{{edit extended-protected|Gurjara-Pratihara dynasty|answered=yes}}
Change "Rajapala" to "Rajyapala" in the section under the heading "List of rulers"

Reason: Spelling of the ruler Rajyapala is mentioned as "Rajyapal" in introductory section as well as on other wikipedia pages. [[User:CtrlFreak578|CtrlFreak578]] ([[User talk:CtrlFreak578|talk]]) 21:46, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

: Yes, calling it a "Rajput dynasty" is anachronistic. The "Rajput" term did not exist at the time when the Gurjara-Pratiharas ruled. {{U|PadFoot2008}}, the source you have used is not a strong one.

:The disambig page move makes sense to me, as Padfoot was right that this article is the [[WP:PRIMARYTOPIC]] of "[[Pratihara]]" (just see the disparity in views [https://pageviews.wmcloud.org/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&redirects=0&range=latest-30&pages=Gurjara-Pratihara_dynasty] [https://pageviews.wmcloud.org/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&redirects=0&range=latest-30&pages=Pratiharas_of_Mandavyapura]), but the rest of the changes mostly do not; @[[User:PadFoot2008|PadFoot2008]], could you please explain why you made these changes and the ones in the prior post above?
:In response to the IP's points, [[WP:STABLE]] is not a policy and only pertains to admin actions dealing with article protection when there is a dispute; just because a lead has not changed for a while, and is thus "stable" does not it make it any more correct or better; saying that the Gurjara-Pratihara "initially ruled the Gurjaradesa; hence, they are also called the Gurjara-Pratiharas" is also not original research, as it is mentioned in the origin section, but it is however giving undue weight to a view which is only held by some historians; the same goes for the shortening of the name to "Pratihara". The source which supposedly supports Padfoot's Rajput claim as well has some questionable reliability, and the claim is not supported at all by any content in the [[Origin of the Gurjara-Pratiharas]] article.

::Hello @[[User:Flemmish Nietzsche|Flemmish Nietzsche]], thanks for the ping. The reason why I used "Pratihara dynasty" in the opening section and "Gurjara-Pratiharas" later on it the lead is because the self-designation of the dynasty was "Pratihara" and not Gurjara-Pratihara. Also, it seems that a wide section of scholars seem to use the term Rajput to dynasties as old as the seventh century.

You mentioned Rajput dynasty probably oF Gurjar that's not a [[Wikipedia:Notability|valid claim Pratihar Rajput dynasty]] can not be mentioned as descendant of Gurjars without sources here any user will remove such unsourced claims. So it is better to choose one option I have mentioned above but use sources those I have provided here and format lead properly that Gurjara Pratihara was probably a Gurjar or Rajput dynasty.

'''Option_5'''

No problem you can mentioned "dynasty of ''Rajputs or Gurjars"'''''.''' Or '''"'''Probably Dynasty of Gurjars or Rajput". no matter if you will mention Rajput in first or Gurjar but please don't add that Rajput dynasty of Gurjar origin in your cited sources this claim is not mentioned even in the sources that I have provided here this claim is not found that Gurjara Pratihara dynasty of Rajput is from descendants of Gurjars.

Please correct falls statement that Rajput dynasty probably or Gurjar origin that's not acceptable as this statement is unsourced
Kindly clearly mentioned according to the options that I have provided or you can simply add Gurjara Pratihara dynasty of Rajput or Gurjar Origin. You only mentioned Rajput dynasty that's not fair even you're not ready to use any sources that I have provided to use for Gurjar claims on lead that's issue is still there.

:The reason for the lead is because the authors that say that the Gurjara-Pratiharas were of a Gurjara, also agree that they were at the same time Rajput as well. Have a look at this:
:*Vincent Smith believed that the Pratiharas were certainly of Gurjara (or Gujjar) origin, and stated that there is possibility of other Agnikula Rajput clans being of same origin.
:*Dr. K. Jamanadas also states that the Pratihara clan of Rajputs descended from the Gujjars, and this. "raises a strong presumption that the other Rajput clans also are the descendants from the Gurjaras or the allied foreign immigrants".
:*D. B. Bhandarkar also believed that Pratiharas were a clan of Gujjars. In his book The Glory that was Gujardesh (1943), Gurjar writer K. M. Munshi stated that the Pratiharas and some other Rajput clans were of Gujjar (or Gurjar) origin. However, some other historians believe that although some sections of the Pratiharas (eg. the one to which Mathanadeva belonged) were Gujjars by caste, the imperial Pratiharas of Kannauj were not Gujjars.
:*H. A. Rose and Denzil Ibbetson stated that there is no conclusive proof that the Agnikula Rajput clans are of Gurjara origin;
:The authors above call the dynasty Rajput and state that they might have a Gurjar origin. Additionally the actual name and the common name of the dynasty both are present in the lead, and the article is still at "Gurjara-Pratihara dynasty" and I've not moved it or anything.

This graph clearly shows the prevalence of ''simply'' "Pratihara(s)" over "Gurjara-Pratihara(s)" by a very large margin, i.e, more than 4 times. In my course of editing for Wikipedia, I've seen that scholars usually use simply "Pratihara" more than "Gurajara-Pratihara".

:* This is not an AfD.
:* Though, Rawn agrees with me on certain stances, we don't always see eye to eye. I am currently involved in an editorial dispute with him as well.
:* I did think that ECR applied to this page, but Flemmish explained to me above that it didn't.
:* Also it's pretty likely that you and the other IPs are part of a sockfarm and I've filed an SPI. The first IP of this sockfarm has already been blocked and struck. I would request an ECR here however, as sockfarms of both pro-Rajput and anti-Rajput sides are getting involved.

== Gurjar Pratihars are Rajputs ==

Gurjar , gujjar or gujar is not a clan , race or caste . There was place of land called gurjaratra present day gujarat . The people rules that place often use this as surname or identify themselves , like the partihar clan of Rajput ruled there was thus called Gurjar Pratihars . The ancestry of mihir bhoj is still present in nagaur district of Rajasthan. [[User:HistorianOP|HistorianOP]] ([[User talk:HistorianOP|talk]]) 21:24, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
