replies: text: While your last two sources are considered unreliable for our purposes, it is true that most sources state that his birth name was Gobind Rai as opposed to Das. However other sources indicate that Rai, a generic decorative name denoting nobility and sovereignty, and frequently appended to the names of rulers, was a popular exonym as opposed to his actual birth name. Reliable sources from experts Jagtar Singh Grewal and William Hewat McLeod say that his father named him as Gobind Das, Gobind Rai may have been a later development. Please see the citations (number boxes) near the name “Gobind Das” in the lede. Southasianhistorian8 (talk) 16:00, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

message: The wars section refers to the wars that guru fought against the islamic armies. The term islam and Hinduism should be appropriately used and not to hint the wars as "fought against a religion" rather the names of states, armies, or authorities should be used to refer to their allegiance. 
Ps.
 Guru's wars were a method of self preservation. He did not use it to fight against any specific religion as shown by his act of not harming any religious buildings or communities.
 
The use of religion to associate to an army fighting for a state and not for a religious motive should be used more appropriately. 39.61.152.74 (talk) 08:42, 19 December 2023 (UTC)

message: Guru Gobind Singh Ji was the first Sikh guru, not the 10th, and he helped create the religion but wasn't part of it yet. I barely even read anything and still realised that it was wrong, as a part of the punjabi community i would like to change the lies and pour in the truth, thank you. 2001:56A:F4C4:600:D4:DACC:EF5:2C80 (talk) 20:37, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

message: Gobind Singh was married only once and had all four sons from his wife, Mata Sundari Ji. Sundri ji had a nickname before marriage and then her mother-in-law gave her name "Sundri" after marriage lovingly. This has caused confusion among writers of that period. Then Mata Sahib Kaur was given title "Mother of Khalsa" by Guruji later on. She was not married to Guruji. She wanted to serve his cause and was included in same circle. 198.208.47.93 (talk) 14:57, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
