Famous Marwaris

edit

There is a lot of vandalism going on in this section. Vandalism will be immediately reverted back. It is only hurting the marwari community by adding not so famous names. WilliamFord 03:03, 29 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

The vandalism of this section is still going on unabated. It is quite disgraceful as the representatives of the community themselves are not feeling responsible and continuing to add unknown/little known names on this list.

Removed Keshub Mahindra from the list (Mahindra is a Punjabi Khatri family).

Famous and Influential should list those who have received world-wide recognition and/or fame in their chosen profession and beyond. WilliamFord 04:03, 25 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

I have pruned the list. Lists of people should ideally only include those who are sufficiently notable to be eligible for a Wikipedia article - see Wikipedia:Notability, or, failing that, there should be a source for their notability. --Bonadea (talk) 09:50, 5 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Map of marwar is incorrect

edit

The Marwar region is located in south-west rajasthan not north east as shown on the map. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.117.97.175 (talkcontribs) 16:57, 6 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

WP:INDIA Banner/Rajasthan workgroup Addition

edit

Note: {{WP India}} Project Banner with Rajasthan workgroup parameters was added to this article talk page because the article falls under Category:Rajasthan or its subcategories. Should you feel this addition is inappropriate , please undo my changes and update/remove the relavent categories to the article -- TinuCherian (Wanna Talk?) - 07:31, 23 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Merger

edit

As a matter of fact Marwaris are subgroup of Rajasthani people. I propose to merge Marwaris to Rajasthani people article. This makes sense. --Onef9day Talk! 08:38, 6 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Not well written

edit

Although the article does provide detailed information on Marwaris, the style and approach are very stilted. The writing is poor in grammar and uses words inappropriately (malapropisms). While the historical and geographical profiles are adequately neutral, many other sections are written like endorsements, rather than facets of a community presented objectively.

Overall, this article needs extensive rewriting.

MarwariMarwari people – Per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (languages), there is almost always no primary topic with respect to people vs. language. This article is definitely no exception, and should therefore be at Marwari people. --JorisvS (talk) 14:09, 6 October 2014 (UTC) JorisvS (talk) 14:09, 6 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

Astrakhan

edit

Marwari traders also came to Astrakhan. The Muslim Agryzhan (pronounced: Agrizhan also Agrijan) descend from about 52 Indian merchants, 1 of whom was a Muslim, the rest was Hindu. The Indian merchants married Muslim Tatar women, also Buddhist Kalmyks (Turk people) and Russian women. The families lived in suburb Agryzhan, the descendants were named after the suburb. This resulted in the people of the Agrizhan Tatars, who were later assimilated into the Astrakhan Tatars. Unfortunately, the entire article about the Agrizhan is false. This is the reason why Agrizhan are Muslims today, but they didnt forget there Indian-Hindu roots. Agrizhan are only culturell Muslims. Tatarsko (talk) 11:02, 31 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
