Muslim Jat clans of Jalandhar Division

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Just useless. Several identically sourced/formatted articles have recently been deleted at AfD, eg: Despite the lead, this article is based on the 1911 census. That 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) 01:35, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Delete This is another one of the worthless, inaccurate lists created about every grouping of Jat clans in existence. The 1911 census has been declared invalid and inaccurate by consensus, and numerous lists of this type also based on said census have already been deleted - in fact, I don't believe there has been any other outcome for AfDs on lists like this. I don't know who is behind all these lists of Jat clans which always go back to the same invalid, hundred-year-old census but there isn't anything unique in this case.
