An editor thinks something might be wrong with this page. They can't be arsed to fix it, but can rest assured that they've done their encyclopedic duty by sticking on a tag.
Please allow this tag to languish indefinitely at the top of the page, since nobody knows exactly what the tagging editor was worked up about.

Caste promotion account

Hello, please look at this user he is editing majority particular caste related articles and is heavily using doubtful references. He is Rajput promoting account only. Check his contributions.

War article without any authentic source

Please once see this Battle of Mandan page. Not a single source looks credible. 2 out of 3 the sources are even low rated on Google books and one is by a caste historian.

References

1) Hooja, Rima (2006). A History of Rajasthan. Rupa and company.

2) Sinh, Ranbir (2001). History of Shekhawats. p. 280.

3) Meharda, B.L. Territory, Polity, and Status- A Study of Shekhawats.

Here 1st source is from some Rupa company, other 2 are from caste writers not credible historians.

This whole article is a propoganda against reality. Please User:Sitush check it.

Baidya

Hey Sitush, I apologize for disturbing you. We have had disagreements regarding possible original research and the addition of certain content in the Baidya article. I have also initiated an RFC there. Thanks, — Satnam2408 18:47, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Liz 07:16, 12 February 2024 (UTC)

RCSRICE (talk) 08:32, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

RCSRICE, why do you think that an experienced and neutral editor of our community, Sitush would try to degrade any particular caste or community! Basically, many users/editors are here only trying to promote their own caste, and we are here to protect such caste promotion/glorification! Sitush is mostly inactive nowadays; that's the reason, I replied here on behalf of the Misplaced Pages community. Ekdalian (talk) 13:34, 23 February 2024 (UTC)

Thoughts on reliability of source

Is Robert Sewell's work, A Forgotten Empire (Vijayanagar), a reliable source? From what I have read Sewell was a civil servant and his record keeping of the Buddha of stupa was criticized by Hoock, Holger (2010). Empires of the Imagination: Politics, War and the Arts in the British World, 1750-1850. Profile Books. pp. 338–341. --Kansas Bear (talk) 20:50, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

@Kansas Bear I've only read bits of it but wasn't impressed. It would fail WP:HISTRS and the spirit of WP:RAJ. As far as I am aware, he was just one of the many enthusiastic amateur "scholars" serving British administrative interests in India at the time. There were all sorts of them - ones interested in linguistics, comparative religions, history, archaeology, scientific racism etc. Best to avoid him, I think, even if no more recent scholarship exists for whatever the statement may be. - Sitush (talk) 21:00, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
