Please note that anyone added to this page must already have their own page on the English Wikipedia, and that article must include a reference from a reliable source to state that they are a Gurjar, - Arjayay (talk) 16:04, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Arjayay, does this rule also apply to all other pages? You mean all the people listed by other caste groups such as Rajputs have their own pages on english wikipedia and they are clearly mentioned as Rajputs with an authentic reference. The Real Rana (talk) 04:32, 26 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I also have to note that I do not think this will remain. The usual standard for inclusion in lists such as this is that the listed person should have their own article. Ranjit Singh Gujjar currently does, so I added them. That said, the sources given in that article may not substantiate notability. Also, @Ranjit.gujjar:, you should read the Conflict of interest guidelines. Thank you. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 19:17, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
