Contested deletion

This page should not be speedily deleted because... this article consist a lot of value and importance to the people of jangid Brahmin society . it is related to the honor and the detail information about the 20 % strong community of jangid brahmin in the population of India ,many belong to this caste only. if wikipedia can not help to spread the information regarding this community then what is the use of having such a great space like yours where we can put our views and historical facts about such communities . I do not know how to correct some mistakes, cant you help me for such a minor thing just for the sake of someone's feeling attached to this article. I kindly request you please do not delete this article as I am not aware of tge of computers but I tried to give it a nice shot but everytime I fails I need your help if you can please help me ...thank you --Jangidbrahmin (talk) 03:16, 23 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Jangidbrahmin:, you must understand that the version you keep trying to place on the page is not encyclopedic:
  • It is not properly sourced
  • it spends too much time discussing the concept of Brahmins in general (not necessary since we have a full article Brahmin)
  • overall seems written to promote the Jangid people rather than objectively describe them.
Please step back from trying to edit this article, and build up your skills on less-controversial articles until you are more familiar with Wikipedia requirements. MatthewVanitas (talk) 03:33, 23 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but I didn't know the page was copyedited. @Jangidbrahmin:, your version of this article was not encyclopedic. It would be great if you could source any other edits you do, but thanks for trying to contribute. For now, you could try and fix uncontroversial things, like spelling errors or errors in punctuation. Once you know the rules of Wikipedia, you could try your hand at this article again, but just remember to source your information! RileyBugzYell at me | Edits 17:53, 23 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Contesting moving of the page

Referring to the same citation in page, the page is moved under same category mentioned in the article. Pinkeshsharma (talk) 09:01, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, it should not have been moved to Jangid Brahmin. As with Bhumihar, Vishwakarma etc, we do not title as Brahmin if it is an internalised claim, not generally accepted outside of the community itself. That appears to be the case here from the sources - they claim to be brahmin seems to be as good as it gets. We do not pander to the vanity of caste communities. - Sitush (talk) 09:21, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
