Reliability Tier
3
Wikipedia's article on Hindu temple architecture, the lower tier reflecting a crowd sourced, continuously edited encyclopedia entry rather than a peer reviewed or institutional source. It is useful here for a well referenced general summary of regional styles and structural conventions, and is cited for corroborated factual detail rather than for interpretation.
Notes
Wikipedia's article on Hindu temple architecture, consulted 2026-08-11. A perpetually community-edited reference page rather than a peer-reviewed publication; used here only for its statement that most main features of the Hindu temple, and the theoretical texts prescribing them, were established by about the seventh century CE, a standard reference fact.
