message: Hallo everybody, 
the term Takhan is of Sogdian origine. The Tarkhan people could be a remnants of those ancient Sogdians that colonies as Buddhists and to a small part as Shiva-Worshipper northwest India and Pakistan since Sogdians were very good and famous merchants. They also reached Europe and a remnants of them still live in the Balkan region. Most represent descandts of Sogdians are modern Tajiks, eastern Persians who live in Pakistan, particularly in Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kashmir and India (Delhi and Bombey). Don´t exchange them with their Parsee brothers. At least you could add this information there.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.59.199.190 (talk) 13:16, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

That was nearly 16 months ago. I'd like to review this to see if semiprotection is still necessary. As well as welcoming comments from regular editors I've contacted Dbachmann, the protecting admin. --TS 17:44, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: I would like to bring your kind notice towards this point that Janjuas are the most prominent Rajput and Jat caste in Punjab, india and pakistan. they are being mentioned in 36 Royal races. And never mentioned in anywhere in history that Janjua is the tribe of Tarhaas kindly remove this from the list and correct the history. Even if a Tarhan use the Sur Name as janjua, he says that he is a Rajput Janjua but not Tarhaan. Kindly remove it form the articel.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 182.177.209.115 (talk) 07:30, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

replies: text: There was masses of copy/paste from unreliable websites, at least one of which seemed to mirror Wikipedia. I reverted to get round that problem and then trimmed the known unreliable remainder. I've also got no idea why this article is named as at present - it should be at Tarkhan (tribe), Tarkhan tribe or some other variant that involves a lower-cased second word. - Sitush (talk) 02:23, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

message: Tarkhan is corrupt version of sanskrit word Takshaka(तक्षक) which means carpenter. yes if it's aobut caste/community specially carpenters it is important to add original word Takshaka because it's comes from ancient architecture and 'vaastu. I hope you will understand add it pls go through Vastu section to know the meaning of Takshaka https://www.wisdomlib.org/definition/takshaka and my recent edit already reference are added.
