Moderator is no Special Admin

While you guys are having a revert war, I wish to get one thing perfectly straight. Why do you expect Moderator to do everything for you? Is it because of his username. You need to get one thing very clear, as far as I know, Moderator3000 is not an admin, he has no powers the rest of us don't have and he may not have full knowledge of Misplaced Pages policies. I suggest you ask User:Nichalp, or User:Gurubrahma, who are respected admins. Here's a list of Indian Admins. Nobleeagle (Talk) 08:44, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

It has shown what a name can achieve.I am thinking of having Administrator2000 as my ID.surely people will respect me.Holywarrior 09:37, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Respect has to be earned. Using titles does not gain you respect here. =Nichalp «Talk»= 06:01, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Don't bet on it. "Moderator3000" has been banned indefinitely for his confusing and misleading username. That's not the way to go. --Cyde↔Weys 06:02, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Prominent historical figures

Article on Bedi clan has been created.

The following text regarding has been restored. It is quite significant.

Many prominent historical figures have emerged from the Khatri. All ten Sikh Gurus were Khatri, belonging to the Bedi, Trehan, Bhalla and Sodhi subcastes. Raja Todar Mal was a Tandon Khatri who codified the revenue collection system as Revenue Minister for Akbar. Haqiqat Rai was a Puri Khatri whose martyrdom was celebrated on Basant Panchami in Lahore until independence. Hari Singh Nalwa, an Uppal Khatri, was a prominent general under Maharaja Ranjit Singh. The father and son pair of the Diwans Sawan Mal and Mul Raj Chopra were successive governors of Multan under Ranjit Singh. The former instituted vast improvement in agriculture, while the latter was instrumental in leading the revolt against the British to prevent the annexation of the Sikh kingdom into the East India Company territory.

Administrators

Hello, there seems to have been some confusion over who is and who is not an administrator here. To check whether or not someone is an admin, type their username in Special:Listusers. If "sysop" appears next to their username, then they are an admin. If it does not, they are not. (example) Prodego 00:41, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

The Indian Diaspora in Central Asia and Its Trade 1550-1900.

I recommend "The Indian Diaspora in Central Asia and Its Trade 1550-1900". By Scott Levi. Leiden: Brill Academic Publishers, 2002.

A reviews of the book appears at

Diaspora Khatris had migrated to central Asia, but did not originate there.

Problem with edits by 156.80.102.158

The aryan invasion theory etc. belongs elsewhere. This article is about the Khatris, based on well-known documented facts.

I have seem claims of people claiming to be superior because they came from elsewhere or have a lighter colored skin. These views have no place in this article. The following are not appropriate.

were scattered in the northern areas of Afghanistan and southern Tajikistan (in ancient times these areas were known as Bactria and Sogdiana.

All Kshatriya/Khatris and Brahmins are descendants of Aryan people originating in Central Asia (related to Iranian Aryan tribes of Persia/Iran). They migrated/invaded the Indian subcontinent around the year 3000-1500 B.C., often referred to as the Aryan Invasion).

This article is about Khatris, but it not about claiming that they have exclusive authority to rule.

Khatris were for many centuries the only group that made up the government administration roles including the rulers, kings, landlords, and governors, as well as the civil administration officials.

Aroras and other similar communities are brothers and friends of Khatris. Aroras are a distinct group, with their own unique history. There is a separate article on Aroras.

Finally Brother 156.80.102.158 - why did you insert the POV tag?

--Vikramsingh 21:20, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

VIKRAM SINGH, WHICH POV TAG ARE YOU REFERRING TOO?.......I AGREE, I WILL TAKE OUT THE STATEMENTS ABOVE, SINCE THIS IS SOLELY ABOUT KHATRIS, BUT THE FACTS REMAIN TRUE ABOUT THOSE STATEMENTS ABOVE....LOOK AT THE ROLES OF KHATRIS, AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO BRAHMINS....WHY DOES NO OTHER CASTE/GROUP HAVE THAT RELATIONSHIP TO BRAHMINS? OBVIOUSLY THERE MUST BE SOME DEEP SEEDED HISTORY WITH THESE TWO GROUPS, CORRECT?

The tag: "The factual accuracy of this article is disputed"

Please let us know which specific facts are disputed. Please note that there is a list of references at the end.--Vikramsingh 21:28, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Have you read the talk page archive, when there is a revert war like what's going on now, the article is considered disputed. Nobleeagle (Talk) 01:14, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Reversion

You guys revert everyone without even thinking about what you're reverting. Read WP:LEAD at least, read WP:3RR. The article needs a lead section and you guys are removing it. I inserted the Caste Infobox onto the article and was reverted...this is a pointless waste of time if you guys maintain this attitude. Nobleeagle (Talk) 01:14, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
