Hey, you're an admin I know :) There's a big and nasty backlog at WP:RM, do you think you could find an admin to take care of it? Ashibaka tock 21:49, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

Not redundant
On WikiProject Userboxes/Delete requests you listed a couple of entries as "Not redundant". Although their "What links here" did show one or two entries, they were actually already fixed. The "What links here" is a little dodgey, to get rid of the entries they needed a blank save (null edit, where you save a page without changing it). --Commander Keane 22:39, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

Re: Previous Account?
I have researched and edited before on Wikipedia not using a username. I have had a lot of expierence with computers, and that helps with these kinds of programs. I also get this stuff much faster than many others. So my awnser is no, but I have used this site many times before.

Voting on FAC
When voting on WP:FAC and supporting articles please remember to include a reason for your vote. Just saying 'Support' will probably mean your vote will be discounted or ignored when the final decision is made on wether an article becomes featured or not. Thanks! — Wackymacs 16:27, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Sorry you got to be exposed to that bundle of joy
Thats what we all get for me trying to be friendly and warning people about 3rr instead of just reporting it. :( --Syrthiss 19:38, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks

Rajput
Dear Sir,

This page is about the Rajput people - the valiant people of the region which today is called Rajasthan, who gained their popularity and respect, because of their bravery, opposition to invaders and upholding of Dharma. The discussion on whether only these people are Kshatriyas or whether the space can be shared with other fighter communities of Hindu fold like Yadavs, Jats, Gurjars etc. is of religious domain. Here, we should consider only Hindu Rajput community, as commonly understood, and leave out other people.

Discussion of Rajputs as a 'race' or 'tribe' etc. is futile. There is no scholarly agreed view on the descent of the these people. It is assumed that they were feudatories of Gurjara-Prathihara kingdom, and started on their own upon the disintegration of the kingdom. Their great saga begins only in mid-late first millenium CE and their military accomplishments have been covered in detail.

I understand that there might be some Mohamedans today, who were once Rajput, but post-conversion they are just Mohamedans. They've lost their caste on account of their failure to defend the dharma and capitulating in front of the enemy (Sufi conversion and other tales, notwithstanding). Even if we skip the religious angle, the argument of Muslim Rajput does not have any credibility from practical POV also. The children born to converts were not known as Rajputs but as Muslims. People who insist on putting Mohamedans in this space should provide reference of some great king, feudatory etc. who went about as Rajput even after conversion. Going by the slippery logic, even Jehangir would be Rajput, since he was born to Rajput mother. But, History as told by Mughal chroniclers, records him as only Turk (or Tork, as it goes in Persian).

My request to you is not to allow this page to be vandalized by these people. Especially, when now there is a Wiki page on Muslim Rajputs (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_Rajputs). People are welcome to post their blinkered History there.

Hi Firefox
Dear Firefox,

Thanks for your encouraging welcome message and kind words! I'm still new to the forum, still finding my way around :-) I would like to apologise for the oversight of not signing my name, will take care next time. I just saw the arbitration issue and jumped to the conclusion that there is a jury oput there to decide the Historicity of Muslim claims to Rajputhood, and more importantly, whether such claims will be entertained on the page. I believe, you are looking at the dispute in some other capacity, so please ignore my earlier comment. I have no intention of influencing you, one way or the other :-)

Anyways, nice interacting with you. Take care!
