Vandalism by Timovinga
I want to make people aware of @Timovinga who seems to be targeting numerous topics related to casteism and homosexuality, adding numerous texts that are not NPOV and poorly sourced, and removing texts that don't fit with his views. Arind7 (talk) 11:36, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
- I believe the Brahmin article should at least have Brahmin representation in it for sure. 108.39.84.90 (talk) 04:54, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
Brahmins as Aryans
I doubt Brahmins even as classified as ethnic groups can simply be called majorly Aryan since we also have dark skinned Brahmins. Proper analysis which isn't selective in sampling must be done. 108.39.84.90 (talk) 04:08, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
