Notify your editions properly people

Anybody before making any edition to the page, notify the reason properly by listing next time. I am listing mine right now as I have re-edited some deleted important information about the Khalsa Army deleted for some unknown reason.Wjkk20 12:49 PM 09 November 2008 —Preceding undated comment was added at 20:50, 9 November 2008 (UTC).[reply]

Hi this article was started by me in Febuary 2007. After rechecking my books significant sections are wrong. Moreover, the stats I copied on hearsay. I then checked the references I supplied with the corresponding books and they were wrong so I am removing the stats I supplied on Feb 2007. A further problem is incorrect data and stats that I supplied have been copied by many sites.--Sikh historian (talk) 17:36, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Size of the Army

We know that the Panjab Army was organized on the European model having been trained and organized by many of Napoleans ex-generals who became mercerneries. Does anyone know the exact figure of the army? i.e. infantry number etc...

Orphaned references in Sikh Khalsa Army

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Sikh Khalsa Army's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 14:25, 19 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Inaccurate information about the first Anglo Sikh War

Maharaja Lal Singh and Tej Singh were Sikhs, one could argue that, they acted in Dogra interests, but this article seems to indicate that they were betrayed solely by Hindus, "The Sikhs Heroically resisted the British", does seem that this statement was added by someone, who wasn't entirely neutral — Preceding unsigned comment added by 183.83.71.8 (talk) 02:18, 5 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Lal Singh was a Hindu dogar himself but he later converted to sikhi not because he believed in the religion but just to obtain a better position. Overall the ppl to blame would be the Lahore dubar so all the Sikhs, Hindus and Muslims who decide to betray their army. The main ones would be the dogar brothers who started the chaos that lead to the end of the Sikh empire, jind Kaur as she made many poor choices and allied with the wrong people and both Lal and tej Singh who purposely lost the war. 184.65.94.141 (talk) 14:15, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
