Query re: removal

@Fundamental metric tensor: - are you saying that this content which you removed is not in the source? - Sitush (talk) 09:57, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Dont remember saying that. The sources indicate that the Soomras were indeed Rajputs, and so that Arab origin theory is most likely legend. I am invariant under co-ordinate transformations (talk) 04:39, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Rajput origin

I do not understand the repeated addition of this, which appears to be contrary to WP:NPOV. I can't actually find the quote mentioned in the edit summary anywhere in the source but I do note that the first sentence to section 2 of that source says Writers differ on the origin of the Soomra race ..., followed by an overview of various theories and what appears to be a conclusion of the author that By all norms of historical identification, the Soomra race appears to be an ancient indigenous race of Sindh (last paragraph of section 2 in the source). - Sitush (talk) 17:27, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Improvement of the article

Because History blogs like this: https://thesalientfeaturesoftheruleofsoomradynasty.wordpress.com arent considered good sources for Wikipedia, I begin to resume these books that i found about the Soomra dynasty: https://ia802606.us.archive.org/10/items/ChronologicalDictionaryOfSindh/ChronologicalDictionaryOfSindh.pdf https://panhwar.com/Adobe/SKS.pdf It seemed that there isn't very much information avaliable about the Soomra Dynasty in English, but the last article was a mere stub and must be extended with the right information.

If there isn't much in the way of reliable sources then we don't say much. Aside from recent edits being so poorly cited that it is difficult to discern whether they are sourced or not, M. H. Panhwar seems to be/have been an engineer by profession. I'm not even convinced whether the plaudits to his book from some academic in the US are in fact genuine. - Sitush (talk) 16:53, 25 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

In any event, we do not used caste/tribe-affiliated publications for statements about history etc. That source is thus affiliated. - Sitush (talk) 17:00, 25 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well, in this case, the "caste affiliated publications" must have certain phrases or opinions that are controversial or no genuine.This phrases are inadecuated for the Wikipedia No?. But the entire source and his information? That is very extreme. Many biased sources have useful information and i dont think that M. H. Panhwar had created the whole book from his head and his "caste-bias".

And in the case of the "Chronological Dictionary Of Sind", M. H. Panhwar mentioned OTHER sources that he agreed or disagreed. I propose to use the impartial information from his books and the other sources that he menntionated in them to make his affirmations.

If there is mistakes in the making of the article , please mention them and work together to created a better article and not a stub.

How are you determining which bits of his book are impartial? - Sitush (talk) 05:06, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I ask your help, You seem to know more about Sindhi history that I. In my opinion the impartial parts are the chronological and description parts. Ididnt think that a "caste-bias" influenced the author in in point the capitals or the rulers of the Soomra dynasties for example.
