Talk:Sardar

message: In punjab, Sardar means a Landloard with good wealth and prosperous. Sardas term specially used in Jatts of Punjab. Now a days people call Sardar Ji to all person with Turban and Beard. It is not Sardar who has Turban and Beard. Any one can be Sikh but it doesn't means anyone can be Sardar. Sardar can only be used for Jatts.
Says who? All Sikhs are equal, Sardar is a noble title, a Singh should be noble by nature, hence can be called Sardar, take your self - important attitude elsewhere, no true Sikh would have such an arrogant attitude.
Please, gentlemen or ladies, a little civility.  It would be pleasant if you would also sign your contributions (such as they are).  Ratagonia 06:55, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

message: In this article, it is written that "the word Sardar-ji refers to an adult male follower of Sikhism; for females, the suffix -ni is appended (pronounced Sardar-nee).", but let me make it clear that Sardar is just humans created (probably to consider themselves supreme from other sikhs, or by non-sikh people who want to fill ego in certain sikhs by calling them by such names, by the intention to actually deviate them from their religion.) 
An adult/child male follower of sikhism, is Sikh (and his middle name or last name includes Singh) 
An girl follower of sikhism, is Sikh-ni or Sikh-nee (and her middle name or last name includes Kaur)
A True sikh is that who follows his Gurus. And none of our Gurus have put sardar in front of there names, so how come today's sikhs are putting such names??? To be clear the names of our Sikh Gurus are:-
1. Guru Nanak Dev Ji 
2. Guru Angad Dev Ji 
3. Guru Amardas Ji   
4. Guru Ramdas Ji    
5. Guru Arjan Dev Ji 
6. Guru HarGobind Ji 
7. Guru HarRai Ji    
8. Guru HarKrishan Ji 
9. Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji 
10. Guru Gobind Singh Ji 
11. Guru Granth Sahib Ji (The Jyot(light) of all 10 Gurus and also called Immortal Guru)
Moreover, in Guru Granth Sahib, Sardar word is used nowhere.
So as you can clearly see, none of our Gurus is Sardar, so how come there followers be sardar. It's purely created by people for their self-willed purposes (Manmukhs).

::Harry, what you have said may be true for Sikh spiritual purposes, but here the encyclopedia is not based on what is spiritually true; rather, it is based on what is written by reliable sources--including those uses of the word that may be improper according to pure Sikh theology.  This article just describes how the word is used, not how it should be used. Steveozone (talk) 05:29, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, Harry, all articles here do in fact describe what is believed, and said, and not what the truth is (see WP:RS).  I actually think I agree with you as a personal moral principle, but you need to understand that Wikipedia is not a bulletin board intended to determine and discover the truth despite what academic sources say; it is in fact an encyclopedia intended to state what those academic sources say, right or wrong.  You need to have reliable sources to cite, or, I am sorry to say, your contribution is going to be removed. Steveozone (talk) 06:23, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  No provision for Sardar in Sikhism 

message: This WAS the text:
* The word Sardar refers to an adult male follower of the Sikh faith. While addressing a Sikh Sardar, the suffix -ji is often added to denote respect, resulting in the word Sardarji. This term may convey several meanings, often associated with military authority, as the Sikh community has played an important role in the Indian Armed Forces. They were originally used as a title for Nihang who belong to the Sikh faith.
I am less interested in TALKING about this than in someone coming up with reasonable sources, THEN talking about it. Wikipedia does not put out the "truth", it puts out knowledge based on citations to reliable sources. Ratagonia (talk) 17:20, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Textual treatment of Sardar in the Sikh Faith 

message: A short stroll through Wikipedia will find authoritative references to the more widely-accepted derivations of "sir" and "sire" from Latin "senex" and Russian Czar from Latin "Caesar."  Neither of these is originally a title of nobility: "senior" means "older," and "Caesar" derives from the word for "cut."72.94.107.100 (talk) 12:36, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  ['særdʒæ:r] looks incorrect 

message: Sardar Muhammad Ibrahim Khan was famous Kashmir Lawyer and Political figure from Poonch. We have thousand of Articles, Memos, Books in which it is clearly mentioned that his Name was Sardar Muhammad Ibrahim Khan but Wikipedia Reviewer are looking for Proof. A famous person of 1950s who was summoned by United Nations at New York is Looking for his title. Please Support for his title. As deceased person never tells his full name. I am very sad to know that Wikipedia reviewers despite of thousand articles on his name are not accepting it. It is my appeal to Wikipedia Community that please investigate from your side.
