I've reverted your edits as they still have many problems. Please keep to the Manual of Style. And don't change the current Citation style (i. e. don't make a Works cited section, when there's already a citation/References section) Nobody (talk) 07:11, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
(moved from user talk)@1AmNobody24I have seen the sentence and reference two times.Not a single mistake is there can you please point me out if you find the grammatical mistake anywhere.Some reference are following older version and some are peer to peer journal.Now due to complete revert.Already 3 times it have been modified and May lead to the list of vandalism.Please self revert and leave the changes in the talk page which will be completed in next two hours. 2409:40F2:101C:3806:5C1D:6C3C:BF50:3023 (talk) 07:20, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@2409:40F2:101C:3806:5C1D:6C3C:BF50:3023 Not a single mistake? Example 1: which was not rare in the state of Maharashtra mainly during peshwas rule. Bad grammar and no source, could also be considered WP:OR. Example 2: The Efn in your Deshastha Brahmin and chitpavan section is copied from Deshastha Brahmin. Example 3: All your sections titles use ===...===, when they insted should be ==...==. These and many more are problems you need to address before readding any text. You can use your sandbox to work on it, but don't add it again without discussion or you will be reported for edit warring. Also don't call edits you don't agree with vandalism, that word has a different meaning on Wikipedia. I will not self-revert for obvious reasons and I hope you can see too that you additions need to be improved. Sincerely Nobody (talk) 08:04, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@1AmNobody24Nice then let me recheck the grammar once again.In this case I’ll add after changing the content.Deshastha page contents have been deleted already,Good reference will remain as it is not against any wiki policy.

Hope this correct works well as I have removed deshasthas page content and reference(Except gramanya).I have Checked grammar completely and references has been altered in traditional way.Incase if any changes are required let me know .

Stop vandalising

[edit]

@LukeEmilySorry to say this,second time you are vandalising the content without reason.Seems like you may be against any caste or in favour this doesn’t look nice to revert without meaning for an editor(Even you previous edits are making it clear-Probably against one caste).Talk page is there here to discuss the things.Hope you should not forget that this is Wikipedia and this platform is for all.I have given reference and added the content just by terming someone as sock don’t try to revert the things.If you feel I am sock my IP is there discuss with respective team regarding this. coming to your content,Deshasthas gramanya was solved that’s what I mentioned.karhade(Padye) was not solved if yes give the reference and alter.Saraswat was solved two times (Gaga bhatt) and court case both I have given reference. CKP was solved by Shankaracharya. Daivadnya case didn't got solved if you have reference then add the content.Hope it’s clear 2409:40F2:8:1DB9:74F1:CF8C:4BF6:BC47 (talk) 12:57, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@2409:40F2:8:1DB9:74F1:CF8C:4BF6:BC47 Please stop using the word vandalism for clear good faith edits. See WP:ATWV Nobody (talk) 13:16, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@1AmNobody24Good faith edit was those which cited the problem as you did .But this user is not even mentioning the problem and reverting without any justification,user @LukeEmily is taking contents personally as that user may belong to that caste(I didn’t meant to heart any caste instead explained gramanya).As I know Wikipedia is not restricted to anyone but sorry to say this I may be wrong.Before reverting incase if the content have the problem he/she should discussion here in the talk.Monopoly doesn’t look good atleast being editor.Hate towards one caste and obsession towards other caste can’t be a sign of good editor.Isn’t this violating Wikipedia's policy. 2409:40F2:30:3200:ED72:DF49:711B:E608 (talk) 13:30, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@2409:40F2:30:3200:ED72:DF49:711B:E608 You normally discuss it before the inclusion or after it was reverted (See STATUSQUO, BRD). user @LukeEmily is taking contents personally as that user may belong to that caste That sentence is clear prejudice, don't do that. Also per Wikipedia:BURDEN: The burden to demonstrate verifiability lies with the editor who adds or restores material and per Wikipedia:DUE: Neutrality requires that mainspace articles and pages fairly represent all significant viewpoints that have been published by reliable sources, in proportion to the prominence of each viewpoint in those sources. Giving due weight and avoiding giving undue weight means articles should not give minority views or aspects as much of or as detailed a description as more widely held views or widely supported aspects. Nobody (talk) 13:41, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@1AmNobody24No issue for further information just see the conversation of mrRaja and Lukeemily.Well it is non of my business,I am clearly stating my contents are neutral and as per reference.Even then without any reason just by terming someone as Sock if everyone starts reverting then where is the scope for new ideas?
Wikipedia may become factory of WR:POV users.Ex:She mentioned saraswat are not accepted as Brahmins but I have given peer to peer journal and publications which clearly states gaga bhatt and Bombay court gave clear verdict.He/she told deshasthas and karhade have solved issue as acceptable by others if so she can add the information by giving reference.Isn’t it? 2409:40F2:30:3200:ED72:DF49:711B:E608 (talk) 15:13, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Discuss welcomed regarding the topic

[edit]

Expecting information about Devrukhe and kramavanth Joshi. 2409:40F2:104C:6028:D12B:1E0:6328:CAE9 (talk) 09:35, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]


@LukeEmilyI will be waiting for your justification regarding the allegations you have done against me which is void of Wikipedia policy.You wordings reference is as below
” The content is the same as what a sock was trying to add on other Brahmin pages but was rejected by editors. A gramanya needs to be described in detail to give all views. Cherry picked fringe events for Karhade and Deshastha Brahmins were resolved and they were accepted as Brahmins by other brahmins but for Saraswats the Brahmin claim was rejected by other brahmins. The edit by IP gives a distorted view”
Prove that I am Sock(Refer x-tool) as copying perfectly cited content within Wikipedia comes under it's policy.Deshasthas(yajurvedi) and Karhade(Padye) were contested for their Brahmin claim and I have given reference it’s a part of gramanya(Yes I have told in the opinion of Author that Gaud saraswat and deshasthas these two were administrative Brahmins so this gramanya was political from Chitpavan ).The gramanya content what ever happened cannot be a view of author instead it’s an instance.Prove that Saraswat Brahmin are not Brahmins I have clearly given two main references of Gagabhatt(Leader of that century) and Bombay high courts clear verdict is there that they are Satkarmi Brahmins(Full fledged).When the issue has been ended by court and scholars ,You are sticking on sentence “other Brahmins didn’t accept!”
what it means?
My question is why other Brahmins will or should accepts when their own claim
is contested for the example Chitpavan and karhade origin?whatever is there in origin that will be final.For Chitpavan,Gaud saraswat,karhade origin is described in only one book called shahyadrikhand.Kalhana’s Rajtarangini ,Brahmandapurana and even Maratha kaifiyat(Peshwa era) clearly states saraswats as Brahmins.They have their own guru and shishya Parampara and 90% saraswat Brahmins are Madhwas so this is why Shankaracharya didn’t interfere during gramanya.In madhwavijaya it has been mentioned that Madhwacharya gave Deeksha to saraswat Brahmins personally going to Goa.Till 14th century madhwa deshastha and Gaud saraswat had same mutt in Kumbakonam ,it got separated in 15-16 century)(Can you contradict this?@MRRaja001-This user is expert in Madhwa related topic even I am taking him to loop).
secondly I have seen your all edits in Gaud saraswat brahmin page where you have given completed distorted view as it should look like they are Vaishyas(I can prove that picking and arranging topic distortion where all real information became miscellaneous).I have seen you have given opinion of authors who are not even sociologist.(I shall list it out).
Coming to your edit in saraswat Brahmin page you have removed their main most accepted origin of Parashurama and added some local story of Balochistan applicable to Balochistan saraswat(If exists) and there you have mentioned “low caste”.You cannot mention this sentence based on one author it should be based on multiple author as per sitush guidelines.This is what we call picked information even you forgot that Saraswat Brahmins page contain Kashmir Brahmins,Punjabi saraswat,Brahma Bhatt etc.Kashmir saraswat are those infront of whom Shankaracharya was suppose to proved advaita(Shankaravijaya explains about this and read about mandana Misra ).How about your edits in Lohani caste ?(Let me discuss these in their respective caste as you didn’t mentioned this here).
I will stay and wait for your reply as I cannot see Wikipedia diverting out of its original idea and becoming POV factory.

Dr.B.K.Karanth — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2409:40F2:104C:6028:D12B:1E0:6328:CAE9 (talk) 09:38, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, where have I removed the Parshuram origin? It is still on the page along with the drawing of Parshuram! Please check. Even scholars of modern times are not considering Shenvis as Brahmins. Only the ones in north (like Kashmiri Pandits etc.) are considered Brahmins. And maybe some Madhva Saraswat Brahmins. The others like Shenvi are not Brahmins as per many sources although they call themselves GSB. The Guru Parampara is used for claiming Brahminhood as one scholar says. The Deshastha and Karhade Brahmins are 100% pure Brahmins - no one disputes it today. But even modern scholars are not in consensus on the varna of Shenvi. The modern scholars are also saying that the GSB manipulated Skanda Puran to improve their status. My research started because Sitush pointed out some inconsistencies about Saraswats in wikipedia. I will reply in detail on saturday or sunday. LukeEmily (talk) 15:29, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@LukeEmily@MRRaja001Research should include deep analysis with multiple authors pointing towards single issue.I can show you the list of authors who claim that they are full fledged Brahmins.Didn’t I mentioned Gramanya of deshasthas and karhade.Brahmin status of Karahade is disputed in Karnataka till date.
Here the main point is Skandapurana is the only source which describes the origin of karhade,Chitpavan and gsb l and was used by deshasthas not by saraswats.One author is claiming that it was edited but many are claiming that it’s a original book.How come you mention as them as non Brahmins?.
shenavis-Probably your own reply is still there in chats that you are confused about shenvis and gaud saraswat Brahmins.First get it cleared about shenvis .Mainly gagabhatt and court both accepted their status as Brahmins then why are you adding speculations of authors here?
That’s ok I have seen even economists in gaud saraswat page which sort of research is this,can an economist be a socialist ?
You can see the sitush clearly told the neutrality maintenance.Where is it followed ? Karanth1234 (talk) 15:36, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@LukeEmilyGuruparampara cannot be used to claim Brahminhood as madhwacharya himself came to Goa and gave Deeksha.Further deshastha brahmin gave deeksha for new muth formation. Didn’t you edits look like one sided ? Karanth1234 (talk) 15:39, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Karanth1234:, you wrote Brahmin status of Karahade is disputed in Karnataka till date.. Please provide a good citation for it. Attacking other established Brahmin communities will not help raise the status of a community that claims to be Brahmin. Shenvis are generally not considered Brahmins(please see the sources) and Rege's book. The British did not consider them Brahmins either. Yes, they can claim to be anything - no one can stop them. But others have freedom of speech too. What economist are you talking about? What is his/her name? Please be specific. Why are you focussed on Gaga Bhatt from Shivaji's time? What about Pune Brahmins? Shenvi Brahmin claim was not accepted even in the 20th century. We only have to write according to the sources. If you feel that the views are one sided, please provide opposing views from acceptable sources so we can add them. I feel opposing views are already given on the GSB page. Skanda Puran has been interpolated for giving Brahmin origin to GSB - and the scholars say that this manipulation has been done by Saraswats themselves.LukeEmily (talk) 17:53, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@LukeEmilyGagabhatt was a learned scholar of that time who was famous for Shivaji’s coronation.who are Pune Brahmins?Chitpavan-Did deshasthas considered them as brahmin,I can cite bunch of references where they were portrayed as non Brahmins.
karhade-Can you show me a single citation which deny Gramanya against Karhade(Padye,Bhatt-Prabhu).Many authors claim them as non Brahmins.Don’t worry I am developing content for this page which excellent resources.
Deshastha -Truely they are Brahmins no doubt but show me a single dispute initiated by deshasthas against saraswat regarding brahmin status.No doubt their relation was not good due to politics which they did for centuries under Deccan sultanate and Vijaynagar.Based one one scholars view you cannot come to conclusion about Skandapurana,few scholars claim deshasthas altered that to show chitpavan as inferior.So you cannot come to conclusion keeping Lewit,Deshpande into consideration.
Anyhow Now let’s come to discuss,tell me what’s your objection on the content uploaded by me. Karanth1234 (talk) 18:24, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@LukeEmilyEven now you are speaking only about shenvis my discussion was regarding well established Gaud saraswat Brahmins(Shastikar,Bardeskar,Pednekar).You have given all the references on shenavis .Do they represent the GSB as a whole?Isn’t it void of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view ?Nice to see you and Ekdalian reply at a same time.Anyhow recheck your way analysis regarding GSB.I went through all the references it was solely written on shenavis of Maharashtra.I found that neutral reference was given by @MRRaja001 which you were about to delete.Anyhow I’ll come back there in that page. Karanth1234 (talk) 18:32, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@LukeEmilyWaiting for your objection regarding the contents.If not by default it will be added back.Hope you will raise your objection about this.Discussions are welcomed. Karanth1234 (talk) 06:00, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Adding content back

[edit]

@LukeEmilyI am adding the contents of my research back seems like your revert is not justified as it is your perception.You can raise the issue if you have strong proof against the gramanya of deshasthas and karhade. Karanth1234 (talk) 15:44, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Karanth1234, your edits seem to violate NPOV! Please continue the discussion with involved editors like LukeEmily, and achieve consensus first. Unnecessary edit warring won't help! Thanks. Ekdalian (talk) 17:44, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@EkdalianThe contents uploaded by me doesn’t remove any edits of LukeEmily.Instead it adds my research separately,hope this clarifies. Karanth1234 (talk) 18:26, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to hear from LukeEmily! Thanks. Ekdalian (talk) 07:19, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@EkdalianDon’t forget that Wikipedia is free Encyclopedia .Anyhow that user can express positive discussion but cannot deny just by POV. Karanth1234 (talk) 12:00, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@EkdalianThats better let the user confirm about the removal of any research work if not I can revert that. Karanth1234 (talk) 12:01, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Ekdalian@LukeEmilyI have kept the issue for discussion if anything exists.These are my contents,content of gramanya are constant and cannot be modified.
Hope if any discussion is there you can raise,If not I’ll revert.Since I didn’t altered anyone’s work and I have given valid references it cannot be reverted without any reason.@MRRaja001(I am taking you to loop:If objection is there)@Jonathansammy(Only person I remember along with sitush,I am taking you to this discussion loop). Karanth1234 (talk) 14:43, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Karanth1234, why are you so restless! I understand you are a new user; please be informed that we have waited more than a couple of weeks in order to add a single well sourced statement in such contentious articles (in order to achieve consensus)! In your case, it's a question of major changes and experienced editors like LukeEmily have earlier raised concerns! Read WP:SPA, and wait for others' response instead of pinging editors repeatedly! I believe, regular editors here are more aware about this topic, therefore I shall respond only after hearing from them. Thanks. Ekdalian (talk) 17:14, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@EkdalianHope you should know that I am Wikipedia editor from past 12 years(May be in break from past few years).I know how system works here,I hope you may know that there is nothing called experiences here it’s all about protocol based content with citations. It is all about discussions regarding problems and coming to consensus.Sorry to say this,I had added contents 5 times and got reverted.That’s ok then the person who reverted doesn’t discuss.So the question is what was the reason for reverting and not being administer reverting others research materials without reason doesn’t look nice .Anyhow no worries as I told I'll wait for fruitful discussions with non Point of view pushing editors but waiting time is limited not unlimited. Karanth1234 (talk) 17:27, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks @Ekdalian:. @Karanth1234:, you are making exactly the same edits as the sock (right after the sock was banned). Both the accounts were promoting GSB and demeaning authentic Brahmin communities. You have tried to completely rewrite the page that has been stable for many years. Your edits were reverted by multiple editors - including one admin -and the reason was given in every revert. Some of the reasons were not even related to the topic - they were "bad grammar". Other than grammatical errors, your edits are giving a distorted view of facts. First, gramanya is a caste dispute between communities that may go on for years. Take the example of GSB. You have conveniently omitted many of the points in Gaud_Saraswat_Brahmin#Varna_disputes thus giving a distorted view. The sources are very clear that the claim of all subcastes of GSB to be brahmins is not accepted uniformly and was not accepted uniformly by other Brahmin communities. Even modern scholars like Kantak, Dabir and many others do not consider "saraswats"(Shenvis) to be part of the Brahmin communitiy. The cultures are also different - the GSB or saraswats had the "tradition" of sex with "devadasis". Yet you want to show that everything was resolved in the British era itself and now all is well and they are accepted as brahmins - when in fact the disputes are still going on (see the sources on the GSB page)! A British era judge is part of the administration . The opinion of a British era judge would be equivalent of the opinion of Raj era administrator, something that Sitush has said we avoid. We are free to add it if modern scholars mention it but it should be clear that it has had no effect in this case on brahmins as well as modern scholars - and not even the British (they classified Shenvis differently). There is also an issue of "misrepresentationby omission" in your edits which is clear when you see your edit vs Gaud_Saraswat_Brahmin#Varna_disputes There are also errors and distortions in the gramanyas of other communities but I am focussing on GSB here. Some where you said that you have a source that Karhade Brahmins are not accepted by Brahmins even today. I am having a hard time believing that you have a reliable source that says that. LukeEmily (talk) 02:59, 23 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks LukeEmily! Yes, I could smell sockpuppetry/meatpuppetry here, especially the poor English and almost same content! Any such sock activities would be reported. Thanks. Ekdalian (talk) 07:04, 23 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Ekdalianwhat do you mean by sock,If you don’t agree with my point you cannot tell me a sock.Hope you know the Wikipedian policy.The person with gramanya knowledge cannot give different content as the gramanya remains same.Poor English was pointed out I have improved as I can Incase if space is there you can improve as I am not British. Karanth1234 (talk) 09:05, 23 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@LukeEmily@EkdalianThe way you both reply(Considering timings and English) provokes my mind to consider both as accounts handled by single person or May be prior know friends pushing caste POV.By keeping this perspective I cannot call you sock or meat puppetry.It requires strong proof.Hope you know that Sock can be proved by Ip(x tool) or if not proved using this it can be done on the basis of behaviour.So hope that’s clear. Karanth1234 (talk) 09:41, 23 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@LukeEmilyI am done with the sock cry.Now let’s come to the actual discussion.
1.
“Both the accounts were promoting GSB and demeaning authentic Brahmin communities. You have tried to completely rewrite the page that has been stable for many years.”
-These are allegations should I answer for this?.Hope all have right to keep their content unless they are wrong without valid citations.
2.”Your edits were reverted by multiple editors - including one admin -and the reason was given in every revert. Some of the reasons were not even related to the topic - they were "bad grammar". Other than grammatical errors, your edits are giving a distorted view of facts.”
-Cent percent they had rite to revert and they had given reason based on which I spoke with them rectified and revert with their consort.Only @LukeEmily gave the reason as distorted that’s why I am waiting for your reply to know what can be distorted when gramanya had already occurred and I have quoted with valid citation.
3.”First, gramanya is a caste dispute between communities that may go on for years. Take the example of GSB. You have conveniently omitted many of the points in Gaud_Saraswat_Brahmin#Varna_disputes thus giving a distorted view. The sources are very clear that the claim of all subcastes of GSB to be brahmins is not accepted uniformly and was not accepted uniformly by other Brahmin communities.”
-Even I can take the example of karhade (Padye and Bhatt Prabhu) not an issue.If you feel like I have omitted many points feel free to add with citations or discussion is better for that.You told something about Varna dispute as per my knowledge this was case with all brahmin caste of Maharashtra except Rigveda Deshastha if you want you can refer authentic Gramanya.
4.Many modern scholars like Kantak, Dabir and many others do not consider "saraswats"(Shenvis) to be part of the Brahmin communitiy. The cultures are also different - the GSB or saraswats had the "tradition" of sex with "devadasis".
-If I consider the example of GSB and Deshasthas they are completely supported by religious texts.Many modern scholars and actual socialist like gurye,Karve,Dr.Shenai,Deshpande etc clear acknowledge the claim of GSB.If I take the example of Karhade they clearly don’t have support of religious text and many authors clearly rejects their claim same with konkanstha.(I wonder how can a editor come to conclusion about the community without seeing both the side of story).
4.”Yet you want to show that everything was resolved in the British era itself and now all is well and they are accepted as brahmins - when in fact the disputes are still going on (see the sources on the GSB page)! A British era judge is part of the administration . The opinion of a British era judge would be equivalent of the opinion of Raj era administrator, something that Sitush has said we avoid.”
-I know what sitush told regarding British era(Not to Considering authors perception of British era but he never told not to consider actual issue or happened instance.In this case you have void that by using British Raj era author reference based books-Refer Gaud saraswat brahmin page).contrary to that I have given the reference of Gaga Bhatt.Mainly they were given Madhwa Deeksha by Madhwacharya himself in 14th century and seperate guruparampara was started by deshasthas for them.Probably you should read about Gaudapadacharya and Mandan mishra(1st seer of Sringeri mutt).All the above things are no way related to British Raj.
5.”We are free to add it if modern scholars mention it but it should be clear that it has had no effect in this case on brahmins as well as modern scholars - and not even the British (they classified Shenvis differently). There is also an issue of "misrepresentationby omission" in your edits which is clear when you see your edit vs Gaud_Saraswat_Brahmin#Varna_disputes There are also errors and distortions in the gramanyas of other communities but I am focussing on GSB here.”
-As per my knowledge there were different groups in GSB shasthikar,Pednekar,shenaipaiki,Bardeskar ,Shenavi in this you know only about shenavi that’s why you are in confusion.British categorized!Isn’t that British era document,you are contradicting your own statement.Refer Panch Gaud and Panch dravid division.GSB never intermarried with Dravid Brahmin they maintained their identify as cited by few authors on Konkan.But in the state of Goa they are called Boman in general(Even during Portuguese era achieves clearly states using word Boman for saraswat,Shilahara,kadamba documents clearly uses the word Brahman for saraswat and Prabhu for CKP).Deccan sultan times they recruited deshasthas and saraswats for the administrative post.
6.”Some where you said that you have a source that Karhade Brahmins are not accepted by Brahmins even today. I am having a hard time believing that you have a reliable source that says that.”
-Karhade being non brahmin origin reference is there with me the issue of Portuguese era transformation ,Tried to Mingle with deshasthas etc .The author had written with proof so perfectly.Anyhow it’s my part of work.
Hope I have replied for all you queries.Incase if any particular issue is there with the content please cite it in particular,instead of allegations of sock which is void of Wikipedia policy.I have mentioned Maratha and Chitpavan,GSB and Chitpavan,Karhade and Chitpavan,deshasthas(Yajurvedi) and Chitpavan,sonar and Chitpavan,Prabhu and chitpavan.I am compiling devrukhe and Chitpavan(But results are not clear so I am searching archives). Karanth1234 (talk) 10:45, 23 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@LukeEmilyYou were speaking about “Sex with devdasis”.I am professor ,I am against that evil practice and ethically I don’t want to speak regarding that anyhow just to clarify that it existed in all the community I am giving one link where Karhade followed this
https://www.theweek.in/leisure/society/2019/09/27/lata-mangeshkar-at-90-tracing-mangeshkar-lineage-to-western-ghats.amp.html”.
Even I can show the examples of Karnataka where deshasthas followed this but it is non of my interest.Hope it clarifies your doubt. Karanth1234 (talk) 15:46, 23 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
