Kashmiri Pandits
I have had to remove your edit to the List of Kashmiri Pandits. The person whom you added is still living and for these situations we have a biographies of living people policy. In this particular situation, caste is commonly thought to be the same as ethnicity and therefore we require not just that the statement is verifiable using a citation of a reliable source but something more: the person has to self-identify as being of that caste. A fine-tuned version of the policy can be seen at WP:BLPCAT, and an example of why we need it is Amitabh Bachchan, whom people have in the past tried to claim as being a member of a specific caste but who has himself rejected the entire notion of caste. I hope that this makes some sense, but feel free to raise any queries that you may have. - Sitush (talk) 20:21, 1 May 2012 (UTC)
