POV / References

Concur with previous issues regarding POV. Regardless of semantics, the references provided are not remotely unbiased. I am noticing this trend in many pages relating to Sikhism and Sikh persecution - suspect mass editing/contributions by a single, agenda-driven author.

Major tone/POV problems

If you want Sikh history to be taken seriously, you really need to adopt an academic and neutral tone in this article. Words like "temerity" and "martyrdom" will cause people to write off this article as terribly biased. MatthewVanitas (talk) 16:47, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree: the tone is academic enough, there's nothing wrong with "temerity" and "martyrdom" (the word is all over Christian and Islamic history and they seem to be taken seriously), and the tone of your comment is offensively patronizing. A few word alterations and maybe some more modern references (if any in English exist) are needed however. Magmagoblin2 (talk) 07:28, 5 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with the first point by MatthewVanitas, that this article needs a major tone shift. First, it doesn't matter what others say about other religions, the issue at hand is this article. If those "sources" you alluded to need cleaning up then please offer your assistance in doing so. I don't think any offense was meant in the previous comments, but rest-assured I don't mean any. I think that there is a lot of contention here and it does not conform to wiki standards. E.g. in the "temerity" and "martyrdom" sections there is only one reference (the same one) and it hardly seems unbiased. When talking about "genocide" there needs to be a high standard of writing to ensure the article is not a political tool. In other examples of contentious writing one would also expect unaffiliated, multiple points of citation. Mellowfellow

The wikipedia article sounds more like a religious text than an factual search. The distances noted between River Ravi and Bathinda jungle are huge and too big to be done in one day. It reads more like a religious leader talking than a researcher. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.34.117.5 (talk) 18:35, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Move 14 June 2015

Sikh holocaust of 1746 → Sikh genocide of 1746 – The word "holocaust" is too opinionated. There's no reason to use the more straight forward word "genocide". Durranina (talk) 17:51, 14 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please see Holodomor for comparison. Article can be renamed to Chhōtā Ghallūghārā. As per discussion on talk page, this has to be done. Thanks:)Messiaindarain (talk) 03:38, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

See [1][2][3][4], holocaust is more common word for referring this incident. Maybe massacre is a candidate but still better than changing to a word like, that is very less used in English sources. Raymond3023 (talk) 04:06, 15 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
