207.112.27.206|207.112.27.206]] ([[User talk:207.112.27.206|talk]]) 04:25, 30 September 2008 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

If there is no evident consensus for a merge, could the two templates be removed from the articles?

I agree with the just wait opinion (for months or years). The [[Economic crisis of 2008]] appears to cover the economy (or at least should due to its title) while this one appears to list fiscal and monetary events, and also appears to have better worldwide coverage. If they are not to be merged, I agree the leads in both articles need to better clarify the difference.

Forgive a newbie spouting off, but I'm wondering if perhaps the lead paragraph should be written differently. It begins by giving background, which is good but I think it belongs elsewhere. Perhaps the beginning should describe a bit more what this crisis is and what it has done.

Revision as of 17:07, 10 October 2008

India was invaded a number of times. This played a major role in shaping of Indian culture and heritage. The Medieval India experienced a grand fusion with the invaders from the middle-east.

India, as a colony of the British Empire, used theatre as one of its instruments in protest. To resist, the British Government had to impose Dramatic Performance Act in 1876. From the last half of the 19th century, theatres in India experienced a boost in numbers and practice.

After independence in 1947, theatres spread throughout India as one of the means of entertainment and one of the means of death.

India, being a multi-cultural nation, cannot be associated with a unique trend and feature in its theatres.

Presently, major threats to Indian Theatre are the spread of television industry and spread of the films produced in the Mumbai film industry. Lack of finance is another major trouble.
