Wrong template, good idea.

[edit]

Guru Nanak, the real and only avatar in Sikh Gurus, forbid and ridiculed rituals and so called Sikh Rehat Maryada is nothing BUT another form of rituals. Furthermore, SGGS ridiculed pandit who wears Janeos, and we as Sikh not only wear one but 5 Janeo - well we made up our own Janeos. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.174.75.3 (talk) 19:10, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Rehat Maryada - simply means "code of conduct". This article is about the Sikh Rehat Maryada (also transliterated Rehit Maryada). - Sinneed 14:11, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Since the article explicitly begins with the "Sikh Rehat Maryada" and addresses it exclusively, is there any need to discuss or can we safely wp:Be Bold and move the article? I don't anticipate any objection. I'll be happy to do the move, it should not need an admin, but I would want to see another voice here on the talk page, 1st.- Sinneed 21:18, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with you. Article name should be either 'Sikh Rehat Maryada' OR 'Sikh Code Of Conduct'. If editors choose to name it 'Sikh Code of Cunduct' then 'Sikh Rehat Maryada' sould be kept in brackets in the lead section. This is wiki english so 'pure english' title "Sikh Code of Conduct" will suit it better.
Since most of the non-Sikhs do not understand typical Punjabi title 'Rehat Maryada' so this article is somewhat saved. But please be cautious, naming it 'Sikh Code of Conduct' will attract anti-Sikh forces of India, who will try their best to distort it. Especially hidden Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh cadres (who might have any respectable positions in wiki), who want to distort facts about Sikhism so that they could eventually bring Sikhism back to Hinduism. Anyways, all the best with your efforts to make it more informative.--24.5.208.21 (talk) 19:43, 19 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps a redirect from "Sikh code of conduct", once the article name stabilizes.- Sinneed 17:21, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Further, this seems to be the name it is known by, as "Talmud" and "Qur'an" (with a redirect from "Koran"). Interestingly, there is no redirect to Qur'an from "The recitation". Since the book is so widely known under the transliterated title I don't know that it is needed there or here, but I think the article title should be the transliterated one (as proposed), rather than the translated one.- Sinneed 17:25, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

The result of the move request was page moved.  Skomorokh  11:34, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rehat Maryada → Sikh Rehat Maryada — The term "Rehat Maryada" means just Code of Conduct. Code of Conduct is a generic term. This article is specifically about the "Sikh" Rehat Marayada (Sikh Code of Conduct). In India there are many Rehat Maryada's. Hinduism, Buddism, Islam, Christianity etc, all have REhat Maryada's. Therefore to make this article more specific, It should be named "Sikh Rehat Maryada". See the following references:

Comment Regardless of what it means for Sikhs, are you sure the term "Rehat Maryada" isn't the common term for this in English? See WP:UE. To give an example, the Talmud, an important text in Judaism, simply means "instruction" in Hebrew. Also, I can't access the sources you are providing. 84.92.117.93 (talk) 14:01, 19 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am 100% sure about the term "Rehat Maryada". It is a Punjabi term and can be applied to many sects/religion/cults and groups. All it means is code of conduct. The "Sikh Rehat Maryada" applies specifically to Sikhs, as this article alludes to. We could have a seprate article just on Rehat Maryada i.e. what it means. Thanks--Sikh-History 12:24, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support Seems a strong case for the move. I notice that some sources also call the Sikh Code of Conduct just "Rehat Maryada", such as the Sikh Wiki, but there seem to be enough strong academic sources calling it the "Sikh Rehat Maryada" to make a strong case for the move, particuarly if "Rehat Maryada" is ambiguous. I've replaced "NewName" in the move request with "Sikh Rehat Maryada", so that administrators can see more clearly the title you wish this article to be at. 84.92.117.93 (talk) 15:30, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I agree with this proposal. Article name should either be 'Sikh Rehat Maryada' OR 'Sikh Code Of Conduct'.

Alternate transliterations

[edit]

I added 2, one with the SGPC as a source. I did not create the redirect, as I think we are going to move the article once the formal review closes. It might be worth creating them.- Sinneed 15:00, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article should be about the SRM, not just a listing thereof

[edit]

I'm concerned that instead of being an article about the SRM, this is just copying the document and presenting it with little context or critical analysis. I racked my brains for a good well-developed article to compare this to, conceptually, and came up with Ten Commandments. Notice how that article does mention the basic 10, but the actual text thereof takes up very little of the article, which is primarily focused on the overall implications of the Commandments. I suggest that ideally this article should be similar, and not just quoting the SGPC's publication at length. MatthewVanitas (talk) 15:50, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed New Structure July 2015

[edit]

Echoing MatthewVanitas above, this article might be better structured thus:

  • History (of the SRM only)
  • Content (an overview, not the actual content)
  • Current Status
  • Other Rehat Maryadas
