User:Raaj Tilak's reverts

In his edit summary, User:Raaj Tilak blanked a large quantity of information from this article stating in unintelligible English: "vandalism, wants WP:RS". An accusation of vandalism is highly unwarranted and furthermore the references he removed were published in academic journals (e.g. Economic and Political Weekly) or by academic presses (e.g. Oxford University Press). I will tolerate this for now, but if it continues, User:Raaj Tilak may be facing a topic ban at WP:ANI. Kind regards, Anupam^Talk 14:01, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Dangling refs

I have located some dangling refs and hidden them, replacing each with a citation needed tag. This has been done because we have references pointing to sources that are not recorded in the article. Please feel free to contact me if you need assistance fixing this. - Aussie Article Writer (talk) 06:42, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Agrasen ki Baoli

There is zero evidence to support the claim that Agrasen ki Baoli was built by the Agrawal as claimed in the article. 2001:8003:70F5:2400:ADB7:B16C:9CB9:A85E (talk) 19:27, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Historical sources please

From the text: "Golden Age of the Jain Digambar Temple in Gwalior under the Tomara rulers inspired by the Kashtha Bhattarakas and their Jaina Agrawal disciples who dominated the Court of father and son viz. Dungar Singh (1425-59)and Kirti Singh (1459-80) with the Poet-Laureate Raighu as their mouthpiece and spokesman, a centenarian author of as many as thirty books, big and small of which two dozen are reported to be extant today. Verify the advent of the Hisar-Firuza-based Jain Agrawals who functioned as the ministers and treasurers of the ruling family had turned the Rajput State of Gwalior into a Digambara Jain Centre par excellence representing the culture of the Agrawal multi-millionner shravakas as sponsored by them."

This is supposedly from a 'Historian'. It is the unsourced creation of a singular mind! If this is the extent of the scholarship that goes into creating this article it deserves the prefix "The Legend of ..." in front of it. 2001:8003:70F5:2400:ADB7:B16C:9CB9:A85E (talk) 19:38, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Synonyms

As I was adding a synonym I realized, these synonyms should be alphabetized. It would then be easier for editors to add further synonyms if there are any. What are the community's thoughts about it? Regards Neotaruntius (talk) 13:32, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
