Mentioning caste of living people

In the case of BLPs, please only add their caste-related details if they self-identify with a particular caste – see here for details. The recent edits made by you seem sourced, but it seems self-identification is missing in many of them. Also, in case of non-living people, the source should explicitly state that they belong to so-and-so caste. You cannot just guess on the basis of their surname. So please be careful. - NitinMlk (talk) 18:28, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ok I understood. Thanks for reviewing it. BahujanBot (talk) 18:39, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding unreliable sources

Please do not add Raj-era sources. They are considered unreliable on this project. To familiarise with unacceptable sources, see User:Sitush/CasteSources. In fact, this project mainly accepts scholarly sources for caste/history-related details – see WP:HISTRS. - NitinMlk (talk) 18:36, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
