Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Bihar. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Fylindfotberserk (talk) 09:54, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Please do not change widely accepted regions of Indian states. You can look at Britannica entries for the accepted definitions.

There are many websites other than Britannica which say it is also central and south.you can't ignore it and say just Britannica is ultimate source. In google first thing about Maharashtra is said "spanning west-central India".

We have come to a conclusion that multiple definitions from govt. sources should not be used neither single regions should be mentioned for large states like Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 18:45, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

But its not just govt sources.. where can we discuss it?BelgaumGoan (talk) 23:08, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@BelgaumGoan:If you want to learn how sources work on Wikipedia, go to Wikipedia:Citing sources. Remember that using Government statements for thing like these is not good, because the government use propaganda and can skew it in whatever direction they like. For example, you can't cite a Government of India citation on a Pakistani Kashmir article, since you can make it appear as though India controls all of Kashmir. It is recommended to use sources from reputable third party publishers and news reporters and journalists. -- friendlyneighborhoodanon 17:32, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

Maharashtra

Just to tell you that the current definition is a middle ground between "western India" and "western, southern, central and south central". If you push it further, some people might want to enforce the older "western India" one as per this. Then what will happen? - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 10:21, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
