Swaminarayan
Wasn't referring to you in the 'Talk' page but to our good ol' friend Haribhagat since he feels compelled to instill his view of Swaminarayanism on world. Moksha88 21:36, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

It is my view but more importantly it is what the scriptures state unlike your views which are not backed up by scriptures.

Haribhagat 23:16, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

In reply to request
Jai Swaminarayan,

I too am a devotee of Bhagwan Swaminarayan and only came into satsang about 5 years ago, but i take scriptural reference and maharajs words seriously. Also i have studied literature from all Swaminarayan groups and made critical analysis on each one using vachanamrut references. Yes i can accept that you have different views and it is up to you what group you wish to follow. My concern is that acharyas should be fully mentioned on Bhagwan Swaminarayan page, because remember despite of what views are of them they have been established by bhagwan swaminarayan. Yes lets keep the page NPOV but can we try to respect the Swaminarayan Sampraday and Acharyas and all else come after respectively. I say this because Swaminarayan Sampraday was set up by maharaj himself as were the acharyas. So i feel they deserve more of a mention, not saying that other groups should totally be kept out of the article. Also remember other Swaminarayan groups such as Swaminarayan gadi, Anoopam Mission, Vadhvaan etc will need to have a section. Haribhagat 21:15, 8 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Very well put, sir! I respectfully agree and admit that (1) Acharyas must be mentioned first. Despite whatever philosophical differences one has, it cannot be disputed that they have the historical right to this mention; (2) Also agree that we can accomodate other Swaminarayan groups as well in separate sections. . . .  Have just added a couple of lines (before i saw this entry by you) to your talk page requesting that we present the sects as a family within Swaminarayan philosophy rather than divisions within it. Sometimes we tend to get into philosophical arguments and realize only later that it gives fodder for those outside the family to use against all of us. Lets avoid that; other than this, i must admit its great to be conversing with a genuinely interested haribhagat who has studied the scriptures critically and accepts Maharaj's word. Lets keep up the dialog; we will have differences, but lets not allow those to overshadow our commonalities. wildT 16:25, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Hey
Jai Swaminarayan. I happened to be looking around and I noticed you're a bit of a frequent editor on Wikipedia, and furthermore you do work on the B.A.P.S. articles... I'm currently just creating a network for satsangi editors, so I just wanted to say hi for now, see what's good. Are you keen to improve B.A.P.S. articles? -- Harish - 21:25, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Jai Swaminarayan, bhai. Thanks for being in touch. Just to show you what I'm doing currently, I'm working on the Akshardham (Delhi) article in my sandbox (bare in mind that it's not finished). As you'll notice, I'm really keen to back up all sources of facts on the BAPS articles as to give them some sorta credibility as well as giving the articles structure, know what I mean? I'm just showing you by example how I feel the other article should end up looking... I'm currently in talks with Paramtattva Swami, at the London Mandir, on how the progress should continue, so I'm not laying any laws down. But do you see where I want to take the articles? If you have any thoughts at all about anything, including what I've done, feel free to let me know. Outta curiousity, where are ya from? -- Harish - 16:24, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Jai Swaminarayan. Ahh, that's cool. Better to concentrate on your studies in that case. Had my final exam for now earlier today (woo!). Yeah, I'm from London. Where about in India are you based? Hope all your assignments go well, bhai. -- Harish - 19:43, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Jai Swaminarayan
JSN,

Im a Satsangi wikipedian(Swaminarayan Sampraday). Noticed tht u hv worked before on Swaminarayan pages. Came to ur talk page and realised tht u hv been involved in the shaping of many of our articles.

Jai Swaminarayan, Thank you so much for adding your name to the list. The more supporters the better. Sign my signature book located on a link on the top of my userpage.

God Cat
JSN,

As ur aware, the Swaminarayan article no longer has the Hindu God Category - having been removed by people who believe he is not a Universal hindu god. Iv made a formal suggestion for a Regional Hindu God cat to b made for Swaminarayan and 14 other Hindu gods, which are in the Hindu God cat, but are more regional in nature. Your help is required to get the suggestion passed - PLEASE SUPPORT THE SUGGESTION on the Swaminarayan talk page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Meghdhanush


A tag has been placed on Meghdhanush, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

it is not a dictionary of Sanskrit words.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. nafSadh did say 21:09, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

RE:BAPS/Vadtal
Earlier there was a mention of post-hoc excommunication, however that entire part seems to have been deleted and readded several times over. If I am not mistaken, there was some sort of compromise formula set out, which read well (before I started editing Swaminarayan related content too much - I undertand this was the case from archive conversations I read when I started editing the pages). However, this when this was removed/readded there was change, I agree that it does not read as well as it did then. Around The Globe सत्यमेव जयते 09:21, 15 May 2011 (UTC)


 * No issues, take your time. My issue is not with rewording, it is with removal of vital info. Even if we work hard and reach a compromise as was the case earlier, stuff mysteriously disappears leading to the issue cropping up again every now and then.

Proposed deletion of Raajeev
Hello, Wildtornado

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Rsjaffe, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I’ve proposed an article that you started, Raajeev, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. To prevent the deletion, please add a reference to the article. You may remove the deletion tag yourself once the article has at least one reliable source.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with. And, don't forget to sign your reply with. Thanks!

(Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

— rsjaffe 🗣️ 14:04, 31 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi Rsjaffe, Thank you for your comments. This article is not about a living person - have given his date of demise in the article. Will be adding references soon - i am trying to learn how to do that, sorry for the delay because i am a beginner at writing for Wikipedia. Hope you will give some time before deletion - i have video and media (newspaper) references for this person, which i will add. wildT (talk) 10:35, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

Raajeev moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Raajeev, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
