Merge to a master

K3 and JJ - how about trimming and merging all [most - ?] of the individual articles in this category to Kingdoms in Mahabharata? Almost every article is a spam magnet with negligible support from HISTRS. TrangaBellam (talk) 05:22, 17 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@TrangaBellam: good idea. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 07:16, 17 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If the lead starts with "... a kingdom mentioned in Mahabharata", then it is only about what the Mahabharata says. It doesn't have to exist in the real world. Whether such a page has any value or not, I don't know. We might need to raise at WT:INDIA.

For other locations/kingdoms/regions that are real, we need to base them on WP:HISTRS only, except that there might be a section "In the Mahabharata", which describes what the Mahabharata says.

How about we first create a subcategory here, Category:Historical kingdoms mentioned in the Mahabharata? -- Kautilya3 (talk) 09:49, 17 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
