E-mails
You can use "Email this user", but I will probably reply on your talk page, or the article talk page, as discussions should be open and on the record.
I have experienced problems with e-mails not being delivered, so please leave me a message on this page if I have not replied within 48 hours.
Broadcasted
The Wiktionary definition of Broadcasted states the use is sometimes proscribed, so it should not be used. The word also appears on Wikipedia:Lists_of_common_misspellings/B
Broadcasted appears in some dictionaries, but others, e.g. Chambers state "Sorry, no entries for Broadcasted were found".
Broadcast appears in all dictionaries, and should be used as COMMONALITY - "Wikipedia tries to find words that are common to all varieties of English".
A May 2023 search for Broadcast gave over 234,000 uses, compared with a search for Broadcasted which gave just 99.
Of these, 16 are redirects to "Broadcast" articles, 14 refer to a 2015 Canadian TV award and 5 relate to a 1924 cartoon. The rest are in quotations.
Regarding Recent edit
Hi @Arjayay, I noticed your recent edit in saraswat Brahmins page.Detail goes as follows, page:59 Footnote:28. 28. Burton mentions that many of these saraswat brahmins were considered low caste and were also called "Sindhur," from the vermillion tika (Hin. mark on the forehead),
The fact is not represented properly even though I didn’t edited others work.The whole paragraph is explaining how the local ritual expert Brahmins helped in raising status of Khatri and lohanas.Now it’s your turn to revert your edit. Have a nice day. RobertJudeson (talk) 21:37, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
- RobertJudeson - as I clearly stated in my edit summary "No reference to anyone called Burton on this page" - coming here and telling me about what is on page 59, in some book, with an unknown title, by an unknown author, issued by an unknown publisher, is of no help to anyone.
Moreover, if the book is by R. G. Burton, (the only writer on Indian subjects I know called Burton) that would not be seen as a reliable source, as per WP:RAJ. - Arjayay (talk) 21:55, 1 June 2024 (UTC)- Hi @Arjayay,
- I agree with you as the whole paragraph is based out of RAJ,the selected statements are extracted from footnote so it’s not the opinion of modern author.
- Statement with cite ,
- -Burton mentions that many of these saraswat brahmins were considered low caste and were also called "Sindhur," from the vermillion tika (Hin. mark on the forehead),
- [1].Here Burton is R G Burton while writing military history of Punjab.You are senior editor,you know the rules better than me.I leave this to you. RobertJudeson (talk) 05:44, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Arjayay,
- Richard Francis Burton,a British officer during Raj wrote a book on Sindh(1851).The footnote of above book contains this book extract which has been used as it is.

- You were right this is Raj era.Rules bounded Shall we delete this sentence? RobertJudeson (talk) 13:16, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Yes RobertJudeson, I can't see much of the Google book - they show different pages to different viewers - but anything based on the Raj sources, which this is, is probably not reliable. - Arjayay (talk) 15:28, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @RegentsPark.
- Discussion on that. RobertJudeson (talk) 04:56, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Protection for Nalanda
Hello Arjayay, is possible to have permanent protection for Nalanda University page? Many users keep adding the 1600 years ago established things. I think protection will help. Siddhi gupta vb (talk) 13:46, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
- I largely agree with you Siddhi gupta vb, but I am not an admin and was waiting to see if there was any more disruption before going to WP:RPP.
Semi-protection would prevent the IPs, but the actual editor changing to 1600 years has 38 edits, so would only be stopped by Extended confirmed protection, which would also stop you editing the article. - Arjayay (talk) 14:00, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
Please listen, do not change or add content at this article with giving any sources by yourself there. Find sources on the internet and add them to this article now. Thank you. 59.93.0.169 (talk) 06:58, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
- I have no idea why you have come here - I have never edited Kalinga under the Mauryan - but looking at it, it clearly needs more sources. - Arjayay (talk) 09:43, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
Vandalism and removal of redirect under the page Tiyyar
Hi, i have seen that the redirect to ezhava from the topic thiyya is recently removed by someone. this issue has been discussed from 2013 and all of the main editors have redirected it to the main page ezhava. the new page tiyyar is a low quality copy of the same page and in addition to that, this is claiming things like there is a dialect called thiyya in the lead with the help of some random new articles. when almost all of the raj era sources suggests that both are same . i cant find any evidence to prove that both are separate. Also in most of the cases the name ezhava is used instead of thiyya , this is again making heavy confusions as in 100+ pages are there where they have been mentioned as the same. In addition to that the recently made page is heavily vandalised and is entirely based on some news articles. please look into it an bring the redirect back , as i saw from 2013 ownwards almost everyone had bought the redirect back whenever someone have removed it. Lisa121996 (talk) 14:00, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
- I have no idea why you have come here, as I have never edited the Tiyyar page - please take this up at Talk:Tiyyar which is the relevant page for such concerns. - Arjayay (talk) 15:52, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
