Do you think, that when you go to sites like Wikipedia, that there is so little compared to others on Hinduism and India because it hasn't created any "contreversies"?

I don't think that's the reason why. Do you really need controversy to create academic interest? It shouldn't be that case.
India hasn't exactly been a player in the global affairs scene, with the exception of the ongoing Pakistan-India conflict and the China-India conflict from a few decades ago. It's mostly focused on its own growth as a nation. Hinduism is similar in that followers haven't really raised their voice, whether positively or negatively, they just sort of let everyone be.

First of all even 90% of Hindus themselves do not understand the ancient teachings. Most of them and others believe Hinduism to be a religion full of different Gods and Godesses with complex rituals for each of them.
The fact that India or Hindus have not created controversies could be a factor as well.
At such it is no suprise that you would not find much information on Hinduism or India in general informative sites such as Wikipedia.

Why? Do you think that Hindus should make controversies which will result in dirtying the name of religion more! Because already people of the world have made lots of controversies in the world to cause disinfect to name of religion regardless of religion. Fact is it have happened always! Why they just don't understand it's all simple, in all religions, it's easy and it's BE GOOD, LIVE GOOD, TREAT OTHERS THE WAY YOU EXPECT TO BE, FOREVER SAY NO TO BAD AND EVIL! all religions say that, then why people still can't understand so easy stuff and can't understand that since no religion is bad and the people who make other people go fight on name of religion are doing it for their own purposes? Anyways, is it that you think that controversies happening is normal? Is corrupting the Divine names for one's personal usage and intentions is normal? I for sure don't and hope the same for the majority of people.
