Discretionary sanctions notice

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Editing tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Simplified Manual of Style
• Task Center – need some ideas of what kind of things need doing? Go here.

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

• Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
• Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
• Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
• No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
• If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
• Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
• Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Regarding Second Battle of Tarain

Your removal of WP:RS backed content has been reverted. Do discuss on talk page regarding your grievances rather than removing sourced content and then reverting if restored. Sajaypal007 (talk) 13:33, 27 May 2022 (UTC)

@Sajaypal007: Sure, though I don't think Raso is a historical text, No mainstream scholar considered it as a historical text either. It's just a legendary poem with fictional tales which even get the ancestry of Prithviraja wrong. Not to talk about other myths like 17-18 Ghurid invasions and heroic Rajput resistance, Someshwar being killed in the battle against Bhima II, Parmardi being killed in Chauhan-Chandel struggle etc.

It even claimes that Prithviraj killed Ghuri Sultan, which is obviously fabrication of Rajputs in later times to avenge the humiliation of their king in Tarain-1192.

Even considering factually, Rima Hooja, Dashratha Sharma, K.S Lal estimated that his forces included over one hundred Rajput princes [Please see his main article where I added quotations as well from these scholars]; without quoting Ferishta which obviously means that his army strength was over one lakh atleast.

In any case, Ferishta was still a learned scholar of his age whom many later scholars quoted in their respective works. Thanks. Packer&Tracker «Talk» 16:35, 27 May 2022 (UTC)

Since, Dasharatha Sharma exact quoation is absent from Prithviraja's article, let me mention it here as well:-

One hundred and fifty of the Rajput chiefs fighting under his banner swore by the water of Ganges to conquer or died, and then wrote a letter to the Sultan offering to do him no harm, if he choose wisely to return to his country, but threatening him with complete destruction if he were determined to fight. Muhmmad of Ghor who was no stranger to the great bravery of the Rajputs
