Serving in Iraq

Hey there, saw your comments on my talk page. Sorry I haven't been on Wikipedia for the better part of a year! Yeah, I really did serve in Iraq. End of '05 through most of '06. I got back in November. Hehe, I guess I fulfilled the 'martial' part of being a Nair by joining the army :). --vi5in^[talk] 19:36, 15 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Rawal Badrinath.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Rawal Badrinath.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Are Cheras really Nāgas

Hi there is certain ambiguity regarding cheras being nagas. Since the ezhava page claims they are founders of chera dynasty and were villavars or something like that. Some claim Cheras are of Tamil origin related to Cholas or Pallava and maybe Thevar/Vellala.and another thing in the nagavanshi page you linked naga people instead of Nāgas of hindu mythology,naga people of north east are tribal austroloid and they have nothing to do with serpent people mentioned in hindu mythology.i corrected that error.anyways adding the cheras as Nāgas will create a lot of controversy.Linguisticgeek (talk) 05:48, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Ezhava claim is laughable. Villavar means "one who fights with bow and arrow" and is by no means related to Thevar/Vellala/Ezhava (These castes came in to existence many many centuries after the disintegration of the Chera Empire). Chola and Pallava were Tamils and Cheras were different from them. The reference I had given (Nagas, the ancient rulers of India: their origin and history by Naval Viyogi) clearly states that the Cheras are part of the Naga dynasty and Chera Kingdom "have been the largest centre of the abode of Naga race". This is upto 500 A.D. After that clans might have got extinct or assimilated. But currently the only race claiming Naga ancestry in the South are the Nayars. Axxn (talk) 05:59, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I do not doubt nairs are nagas,The Nairs and their related communities are ethnically very different from most south indian communities.But if you observe history carefully the first mention of nairs in kerala is towards the end of the chera period.i.e 9th century.The first dynsty in south india that really has naga origin are the kadambas of karnataka(kadamba is still a surname among the bunts)Kadambas are credited with settling Nagavanshis and Brahmins(Nambis) from achichatram so it is my personal opinion that the nagas first settled in coastal karnataka established their kingdom and then some nagas proceded southwards and conquered kerala.late the naga empires of the area what is called parashuram kshetra became subordinate to the vijayangara rule and the nagas(both nair and bunts) were generals in the vijayanagara time until well one Bunt general Tuluva narasa nayaka captured power and lay the foundations of the most powerful nagavanshi dynasty that controlled whole of the south.I am not sure,History in india is not properly documented.If you have ever been to hampi you will be astonished to see the sheer number of serpent shrines as well as serpent images carved on the temples.These are mostly from the rule of time of the Tuluva Dynasty(nagavanshis).Anyways Nagavanshis have also refused to accept brahmin supremacy in religious matters therefore brahmins esp the nambis did not accept nagas as legitimate rulers and many of samantha kshatriyas were blackmailed into going through the hiranyagarbha ritual so that they can be chandravanshi though they really are nagas.another fact that needs to be mentioned about nagas is that malayalam separated from tamil around the same time when nagas invaded kerala.though this theory is not widely accepted and i don't think it is wikipedia material,but linguistic changes in a region is mostly attributed to outsiders(in this case nagavanshis in kerala)Linguisticgeek (talk) 06:38, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OK. Understood. So what are the changes you are proposing to the article? Axxn (talk) 06:46, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nagavanshis first settled in south to establish the kadamba kingdom then proceded towards kerala and maybe initially served as warriors first unders the cheras and later when the chera kingdom fell they rose to prominence establishing their own small kingdoms in different parts of kerala.Cheras were a royal family and had nothing to do with any community is my opinion.they might have mixed origins i believe they were most likely to be Thevar/Vellala origin who might have integrated with the neighbouring nagas of the kadamba kingdom.see this period in kerala history is not properly known. i have read a lot of works but all are not very clear about who the cheras really were.apart from snake chera also means coconut in older dialects of Tamil and is very much related to the word kera.Your version that the cheras were pure nagas is not correct though the ezhava origin is as you said really laughable.ezhava were always a community of servants who served the ruling clans and warriors in kerala and were brought from sri lanka to serve the nairs,bunts and Thevar/Vellala rulers before.though nowadays who can't say this in kerala or in karnataka.Linguisticgeek (talk) 07:07, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Samanta Kshatriya

Hi,Anand and firstly A very happy new year.secondly i just cleaned up the intro of the samanta kshatriya page and instead of refering to Samantas also known as malayala kshatriya,i changed it to highest order of malayala kshatriya(is that ok).secondly if you do have time could you please look in the article Kingdom of Cochin,the article i think has been a little messed up a certain user called Vilmeenkodi,he was even messing up the malayalam language page by adding unsourced statements.i reverted those edits.i am not editing the cochin article is because i myself do not have a lot of info about the cochin kingdom.can you refer some good books which are exclusively related to cochin kingdom(if you know that is, i am searching too)Linguisticgeek (talk) 09:39, 1 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed he has removed many sentences, articles, references (...) which tell bad about them (see his talkpage).

Madras regiment.

This is how the madras regiment came into existence. please correct it. dont promote your own interests.

In 1748 Major Stringer Lawrence, a veteran of action in Spain, Flanders and the Highlands, was hired by the East India Comp-any to take charge of the defence of Cuddalore. He laid the foundations of what was to become the Indian Army. Training the levies to become a militia, the Madras Levies were formed into "companies" and trained to become a disciplined and fine fighting force. In 1758 Lawrence raised the Madras Regiment, forming the several Companies of Madras Levies into two battalions. 2 Madras was raised in 1776 as 15 Carnatic Infantry at Thanjavur [and underwent many nomenclature changes thereafter]. The Madras Regiment, grown to 52 battalions by 1826, has a glorious record, interrupted between 1928 and 1941 when it was disbanded by local officials who favoured the Punjabi, Dogra and Gurkha troops of the northwest Raj. The needs of World War II caused the resurrection of the Regiment.

http://www.bharat-rakshak.com/LAND-FORCES/Units/Infantry/101-Madras.html ( this is the official indian army site ).

If you are not willing to correct it then I will take this dispute to the editor. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.22.69.52 (talk) 18:08, 9 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Peacock usages

Kindly keep the article such as Nambiar, menon and Samanthan Nair devoid of peacock terms and adequately referenced when you choose to revert from an earlier referenced version —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sanam001 (talk • contribs) 09:15, 13 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

FACTS about Peacock items

1. Fawcett, Edgar thurston all agree that menon is a dignified royal scribe. The Akattu charna nayar is some what “middle class” in the nair ranking system.

2. Male members of cochin royal family engaged in sambandham unions with Nayar women of Kerala and is not restricted to those dignified as menon alone. So only individual cases of such unions with menons existed . So this claim that it is “only” to menon women is bogus. If you have any source that it was restricted to menons you must cite it in the article.

3. Paliath Govindan Achan (and not Govinda menon) was the last Paliath Achan to occupy the position of Prime Minister in the Kingdom of Cochin until 1825. Infact Nadavarambu Kunhikrishna Menon who succeded Paliath Givindachan was a rival of the Paliam family. Paliath Govindan achan was imprisoned and later died in 1832 in Benares. Diwans of Cochin Thottakkat Govinda Menon (son of Sankunni Warrier) and later his brother of Thottakkat Sankunni Menon were all appointees to the office of Diwan of cochin after the hereditary prime minister ship of the Paliam family to cochin was abolished by the Raja of Cochin and did not belong to the Paliam family.So donot confuse between paliath Govindan achan and Thottakkat Govinda Menon. Inspite of these historical facts if you have statements in a historical document that Paliam family was a menon family then you should cite it in the article otherwise the claim is bogus.

So i am reverting the article to keep it accurate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sanam001 (talk • contribs) 12:33, 13 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

NPOVReversal refusing Discussion

The menon article has peacock terms without citation as described in the discussion section of the article. The article has been modified by me several times with appropriate citation and during these i have mentioned the reasons. However inspite of this you seem to be reverting or undoing to an older version that has inadequate citation and prolofic peacock claims.I am therefore reverting it to the properly referenced version without peacock terms. I encourage you to participate in a discussion and not to revert to inadequately cited older version. Such repeated reversals by you to older version of the article which is inadequately referenced and has peacock terms amounts to edit war. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sanam001 (talk • contribs) 08:21, 14 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Do you understand this request for a reliable reference as an attack on your family? I found your statement rather an attack on the people you call impure Sudras.

Provide a source for your claim that "impure Sudras [...] pollute Brahmins with their touch". Otherwise, would I be wrong assuming that it is simply based on (misguided) traditions? Tomeasy_{T C} 12:08, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am not attacking anyone. See this. Axxn (talk) 12:54, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

To say that "impure Sudras [...] pollute Brahmins with their touch" is certainly insulting to Shudras, don't you think so?

If you find a book with such statements, doesn't make it less insulting. apart from that, did you realize that the book you cited simply describes habits. It does not - in contrast to you - claim that these habits are based on facts. There is a difference in saying "Brahmins believed that Shudras' touch may pollute them" and the claim that you made.

I think the question here really is: Do you believe that "impure" Shudras pollute Brahmins with their touch, or not? If not, I would drop it here. Tomeasy_{T C} 13:11, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to me that you have no interest in rectifying your outrages claim that "impure Shudras pollute Brahmins with their touch". Please consider that I am prepared to initiate administrative measures, if you continue to uphold this position. Wikipedia is not the place for such blatant insults. Let me know if everything was just a misunderstanding! Tomeasy_{T C} 08:29, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

3RR

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. NJA (t/c) 08:23, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Understand about nayars without sub-clan prejudice

Reference-1 Changing Kinship Usages in the Setting of Political and Economic Change Among the Nayars of Malabar E. Kathleen Gough http://www.jstor.org/stable/2844041 In essence nobody refutes that the ruling elite of nads were higher sub-divisions of nairs or Samantha Kshatriya who derive their ancestry from sudra stock. However it is the proportion of nayars that were ruling elite and nayars that had other professions that is the issue to be considered while framing a definition for nayars. Nayars professed wide variety of professions.To be precise, what K.Glough notes is that not much is known about the traditional kinship among servant classes of nayars and not that they are not recognized as Nayars. Also kindly read properly maintaining your objectivity and not taking things too personal . See page 2 para 1 on left where she gives the distribution frequency of nayar profession based sub-clans in a representative proportion. Now you will understand that the proportion of lineages that are retainers , oil-mongerers , pot makers or funeral priests are in proportions higher than the chiefly lineages and that mutual ritual ranking between is clear (not unequivocal) . Reference -2 The Internal Structure of the Nayar Caste, CJ Fuller “eighteen Nayar subdivisions are listed (with their traditional occupations) in order of rank……………………” Akattu charna nayars (clerks, domestics and scribes) , Urali nayars (masons) , Pallichan (palanquin bearer), Chembu-kotti (copper-smith), Chakkala nayar, Vattakadu nayar (oil mongerer), Vilakkithala nayar (barber), Veluthedathu nair (Washer-man), Attikurisssi nayar (funeral priests) are all nayar castes only different in their ritualistic ranking from the ruling elite or mercenary/soldier ranks. Do not overlook these professional divisions and ego-based claim that all nayars are ruling elite. It is anthropologically and historically incorrect. Kindly read documents and research articles more objectively. Again you seem to be ignorant about NSS. Although many divisions of nayars are lower ritual rank , the NSS also accepts them as nayars. You can contact the following members of NSS. Sri.P.V.Neelakanta Pillai, Advocate President Nalanda, Kottiyode, Attingla-P.O., Thiruvananthapuram District. Phone 0470-2622368 (Residence), 0470-2622248 (Office) Narayana Panicker.P.K., General Secretary Lekshmyvilas Bunglow, Vazhappally, Changanassery. Phone:0481-24220330 (Residence), 0481-2410566 (Office) 3. In essence, nayars used to profess a wide variety of professions and requires that this fact is emcompassed to keep the primary description generic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sanam001 (talk • contribs) 09:42, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

One revert on Thirumulpad
Three reverts on Menon (Nair subcaste).

If you follow the the guidance WP:DR step-by-step, it instructs you how to deal with disputes that cannot be resolved through simple discussion. You would be wise to not engage in further edit wars as blocks will only increase in length. Also, I've looked over your use of WP:ROLLBACK, and only a few of the edits you used it on were obvious vandalism. Please ensure you use 'undo' for normal reverts, and not rollback, otherwise you will lose the tool. NJA (t/c) 12:49, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am not contesting my block, as I know the rules and policies of wikipedia. I just want to state that I am editing wikipedia for the last 5 years and my reputation is getting spoiled for the first time due to factors beyond my control. Axxn (talk) 16:19, 4 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring is always in your control. I understand and sympathize with your explanation on WP:ANI, but edit warring is not the way to resolve the problem. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 16:37, 4 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Nair People Collage.JPG

A tag has been placed on File:Nair People Collage.JPG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only," "non-derivative use" or "used with permission," it has not been shown to comply with the limited standards for the use of non-free content. [3], and it was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19, or is not used in any articles. If you agree with the deletion, there is no need to do anything. If, however, you believe that this image may be retained on Wikipedia under one of the permitted conditions then:

state clearly the source of the image. If it has been copied from elsewhere on the web you should provide links to: the image itself, the page which uses it and the page which contains the license conditions.
add the relevant copyright tag.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Nair article

Let us give the details such as classificationof nair in separate section. Let the article be readable with. The first sentence itself was a mess - a biased one. Why are you reverting without any discussion? There are many sub-sects in Nairs which are not Khshathriyas. So a separate section is needed distinguishing this. It is necessary for the article to be neutral. If you are so curious with the purity of the artile read the Etymology section. From months it says in its very first sentence that "The word Nair lends itself to two etymological interpretations". But only one interpretation is given there.Where is the second one?. The second was there very long back. But the majority kshathriya-biased nair wikipedians removed it. However they forget to remove the first sentence of this section. The article is totally biased with inappropriate sections. A complete clean-up is required. The term "Malayala Kshathriya" surprised me a lot. Have you heard any where in kerala such a term in common use? Snnair (talk) 06:18, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Dear anand make a discussion first. I admit "Nairs are Kshatriyas". But you atleast show the minimum courage of a Kshatriya. If you only want to establish "Nairs are Kshatriyas" change the entire article and type only Nairs are Kshatriyas. What about the second part I have told here.. about the etymology? I feel shame on you. Snnair (talk) 06:42, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I just left {{uw-3rr}} at User talk:Snnair and want to mention here that it is not clear to an uninformed onlooker (such as myself) that the issue you are reverting really is vandalism. I am not confident that the exceptions at WP:EW apply. Johnuniq (talk) 07:15, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Aanand, I am user Snnair. I write this only because you are mistaken (Afterall the entire life is a collection of mistakes). I am nithar an Ezhava nor the user referred by you people as user X. I edited this article because I had my own genuine reasons. I have no relation with user X. I also noticed the edits by the person whom you are referring as user X. Dont think that I am the same person. Anyhow, now I am using my account with sir name Nair. because I found no alternative use for this sir name. It neither helps me for my livelyhood nor for my status in society. So why should I claim to be a Kshatriya. Let the user X take your comments. I am not that user. Still I wish to ask to repeat some of my questions. What about the correction in "Etymology" part? Shall we continue it like this? Is the terminology "Malayala Kshtriya" a genuine one? I feel my self ashamed. Let me remain as a nair (But I wish to say truth). (Does Kshathriya Kshema Sabha took over the charge of Nair Service Soiciety? or Is NSS a subdivision of Kshatriya Kshema Sabha.. Pleas answer? Thank you for your comments.

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 04:46, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Deutsche Nationalkreis Asowo

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Deutsche Nationalkreis Asowo, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article that does not provide sufficient context to identify its subject. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. -- Ice (talk) 07:51, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Kollam Thulasi.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Kollam Thulasi.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 19:05, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Distribution of Hindus in Guyana

The article Distribution of Hindus in Guyana has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unnecessary stat list, which is essentially a duplicate of the census. This is not notable per Wikipedia guidelines.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Ravendrop 11:44, 29 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nair ceremonies and customs

I am removing huge chunks from Nair ceremonies and customs, an article that you created in 2009. I think that you may have done this as an unattributed fork from Nair but, in any event, right from the outset the article contained massive chunks which violated copyright and which were (and remain) uncited. My suspicion is that there will not be much left of it by the time I have finished, sorry. - Sitush (talk) 11:53, 29 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nair

Several editors have been trying very hard to improve the Nair article of late, and while it is perfectly valid to criticise what they are producing, Wikipedia policies require that you assume good faith, act in accordance with the project's civility guidelines, and do not issue any personal attacks or threats.

If you feel that material added to the article is incorrect, please find reliable sources to back up your arguments, and present and discuss them in a civil manner. And when editors point to the sources they have actually used, please discuss them calmly and civilly - the way to dispute sources is by finding alternative sources which contradict them, not by simply insulting the Wikipedia editor or the source's author. If you believe an author is biased or otherwise incorrect, you need to find an alternative source to contradict them.

Also, please note that nobody editing the article is insulting Nair people, or calling them dogs, or anything of the sort - even the disputed "dog" reference isn't actually calling any people "dogs". Accusations that editors are calling Nairs "dogs" are unacceptable.

A number of comments made in edit summaries and on the Talk page recently have been unacceptable, including your comment here, and the personal attack you made here.

If you make any further comments in a similar tone, there is a very strong chance you will be blocked from editing - but I hope it does not come to that, and that you will instead make constructive contributions.

Please have a look over Wikipedia's reliable sourcing and verifiability policies, and try to keep your contributions in line with them

Secure Data Recovery

You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

The article Secure Data Recovery has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, individual animal, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 18:32, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
