@Arjayay, does this rule also apply to all other pages? You mean all the people listed by other caste groups such as Rajputs have their own pages on english wikipedia and they are clearly mentioned as Rajputs with an authentic reference. The Real Rana (talk) 04:32, 26 December 2017 (UTC)

Orphaned references in List of Gurjars
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of List of Gurjars's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Member Profile": From Virendra Singh (politician):  From Yashpal Singh (politician):  From Satveer Singh Gurjar:  

Reference named "Candidate affidavit": From Satveer Singh Gurjar:  From Virendra Singh (politician):  

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. Feel free to remove this comment after fixing the refs. AnomieBOT ⚡ 10:16, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

the list is compltely biased and filled with misinformation, 1st it doesnt include famous important politician who are currently serving as ministers not some MLAs which are included in the list "Krishan pal Gurjar" however includes former mps and mlas, then it doesnt have another name Ramesh bidhuri current Mp from south delhi who clearly belongs to gurjar clan "Bidhuri" his surname is more than enough, what is amusing is that rajesh pilot is also bidhuri his name is in the list, clearly there is some selectiveness overhere instead of information Adrexman (talk) 08:39, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
