List of Rajput clans of Jalandhar Division

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Just useless. Several identically sourced/formatted articles have recently been deleted at AfD, eg: As I said then, what is the point of this, bearing in mind that the lead says "The appearance of a particular tribe as Rajput in the list does not in itself confirm that the tribe is Rajput or otherwise. Identity may change with time, and some groups in the list may no longer identify themselves as Rajput." Also bear in mind that the 1911 census was not reliable, being subject to the huge misunderstandings resultant from the influence of H. H. Risley and other scientific racists. It's basically just a transcription of a primary source. One past AfD was contested at WP:DRV but the outcome remained the same. Sitush (talk) 17:04, 27 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Renominated for discussion. There were no comments at the previous nomination but, as the examples noted above indicate, there is a general consensus that the group of articles of which this is an example are not worthy of inclusion here. Note also that the list above is not exhaustive. - Sitush (talk) 17:06, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
