No Hindu Rohingyas

Hindu people in Rakhine state (Arakan) hates very much being called "Hindu Rohingyas", but they identify themselves as "Benglis" who profess Hinduism. As a consequence, Muslim Benglis(in Rakhine state) hate them back so much that they killed about 100 Hindus during Kha Maung Seik massacre.--Kalle Divins (talk) 06:20, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That's exactly the case. For them, it's an imposed identity. They would commit suicide if you call them as such. However, since they are calling themselves Hindu Bengalis, they have exposed a crack in the narrative for which they are much hated. SSH remoteserver (talk) 17:41, 16 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

non-concrete inter-referencing

As to this sentence "The Rohingya population trace their history to this period.[112]", it is found out that sources after sources of references, all of them are not concrete in nature. This sentence should be deleted.--Kalle Divins (talk) 06:08, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

falsified 'early' arrival of Islam

The claim by Sayed Islam saying that, by 788 CE, locals in Arakan were being converted into Muslims clearly contradicts historian Yegar's findings which say, even in 1203, Bengal is the eastern most point of Islamic expansion, not to say further into Arakan. (please see page 23 of the book "Between Integration and Secession: The Muslim Communities of the Southern Philippines, Southern Thailand, and Western Burma/Myanmar". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kalle Divins (talk • contribs) 17:14, 4 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You should WP:BB and make the change if you can support it. If others disagree, they will revert it. SSH remoteserver (talk) 20:17, 16 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Newcomers

They are newcomers. From Russian Wikipedia: " большинство историков полагают, что рохинджа переселились в Мьянму во времена британского владычества[13][14][15] и, в меньшей степени, после независимости Бирмы и войны за независимость Бангладеш в 1971 году[16][17]." --85.249.42.245 (talk) 06:33, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
