[edit] Baidya

Hi,

   Can anyone provide more details about Bengali Baidyas and how they are a part of Brahmin community? I want to know more.

this article says that kayasth clan was formed by the servants of Brahmins. Historically, this is wrong. The history of Kayastha community can be veiwed in its wikipedia entry.

[edit] Tags

The article Bengali Brahmins was in a bad shape. I added a lot of well referenced material, although I was not able to get as many sources as I would have liked, because most of modern scholars are not interested in such topics. I think present tags are too strict to implement, and may induce some less informed editor to destroy this article partially or wholly. Instead of placing tags, one should ask editors to improve this article. I fear one will not get editors to one's liking, because relevant academic sources are hard to find, as far as this article is concerned. If one pushes the matter, he/she will attract only chauvinists who will destroy this article. -VJha (talk) 10:40, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
