[edit] Swaminarayan Dispute
Dear Sfacets, Is it possible to create a separate article devoted solely to the Uddhav Sampraday (Original Shree Swaminarayan Sampraday)? Our friend Haribhagat has toned down his rhetoric but continues to insist that the article on Bhagwan Swaminarayan should be devoted solely to the Uddhav Sampraday. My suggestion was to devote the article on Bhagwan Swaminarayan solely on his life and have links to the separate groups within the Swaminarayan faith (e.g. BAPS, Uddhav Sampraday). Again, let me know what you think. I am currently tied down but will get to the Bhagwan Swaminarayan article soon.
I think it's a good idea keeping the article a biographical one, however we could keep short paragraphs on the page with summaries of the different sects, and link these to the main articles in question, as these are part of the legacy left by Sri Swaminarayan.
Above all, spliting the article like this will help avoid all confusion aring from edit wars.
I too am quite busy atm, but let me know if I can be of assistance. Sfacets 11:27, 15 December 2006 (UTC) Sfacets 11:27, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

No problem. Figured you might be from somewhere else. I've gotten used to cleaning up the Indian :- as well. (not to be confused with :-) A Ramachandran 06:24, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

You could make a request at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection specifying that you would like semi-protection put in place and for what reasons... Sfacets 00:17, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi, pages can be moved/renamed using the tab at the top of the article (near History). In this case it is important to also mention his formaer identity as part of a complete encyclopedic entry, however it seems like a good move to rename it to a more used name. Sfacets 05:20, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] See also section
The see also section is for related or similar articles, and not for listing links already found in the article - see guide to layout. The Swaminarayan Sampraday is a related article. Sfacets 02:20, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
Re: Your answer on my talk page: Yes, it definitely should - doesn't it already? Or has it been removed? Sfacets 06:51, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Swaminarayan Dispute
Yes, it's not what talk pages are for. They are for discussing how to improve the article. —Hanuman Das 01:30, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Please follow Wikipedia's guidelines for external links. The article should not contain a link to the same site in each section. If the website meets the guidelines for inclusion, include a single link in the "External links" section. — ERcheck (talk) 07:22, 31 January 2007 (UTC)th
[edit] Re:Eligibilty
It depends on the nature of the vandalism, the nature of the other edits, the amount of other edits, the time span... More information can be found at Wikipedia:Protection policy. Cbrown1023 talk 15:01, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Please stop adding material without explanation or source. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 21:54, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you.
The page move should have been discussed at the Talk page; it's not a simple matter of saying that the title was wrong, as you know. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 00:28, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
Hi Moksha88 - I dont know how to 'move' the Jinabhai article to 'sadhu Gnanjivandas' - could you let me know how (will be glad to do it), or move it, as its been agreed now by you/Mel Etitis ? Thanks. wildT 18:29, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

What word would you suggest instead? Denomination, perhaps? Group?
