High Court (Calcutta, India) page 465.It is freely available on the web. In this case I thought it was essential to read the British Judgement. It is clear after reading this 1884 judgement that the British court considered only the customs(and varna) of specific regional Kayasthas and made their judgement on only certain particular Kayasthas of some regions. (It is explicitly mentioned in the judgement as to what they took into account). So to make a blanket statement about all Indians (of the community) is not right IMHO ; especially if it is offensive. Secondly , there have been judgments made much later by the British as well as census reports by British that classify Kayastha as Kshatriya. In the view of the above facts, it is obvious that the "them" pronoun mentioned by the author you quote is referring to the last noun in that sentence(page 202 of Rowe) i.e. Bengali kayasthas. Either that is what the author meant or the author has been careless in framing the sentence. This is obvious from the judgement itself. In any case , if there are conflicting opinions , it is best to avoid one sided/biased views since they have an agenda(especially that can be hurtful to a community). BTW, I am neither Bengali not do I belong to the above community, nor am I in India. I only have interest in the literate castes of India (like Brahmins and Kayasthas) and their history. Just my two cents. Regards, M. Acharya. ps. I am new to Wikipedia. Please guide me if I am incorrect. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Acharya63 (talk • contribs) 05:19, 20 June 2017 (UTC)
Mythology Namasudra(Namassej) and Manoranja ByapariRegarding your comment on the talk page on the basis of which the mythology of this Hindu-apartheid vindicated community has been deleted , I humbly want to inform you that do not AGREE WITH. Firstly Only writer of International recognition to have mentioned the Mythology is Manoranjan Byapari . He is , not was as you have written . He is not promoting Dalit Writing that much . Rather he did not get any publicity though his Autobigraphical Discourse ( not a Novel ) is not about Dalits , rather a discourse about the Oppressed People In General ; unfortunately being a victim of Hindu Apartheid he faced personally many problems , and one of those is Destroy His writing . And what you have written the truth is just the opposite of that , Rather The Dalit Literature Promoted Him. Now neiter Sekhar Badyopadhyay , Nor Joya Chatterjee , nor any Caste Hindu Writer , whose reference is in your list , has mentioned the Mythology , is that a community fault , is that enough reason that for this a Bangla Academy Award winner writer becomes unreliable , although any such past writers , have been used in many India related articles as reliable source , is that him being outcaste , an Avarna , makes his writing , the autobiographical Discourse , an unreliable source ? I want your permission to use both his writing and another Ph.D thesis of a member of this Avarna community to be permitted being used as reliable source . If the Varna Hindu samaj due to their hatred and Apartheid inherent in their Hindu Religion ignores and omits our mythology , then it is not our fault , and I strongly believe , that the editors should take the discourses written by our community members as reliable source . প্রাকৃতনমঃস্বেজ (talk) 04:49, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
Harichand Thakur /Matua mahasnagha etc and Sipra MukherjeeThe scholar Sipra Mukherjee in her writing has written that In Matuya movement 'Chamar , Mahishya , mali ........ etc." communities joined.I have written In Bengal Not "Chamar" the term is "Muchi/Muchiram" , "Ruhidas" or "Rishidas" etc .Their population is also not much. And the "Chamars' we find in urban Bengal now came mainly from Bihar . But Sipra Mukherjee has written so , got a publisher like elite and so Sitush did not allow and I think you will not also . The upper caste people are changing things in the discourse . Erasing the original myths and etc. It is miserable . In the main book of Mtuya primarily Harichand not acknowledged as "Avatar" but the Mukherjee has so written . You are a Bengali Upper Caste . I do not know about Sitush. But you must be aware of the distortion . The tragedy is that Harilialmrito itself cannot be used as a source book as it has no English Translation and secondly for being not written by a Reliable Person ( Tarak Sarkar , is an untouchable lower caste practically uneducated non-pundit ). I am not asking for any correction . For a suggestion as what could be done?117.194.195.149 (talk) 06:25, 30 July 2017 (UTC) ArbCom 2017 election voter messageHello, Ekdalian.

Read the article on KayasthaDo consult the article on the exact Varna status of Kayasthas.. That Wikipedia has to offer. We don't have our version of truth... But one should not hold himself from accepting the truth Semper Curious (talk) 08:34, 24 June 2019 (UTC) Here's what you demandThe last census of the British Raj in India (1931) classified them as an 'upper caste' i.e. Dwija and the final British Raj law case involving their varna in 1926 placed them into the Kashtriya varna. According to W.Rowe's account (that later scholars disagreed with), during the British Raj era, certain law cases led to courts classifying Kayasthas as shudras, based largely upon the theories of Herbert Hope Risley who had conducted extensive studies on castes and tribes of the Bengal Presidency. According to Rowe, the Kayasthas of Bengal, Bombay and the United Provinces repeatedly challenged this classification by producing a flood of books, pamphlets, family histories and journals to pressurize the government for recognizing them as Kshatriya and to reform the caste practices in the directions of sanskritisation and westernisation. However, scholars from the University of Berkeley as well as the University of Cambridge have disagreed with Rowe's research by pinpointing 'factual and interpretative errors' in his study as well as criticizing his study for making 'unquestioned assumptions' about the kayastha movement of sanskritisation and westernisation. H.Bellenoit gives the details of the individual British Raj era law cases and concludes that since the kayasthas are a non-cohesive group and not a single caste, their varna was resolved in the cases that came up by taking into account regional differences and customs followed by that particular caste. Bellenoit also disagrees with W.Rowe by showing that Herbert Hope Risley's theories were in fact used to ultimately classify them as Kshatriyas by the British courts. The first case began in 1860 in Jaunpur, Uttar Pradesh with a property dispute where the plaintiff was considered an 'illegitimate child' by the defendants, a north-Indian Kayastha family. The British court denied inheritance to the child, citing that Kayasthas are Dvija, "twice-born" or "upper-caste" and that the illegitimate children of Dwijas have no rights to inheritance. In the next case in 1875 in the Allahabad High Court, a north Indian Kayastha widow was denied adoption rights as she was an upper-caste i.e. Dwija woman. However, in an 1884 adoption case as well as a 1916 property dispute, Calcutta High Court argued that Bengali kayasthas have started using names like 'Das' and classified the Bengali Kayasthas as shudras - although the court did acknowledge their Kshatriya origin. The Allahabad High Court ruled in 1890 that Kayasthas were Kshatriyas. Finally, in a property dispute case in Patna in 1926, the Patna court characterized both the 1884 and 1916 Calcutta courts rulings as inconclusive and ultimately ruled that the kayasthas were of Kshatriya origin and hence twice born or dwija. The Patna court cited smritis and Puranas, several colonial ethnologists, such as William Crooke and Herbert Hope Risley, and used their qualified endorsements on the dwija origins of Kayasthas. The British census of 1931 also lists Kayasthas as one of the upper (twice-born) castes.

Bengali KayasthasI included those surnames because they are listed on the same page and because multiple source materials reference these very names. Melotown (talk) 16:33, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
Ambasth KayasthasHi Ekdalian, Would like to have a discussion about Ambasth Kayasthas. I added a few contents which have been edited out by you. Ambasth kayasthas are not just confined to Bengal. They're widespread in Punjab,Bihar and Jharkhand regions mainly and also in MP,Chattisgarh etc. Ambasth Kayasthas are Brahmin Kayasthas or Brahm-Kayasthas. This confusion between Ambasthas and Vaidyas exists only in Bengal and nowhere else. Instead of clubbing the Ambasthas of all regions of India,you should allow to write the truth in wikipedia. I'd like to know your source which you're using. The Ambashtha Kayasthas (found chiefly in Southern Bihar), Crooke suggests "may be connected with the old Ambastha caste of Western-Punjab mentioned in the Mahabharata" as some Kayasthas are also associated with the practice of medicine and surgery.[42][32] Note:You haven't added anything on that page,instead you've intentionally removed the edits made by other users. It's known as vandalism. Note:Please tell me your source. Dinopce (talk) 12:10, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
Hello Ekdalian, I understand your concern about the addition of unsourced POV edits but I added the paragraphs in the introduction section from Ambasth Kayasth book written by K.N Sahay. It's not merely about providing the reference from where you've taken the information. You've simply quoted the sentences from the books that you like but when I added the following paragraph, Barhaspatya Arthashastra-The Ambastha were so important in the early centuries before Christ there is an Ambastha Sutra in the Pali work. "Ambasth here are represented as Brahmins. The Puranas call them Anaya Kshatriyas." from the K. Sahay book,it was reverted by you. May I know the reason why??! Mr. Ekdalian,your article itself is ambiguous. You've quoted that Ambasthas are from Brahmin father and Vaishya mother and the son begotten by a Brahmin father in all the 3 castes is a Brahmin. Once again,you've quoted this sentence from a book and even provided the reference but you've intertwined the Caste and Varna(categories of Hinduism) here. Then in the 3rd paragraph you've written about the Ambasth tribe in Mahabharat which clearly makes them Kshatriya. As a citizen of India and a commoner in front of you(and not an Ambasth Kayasth), it doesn't MAKE ANY SENSE. It clearly seems to me like intentional degradation of a particular community by you,Mr.Ekdalian. Mere quoting from a book isn't sufficient,it should also make sense. Anyone who will read your wikipedia page will understand that it's ambiguous. It's not about being a Kayasth or a Brahmin(caste) and not Varna. Everyone should have the right to add to wikipedia(quick Encyclopedia) but unnecessary degradation of a particular community is what I'm against. I hope that it's not your intention and I'd like to make further changes in this page Mr.Eklavian. Plz don't use Wikipedia to spread wrong information like this. Please correct me if I'm wrong but Wikipedia doesn't just require quoted statements only; instead they encourage the usage of adding info in YOUR OWN WORDS.
Dinopce (talk) 16:21, 6 March 2020 (UTC) Last but not the least, there's heaven and hell difference between Brahmin(varna) and Brahman(principle related to the cosmos). Your article intertwines everything! Brahmin varna,Brahmin caste and Brahman(metaphysical concept of the Brahmaand or universe. Your references are useless if your article doesn't make any sense. Mr.Ekdalian or let me put it in a straight forward way,Mr.Bengali Brahmin(caste),plz don't try to defame any particular community. Note:If that's not your intention and if it's my mistake of judging you wrongly, then I'm sorry that your article made me think that way about you. Namaste. Dinopce (talk) 16:32, 6 March 2020 (UTC) Just found one more thing in your article that caught my eye. The following "This differentiates the Ambasthas from the average Vaidyas, who were considered "unclean" and were denied the status accorded to the Ambastha.[6]". Baidya are considered as Bhadralok in Bengal. You've called them as UNCLEAN. Wikipedia is about writing about something so that the common people who don't have any knowledge about that topic can easily gain knowledge about it. What you're doing here is not knowledge sharing but misusing your right as an administrator of this page which was clearly created by you to spew false information about Ambasth Kayasthas as whole. Mr. Bengali Brahmin. I've got deep respect for Brahmins(priests). I'm a Hindu and this is what my sanskaar teaches me. But your intentions don't seem clear to me!! You're spewing venom against two communities of Bengal who are considered Bhadralok over there. BAIDYAS are also considered Brahmins only. Let me give you my perspective without any quotations or references from any book. The importance of varna or caste for that matter is the trait. It's in our genes! I already told you about the confusion between Ambasthas and Vaidyas in Bengal but you didn't consider it. Kayasthas are not the only ones who had mixed blood. Manusmriti is a live example of the Brahmin's misuse of their power. But nobody has written anything against the Brahmins in the Brahmin page. This entire page is a clear misuse of your adminstrator rights. Nothing more and nothing less!! Note:You've got administrator rights of this page. Please make judicious use of your power and spread knowledge for the betterment of the society and not to destroy the image of 2 of the communities which are part of your Bengali society specifically. Namaste Dinopce (talk) 18:51, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
Hi Ekdalian, I've added the paragraph space between the "Ambastha from Brahmin father...." AND "Ambastha also refers to a sub-caste of Kayasthas....". This was creating a lot of confusion. I hope you'll not revert it this time!! Also,I have a query. The Ambashtha Kayasthas (found chiefly in Southern Bihar), Crooke suggests "may be connected with the old Ambastha caste of Western-Punjab mentioned in the Mahabharata" as some Kayasthas are also associated with the practice of medicine and surgery.[1][2] What is wrong with my edit above? I've provided the source and reference as well. Why Dinopce (talk) 11:33, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

The user: RegentsPark has advised me to ask for your help. See the last discussion on his talk page under title: "About recent changes on Charan page" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:RegentsPark The issue is regarding the proper usage of verses of mythological texts like Ramayana & Mahabharata. I have written & tried to provide explanation on the talk page of RegentsPark. Please see the discussion. I hope you agree to help me on this issue. Thank you. Happy New Year.

Regarding BrahminHi, Why did you revert my removal. It is just his imagination. It is evident that Chanakya born in 375 BC. How do you justify this. He is against Hindu and part of Anti-Hindu group. How can we take his book as reference. Please go through best research book The Human Record: Sources of Global History, Volume I: To 1500 (this says about Brahmins during 700 BC), i also have many references. These things cannot be concluded like this. So, we should remove it. Moreover he is a Periar follower, Anti-Hindu, and Anti-Brahmin. He wrote many things like this in his books.- MRRaja001 (talk) 07:53, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
Need help on Jaiswal (surname)A user Swapnil1101 constantly adding spams or poorly sourced content at Jaiswal (surname), with a single objective of glorifying caste. As per WP:RS, India TV, The Times of India, Dainik Bhaskar, Navbharat times and matrimonial sites (jeevansathi.com) are not considered reliable for history/caste related details. But the user Swapnil1101 kept on adding these sources which was already removed by me and one administrator. Also the user directly added level 3 warning on my talk page for a single revert. As you are a senior editor and I have seen your contributions in South Asian history. Your input would be highly appreciable in this article. Thanks and regards.

Thank you for the correction regarding recent edits on the Charan page. It would be great if we can discuss beforehand if you have some issues or concerns about any changes. Since you are not familiar(assuming) with this social group, I understand if you find something strange in the article as I would be glad to explain those changes or help with the citations & sources.

I am sure that there are many more people grateful to you for all your wonderful contributions. I have always had great deference for you. I want to bring your attention to some of the recent edits made by a user named Nobita456; the edits plausibly are with a view to maligning the caste status of a single caste as the user belong to another caste from the same region. I request you to bring admin attention to this edit-warring as well, if possible. I have been indebted to you for all your wonderful work so far. May peace and bliss be your abode forever!

Listen sir I belong to this caste only if you want proof than i can provide you with my caste certificate also, which is directly made by government... Sir a caste never be Dalit and OBC at same time. then I can provide you with government Sources where it is clearly mentioned that Sundhi caste is a Sub caste of Bania... I can give you best clearly in it... You can't even say sundhi as dalit... it is proper vaishya caste according to government. I don't think that you are from India or here that's why you don't know about caste system of india and dalits. It's my request PLEASE DON'T MISGUIDE the peoples have a proper clearly and research.

Speedy delitionSince you are here for past ten years, i believe you possess much better knowledge than me about wiki policies. Do you think articles like those in this category Category:Unsolved murders in India fulfill the criteria for Speedy delition? Unsolved murder related articles are a notable topic for Wikipedia.

AFDsHello, Ekdalian, I've noticed in some of your comments in deletion discussions, you say "seems to", like "seems to meet GNG" or "seems notable". These comemnts say to me as I'm closing a discussion that you don't really know and you don't have a strong opinion on what happens. So, it's kind of like saying nothing at all. I'd like to encourage you to really investigate the sources in an article under discussion and take a position without qualification. It you truly believe a particular source establishes GNG for an article subject state that. Don't hedge your bets. If you think notability isn't evident, then argue for that position. Same goes for Redirect, Merge or Draftify opinions. Deletion discussions are about presenting arguments for particular outcomes based on the quality of the sources and your own knowledge of Wikipedia policy. So, be more confident in that knowledge or skip that discussion and look at a different AFD where you might have a stronger sense of what should happen. Thank you though for participating in AFDs, we have a definite shortage of editors willing to put in the time to review articles and your involvement is appreciated. Liz Read!

Ambastha KayasthaHey Ekdalian Sir, I noticed that you reverted my edit made on the article Ambastha Kayasthas. I would like to ask that why did you revert that edit as the article Chitraguptavanshi Kayastha clearly states that Ambashtha Kayastha is obviously upper caste. I would also like to request you that please don't do disruption to any edits for no reason made by fellow editors, specially the valid edits. Thanks {:-) TheProEditor11 (talk) 15:06, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
Ambastha KayasthaHey Ekdalian, Since you are an experienced editor here, I need a help from you regarding the article Ambastha. Actually, Ambastha Kayasthas follow a system of Khas Ghar which is the Gharana of any person belonging from the Ambastha sub-caste of Chitraguptavanshi Kayastha (Some Gharanas are - Chargave, Pachgave, Daraad, Jamuar, Okhandiar, Rukhaiyar etc).

RE: your reversion on Saraswat BrahminHello fellow traveller. I logged on to see that you reverted my edit to Saraswat Brahmin and I am curious, mainly with regards to some of the terminology you used. The edit in question:
I am wondering if you could explain to me what "caste promotion" means in this context. To be clear, I am not trying to contest your reversion, I just realized that the request came from a probable sock (see:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Joshi punekar), this is coming from a place of personal curiosity.

SockThanks for this. The IP is most definitely a sock of this sockfarm and the other one whom you reverted may also be same but an SPI by me a few years ago wasn't conclusive. May be a different guy, but the agenda is same, initially pushed by the sockfarm. Anyway the lists should follow the order laid out in the source or should be alphabetical per MOS:LISTORG. Nowhere I've seen a policy to add the supposed indigenous one before. In a country where Standard Hindi is the official in many states, where it is not the native tongue, such arguments by the IP only demonstrates the POV. So yes, your reversion is correct. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 10:12, 25 February 2024 (UTC)

Please let me know if you want me take a look at any page. I will have more time for the rest of the year. Also, if you ping me please use "ping|username" instead of "u|username" as the latter does not seem to notify me (seems like a bug or some setting associated with my account). Or feel free to drop a message on my talk page if I do not respond in a reasonable time. Thanks, LukeEmily (talk) 18:58, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
Also, why did ratnahastin not object to the absurd rajputra addition that both sitush and admin objected to?LukeEmily (talk) 09:19, 9 November 2024 (UTC)
Hey ekdalian. I hope you're doing well. I need your help with the Sri Lankan vellalar article. That article has many misinterpreted and misleading edits that imply that Sri Lankan Pallar (Considered untouchables in history) and Sri Lankan Vellalar (considered Hindu caste) are the same. I have tagged you on the talk page for more details. Please look into this matter. 2409:40F4:200D:7C2B:BCDF:CF94:7E25:E27 (talk) 16:40, 21 October 2024 (UTC) Veerashaivauser:PerspicazHistorian he is continuing to push mythology as history ,your revert is also undid by him, Veerashaiva and Lingayatism is same, Panchacharyas are not existed before 20th century, the siddhata shikamani, myth is busted by researchers, siddanta shikamani mentions only Renukaradya, their is no panchacharyas before 20th century, RI talk 10:27, 18 November 2024 (UTC)

To follow up on your reply, that would make it WP:PREEMPTIVE. The protection level should match the actual user rights of disruptive accounts, not potential ones — unless ECP is expressly mentioned as a base-level protection, like in WP:GS/AA, WP:RUSUKR and so on. But if the issue is that prevalent in the caste topic area (which it may well be), it might be worthwhile to try to update its corresponding WP:CASTE sanctions regime to say that. Because at present it makes no mention of it. Thank you. El_C 01:51, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

Caste promotion on wiki pagesHey admin, there is a user User:Drisha herjee who is again and again causing vandalism to the wiki article ‘Ahir clans’ by removing the well sourced information and adding information based on unreliable sources. We can clearly see the caste promotion this user is trying to do please ask this user not to do so and add the genuine information only if truly wants to contribute. HistorianAlferedo (talk) 04:30, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
Pov pushAdmin have a look at page ‘Ahir clans’ what User:Drisha herjee did there. Removed a large part of well cited information of the Dauwa clan calling it as British raj source but that’s actually not so. Please intervine. Thank you HistorianAlferedo (talk) 19:09, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
Ekdalian please stop the user HistorianAlferedo from vandalising the ahir clan page,sources provided by him are raj era sources and are unreliable, please check yourself and let a neutral editor make edits... at present there is a great attempt to perform rajput caste POV and glorification. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drisha herjee (talk • contribs) 07:53, 1 December 2024 (UTC)
Pant SurnameHello, I saw that you remove Uttrakhand and Maharashtra references from the page.I am also a native of the region and a historian, so I am well-versed in the origins and history. I recommend referring to Kumaon Ka Itihas for more details. Many notable individuals, like Pt. Govind Ballabh Pant (former Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh), were from Uttarakhand. It's important to note that not all information is available everywhere. Wikipedia is a reliable source of information, and removing the truth based on one person's opinion will harm its credibility. Kumaon Ka Itihas book talks about Pant's migration from Maharashtra to Uttrakhand and Nepal around 700 years ago. We all are in a mission for accurate info to be published on Wikipedia. Happy to get your feedback. Also I am unsure sometime why my ip is only showing instead of used name. I am a contributor since year 2007. Best Anni_in Anni in (talk) 15:58, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
