• @Amrapahal Pahanswan: ure welcome.If you want me to help you to improve any other article related to bihar.Dont shy and just tell on my talk page.Heba Aisha (talk) 16:41, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

Sister, I have published article on Jagdanand Singh giving a citation by The Economics Times describing his caste，political affluence, till it was deleted. Amrapahal Pahanswan (talk) 16:48, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

• This is because you copied the whole material from source u listed there.Misplaced Pages takes copyright violation very seriously.So you need to write in ur own words.Second ... caste of a living person can be told only if in the source they say themselves that they belong to that particular caste group.If this is not done it amounts to WP:BLP violation.Also you should not use words like great, excellent, extraordinary etc as one of Misplaced Pages policy called WP:Puffery and WP:POV tells us to maintain neutrality while writing an article.Start once again that article. ...good luck.

Majority of People who use " Yadav " surname in Haryana are " Ahirs" only. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Har1990 (talk • contribs) 20:31, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

I have added another source that clearly mentions " 114 were Ahirs" — Preceding unsigned comment added by Har1990 (talk • contribs) 20:33, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

Anyways I have removed the Rezang La section for now. I have also removed the image as there was no image before.Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Har1990 (talk • contribs) 20:54, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

I have removed picture.There was no picture in past and I don't think its important to have image of particular individual in this article — Preceding unsigned comment added by Har1990 (talk • contribs) 21:11, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

Picture of Ahir King Rao Tula Ram was added . Then someone changed it and added picture of some Individual based on British Raj records. Its better not to have any image here. If you wanna include it , please tell why its necessary.Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Har1990 (talk • contribs) 21:40, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

Peasants and Monks in British India, William R. Pinch

Dear Sis, You are doing awesome work on Misplaced Pages. congrats! BTW, I noticed you used Peasants and Monks in British India by William R. Pinch at several places.It is freely available here. Please see https://publishing.cdlib.org/ucpressebooks/view?docId=ft22900465 Also, for some "pure shudra" castes in early 1800s , please see https://publishing.cdlib.org/ucpressebooks/view?docId=ft22900465&chunk.id=s1.2.11&toc.depth=1&toc.id=ch2 See "Buchanan, in the early nineteenth century, had included in the term “pure shudra” the well-known designations of Kayasth, Koiri, Kurmi, Kahar, Goala, Dhanuk (archers, cultivators, palanquin bearers), Halwai (sweets vendor), Mali (flower gardener), Barai (cultivator and vendor of betel-leaf), Sonar (goldsmith), Kandu (grain parcher), and Gareri (blanket weavers and shepherds).". If you click on the number 108, you will notice that he is talking about Bihar and Patna only. 108. Buchanan, Bihar and Patna, 1811–1812, 1:329–39; Martin, Eastern India, 2:466–70. Buchanan notes that in Gorakhpur both Halwais and Kandus were included as Vaishyas and thus considered twice-born (Martin, Eastern India, 2:465). Also, that chapter refers to North India only. Hence as a general suggestion, we need to be careful before generalizing and need to qualify these groups with "Bihar/Patna" as they may be under different classification elsewhere whenever we use this chapter. As an example, this may not apply to same caste names from other states. For example, Sonar in Maharashtra came from Brahmins and were called Daivadnya Brahmins - and they had thread ceremonies too. I was looking at some of your recent edits and noticed that you were generalizing this statement for disparate groups on some pages. Hence the suggestion. Hope the link helps. Best Regards,LukeEmily (talk) 21:46, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

• well thanks..... i will see sources you share.....i Am sick of people trying to glorify caste by removing images etc etc. My edits are on the basis of few books i have read on Bihar's caste and polity which i use in almost all edits.I will see these sources too.ThanksHeba Aisha (talk) 23:45, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

You mentioned some editors do not like SUNY press which is an academic press hence I was surprised. Do you know any instances where they have reverted edits from SUNY press? The authors of SUNY press are usually well known scholars.LukeEmily (talk) 22:40, 14 August 2020 (UTC)

• No, not any incident yet.But I have seen them inadvertently reverted sourced content if some discrepancies are found.Heba Aisha (talk) 23:59, 14 August 2020 (UTC)

AWARD for you

		The Curator Barnstar
		I have seen your recent activities.YOU have improved many caste articles by putting suitable images which are generally hard to find.SO you deserve it.CONGO 106.67.90.215 (talk) 02:20, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

I didn't knew that....adding images brings dis 😀Heba Aisha (talk) 02:59, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

Hi Heba, thank you for your edits

My respects to the superior knowledge that you have attained over the years. Thanks for contributing to wikipedia. I saw your recent edits of Kayastha page. You have added a few theories that claim that Bhumihar and Kayastha of Bihar are Shudra. You probably do understand that these contentions have been debated for ages and both these groups have proved beyond doubt their high ritual status in religious as well as legal courts. Nevertheless the contention did exist and you are welcome to add the same to the page. But to be fair, the other side of the contention should also be fairly added. The decision of Banaras pandits regarding these may be impartiality added.

As per Padma Purana, Bhavishya Purana and the decision of Banaras Pandits in the year 1779 AD on varna status of various sub-groups of Kayastha, they are considered to be Brahmins.

Add the same to Varna/classification section of the page, if you find it useful and relevant. Thanks in advance. I hope you continue the good work.

Vikram Q1W2 (talk) 09:14, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

• @Vikram Q1W2: Hi first of all thanks for saying all this.But,after talking with the senior editors on Misplaced Pages like Sitush and Utcursch(He is an administrator) i came to know that pre independence era sources on caste related pages are not considered neutral sources as for example: Todd used to write about Rajputs and most of the later historians recognise him as biased author.Same is the case with various communities as those who were close to Britishers due to various reasons tried to prove their higher status and upward mobilisation was evident.As for example: The Kushwaha community, they are also shudra but they tried to assume kshatriya status due to their closeness to the british provided their role in opium production.

If you have doubt then you can ask the above two editors i mentioned or can discuss on Misplaced Pages india related page discussion forum.If i add they will revert it sooner or later as source you provided is of period before 1947.Heba Aisha (talk) 09:36, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

No issues, I can provide you a post-1947 book which refers to this letter. Will that help you be impartial? Vikram Q1W2 (talk) 09:43, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

• Will see and if quality of the source i mean publication is good i must add.Heba Aisha (talk) 09:46, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

Yes it is a standard book. Milton Israel’s book of 1987 refers to this translation of Gupte of 1779 AD letter of Banaras Pandits to Peshwa Darbar. Vikram Q1W2 (talk) 09:58, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

• What new things you want to be added??Heba Aisha (talk) 10:02, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

On the other hand, as per Padma Purana, Bhavishya Purana and the decision of Banaras Pandits in the year 1779 AD on varna status of various sub-groups of Kayastha, they are considered to be Brahmins.

Add the same to Varna/classification section of the Kayastha page. Thanks in advance. I hope you continue the good work. Vikram Q1W2 (talk) 10:17, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

• Bro just see the section above the verna section in Kayastha article.....the same source and the same thing is already thereHeba Aisha (talk) 14:35, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
• Also, see last passage of varna section....here also CKP is noted as equal to brahmins and its clearly written dereHeba Aisha (talk) 14:49, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

I can't see these sources- anywhere on Kayastha page nor in the reference list. Which page are you looking at? Even if they are there reformatting may be done, since new regional sources have been recently added by you. In my opinion, the above mentioned statement with sources may be added before or after your additions, to present the complete contention. Hope you appreciate the concern. Vikram Q1W2 (talk) 14:57, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

• source 23 is the book of the same author.second I can't write in exactly same way i.e Descision of banaras pundits it will be the violation of WP:POV.Also i am sure padma purana and other purana as verification will not be liked by senior editors so i don't want my edits to be reverted.see for edample Kudumbar article.Here also people who were concerned wrote a lot of good things and Sitush reverted all those things in such a manner that now nothing is there.check the history of that article. YOU shud pray that they don't examine Srivastava article. I doubt they can do similar thing with that too.So chill as some of the sentence still write Kayastha as brahmins.You just glance through their edit history you will know which type of sources they don't wantHeba Aisha (talk) 15:14, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

Hey bro, let me give it to you straight, you should pray that your impersonation as a women or a muslim to spread caste and religion based hatred is not discovered soon.

Restore your edits. But add proper sources like Kamangiri art article, which is unsourced. Secondly, do not make changes on gut feeling like you did here.
