Just useless. Several identically sourced/formatted articles have recently been deleted at AfD, eg:
- Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Jat_clans_of_Multan_Division and
- Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Muslim_Jat_clans_of_Lahore_Division
- Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Muslim_Rajput_clans_of_Rawalpindi_Division
- Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Rajput_clans_of_Ambala_Division
As I said then, what is the point of this, bearing in mind that the lead says "The appearance of a particular tribe as Rajput in the list does not in itself confirm that the tribe is Rajput or otherwise. Identity may change with time, and some groups in the list may no longer identify themselves as Rajput." Also bear in mind that the 1911 census was not reliable, being subject to the huge misunderstandings resultant from the influence of H. H. Risley and other scientific racists. It's basically just a transcription of a primary source. One past AfD was contested at WP:DRV but the outcome remained the same. Sitush (talk) 09:10, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

- Delete Another of a network of garbage created by same editor.
- Comment And @Sitush, maybe you have forgot it, but I notice there is User:Sitush/sandbox3, which you wrote during the previous round of Afd debates. It can fit well in the title History of the Census of India (redlinked in your user page)and can explain well why the 1911 census was not reliable. Solomon7968 12:50, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
- Yeah, I've been hanging off moving that draft into mainspace because I want to get hold of a copy of the book I mention in the further reading section. I can only see snippets of it but the thing looks to be very useful. - Sitush (talk) 11:15, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
