Individual reassessment
Deshastha and Marriage
The article says, and I quote, "The Deshasthas are historically an endogamous and monogamous community for whom marriages take place by negotiation. The Mangalsutra is the symbol of marriage for the woman. Studies show that most Indians' traditional views on caste, religion and family background have remained unchanged when it came to marriage, that is, people marry within their own castes, and matrimonial advertisements in newspapers are still classified by caste and sub-caste." Sources cited for the above (Bahuguna, and Srinivasa - Raghavan) are both from Hindu businessline website.Is that considered a reliable source / publication? If not that we will have to look for alternate sources. Thanks. Jonathansammy (talk) 17:26, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
Semi-protected edit request on 30 December 2024
Script error: No such module "protected edit request". please remove marriage alliance between deshasthas and telugu and kannadiga brahmins. There is no proof of such a thing. The link does not give any proof. It is just a statement without any proof. Kindly remove it 2607:FEA8:8DB:6CA0:79B2:DDB4:F7BF:9C1 (talk) 10:05, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
- File:X mark.svg Not done The source clearly mentions it (page 45). The source is Maharashtra Government Gazette, which is proof enough. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 11:59, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
Deshastha And Major Figures
iMO why is purnaiah and tanjore madhavarao only thought of as deshastha icons. there as others like KB Hedgewar or Ramchandrapant amatya or dnyaneshwar or manohar joshi and devendra fadnavis. it is not correct in my view to put only tanjore madhavarao and purnaiah as the major deshastha icons as there are others who have contributed more like the the ones mentioned . My request to the mods is to remove them (Purnaiah and Tanjore Madhavarao) and instead put Ramchnandrapant amatya or KB Hedgewar. Even if we are looking from a perspective of power then somebody like ramchandra amatya should be there rather than purnaiah simply because he wielded more power than him as hukumat panha. So hence I dont understand why only those icons are put. in my view ramchandrapant amatya and tatya tope wielded more power and ones like dnyaneshwar and eknath are more famous than purnaiah and tanjore madhavarao. If you disagree can you please tell me the reason. This post is not intended to cause offence or degrade anybody or any figure and . Just my view. 2607:FEA8:8DB:6CA0:5CB5:61B6:CF20:B878 (talk) 07:09, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
- First of all, I would request you to open a Wikipedia account rather than editing as IP.
- There is no bar on you adding images of Dnyaneshwar, Eknath, Ramchandrapant Amatya, or Hedgewar to the article. Devendra Phadnis being alive may be problematic per wikimedia BLP policies, and India related rules.I hope this helps. Jonathansammy (talk) 16:03, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
