Untitled

A list of notable recipients of the honour would be interesting. Drutt (talk) 21:56, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A list without references is horrendous. All names without either a reference or an article should be removed altogether. Kittybrewster ☎ 10:17, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Titles in order

I have amended the list of named individuals to include their titles first. It used to be presented like this here a few years ago and I think it helps to see examples of the different suffixes Rao, Rai and Sardar Bahadur. Plus some of these named individuals I had myself researched and added, following the requirement to only include personages who have a Wiki article about them. I was surprised to see some these had been removed, with no explanation that I could see as to why. So I have re-added them. If there is a reason why these people were removed, please feel free to explain below.Mystichumwipe (talk) 19:31, 21 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There’re some names missing in Rao Bahadur

I would like to add the name to the list of Rao Bahadur title, of my grand father Kashinath Krushnaji Kalkar and then became Deputy Collector during British Raj Vilas Kalkar (talk) 15:54, 25 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Vilas Kalkar: As I recommended at Wikipedia:Help desk#Edit, please provide some reliable sources. Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 16:52, 25 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I would also like to add my grandfather Rai Bahadur Tirath Ram Khanna if that is possible. 47.19.21.117 (talk) 22:03, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can provide my email address if it is possible to add him to this web page. 47.19.21.117 (talk) 22:04, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, sorry. Can you point to anything published? DS (talk) 02:20, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure if there is anything published... My family does have the medallion. 170.85.70.164 (talk) 03:57, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I will look into that 170.85.70.164 (talk) 03:58, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

He donated some investigating device to Amritsar Medical College but I dont think we have any records of it. 47.19.21.117 (talk) 13:19, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I’ve the medals with me, would that be sufficient if I scan and send across Vilas Kalkar (talk) 16:57, 25 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No, because anyone could find a picture of the medals online and claim them as their own. I'm not saying that you would do this, I'm saying that it's possible to do this, and therefore if we allowed "here is a picture of the medal" as a source, bad people would abuse this. Because humans are terrible. DS (talk) 03:19, 26 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Vilas Kalkar: have added name of your grandfather Kashinath Krishna Kalkar - Dy Collector of Amalner to page Rao Sahib with link as this page is of Rai Bahadur, check it. Jethwarp (talk) 16:37, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
