Talk:Burmese invasions of Assam

message: There is a claim of Maha Bandoola committing cruel acts in Assam.  There seems to be no evidence and I believe it all came from British Propaganda.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by ShweKywet (talk • contribs) 16:19, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The evidence exists in documents (one is already mentioned), folklore and collective memory of the people in Assam.  Chaipau (talk) 19:49, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

message: regarding your revert the issue is with the use of Gait as a source, and not whether what is quoted is actually true as your edit summary seems to suggest.  If the same incident is reported by N K Basu, please use Basu instead of Gait to quote.  But only if Basu is using sources other than Gait as well and not Gait solely.  This is because Wikipedia does not consider British colonial officers writing on Indian ethnography and history as reliable.  Gait is also more than 100 years old.  By using problematic sources you are WP:POISONing this article.  Chaipau (talk) 10:34, 4 May 2022 (UTC)

replies: text:   so you mean to say N K Basu quotes Gait verbatim? You have just added the citation to N K Basu.  If N K Basu quotes Gait verbatim it still has the fruit of the poison tree problem.  Please either use the correct quote from Basu.  If it is identical with Gait you cannot use it.  Remove both Gait and his quote, please.  Chaipau (talk) 11:38, 4 May 2022 (UTC)

message: The map in the infobox is inaccurate because it follows present-day boundaries.  Many of these boundaries were created by the British following the Treaty of Yandaboo (1826) and the Ango-Burmese wars. To project back present-day boundaries to pre-Yandaboo Treaty situation is wrong.  For instance, this map shows that Burmese controlled the entire Assam right up to the current western boundary of Assam - which is not true since the Ahom king Chandrakanta Singha camped at Manas river to take back his kingdom, which is further east to Goalpara town.  It also shows that Meghalaya was under Burmese control, which is not true.  This map is historically inaccurate.
