Your contributed article, Siraiki spellings


Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Siraiki spellings. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Saraiki dialect. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Saraiki dialect – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 15:53, 3 February 2014 (UTC)

Spelling
The spelling of Sarakai (or Sirakai as you prefer) is sourced to
 * A.H. Dani, Sindhu-Sauvira: "A glimpse into the early history of Sind" In Hameeda Khusro (ed), Sind Through The Centuries (Karachi: Oxford University Press, 1981) pp. 35-42

This appears to be a reliable source. If you would like to challenge this source to offer a better spelling, you will have to provide an equally reliable source. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 15:57, 3 February 2014 (UTC)

Siraiki spellings
Dear sir I don't know who are you .If you are author of Siraiki articles .You will not admit my arguments due to your interests. although my humble submissions are as under 1-Dani is not a linguist .He did not know about origin of Siraiki language 2-Mahabharata is not a historical book .Its main parts are myths 3-Sauvera is not historical kingdom 4-Al-Beroni did not said Siraiki was language of Sauvira 5-Several Arab travelers reached in this area but no one told about Siraiki language and Sauvera kingdon.They did't tell us about language of Sauvera that it was Siraiki. There is no one linguist who wrote about origin of Siraiki like as smirnov schakle etc https://www.worldcat.org/search?q=siraiki&qt=owc_search

Before sometimes there were Siraiki spellings in Wikipedia and there was no origin of Siraiki as Sauvera.It is is due to some conflict between Siraiki area in Pakistan due political issue of Siraiki and Bahawalpur provinces--Magsi baloch (talk) 12:38, 4 February 2014 (UTC)


 * If you look at the history of my contributions, you will see that I have no particular interest in the Saraiki (or Siraiki) language. As a matter of fact, I had never heard of it prior to my interaction with you.  You may or may not have valid points regarding the spelling of this language.  I have no expertise in the area, so I really couldn't say.  What I can say is that there is an ostensibly reliable source cited for the etymology of the name "Saraiki".  If you would like to challenge that source, you will need to provide reliable sources of your own.  The best venue for such a discussion would be at Talk:Saraiki, where other users interested and knowledgeable on the topic can weigh in.  Simply working your way through Wikipedia and changing all of the spellings of this word without a discussion is not really productive.  Wikipedia works by consensus; controversial changes must be discussed before they will be accepted.  WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 13:11, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
