Consider@Utcursch: Hi, please go through the references, out of 99, only 2-3 Castes use surname 'Gowda', vast majority of lingayat prefix respective occupational surnames. Many of the Indian articles are mistakenly sourced, those need timely updates. If, you and other privileged foreigners with greater tools block newcomers defending outdated/contrary to the reality statements, how can the articles be improved?, what about those who refer Wikipedia?. Now, you have changed the preference, what I had previously done. Expecting your justification.Aatoturk (talk) 14:03, 2 September 2018 (UTC) [1].[2] References
MewarI did not know the syntax for formatting History related articles on Wikipedia. I know about History of India and Rajasthan in particular as I am a History Aficionado. Before adding the lineage of the illustrious house of Mewar, I sought permission for the same from Eternal Mewar, an organization and they allowed me to mention about the oldest known dynasty in India. The website (EternalMewar) is mentioned in many articles related to the rulers of Mewar in the external links sections. Once again, I am sorry for providing information without verifying from the Wikipedia ADMIN team — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sarkarankur (talk • contribs)
I have done research on the kingdom of Mewar (1400 yr-old Kingdom) and have been in touch with the administration, and the staff of the royals of Udaipur with regard to same, they (Guhils) are the predecessors of the Kingdom of Sissodias of Chittorgarh and Udaipur. Gowda, Gehlots and the predecessors of the Kingdom of Sissodia's, the Guhils are different groups.

Disruptive UserHi, I see you have warned this user [1] but he seems to be adding unsourced content again on wiki. Checking his edits it seems most of it involve the South Indian Kannada language. Can something be done about this as he seems to have not paid heed to previous warnings.Linguisticgeek (talk)
This user is back. Keeps on adding unsourced content which I reverted. He removed a properly cited source on tigalari script. Also seems to have added unsourced content on balija caste and removed pollock citation on their varna. I see enough warnings have been issued to him.Linguisticgeek (talk)

Khilji changesHi.

So I know for a fact that Khiljis are not Turks but Afghans. They had some Turk blood. But they adopted Afghan identity. Furthermore in this article below read early life section. It clearly mentions that the Indian Turks considered them Afghans. Shah Rukh Khan is a Khilji.

Disruptive IPsHi, Utcursch. I blocked 182.70.189.109 and I see you blocked 182.70.182.195 a little later (obviously the same individual). After checking the range contributions from 182.70.176.0/20, I don't see anything other than disruption and harassment from it in the past few weeks, so I've blocked the entire range for a week. I suppose my block may possibly inconvenience a good editor, but that doesn't seem very likely. Anyway. I'm sure the person will pop right back up after the week, or maybe immediately from another range, but what can you do. Regards, Bishonen | talk 19:03, 6 March 2018 (UTC).

BhojaEdits and additions on this page are based on Gazetteer , Government records , inscriptions found . I am trying to write the correct names . As I studied and found that Bhoja was of Pramar (प्रमार ) Dynasty .In all the sanskrit inscriptions and scriptures ( which is the source of History ) , Bhoja and his dynasty is called as Pramar . Continuous use Pramar word slowly became Panwar / parmara / Ponwar /powar /panwar/puar etc . Firista , Abu fazal use the word as Punwar or ponwar . Rasmala , bhats of Rajasthan use पँवार for Pramaras . It is required to specify it here in this page to avoid confusion . More precisely Ponwar or Panwar word need to be used as it is used in so many History books .If you ask any Parmar , they will say they are of Panwar race .

Project Tiger Writing ContestIn 2017 – 2018, the Wikimedia Foundation and Google working in close coordination with the Centre for Internet and Society (CIS), Wikimedia India Chapter (WMIN) and user groups from India, are piloting a program encouraging Wikipedia communities to create locally relevant and high-quality content in Indian languages. This program will (a) support active and experienced Wikipedia editors through the donation of laptops and stipends for internet access and (b) sponsor a language-based contest that aims to address existing Wikipedia content gaps. Phase (a) has been completed, during which active contributors were awarded laptops and internet stipends. Phase (b) will be a contest in which editors will come together and develop a writing contest focused on content gaps. Each month three individual prizes will be awarded to each community based on their contribution for the month. The prizes worth 3,000 INR, 2000 INR, and 1,000 INR, will be awarded to the top contributors for each month. The contest started at March 1, 2018, 0:00, and will end at May 31, 2018, 23:59 (IST).

I had made a one sentence long same edit in both places, to provide the wider historical context and cross-linkages. Based on taking your another comment elsewhere on face value, I now understand your reasoning why Dikshitar is an outdated source. I want to further understand the following from you:
Which groups I can read more. I also want to raise these issues to create awareness about these, so that all admins/editors start being more fair, consistent, kinder. I worry people might mistake it for pushing an agenda, diluting quality, etc etc and pounce of me, because some of it will shake up their deep rooted biases, disrupt the chain of "packing order" (wikipedia is egalitarian only in the name) and their personal feudal hold over the particular set of articles they may have created.

You dont know about it and you keep wasting my time with edits. You do not have the qualification to be an expert on this field. You can ask anybody who knows Mr. Prakash Vir Shastri that his caste was Tyagi. Just because there is no substantial proof from 70 years back you can not deny them their identity.

Ashoka Rise to PowerReputed Historians may be but that does not mean their finding are right. More than that read his book properly before telling me what is what. Here we are talking about history, history is not assumption, its fact. And if there si no fact you can't anything you want just simply someone says so. They clearly written, the pattern of the sites of edicts of Ashoka shows in the map, which does not show which part is under his control and which not. There are many historians and many interpretation, but accepted which is fact based. And their research does not have any facts behind them, they simply assumed and biggest false in their words is about "the tribal areas" shown in the map, this is the Orissa, the final battle Ashoka of Kalinga took place which si conquered which is a fact as if you come to India go and read the EDICT 13 of Ashoka, you will find this written "Directly after the Kalingas had been annexed began His Sacred Majesty’s zealous protection of the Law of Piety, his love of that Law, and his inculcation of that Law. Thence arises the remorse of His Sacred Majesty for having conquered the Kalingas, because the conquest of a country previously unconquered involves the slaughter, death, and carrying away captive of the people. That is a matter of profound sorrow and regret to His Sacred Majesty", so how come this area is not part of his empire, it was not a tribal state at all, there was king at that time. Again, when they were discussing the power rank of his minsiter of different part, they get anomaly in Kalinga which itself shows they proved that their assumption are wrong. This is not my personal view. I have enough logic before editingand removing. I hope you understand, we don't have to believe anything and everything whoever he or she can be, but by facts and stats. And those historians can be reputed but they can be wrong. So you must change your edit and yes if you keep the same than add links as you said many other people doubted these border. or I am going to edit again.

But I would also like to share that families with Pawar as their surname that claim to be Rajput hail from North Indian states like Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand as well. So mentioning the fact that Pawar surname is found among only Maratha clans that claim to be Rajput along with Punjabis and Jatts and Nepal is quite misleading. I believe since Rajput caste is all over the India, there must be families with Pawar surname from other states too.

Possible conflicting informationHi Utcursch, I was wondering if you could help. There has been some vandalism in the past on the article about Arvind Singh Mewar which is why I watchlisted it. Recently there seems to have been some back and forth whether or not he is the 76th custodian of the House of Mewar or if it's his brother Mahendra Singh Mewar. There are sources for both and this appears to be a long running dispute which ended up in court (apparently). I haven't been able to find any conclusion. If you have any starting points that help solve this, this may be good as I have a feeling the real-life controversy finds itself on WP. I suspect some recent sources may not be available in English.

Moving KOCE-TVWelcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to KOCE-TV, without good reason. They need to have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Ways to improve Shiv JayantiHi, I'm Anbans 585. Utcursch, thanks for creating Shiv Jayanti! I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Hey Utcursch! Thanks for creating the page, though it will be very helpful if you would be able to add some extra citations, and information to the page. Like how the festival is celebrated and its importance etc. The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. Anbans 585 (talk) 11:12, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

Dating the TirukkuralHi Utcursch. In Dating the Tirukkural, under the "Historical dating" section, you've tagged citation 8 as a primary source. Here, Seneca the Younger is the primary source for he is the one who writes about the Tirukkural in his works. François Valentijn mentions this in his work Description of Ceylon (1724–26) and hence it is the secondary source. Perhaps it should have been worded thus: "For instance, Seneca the Younger (c. 4 BC–AD 65) has been recorded as mentioning the Tirukkural in his works by the French scholar François Valentijn in "Description of Ceylon (1724–26)", indicating that Valluvar must have lived during or before Seneca the Younger's time." Please suggest. I couldn't find any tertiary source for François Valentijn. Thanks. Rasnaboy (talk) 17:15, 30 September 2018 (UTC)
QueryHello. I hope this is how u use talk pages?! Anyway...untouchables are called 'avarnas' and 'achhoots', which means outcastes= untouchables. IDK what's so hard to understand about it that u keep @ing me for some reason(I got a notif with ur name). The source is reliable, and I told u that I will add info to it regarding other cultures within a few days so Imma just assume that untouchability is a personal topic for u, coz y would anyone pester another person so much for absolutely minuscule reason.

Kushwaha CasteHi Atmaram, I have read the wikipedia page on Kushwaha caste and found it to be little misinformative. Firstly, you have made a group of four castes in Kushwaha category. Kushwaha surname is not used by Mauryas, Koeris, Muroas or Kacchis. Kushwaha is a different caste. It is a caste of farmers and warriors. Kushwaha marries within their community of Kshtriyas or farmers not in the above mentioned castes that you mention in the page. Others castes are different and each are having different roles in society but Kushwaha altogether is a different caste. We were either land owning farmers or warriors. We used to cultivate our own lands or take help from other people but we were never the peasants. You are ruining our image by saying that we were peasants and comes under stigmatised Shudra Varna. This is blasphemy against our identity. You gave reference to a book by William Pinch. But do you think he really understood the Indian society at the ground level. There is a big NO. If we are Shudra varna then the Brahmins shouldn't come and eat with us. Sit with us or drink with us. But in reality they do sit with us, eat with us and marry with us. Come to Bundelkhand in India where you will see such examples. If you are referring us Shudra based on the economic conditions that we used to face earlier during British time some 100 years back then its ok but what about the economic conditions before that and now after 70 years of Indian Independence. We were a rich community with vast lands with us. But the economic policies of British made us weak. If you think we are stigmatised Shudra varna who grew vegetables and its a bad occupation then why you eat the food grow on our lands by our hands. Its a food grown by a Shudra enriching your blood with noble thoughts that you use on Wikipedia. You have shown us a weak and most backward community in India worse than schedule caste and schedule tribe based on our occupation. Is farming on land is really a bad thing to do for a person to earn a livinghood. We think our lands as our mother and still not leaving our mother despite economic condition that we face in this occupation. Instead of glorifying you are ruining us.

For your knowledge about "Gurjar Pratihar"Just search in google - "gurjar samrat mihir bhoj PARK" And "gurjar samrat mihir bhoj MARG" Its in Delhi and Noida that clearly states Gurjar-Prathihar empire relates to Gujjar \ Gurjar tribe only, and the empire king Mihir Bhoj was Gujjar. work on ground level my dear. Just writing a book does not create a history. It is mentioned all over the stones and stuff found from the historcal sites. That is why govt of india / delhi and uttar pradesh Noida made the Park and Marg (Highway) on Gurjar Tribe name. And stop creating myth or confusion over web, because on ground level it is clear. If still you have any doubt, then let me know why Indian Govt made that PARK and MARG on Gurjar Tribe name ?? MaverickDelhi (talk) 14:32, 15 October 2018 (UTC)

Removal of portions from Muhammad bin Bakhtiyar KhiljiHello Utcursch. I an Ghulam Zeeshan, I had removed portion from Muhammad bin Bakhtiyar Khalji as they were wrong and biased content stating that Khalji has destroyed Nalanda. Please note, much before the invasion of Bakhtiyar Khalji, Nalanda University had been became ruins because of the in-fights between Hinayana and Mahayana Buddhist sects. However, there was another Mahavihara in Odantapuri (now days Bihar Sharif in Nalanda District) inside the fort of the local king which was partially affected in the battle between the forces of Khalji and the king in 1197-98 AD. The chronicle, Tabaqat-i-Nasiri of Minhaj Al-Siraj Juzjani, which is considered as the historical record of the time, apparently refers to this place and does not even mention the name of Nalanda. Minhaj only speaks of the ransacking of the “fortress of Bihar” (Hisar-i-Bihar). This is the view of many historians and, most importantly, of Sir Jadunath Sarkar, w(History of Bengal, B.R. Publishing Corp., 2003).| talk 18:52, 24, August2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ghulam Zeeshan (talk • contribs)

Ankurpurnia (talk) 02:56, 9 November 2018 (UTC) HindushHi Utcursch, to explain my ping from Talk:Achaemenid conquest of the Indus Valley, a long debate has been raging there between the user Pataliputra (User:पाटलिपुत्र) and me, on that page as well as a dozen related pages like Kabul hoard etc. The specific contention here is the location of the province of Hindush in the Achaemenid empire. Most scholars, as far as I can see, interpret it as Sindh, but there are a few that think it is at or near Taxila. The issue now is how to cover both the possibilities in an WP:NPOV way. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 10:01, 14 November 2018 (UTC)

Old editsFollowing recent action against socks: for the record, it seems that all remaining edits about Khudabadi Sonaras were added in 2011 by Special:Contributions/201.225.88.74.

User AspenheitzThis user has added a lot of info here in the Narendra Modi citing it has been translated from the article in Gujarati Wikipedia. It seems too much detailed to be in the lead since the same has been covered in the early life section as well. My point is, can article sections be copy-translated-pasted without reliable sources from corresponding articles in other languages since it becomes a problem to verify sources like that.

Here he has clearly told he is from Nepal https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/south-asia/Artistes-have-no-borders-Udit-Narayan-tells-Nepal/articleshow/4037648.cms ... so basically what has happened is Nepalese critised him as how can a Nepalese get a Padma Shri if he is not an Indian.

Hello Admin, Jkalaiarasan86 (talk · contribs) has been pushing casteist views on many articles and has been trying to link the Muthuraja community with several unrelated articles. To name a few: [10], [11], [12]. More recently he has been edit warring with me in article Thirumangai Alvar. He claims the personality belongs to Muthuraja community while I've added sources([13]) to explain that the person belongs to Kallar_(caste). I've attempted to reason with him but when asked to support his edits with sources, the user simply resorts to reverting the article to his preferred version. I've tried explaining WP:VERIFY and WP:NEUTRALITY and the need to maintain a neutral version (without any caste name) but he continues to add Muthuraja caste name. How to go about dealing with this?
