Regarding A.B. Vajpayee`s comment on Indira Gandhi. It is more reliable to take it from the source (himself) rather than newspaper reports. The references you cited were 29(Dynasties and Female Political Leaders in Asia: Gender, Power and Pedigree. By Claudia Derichs, Mark R. Thompson) which it self cites p.175 of Indira Gandhi A Biography(1997) by Pupul Jayakar. A Pupul Jayakar does not say in her book that that A.B. Vajpayee called her durga, but simply states that she likened to durga. (I tried to copy excerpt from page 175 for your benefit but it triggered a filter) while citations 30 and 31 are irrelevant as they do not contain this reference. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.196.195.188 (talk) 20:14, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2015-12-03T20:14:00.000Z","author":"117.196.195.188","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-117.196.195.188-2015-12-03T20:14:00.000Z-Indira_Gandhi","replies":[]}}-->

You have used the word anthromorphic on the Kurmi page, share anthromorphic features, what do you mean by anthromorphic?Yogesh Khandke (talk) 05:22, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2011-07-21T05:22:00.000Z","author":"Yogesh Khandke","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Yogesh_Khandke-2011-07-21T05:22:00.000Z-Anthromorphic","replies":[]}}-->

Yogesh, Anthromorphology stands for physical features of a particular community or race. Other definitions I have seen on the web include, structures built by humans such as the pyramids. Risley was chief of the 1901 census of India. Unlike the present system, in those days the British colonial authorities counted every caste and sub-caste in India, for example, Marathi deshastha and karhade brahmins . For the this particular census , he also measured physical features of all the castes that were studies. The features includeed length and breadth of the nose, shape of the head, skin colour and height. I may have missed or added a feature here or there. I am using the word anthromorphic studies for this project. I don't think I coined this word. If you use anthromorphology with the word racial then you will get several hits.

I don't have direct references but all of the above would be regarded as Maratha. Now the border between who is the socially high ranking 96 kulee Maratha and who is "plain" or Kunbi-Maratha is not clear. I have rarely come across a Maratha who wanted to differentiate himself as 96 kulee. Rajnikant started his working life as a bus driver in Bangalore so I doubt that he is from the 96 kulee. Sharad Pawar's family background is that of small farmer. Smita Patil came from a middle class background. Lalita Pawar starting her career in the 1920s or 1930s cinema and could not have come from conservative 96 kulee. As I suggested on Talk: Kunbi, the article should be merged with Maratha. The Maratha identity is very fluid. For example, Jijabai was from the Jadhav family but married a "Rajput-Maratha" Shahaji Bhosale. The 96 kulee do not have any bar against accepting as their brides, women from the kunbi families, however, they refrain from offering their daughters to the kunbis. However, centuries of hypergamy must have produced a 96 kulee population that is indistinguishable from the kunbis. I rarely heard anyone putting the suffix kunbi after Maratha. However, as you say in the article, the government of Maharashtra declared the kunbis as OBC. That act must have started the reverse process of Marathas identifying themselves as kunbis. Now getting back to the topic of discussion, I will look for references on the family life of the people you mention.

That was a good catch by you, thanks. I was trying to avoid close paraphrasing etc and I must admit to sometimes being fazed by the entire issue of family relationships - I have to think twice before naming my own cousins! It raises an interesting point (to me, at least) about the specifics but I do not know where to find out more about it, eg: the distinction between marriage to a female cousin via the male sibling of a mother's versus, say, a male cousin of that sibling or the ... well, the permutations are beyond me. Is it really that well defined, or is it just an example chosen by the source? To be clear, I am not doubting you in the slightest, although the "close cousin" rephrase does seem to advance things no further if the issue is as specific as this. Do you know of any source (not necessarily specific to Kunbi) that could help me to understand this? I rather think that it may be connected to the matrilineal concept but am genuinely at a loss. - Sitush (talk) 00:57, 16 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2011-10-16T00:57:00.000Z","author":"Sitush","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Sitush-2011-10-16T00:57:00.000Z-Kunbi_cousins","replies":[]}}-->

Amongst the Hindu communities that practice or used to practice Cousin marriage, it is always cross cousins and never between parallel cousins. For example, I can marry my mother's brother's ( maternal uncle's) daughter ( we will be cross cousins) but not my father's brother's (paternal uncle's) daughter ( we will be parallel cousins). Again, cross cousin marriages are seen mostly in Hindus of central and Southern India but not in the North. Amongst the muslims, in India and elsewhere, there is no bar against cross or parallel cousins marrying. The UK government , I believe, is running a campaign against cousin marriage amongst the UK muslim communities to discourage this practice in order to reduce the incidences of genetically inherited diseases.^[1] I hope this helps.

Si tush, if you have access to archives of New Scientist magazine at a local Uni, then please search for an article on cousin marriages in southern India. I remember reading it in the 1990s.

Hi,

Thank you for voting in the India Demographics Image Vote. I have counted the results of the vote and displayed them here. The top 8 images with the most votes were displayed.

Unfortunately, User:Fowler&fowler believes that he should be the one that gets to pick the final images, despite the fact that all of us have voted. He has called me disruptive, and when I tried to explain myself, he has reverted my explanation on the talk page twice!!! How can a user just delete someone else's comments on the Talk page?

Wikipedia consensus says that the images that most people have agreed upon should be the ones in the rotation. One user can't just pick his own images when all of us have voted. What's the point of voting then?? I am not sure what to do.

Since you voted, please post your opinion here. Thanks.

Since the Marata versus Kunbi ambiguity exists in the sources (and this is pretty uniform across multiple reliable sources), Wikipedia rules such as WP:OR will not allow us to draw a clear line clarifying who is who.

A while back you asked for help on how to use the {{sfn}} template. It's really a simple two step process. Sfn works in conjunction with the {{citation}} template. For the Kunbi article, to use the Hanlon work on Phule, you would have to first add the citation in the sources/references section like this:

Step 1: Add citation in sources/references section

• O'Hanlon, Rosalind (2002), Caste, Conflict and Ideology: Mahatma Jotirao Phule and Low Caste Protest in Nineteenth-Century Western India, Cambridge South Asian Studies, Cambridge University Press, ISBN 9780521523080

Step 2: Use the sfn template like this: {{sfn|O'Hanlon|1996|p=x}} or {{sfn|O'Hanlon|1996|pp=x-y}}

I've already taken care of step 1 so you can directly start adding content and cite it with {{sfn|O'Hanlon|1996|p=...

See Brahmanism. Brahmanical worship constitutes of yajnas, Vedic hymns, Sanskrit stotras, elaborate ritualistic pujas where Brahmins preside et al. Non-Brahminical worship in Varkaris evolves "spiritual" worship with singing Vithoba's praises in form of abhangs or repeating his name or just darshan without ritual pujas. Non-Brahmanical worship in the Khandoba cult includes folk traditions like hook-swinging or fire-walking, non-vegetarian offerings. The articles do not say Brahmins do not worship Vithoba and Khandoba. They do worship, however the predominant cult/sects devoted to these deities are non-Brahmincal in nature. --Redtigerxyz ^Talk 17:02, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-01-25T17:02:00.000Z","author":"Redtigerxyz","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Redtigerxyz-2012-01-25T17:02:00.000Z-Brahminical_v_non-brahminical","replies":["c-Redtigerxyz-2012-01-25T18:18:00.000Z-Redtigerxyz-2012-01-25T17:02:00.000Z"]}}-->

About Vithoba/Khandoba devotees, even Brahmins may indulge in non-Brahmanical worship while worshipping the deity or vice versa. But the predominant worship is non-Brahmanical in nature. Hinduism has evolved and there have been changes, like women performing yajnas, the blurring of casteism in urban centres et al. An article can be written if sufficient references are found. I am not much in such Hindu society articles (more into deities and epic figures), but I can help you if you can find the references and start an article. --Redtigerxyz ^Talk 18:18, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-01-25T18:18:00.000Z","author":"Redtigerxyz","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Redtigerxyz-2012-01-25T18:18:00.000Z-Redtigerxyz-2012-01-25T17:02:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

The issue of mentioning caste for Bachchan and his family has been discussed on the article talk page. There is also a link at User:Sitush/Common#Castelists.

Please do not use search terms such as "lal bahadur shastri kayastha" when researching on Google etc. Such terms produce false or tainted results. For example, they exclude the possibility that the subject's caste is disputed. It is poor use of such searches that has given rise to the horrendous mess regarding caste and their associated varnas on Wikipedia (eg: people searching for "nair kshatriya" inevitably find results to support that claim but they generally omit the fact that it is not universally accepted). I'll do a search myself and find something better, just by reading around "lal bahadur shastri". - Sitush (talk) 17:56, 17 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-10-17T17:56:00.000Z","author":"Sitush","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Sitush-2013-10-17T17:56:00.000Z-Shastri_and_Kayastha","replies":["c-Sitush-2013-10-17T18:25:00.000Z-Sitush-2013-10-17T17:56:00.000Z"]}}-->

I don't think that it is contradicted with ashvamdedha. Ashvamedha seems to be vedic sacrifice with no importance for this age.

The Yajurveda mentions animal sacrifice. Also saying "Hinduism forbids animal sacrfice" is such a sweeping sentence that is totally divorced from the reality of thousands of animals sacrificed across India in temples of Kali, Bhavani, Ekvira etc. If you say the Vaishnavism, the largest sect of Hinduism forbids it then I can understand. I hope it is clear what I am trying to say.

You haven't used the Talk page at all, to discuss the changes you want to introduce. Please do so

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Diabetes mellitus. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount and can lead to a block, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection.

Seasons Greetings,

This is in reference to a relatively new umbrella article on en-wikipedia named Ceremonial pole. Ceremonial pole is a human tradition since ancient times; either existed in past at some point of time, or still exists in some cultures across global continents from north to south & from east to west. Ceremonial poles are used to symbolize a variety of concepts in several different world cultures.

Through article Ceremonial pole we intend to take encyclopedic note of cultural aspects and festive celebrations around Ceremonial pole as an umbrella article and want to have historical, mythological, anthropological aspects, reverence or worships wherever concerned as a small part.

While Ceremonial poles have a long past and strong presence but usually less discussed subject. Even before we seek translation of this article in global languages, we need to have more encyclopedic information/input about Ceremonial poles from all global cultures and languages. And we seek your assistance in the same.

Since other contributors to the article are insisting for reliable sources and Standard native english; If your contributions get deleted (for some reason like linguistics or may be your information is reliable but unfortunately dosent match expectations of other editors) , please do list the same on Talk:Ceremonial pole page so that other wikipedians may help improve by interlanguage collaborations, and/or some other language wikipedias may be interested in giving more importance to reliablity of information over other factors on their respective wikipedia.

This particular request is being made to you since your user name is listed in Wikipedia:Translators available list.

I do declare, I think that "sensual pleasures" sentence is one of the most contested ones I've ever added to a Wikipedia article, and likely the most-contested for a line which basically nobody has even attempted to refute by properly questioning the source of providing a reputable counter-source.

The only comparable thing would be the article Mansaf, where for years I've had to go in and fix it when people change the description of this yogurt and rice dish to "Jordanian dish" instead of the well-cited and documented "Jordanian and Palestinian dish".

The eminent historian, Jadunath Sarkar describes Sambhaji as "violent, capricious, and notoriously depraved in morals".Although Shivaji has God like status in Maharashtra, among local Marathi people, Sambhaji is also revered as "defender of the Hindu faith " because just before his death in 1689, he refused to convert to islam under torture by the Mughals. Therefore, being sensual does not fit the narrative preferred by his followers. But Mehta's work is based on respected historians like Sarkar and others and it should stay. I may even add more material on defection of Sambhaji to the Mughals during Shivaji's reign. Thanks.

The eminent historian such as jadunath Sarkar himself has changed and discovered many new information regarding sambhaji in his Aurangzeb vol1- vol 5 .he has mentioned that in "Life of aurangzeb "vol 4" under section preface to volume 2. With this logic historians like VS Bendre, has done more extensive historical work, discovered new sources , documents on sambhaji .....and claim made by early historians of sambhaji as failed ruler are proved inaccurate...by historians..like kamal Gokhale (she has a PhD in sambhaji topic done in English and has book based on sambhaji in Marathi and English as well ).there's one more historian dr Jaysingh Pawar he has also debunked myth of sambhaji as cruel.., violent...All of the mentioned historians have done serious scholarly work and ..i request Wikipediian community to look beyond English sources of history and few historians and consider work of historians who have specially done research and have work based on topic sambhaji..

Hello Amit, Chander's book does not have any citations in the book to substantiate the claims. The other one is a website. please provide a reliable source where the authors can back up the claims. From what I have read of Maratha navy, they operated only on the coastal waters of Konkan between Mumbai and Sawantwadi.

What exactly needs to be referenced in this section? --Kansas Bear (talk) 22:10, 28 August 2016 (UTC) Thanks for your quick response. I believe the section needs more content than just two quotes from Mr. Agarwal's book. Also the agarwal book clearly says that the Diwan-E-Khas was looted just prior to the battle of Panipat in 1761. Surely, this should be part of section on that battle rather than a separate section. Also the section ends by saying that the rohillas hated Marathas. Again this should be part of the Panipat section because the Maratha defeat of Rohillas made the latter support Abdali in the battle of Panipat and during events preceding it and after the battle.

The below sentence has a citation. I have provided a reference. Please check

In 1679, Shivaji annexed the island of Khanderi, which was 11 miles off the entrance to Mumbai. In response the English and the Siddis repeatedly attacked the island but were unable to oust the Marathas from the islands

Amit20081980 talk 18:31, 24 September 2016 (UTC) Thanks for going the extra mile to find a better looking reference, however, the author does not give any supporting references in the two lines he has on Kanhoji Angre. Until a few years ago nobody said anything about Kanhoji setting up a base on the other side of the Indian peninsula, thousands of miles from his base on Konkan coast. Did brand new evidence come out recently ? If you are adding something to an article about history then there has to be a reliable evidence. Your reference does not fit that bill. I mainly work on indian and Maharashtra related articles and add material only after careful consideration. We should all be proud of our histories but perpetuating outlandlish claims does not do our subject matter any good. Regards.

Couple of more issues: punctuations always go after the refs, like here and for cite book with Google Books urls, the isn't any need for the access-date parameter--this is only used for regular webpages which change from time to time, GB links are suppose to be just the book and would never change. In the GB url only the "&id" (book's unique id) and "&pg" (page) are required, so

I'm not sure what was going on at Mahr in recent months but it looks like you may have added a lot of content relating to Dalits that was either unsourced or not in fact supported by the sources. Some even appeared to be violations of WP:BLP. I've trimmed a fair amount of stuff from the article but I suspect we may need to check pretty much every single source now because there has been an influx of Dalit-centric contributors on Wikipedia and far too many of them have been both POV pushers and clueless. - Sitush (talk) 15:42, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-01-04T15:42:00.000Z","author":"Sitush","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Sitush-2017-01-04T15:42:00.000Z-Mahar","replies":["c-Jonathansammy-2017-01-04T15:57:00.000Z-Sitush-2017-01-04T15:42:00.000Z"]}}-->

Please do not keep removing valid cited references from the CKP page. You keep doing that multiple times. You seem to be very keen on adding malicious content on this page. The Wikipedia is used to show facts (even if old) and not propagate personal agendas. People go through a lot of effort to find very old references since many are hard to find. Please do not keep removing them. Best regards, MichaelSan.

Thank you, and if participating, good luck with the finale!

hi there, wrt your latest edit where you restored text focussed on his son Shamsher Singh. I think the personal life section has gone back to detailing the life of the latter instead of being focussed on the subject of the article. IMHO, it makes sense to keep Shamsher related text to the bare minimum necessary and keep the focus on Baji Rai?

Sure.

• Even the intervention of Bal Shastri Jambhekar, the most distinguished

first-generation graduate of the English schools and an orthodox Karhada Brahmin, could not entirely overcome the bitter split within orthodox ranks.^[1]

• Myth and history intertwine closely in the life of the Rani of Jhansi, known in

childhood as Manu. Even the date of her birth is uncertain.1 She was born in the holy city of Varanasi to a Karhada Brahmin, Moropant Tambe.^[2]

• Karhada Brahmans, numerically a small group, also live in the western coastal regions ; Sardesai, the historian, belongs to this caste.^[3]

• A Chitpavan member of the Bombay legislature brought the matter to the attention of the government;eminent historians discussed the matter at the annual meeting of the Indian Historical Records Commission; and the then Prime Minister of Bombay (BG Kher, a Karhade Brahman) received a personal appeal from Pendse ^[4]

• Golwalkar—'Guruji' in the Sangh pantheon——came into this world a few days before this date …in 1906 on Monday, 19 February, at 4.34 am, which was Magha Vadya 11, Shaka 1827 according to the Hindu calendar. He was born into a Karhada Brahmin family of Nagpur. His

father, Sadashivrao, was a civil servant who eventually retired as the headmaster of a school.^[5]

Hi Sitush, I think having caste lists is a great idea - it gives an idea of validated achievements of a community. It is very relevant to the caste. Most people jump from introduction section to the caste lists as these two are the most interesting. However, it is a good idea to requite a footnote or quote for the mention of every person in the caste list.Thanks-Acharya63 (talk) 06:04, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-02-02T06:04:00.000Z","author":"Acharya63","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Acharya63-2018-02-02T06:04:00.000Z-Jonathansammy-2018-01-11T19:09:00.000Z","replies":["c-Jonathansammy-2018-02-02T14:01:00.000Z-Acharya63-2018-02-02T06:04:00.000Z"]}}-->

Hi Jonathansammy, thanks for your work on Karhade brahmins. I am also working on wiki pages mostly related to marathi castes (in particular Deshastha , Koknastha, Karhade , Saraswat, CKP, Pathare Prabhu, maratha etc). Planning to get all these to GA status (deshastha seems to be the only one at GA status). I did get some books from the library here that cover some of these castes. Found a really good book on Chitpawans. Found some minor literature that cover Saraswats, Pathare prabhus, CKP and Daivadnya Brahmin but not in depth. But no good book on Karhade or Deshastha. If you know any books (specifically in english that might be available in US), pleas feel free to recommend them. I will try to get them. Second, I think some big personalities from many of the marathi communities are missing pages on wiki. For example, Deshastha (Vishnupant Pagnis etc.), Chitpawan (Vasant Joglekar etc.), CKP( Narayan Jagannath Vaidya, R. V. Sabnis etc.), Pathare Prabhu( I read that the first Indian origin chief justice in British era was a pathare prabhu but dont remember his name).Will try to get some references for these too fro the library. I think google books can sometimes be misleading because they could show something out of context since we get only a partial view and hence can be misleading.

Hi Acharya63, Ideally, I would use Marathi language sources for the topics you want to add to.I don't know whether Indian language books are indexed by Google or other search engines.Unfortunately,there will be editors who do not know the language, will delete the content for being from an "unreliable source".In that case you just have to stand your ground and plead for AGF.Having said the above,do you read Marathi at an advanced level? As far as English sources are concerned,Google is still the best source for information.Out of curiosity,the book you mention on castes, did you get that from a university library or your local library ?Anyhow,since the Kokanastha brahmins have dominated power,politics,social reform,and upper caste culture in places such as Pune during the Peshwa and early British era, one tends to find more books on them rather than the other castes and sub-castes.From your name it seems you have Deshastha heritage,correct?

Hi Jonathansammy, you guessed correctly about my heritage but my mother is Koknastha. I can read/write marathi well but have a better command on English. My interest is mostly limited to devotional literature in marathi which is hard to read (it uses some old dialect). I speak marathi with my family and maharashtrian friends. Got these books from the University libraries. The local libraries in the US do not have a good collection since caste related books are mostly of academic interest. The university libraries in the US (south asian sections) have books in marathi too. Unlike the Chitpawans who were very dominant and the tiny community of CKP that did really well too, the deshasthas (who were also well educated but more obsessed with rituals) progressed less in the British era because of religious obsession - which is still prevalent- although they produced a lot of saints unlike the Chitpawans. Both Chitpawans and CKP produced more intellectuals than the Deshasthas did in the late 19th/early 20th century in-spite of deshasthas being much larger in size. Some deshathas are quite sensitive wrt their status probably because of this. For a sensitiveness example :-) see https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Deshastha_Brahmin&diff=823089981&oldid=823081956

I simply put the quote from Jaffrelot where he referred to Kulkarnis as Brahmins but it was removed and replaced by some sensitive fellow because of what it said(Patils being superior) and thus removing a valid quote for the kulkarni name. :-) I personally have zero sensitivity on caste issues (perhaps because of living in the US) but I think any negative comment from a source should not be added unless it is generally considered true across the spectrum. Also I am against editors who try to downplay the achievements of castes other than their own. Caste discrimination is still prevalent in India (unfortunately). You might have heard of the Khole(brahmin) and the cook Nirmalatai Yadav (Maratha) case that was in the news a few months back. It shows that even in the 21st century, people in India are still obsessed with discrimination based on caste. Most westerners (or even non-maharashtrians) in my opinion do not have a good understanding of the caste system in maharashtra. Anyway, getting back to wiki edits, I have some new good material on most of the castes mentioned above (mostly the prabhus and chitpawans but not deshathas and karhades) and will add it to the wiki pages as I need to return the books in a few weeks from now. BTW, do you know if 'Stories of Indian Saints' translated from marathi by Justin Abbott is considered a reliable source? It has a lot of information and details about the saints, especially marathi saints. I know Raj era sources are not allowed for castes but are they also prohibited for biographies ? Maybe Sitush might have an opinion on this.

Hi Acharya63, that was a long reply! I will briefly answer a few points that you raise.

1.As the Wikipedia editor said, Patil, Chaudhari,Kulkarni,Deshmukh, and Deshpande are titles of office holders doing specific government jobs.The families holding these hereditary jobs (watans} retained the titles as their surnames even after the watan system was abolished. So you do have Brahmins and Mahars having Patil as their surname. CKP also held the offices of Kulkarni and Deshpande and so you will find those surnames in that community.I can,however, assure you that Acharya,Pandit,Dixit,Joshi,Pathak etc. being associated with Hindu priesthood means you will not find non-brahmins with these surnames unless a non-brahmin family specifically adopted one of them as their surname in recent times. 2.Abbott translated Mahipati's books on the biographies of Hindu saints.Now Sitush will call the books hagiography rather than history and may not accept it as a reliable source.The original work predates British rule by at least a century.That's all for today.Thanks for contributing to Maharashtra related topics.

I know that Maratha principalities were British vassals post 1818; I have thought about it. Yet I included Maratha contributions towards society, literature, art etc. (post 1818 CE) for the below reason:

The word legacy implies leftover or remnant or footprint. Now, the Maratha contributions (such as their palaces, temples) although built under British suzerainty, still is a Maratha leftover. The British rule (1818 to 1947) was a federal one (just like today's India) with semi-autonomy to the princely states. I understand that the article is about Maratha Empire which ended in 1818 but post-1818 what remains is nothing but leftover or legacy. I don't think date of building a palace is that important as long as the palace was built during the semi-autonomous reign of a Maratha king.

Let me know your thoughts

Hello, just wanted to let you know that I'm working to address any issues which may count against Shivaji when I submit it for Good Article review later this year.

If you feel so inclined, your help would be welcome in finding citations for anything currently uncited, or removing it if we simply can't find a good site for it. I'm also going to read fully through some accounts of Shivaji to see if there are any significant issues that the article skips over. The article historically had a way of avoiding noting any weakness or compromise on the Maratha side, so when appropriate I'm trying to make sure coverage is NPOV.

If you have any general suggestions of things the article is missing, I'd welcome the input on the Talk page. Thanks as always for all your work helping keep India coverage sourced and NPOV!

As far as I can see, the prevailing citation style was {{sfn}}. - Sitush (talk) 17:05, 14 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-04-14T17:05:00.000Z","author":"Sitush","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Sitush-2018-04-14T17:05:00.000Z-Citations,_again","replies":["c-Jonathansammy-2018-04-15T18:20:00.000Z-Sitush-2018-04-14T17:05:00.000Z"]}}-->

Hey, I noticed that you moved all the images to the right for some reason. That makes relevant images appear in unrelated sections. Having them on either side makes the article look more streamlined. On the Mumbai page, for example, the images are placed on the left and right alternatively, I suggest we do that with Pune. Let me know your thoughts.

I think having images on both sides makes the text secondary to the images because your eyes are navigating left and right.

Mumbai has images, I assume the ones which were added earlier, alternating on both sides of the text. I personally like it, but we can leave them on one side.

Hey Sammy, You just added only 1 aspect of mahar caste which is a Hinduism aspect where they treat other people who don't have a varna or who has done something which is forbidden in Hinduism. like Mahar people are avarna according to Hinduism. and they eat beef that is one of reasonable why they were treated as Untouchables. but you haven't added anything about Mahar culture or their own history which is apart from Untouchable label given by upper caste hindus. Why they Worship Nagas? Or Why 30 Crore people believe they are Mulnivasis? The mahar history has been distorted by aryans, and other Invaders.

Hi!

I recently deleted some statements made on the Indian National Congress page since they were clearly biased. The likening of the Congress to a "family-firm" is clearly a statement meant to antagonize the party. The author in the rest of her book seems to have displayed significant bias against the Congress.

I think the likening of the party to a "family firm" can be stated as an opinion (suggested edit). I also think these mentions are unnecessary since there is a sub-section dealing with dynastic politics in the Congress.

Please respond so that we may arrive at a resolution of this issue.

MRRaja001 I saw you put Prabhakar Panshikar back in the list.However,I would not consider a Newspaper article necessarily a reliable source.I have personally known Prabhakar Panshikar's family for a very long time and know that they are karhade.I don't think there should be any haste in having him under Deshastha just based on that Illustrated Weekly article.You can certainly put him in in list of Maharashtrian brahmin or list of marathi people.Thanks.Jonathansammy (talk) 19:01, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-04-25T19:01:00.000Z","author":"Jonathansammy","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Jonathansammy-2019-04-25T19:01:00.000Z-Jonathansammy-2019-04-25T16:59:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hi Jonathansammy I think the article on Bal Gangadhar Tilak article is written from dalit point of view or anti brahmin point of view I think there should be more research on Lokmanya Tilak.

Hi Mahusha, as long as the content has reliable sources to back up the claims then there isn't much that can be done about the situation.For example,Tilak used his newspapers to criticize the inclusion of Mathematics in the curriculum of Huzurpaga girls high school in the 1880s.In your opinion, should this be included or not ? We should not never put anyone on a pedestal because nobody is perfect.Wikipedia biographies should not be hagiographies of the subject and should include all aspects of their life.Tilak was a great nationalist but he was also a social conservative in contrast to people like Dhondo Karve, Ranade,and Agharkar.I hope this helps.

Hi Jonathansammy, Hope you are doing well. Had a question about your recent edit here [2] If I am reading it correctly, Shiv Sena is supported by Marathas and Congress by Marathas and Kunbis. Moreover, Vora calls it the "Maratha party" since most MLAs of Shiv Sena are Maratha. Hence did not understand your edit. I think we should change it back to Maratha only. But wanted to write to you as I might have missed something while reading.

During the period of 1960-80s, Maharashtra was almost a one party state because of strong support by the Maratha-Kunbi community to the Congress or Congress break-away groups. In more recent times, with the rise of Shiv sena and lately BJP, outside the urban areas, the maratha vote has split.Shiv Sena originally was led by upper caste leaders and also drew support from non-maratha groups such as OBC. So saying it is a Maratha party is wrong. I have to look at the statistics to see what proportion of Shiv sena MLA are from Maratha community. We also have to compare that with proportion of BJP MLA are from Maratha-kunbi communities.

Dear Acharya63, Since you have worked on castes related articles on so long, you know how flexible the definition of Maratha is. I certainly would not put the statement that Jonathansammy (talk) 13:47, 13 August 2019 (UTC)Shiv sena is a Maratha party in the lede unless you first expand on it in the body of the article.Thanks.Jonathansammy (talk) 13:47, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-08-13T13:47:00.000Z","author":"Jonathansammy","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Jonathansammy-2019-08-13T13:47:00.000Z-Acharya63-2019-08-12T19:40:00.000Z","replies":["c-Acharya63-2019-08-18T04:59:00.000Z-Jonathansammy-2019-08-13T13:47:00.000Z"]}}-->

Jonathansammy, I know but that paper distinguishes between Kunbi and Maratha and he uses Kunbi elsewhere. I know other sources at times use the name to mean all Maharashtrians etc. Anyway I am not changing it because it looks like OBC also support the shiv sena which could include Kunbi.

you recently reverted the paragraph in marathi people the material was on Christian contribution in development of marathi literature, you either have improved article or given some attribution instead you reverted whole para. the coppied material was from same article. Also the sub article was about literature and british contribution in develop it further which you might not aware and thus the article is relevant. marshmir (talk) 17:49, January 2020 (UTC)

marshmir, If you check, you will see that I have contributed heavily to Marathi people as well as Marathi language articles on English wikipedia. All the christian contribution you see on the language page was mostly added by me. I also created the page on Dnyanodaya.The reverted material was the Marathi people article. Most of the missionaries were foreigners. You can add something regarding that but there is no point in copying a whole section from the language article. Also please remember to attribute in the edit summary even if it is from another wikipedia article.

Hi Jonathansammy, let's keep Iravati aside is Outlook also false. It's a fact that Brahmins make upto 10% of Total population of Maharashtra.

Hi MRRaja001 , We have discussed this in the past. Outlook can not be regarded as a reliable source.Also present day Maharashtra has huge population of non-Maharashtrians.

Hi MRRaja001 Yes, you can add content from Deshastha to Maharashtrian but but do it gradually and modify it if necessary.

Hello JonathanSammy, from your profile you seem to be a Marathi person. I am quite surprised to see that you are not accepting the new sources which portray Sambhaji in a positive manner. You must be also knowing about the works by many people such as VS Bendre and Kamal Gokhale on Sambhaji. I understand that Vishwas Patil and Shivaji Sawant are novelists but proper historians such as Bendre and Gokhale have done great analysis of Sambhaji's career much before them. Their work cannot be considered as novels. Please go and check these references as well. Jaysingrao Pawar etc. and others have also written historical accounts on Sambhaji which are not novels.

                    Other foreign editors like MatthewVanitas and Bonadea may not have authentic information about the Maratha Empire as they are not Indian. But you are Marathi, you can definitely have a look at these new Marathi sources as well. If they are not available on Google scholar etc., You can also access it in some other way as you are from Maharashtra. Charvak157 (talk) 06:21, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-06-06T06:21:00.000Z","author":"Charvak157","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Charvak157-2020-06-06T06:21:00.000Z-Article_on_Sambhaji","replies":[]}}-->

Hello JonathanSammy, please read this, I have also posted this on talk page of the article on Sambhaji, in the discussion (Sambhaji- old references vs new references)

Hello everyone, extending my argument about validity of old references about Sambhaji, I am presenting the comments on reliability of sources on the Marathas written by reputed historians V.S.Bendre and V.K.Rajwade, from the preface of Bendrey's book 'Malojiraje and Shahaji Maharaj' (pg 31-40) These will make it clear why I have been opposing the reliance of this article on the older references. This is a great extensive commentary on the reliability of the sources on the Maratha history.

        Start
     'We must understand the historical truth by assessing the quality, strengths and weaknesses of the evidences used to write  historical writings. These weaknesses are of two types

1) If the writer is biased, then he uses incomplete or wrong information and his writing will be weak and unreliable. 2) The accuracy of historical writings decreases with an increase in the time interval between the historical event and the time of writing. We also have to consider the human tendency of writing history from the author's own point of view.

People who are just writing the history and are not related to concerned historical figure only write about existing beliefs. Their writings cannot be considered as reliable as the writings of the people who were related to the historical figure. Hence, contemporary as well post-event 'bakhars' and 'haqeekats' are 'third class sources'. While contemporary reports and news letters are 'second class sources' In these second class sources, official newsletters, 'shakavalis', autobiographies or information deliberately acquired by other kingdoms etc. can be considered to be more reliable as compared other folklore type second class sources.

Evidences such as Official Letters of the officers, Letters of the families related to the historical event, contemporary accounts statements etc. can be considered as 'first class statements' for judging the historical truth.

By using the above principles in the case of the Maratha Empire 1) The letters of Mughals which tell the account of the Marathas are not as reliable as the letters of Shivaji-Sambhaji, as they already contain a biased point of view against their enemies. Still, it is wrong to ignore them completely.

2) The British newsletters about the Marathas were a good 'second class source' till the point when they were writing it from an impartial point of view. But, since the 18th century, when the British became the competitors of the Marathas, their letters started becoming more and more biased against the Marathas. Hence their reliability fell considerably.

The 'third class sources' such as 'Bakhars' and 'Haqeekats' are often written at the will of a person. Hence they are not backed by proper evidence, and should not be used to reconstruct history.

V.K.Rajwade in his book on 'sources of Maratha history' written around 1910, has clearly mentioned that 'You take any Bakhar in your hand and you will rarely find a bakhar having correct judgement of timeline of historical events. Imaginory Relations of mythological stories, Lack of printing etc. has resulted in creeping of many errors in those 'bakhars'. These bakhars often have exaggerated events without checking their historical validity.'

The bakhars have often given very short informations about 1) Pre-Shivaji and contemporary Muslim kingdoms. 2) Any campaign of Shivaji. 3) The family inter-relations and conditions in Bhosale or the Peshwa family. This information is completely confusing, contrasting, unrealistic, irrelevant that it can never be considered as true without the support of other sources.

If we go on trust the bakhars without the support of 'first class sources' then we are not able to differentiate between the true and false informations given in the Bakhars. Hence, if we write the history based on the Bakhars only, then due to lack of reliable sources, our attempts will mostly fail. Plus even if an event is described in the same way in multiple bakhars, still it cannot be considered true by the principle of majority. Hence, even one 'first class source' such as 'original document' is enough to negate the majority of the Bakhars. Hence, the principle of majority does not work here. A single 'original document' can be trusted more than any Maratha or foreign Bakhars or Bakhar like accounts.

     V.K.Rajwade has written about the Bakhars that the Bakhars within themselves can be classified as third class, second class and first class respectively.

All these Bakhars are useful in some way. 1) Sabhasad Bakhar 2) Malhar Ramrao's Bakhar 3) Shivdigvijaya Are the three most important Bakhars. Like other Bakhars, these Bakhars are also plagued in several aspects such as wrong judgement of timeline, ignorance about the capabilities of the ruler, exaggeration, lack of organized information etc. It is totally necessary to reach out till the roots of the Bakhar's writings to verify it properly before trusting them as history. Available versions of the Bakhars are often second or third versions of the original one, and hence are corrupted with addition of new information.

1) Sabhasad Bakhar is completely written on the basis of pure recall of information, hence it cannot be considered as a completely reliable source.

2) Malhar Ramrao's Bakhar also has certain shortcomings hence cannot be considered as valid.

3) Shivdigvijaya uses old letters but the author was not well trained in organising the information, hence it cannot be considered as a completely reliable source. Hence these 3 major Bakhars are not at all 'first class sources' for examining the Maratha history. The Muslim 'Tawarikhs' also seem to have similar shortcomings and hence are not a reliable source of information.

All these problems give rise to the question that, How can we verify the information in the Bakhars? The answer is Contemporary Marathi, Persian, Kannada, English, Portuguese letters are the only sources to crosscheck the information in the Bakhars. If these are not found then we will not have comprehensive results. And to date very few of such letters have been found.

Reputed historians such as Grant Duff also trusted these Bakhars. Hence information written by him or his students cannot be considered as reliable. These new sources of original letters have not been discovered yet, hence we can trust the information in the Bakhars only if it is verified with an original source.

The reader often fails to understand the historical truth after relying on the Bakhars. And every figure in the Maratha history has been affected to a level due to lack of original sources. Many Bakhar writers did not have access to multiple original sources which limited their sourcing, and led them to insert Imaginory events in the history.

In case of Chatrapati Sambhaji, I (V.S.Bendrey) have compared events and descriptions in the Bakhars and descriptions of the same events in 'original documents' to prove how the descriptions in the Bakhars are Imaginory, Unrealistic and exaggerated.

(My own personal note{charvak157} - I don't have the book written by Bendre on Sambhaji with me right now, I will mention all these comparisons by Bendrey as soon as I get the book.)

In his conclusion V.K.Rajwade has mentioned that The sources of Maratha History have been written, compiled and published in a disorganised manner. These sources should have been presented in an organized manner. These poorly verified sources can definitely fool the person who is making his assumptions about the history on the basis of these sources.'

         End

Chhatrapati Sambhaji's history has been written by most authors such as Grant Duff, and other reputed historians such as Jadunath Sarkar, G.S.Sardesai etc who worked well before 1960's obviously had to rely on whatever sources were available in the forms of the Bakhars. As I have mentioned in my previous talk, authentic sources about Sambhaji have been discovered only after 1960. And most of these have not been translated into English. Hence, the earlier reputed historians whose work on the Marathas is considered to be seminal were not able to judge Sambhaji properly. These old Bakhars and sources have a portrayed Sambhaji like an imaginary, fiction like character in malicious way, ignoring his capabilities and contributions as a ruler. The bakhars often unrealistic accounts about Sambhaji which bewilder the reader. There are many examples supporting this. I will state one example here. According to the Bakhars, Sambhaji executed his stepmother Soyarabai. By sealing her in a wall alive. But 'Sambhaji's letter to Bakre Shastri of Kudal' in which he expresses grief over the death of Soyarabai. If he executed Soyarabai then why would he grieve for her death? Plus evidences indicating that Soyarabai was alive much after the execution of ministers involved in the plot are available.

Such misinformations about his character have been proven wrong in the past 50-60 years. And exploits of his military, political and administrative achievements have come to the fore in these time which were completely ignored before.

I sign off for today, and complete my today's argument. @MatthewVanitas, @Bonadea, @JonathanSammy please read this. Thank you so much.

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Joseywales1961, and I thank you for your contributions.

Hi, I just without consensus moved Poornachandra Tejaswi to K. P. Poornachandra Tejaswi, I want you to undo it. I moved it as a preventive measure against any novice editor doing so; and since the Kannada Wikipedia community is virtually non existent, at least on English Wikipedia, the move would be go unnoticed for a long time.

I assumed from my little experience that if you perform a move and undo it, it will take only a consensus to redo it again. But now I discovered that I am not being to undo it. I am posting this message on different seasoned editors I know, so don't be surprised if somebody else it before you.

Hi, "by whom" tags are only used in cases of weasel words.

It is not necessary to have an agent for every passive verb form. The meaning is clear in the quoted sentence, it means by the general population in the area studied by the anthropologist. A direct quotation should never contain a Weasel Word tag, as they are specifically connected to incorrect use of wikivoice.

If you feel that there needs to be a greater qualification of the claims made by the scholars in question, feel free to contextualise with more sourced material, but in this case a "by whom" tag is not appropriate.

Lonar Lake is a lake formed by the meteorite impact, it is in Mahrashtra. I think the world have only 3 of such and Mahrashtra's lake is one of them. Its images are present in wiki commons. I suggest you to add this info in geography section with image. It is India's only lake formed by meteorite impact. Plus Unapdev & Sunapde a have natural hot water springs.

Dear @Jonathansammy:, I was going through some pages so I would like to see your attention on these pages like Chitpavan, Marathi Brahmin etc. It has undergone lots of changes ( some bit controversial) and I don't know if that has been contested. Since your account suggests you are very good in Maharashtra related topics and may be in history of Marathi Brahmins as well. Please do look at the changes on Chitpavan and on Marathi Brahmin page.

Hi Jonathansammy, I have seen your request for a reassessment for the article BAIF Development Research Foundation. I have reassessed it but unfortunately the article remains as a start.

Dear, I am writing to request your help with a translation project for a Wikipedia page. The page is currently written in Hindi, and I am looking to have it translated into English so that it can reach a wider audience.

I understand that you are fluent in both Hindi and English, and I am wondering if you would be willing to assist me with this translation project. The Wikipedia page is about newspaper, and it contains valuable information that I believe should be accessible to a broader audience.

I would be grateful if you could let me know if you are interested in helping with this translation project. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.

Thank you for your time and consideration, and I look forward to hearing back from you soon.

Hi, I was editing this page to correct some technical errors, then noticed that you had recently reverted my previous edits. (I though this article seemed familiar!) So I thought I should explain my purpose.

I'm trying to clear the list of pages with footnote-related errors. Currently there are seven footnotes on this page that do not point to a reference - Ghozal (3), Mookerji, Bahuguna, Srinivasa-Raghavan and The Economist. Although these sources may not reference Maharashtra directly, they do reference the customs and rituals discussed in the article.

Also, a sentence in the article begins "Ghozal wrote...". As a casual reader, I have no idea who Ghozal is or why their writing matters. Perhaps a bit of clarification would help - "The historian/anthropologist/cricket player Ghozal wrote..." - and then point to the source of the quotation.

I will leave any further editing to you. Andy02124 (talk) 16:32, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230814163200","author":"Andy02124","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Andy02124-20230814163200-Religion_in_Maharashtra","replies":[]}}-->

Andy02124, You say and I quote "Currently there are seven footnotes on this page that do not point to a reference - Ghozal (3), Mookerji, Bahuguna, Srinivasa-Raghavan and The Economist. Although these sources may not reference Maharashtra directly, they do reference the customs and rituals discussed in the article." I deleted those references because they don't mention Maharashtra. Indirectly they may be relevant but citing them would be regarded as WP:OR or WP: Synthesis and not allowed on Wikipedia.I am sure these sources would be OK on a page on Hinduism or Religion in India.

Thanks.Jonathansammy (talk) 18:59, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230814185900","author":"Jonathansammy","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Jonathansammy-20230814185900-Religion_in_Maharashtra","replies":["c-Andy02124-20230815145100-Jonathansammy-20230814185900"]}}-->

I fail to understand your logic for removing the reference but not the associated footnote.

For example, the sentence fragment "Studies show that most Indians' traditional views on caste, religion, and family background have remained unchanged when it came to marriage," is followed by a footnote pointing to a work by Bahuguna. Currently, there is no such work cited and so the footnote raises a harv/sfn error.

Actually, the sentence itself is not specifically about Maharashtra and might be considered as outside the remit of the article, which is Religious demographics. Perhaps the whole section, "Ceremonies, rituals, and festivals", is not germane to an article about demographics.

As of now, the page remains on the error list (Category:Harv and Sfn no-target errors) and I will move on to another of the 10,000 items on that list.

Ajayraj890, No it is not a personal rule. The rule was adopted by consensus more than ten years ago. James Grant Duff wrote his book nearly two hundred years ago.

I just went through this paper shared by the user in the GSB talk page which seems to be answer for all ambiguity in the GSB page.If you don’t have access to JSTOR.I can share it for you or I can share the content for you.I am planning to develop that page without ambiguity(I found a lot of ambiguity mainly with regards to Varna status-There is no clarity) I want your help if you don’t mind as I don’t have experience in editing wiki.

Editor3131, Thanks for sharing the paper.

@JonathansammyAs per that link sock means having alternative accounts.Be assured I don’t have any.Ya I have opened this account way back 2 months before but editing was a big task here!

Anyhow are you there in the telegram or any other medium of communication?.I am really feeling this editing wikipedia somewhat irritating.I have couple of resources in pdf don’t know how to share it here.See the content given by that user from the above link paper it is there in the talk page in the form of edit request.Even he gave one edit request mentioning Vedic ritual expertise of GSB.Seems like this GSB page is interesting.

We don't need any private email or messaging apps here. Please share the link here or on the GSB page, and then I or other editors can try to get the full paper.Wikipedia does not use any primary sources so whatever you want to share has to have been published in a reputable journal, and thus be a reilable source. I hope this helps.

Dear @JonathansammyI have read both the papers of Rosalind O'Hanlon on Maharashtra(2013 and 2010).Really well explained by this author.So when I tried to edit it showed “unable to edit to avoid vandalism”.

So can I frame the sentence without plagiarism and with valid reference from this paper?

can you copy paste those sentence in GSB page?(Hope you have access to it!)

@Editor3131:, please share the quotes and page numbers from the source on the GSB page. The Chavan source is a Raj era source not 1991. If a modern source quotes Chavan then we can use the modern source to give Chavan's view. I do not understand last names much but isnt Chavan a Rajput name? Or is it a GSB name? The Chavan book seems to be like the one written by a caste member.LukeEmily (talk) 02:09, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240119020900","author":"LukeEmily","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-LukeEmily-20240119020900-Editor3131-20240117131700","replies":["c-Editor3131-20240119035900-LukeEmily-20240119020900"]}}-->

@LukeEmilyChavan ?Me and @Jonathansammy are discussing about the Rosalind O'Hanlon paper.2010(Explains) about the movement of Maharashtra Brahmins Deshastha,Shenavi,Chitpavan and Karhade to Benares(Internal rivalry).2013 explains about the Sayhadrikhand(The information about this I found in Gaud saraswat page too)

If you want info about the book which you are requesting definitely I can dig it up.But I am unable to edit the Gaud Saraswat Brahmin page(Just I am exploring Wikipedia).So it may take bit time.

I dont think internal rivalry was the only factor since Sitush has pointed out that there exist modern sources that do not group the Shenavis(Saraswats) along with Brahmins - for example they say "Brahmins Marathas and Saraswats" . They dont say "Brahmins marathas and Chitpavans". The Brahmins of Maharashtra(Karhade Deshastha and Chitpavan) have been consistent in denying the Brahmin clain of Shanavis and the Shankaracharyas in the west coast of India, who were the judges for a dispute, have also not supported the Shenavis. Secondly, the dispute about GSB did not end in Peshwa era. But we can discuss this on the GSB talk page not here. Please provide quotes on the GSB talk page so they can be incorporated in the page. I think you should be able to edit the talk page of GSB even if you are a new editorLukeEmily (talk) 04:22, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240119042200","author":"LukeEmily","type":"comment","level":9,"id":"c-LukeEmily-20240119042200-Editor3131-20240119035900","replies":[]}}-->

Dear @Jonathansammy, In the talk page of Gaud Saraswat I have given the details about their Varna judgement completely with historical proofs from banarus Vedic scholars and Banaras Maharashtrian Brahmin leaders with analysis from popular sociologist. Sayadrikhand’s indepth analysis has been mentioned there Since the content and analysis solves maximum ambiguity in that page.I invite you to review the same. 2409:40F2:1037:B004:84C9:7F2C:7962:9ACE (talk) 13:49, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240131134900","author":"2409:40F2:1037:B004:84C9:7F2C:7962:9ACE","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-2409:40F2:1037:B004:84C9:7F2C:7962:9ACE-20240131134900-Invitation_to_review_the_content","replies":["c-Ekdalian-20240131141400-2409:40F2:1037:B004:84C9:7F2C:7962:9ACE-20240131134900"]}}-->

Hello @Jonathansammy. In the Maratha Empire move request, you seem to have accidentally voted "Oppose" to my suggestion of moving it to Maratha Confederacy, while you say there that you are neutral. Please fix that to be "Comment" or "Neutral" at the very beginning instead of "Oppose" if you are neutral.

Hi Jonathansammy!

I'm the editor-in-chief of the WikiJournal of the Humanities.

Given your experience with Wikipedia and understanding of academia, I'm emailing to ask whether you might be interested in getting involved as an editor for the WikiJournal of Humanities. It's modelled on the successful Wikipedia-integrated journals, the WikiJournal of Medicine, and the WikiJournal of Science. Our editorial board covers a range of fields and expertise, aiming to cover disciplines across the humanities, arts, and social sciences.

Our approach combines the rigour of academic peer review with the extensive reach of an encyclopedia. Consequently, it is an excellent way to achieve public engagement and outreach while impacting public understanding of complex scholarly topics. Articles undergo peer review and are subsequently published in both standard academic PDF format and directly onto Wikipedia, often getting over 100,000 views annually. This enhances the encyclopedia's scientific and factual accuracy and offers academics citable, indexed publications. Moreover, it enables significantly broader dissemination compared to traditional scholarly publishing methods.

The time commitment is flexible. An editor would generally dedicate 2-10 hours per month to a range of activities.

Please let me know if this aligns with your interests, or if you'd like to know more.

Your experience and expertise would be highly appreciated. Fransplace...

I see that you made some edits to Amils a while ago. Perhaps you could check on some recent edits by Hemantpnd (talk · contribs), who made a large addition with a misleading edit summary. I saw one paragraph that was clearly not encyclopedic, beginning with "My father", and it was tempting to revert the whole thing, but there is probably some valid content, and the article had been quite short before this. 183.89.250.246 (talk) 18:29, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240819182900","author":"183.89.250.246","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-183.89.250.246-20240819182900-Amils","replies":["c-Hemantpnd-20240820091400-183.89.250.246-20240819182900","c-Hemantpnd-20240820092200-183.89.250.246-20240819182900"]}}-->
