Suggesting merging of Kammalar with Vishwakarma
[edit]User Sitush has proposed the merging of this article with the Vishwakarma (caste). I disagree on merging both article since Vishwakarma is a title used by several artisan communities throughout India who belongs to different ethnicities (e.g. Panchalas of Karnataka, Kami of Nepal, Khati of Malwa etc.) whereas the community of Kammalar is ethnically Tamil but also use the name Vishwakarma due to mythological belief shared with other artisan groups. It is the same as merging the article of Brahmin with that of Iyer. Xenani (talk) 20:23, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
- You are writing this in the wrong place. It should be in the section at Talk:Vishwakarma (caste). And it is your editing to force through Tamil/Sri Lanka connections across numerous articles that is causing this confusion. I'm not sure what you are up to but it is becoming frustrating to deal with it. - Sitush (talk) 20:37, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
- Hi Sitush. I will add the same comment on Talk:Vishwakarma (caste) then. Regarding the second part, I did not quite understand what you mean, could you specify more, preferably at my talk page. Also, why did you removed these sources also [1] [2]. Xenani (talk) 20:56, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
