Jatland Wiki updates

Academicians

We were lacking a category for the Jat Academicians. Now we have created it on Jatland Wiki. Members can add names here:

http://www.jatland.com/home/The_Academicians


Earlier we have classified some of Academicians in the category of The Administrators. We can transfer those names to this new category of Administrators.

Thanks Burdakji.

In the current photo, Mr. Rana does not seem ready for the shoot!

I suppose a better photo of Mr. Rana could be used, if available.

Your point is a fair one. I would like to think Jatland wiki is in phase I of the history compilation project, because of the lack of an accurate historical record (as Burdak ji said).

Indeed, I find hard to discard Prashant Vaidwan's point about somewhat unlikely theories being presented as fact on a few pages, even though his style is uncivil here.

I see it as a two part problem - a. do we have the content in there, and b. is the content itself accurate.

Burdak ji and team have done a wonderful job of content creation so far, especially as a lot of the material is rigorously referenced. At some point we may need to slow content creation down and revisit the content and re-edit it, to make sure it eliminates the more unlikely interpretations, or at least separates fact (eg: data around geography, "recent" history etc) with potential theories, and extensions.

Moreover, the idea of the wiki is that anyone can edit it. If you feel a page can be better organized, or certain "theories" are not relevant, then you should go in an make that edits. Obviously, vandalism is not the point. but it is ok to say - one interpretation is this. this is another. or... XYZ has been suggested by some, but is unlikely coz of ABC reasons.

A civilized debate as is happening in this thread helps greatly, but I see a lot of scope for cleaning up the wiki as well.

Nitin Dahiya ji/Laxman ji,
I deeply appreciate your spirit of accommodation. Thanks.
With the hope to contribute my mite towards the compilation of material for preparing an authentic and scientific history of the Jats in the context of an over all history of India I proceedd to add, as my notes, at some places in the edit free copy of B.S.Dahiya’s book, Jats: The Ancient Rulers’. With the kindness of the Administrators/ Editors several of such notes were accepted and these still stand there. But soon I found my self debarred from edting any part of the book. My intention was only to post new information for the benefit of the raders to compare the issues dealt with and draw their own conclusion That I think is the purpose of civil discourse.I am not adequately compute savvy. I am just able to manage upto a level.But I would certainly like to understand if I have committed any indiscretion in adding my notes there.But I am of the opinion that if we read B.S.Dahiya’s book or for that any book with out reference to the new material available now,we would be doing injustice to them. I am sure Dahiya himself woud have himself revised his stand had he encountered authentic new matrial. Talking of updates, I would earnestly appeal to seekersof authenicity like Laxman ji and Ravi ji and others to ponder over thmaterial posted by me and form a view and update the write ups about Jats wherever they feel convinced. Please excuse me if I appear to be stubborn.I am writng all this in utter humility.
Regards
s.s.rana

Rana Saheb,

We appreciate the efforts done by you to write authentic Jat history. We have taken here on Jatland Wiki B S Dahiya's book : Jats the Ancient Rulers for study and research purposes and to make our people aware about Jat History.

We are not authorized to change the contents of the book, these pages are protected from editing. Since this wiki is editable by all members, we may not catch the changes in later stages.

We can do one thing that we create a page Review of the book by Dr S S Rana in the index of the book. You can write review there so that these may be incorporated in later editions. If the administrators agree this step can be useful.

Regards,

Laxman Ji,
Many thanks for the guidance.The arrangement proposed by you, if accepted by the administrators, would be fine with me. I would also try to make my contrbutions more annotated for the benefit of those who wish to go deeper. I shall patiently await the decision of the administrators in the matter.I do hope that there will be some way for me to know the same.
In the mean time, may I know if I could write my observations on the jatland wiki narration on topics of jat history which currently are shown edit free?

Regards
s.s.rana
