sources to support these views, hence there is also a 1 (d) issue: The neutrality of this view is debatable. A few Keralite groups are credited to have formed the language of the state. This has to be clearly sourced by reputed scholars. 1 (a) issue with the term "Early contacts with Europeans". This looks pretty misplaced, because Romans and Greeks, which are mentioned earlier, are also Europeans. 1 (c) Original research at the last sentence, which says, that it is a "unique" feature of the state. The sources, which are provided, don't state that. Also there is no mention in the lead, that Kerala became a very successful tourist center, which contributes to Kerala's economy in a big way. An inclusion is not supported by the main contributors.

have not found the way to the article, which I strongly regret, because this was the early history site of Kerala. A reference was made in the lead section, but the history section is completely empty. Early contacts with Babylon and ancient Egypts are not mentioned. Also the first two paragraphs are

Some parts are OK, while others are inadequate. There are still unsourced and vague swaths of text, dead links that prevent verification, conversions missing, an external link section that could be pruned. I found the Climate section one of the more disappointing parts of the article. There was very

1 (c) issue at the first paragraph, since Kerala is not bordered by the Arabian sea in the east, but the Laccadive Sea. 1 (a) and 1 (c) poorly written summary of the history in the lead section. There is only one primary source, which seems to be a very brief and vage one. There should be more clear

little substance, only random stats ("Daily average high 36.7 °C; low 19.8 °C." is not even a sentence!); there was no flow at all to the section. Parts of the article need updating (why do we care about the 2005–2006 budget). By no means bad, but not FA standard.
327:. However, if you go there it says nothing about that being the highest, nor does it say 97%. The text of the article should also make clear whether the figure, if correct, is adult or child literacy. The figure in the source is 89.9% for ages 6+. 134:
1 (a)/4 These sections should be merged into one "Politics" section, since the content in Politics is really small. Generally there should be more information about the history in Kerala politics. Then the section could stay divided.
322:
some citations still needed and some statements don't match up with the sources given. For example, it says "Kerala has one of the highest literacy rates (97.0%) among Indian states", which is sourced to

since I nominated the article, more and more issues appeared to the surface. At the current state, the quality of Kerala fails to meet the requirements to be excellent. --

There are 17 malayalam channels which makes the countries maximum number in regional language.

1 (a)/4 The city box seems to be too large. A normal box on the right side would be better.
