The text currently (16 July 2013) refers to "the picture above", stated to be taken in 1867. But the article contains no picture. Does someone want to update the text? Perhaps this issue arises from the revert mentioned below. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.131.141.62 (talk) 22:12, 16 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any citation for the claim that Jantar Mantar is derived from "Yantra Mandir"? Another version on the web is "Yantra Mantra", which is more internally consistent. "Mandir" getting corrupted seems unlikely. Mahoka 09:16, 2 February 2007 (UTC)ĞÁÑĚŜĤ ȘĦÁŘĻļö[reply]

The article has been reverted from a longer version to a stub! What is the reason? --Longhairandabeard 16:09, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Note: {{

The 1858 picture is not Jantar Mantar Observatory. It is actually Pir Ghaib observatory in Delhi Ridge. View a modern photo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Pir_Ghaib.JPG - Piyal Kundu — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.194.3.125 (talk) 09:31, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Should the title be changed to Jantar Mantar, New Delhi? New Delhi is the only city proper in the National Capital Territory of Delhi and this Jantar Mantar is located solely in the borders of New Delhi. Zaketo (talk) 01:14, 6 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
