Kacchwaha King of Amber

The article has a strong POV, no sources, and would require a complete rewrite to make it encyclopedic enough for inclusion. Ahecht (TALK

Keep (perhaps with REname or temporarily redirect). We have a mess here: Amber is piped to Amer, India. That has a link to House of Kachwaha, which is itself a redirect to Kachwaha, which is an article on this Rajput caste. Here we have an issue of spelling Kacchwaha or Kachwaha. That article has a section on rulers of Jaipur State, which is subject to a merge request, becasue the first ruler apparently had a differnet capital or a different name for a state. What we need is a list article for the rulers. I would suggest that this should be Rajahs of Jaipur or Rulers of Jaipur, but this article might make a stub from which to start. In UK, there is an article on every barony, and even baronetcy, though these were mere titles and conferred no sovereignty. By analogy, there should be an article on the princely dynasty of each Indian princely state. Some of the rulers will ne notable and have (or need) their own article; others will not.

Redirect to Kachwaha#Rulers for the time being, until an actual article can be written. The History of Jaipur currently starts with the founding of the city in 1727 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, a Kachwaha Rajput. The history section of the Jaipur State article starts with the Dhundhar state founded in 1093 by Dūlaha Rāya, a Kachwaha Rajput. But the Amer, India article pushes it back to around 1037 A.D. when Amber was conquered by the Kachwaha clan of Rajputs. All with a relative lack of citation. --Bejnar (talk) 04:43, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
