Talk:Shekhawati/Archive 2

message: I've went ahead and archived the conversation. I was hoping to see some improvement over the issue, but find a lot of personal attacks, and bickering. The article hasn't improved either. I'm hoping that the part with the farmers would be fully sourced and neutural. --LBMixPro <Sp e ak|on|it!> 07:00, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The citations have been provided by the author hence the matter can not be deleted. It is vandalism. the basis of word Shekhawati has been explained with citations and evidences.

text: There is no harm if some useful theory is kept for discussion which ultimately may lead to some new discoveries. It is a knowledge which is not harming any body. Rao Sekha is related with Sheikh, which is an arabian word so there is very likely that the persian word Sheekh may be its origin. We have to prove before rejecting. You should come forward with strong evidence to reject. How do you say it is wrong. Unless otherwise proved it has to be retained. 59.95.104.104 15:37, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Enough already! 

message: Research is a continuous process. The established theories keep on changing. As per records it is a known fact that Shekhawati gets its name from Rao Shekha (1433-1488). It has been admitted and this finds priority placed at number one. It is interesting to know what was the seen in Shekhawati area prior to rule of Shekhawats in this. What was name of this region prior to rule of Shekhawat Rajputs. It is a historical fact that who ever was a ruler in India or any part of it named in his own name. That is why names of Bombay, Calcutta, Madras have changed.
I tried to search old records and found that much prior to Rao Shekha there are a number of villages in Rajasthan with name Shekha. The earliest mention is by James Tod: Annals and Antiquities of Rajasthan (1829). He has mentioned about the rule of Godara (clan) Jats in Jangladesh with their capital at Sheikhsar prior to its annexation by Rathore ruler Bida.
“Godara Jats were the rulers in Jangladesh before Rathores annexed it. They are found in large number in areas of formerly princely state of Bikaner. Chieftains of Sheikhsar and Radanvan belong to this gotra. Bika Rathor was made a King by the people of this very gotra.”Godara
This village Sheikhsar is situated in present Bikaner district of Rajasthan near the border of Hanumangarh and Churu districts.
Another very old ancient village is Shekhwas in Laxmangarh tehsil of Sikar district. Similarly third very old ancient village is also in Sikar district called Shekhisar near border of Churu district.
It supports the theory that naming villages after Shekha was common in this area prior to Rao Shekha also.
It is thus necessary to retain the theory given about origin of Shekhawati. burdak 04:16, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Shekhawati is a region and not a dynasty. It seems this article is being used to project Shekhawats who were not rulers but Jagirdars under Jaipur state who in turn was under Muslim rulers at Delhi. If dynasty is to be discussed it should be in the article of Shekhawats. Some of the statements are too generalized and need citations. So I have placed citations tags. Shekhawati was not a rich region during the jagirdari of Shekhawats. The farmers' movements would not have started otherwise.burdak (talk) 15:09, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
