Proposed deletion

The subject page is meant for deletion.

But I dont understand why. May the article is not fully able to relate to the importance of the subject.

Guru-da-Gaddi is an important occasion of Sikh Religion. This is very very important time when the tenth Guru had stated that the next Guru is the Holy Sikh Book "Guru Granth sahib". I don't feel such an artcile should be deleted. Rest is Wikipedia policy. It is recommended that Sikh Scholars may be consulted on the subject. I am proud that I tried to create an article on the subject.Sanjivkumarsharma (talk) 17:42, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can you clarify what exactly Guru-da-Gaddi is? It's not mentioned in the Sikhism article. Is Guru-da-Gaddi the event when the tenth guru made the statement, or is it a festival on the anniversary of that event, or what? Whatever it is, the article should say that in its first sentence. —KCinDC (talk) 17:50, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am sorry for my unnecessary anger since everything is OK. The Guru-da-Gaddi is an occasion of sikh religion and this year its the tercentenary celebrations of the occasion. I have removed the deletion notice. Sorry but could not resist. But I cannot understand why the page is being deleted. May be you have not been to Punjab in India. Sorry. Rest is your decision.Sanjivkumarsharma (talk) 18:05, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. So it looks like Gur-ta-Gaddi is the consecration of the Guru Granth Sahib, not the celebration. The celebration is for the anniverary of Gur-ta-Gaddi. Should the name at least be mentioned in the Guru Granth Sahib article? Maybe this article should be merged into that one, since this doesn't seem to have that much new content. —KCinDC (talk) 01:01, 27 October 2008 (UTC).[reply]
I still believe that whether its GurudiGaddi aur/or Gurtagaddi. The thing is that Sikh scholars are not aware of Wikipedia. I am a Hindu Sikh. Kindly don't delete the article. Request to kindly contact #Sikh #Scholars. regards
