thread_title: Kuki

message: The info box here lists Judaism as a religion practiced by the Kuki, and that members of the ethnic group reside in Israel, but the article mentions nothing about this. Presumably this is a result of recent conversion to Judaism? What's the story here? --129.11.12.201 (talk) 18:44, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

message: This article needs a massive clean up, including for the following issues:
*prose and grammar
*full citations (page numbers, publishers etc)
*more citations, preferably of modern sources
*removal of utter trivia
*removal of POV
*removal of excessive number of images
If no-one else does it then I will but - be warned- if I do it then it could easily end up being stripped back to something between stub and start class. - Sitush (talk) 20:05, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Clean up 

message: I see no mention of this in the article, although we use "Old Kuki" in a number of related articles. See for example this source. Doug Weller talk 10:58, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure what the related articles are but the mention of "Col. J. Shakespear" in the source that you link is one of the half-cock amateur historian-ethnologists of the Raj era. I'm not sure we can give much weight to it, although I acknowledge that it is mentioned in a much more recent work. The new/old distinction is new to me but I'll see what I can dig up. - Sitush (talk) 12:47, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

text: Ok, a quick read round suggests that the old/new thing is a colonial term based on, for want of a better phrase, scientific racism. I'm seeing modern sources that refer to the "so-called old Kuki" etc. This looks like it might be useful both for the specific issue and perhaps also in other ways. I'll do some in-depth reading, obviously. - Sitush (talk) 13:15, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

message: I have taken out  "who migrated from neighbouring countries of Bangladesh and Myanmar."
as the link https://blog.mygov.in/a-glimpse-of-the-indigenous-tribes-of-Myanmar-part-1/ does not resolve, is not on the web archive, is a blog, is anachronistic (if there was any migration, it was before Bangladesh and Myanmar existed), and is inconsistent with historical records referenced in the article. 2A00:23C6:148A:9B01:5C6C:4381:E780:5335 (talk) 14:43, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

message: The truth about Kukis is that most of the Kukis are Foreigners and Refugees coming from Burma ( now Myanmar ) as stated above. They do not have ancestral land in Manipur. The Kukis themselves say that they are nomadic tribes coming from Myanmar Hayumshidaba (talk) 19:35, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
