[edit]I've reverted you. You are calling Indian scholars writing recently "colonial era" which makes me think you haven't even checked the sources. Someone writing in 1898 cannot refute someone writing in the last decade or two. And "The above mentioned scholars (including Ambedkar an anti-Vedic Buddhist) following the trend of European orientalists at the time were trying to undermine the antiquity of Vedic civilization as part of their colonial strategy of psychological warfare against the native Indians." is completely unsourced and should not be replaced without sources and probably attribution as well. Ah, and please don't throw around accusations of racism. I've raised your edits at [[Wikipedia talk:Noticeboard for India-related topics#Purusha sukta - some eyes please]] where we both might get some advice. Dougweller (talk) 19:21, 3 November 2014 (UTC)

[edit]Please do not add or change content, as you did to Purusha sukta, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. As well as violation of WP:NPOV. Dougweller (talk) 20:18, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at Purusha sukta shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
For now I have editing your content to remove the POV categorization of scholars (which is especially silly given that Aiyar himself is a "colonial era" scholar), but have retained your quote. If you have further suggestions for the article, take them to the talk page, since continued POV-pushing and edit-warring is more likely to get you blocked from editing wikipedia.
