The Meitei people[26] represent around 53% of the population of Manipur state, followed by various Naga ethnic groups at 24% and various Kuki/Zo tribes (also known as Chin-Kuki-Mizo people) at 16%. The Meitei Pangal people represent 8.04% of the total population.[27] Manipur's ethnic groups practice a variety of religions.[28] According to 2011 census, Hinduism, Christianity, Islam, and Sanamahism are the major religions of the state.[28][29] Between the 1961 and 2011 censuses of India, the share of Hindus in the state declined from 62% to 41%, while the share of Christians rose from 19% to 41%.[30] Deheave (talk) 18:50, 19 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reinstated sock edit[edit]

Yangwikip, reinstated the edit of a blocked sockpuppet, without explanation. Can you please provide page numbers and quotations from the sources that establish the veracity of the statement, "The recorded history of Manipur can be traced back to 33 A.D"? -- Kautilya3 (talk) 15:06, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the content: -- Kautilya3 (talk) 16:58, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The recorded history of Manipur can be traced back to 33 A.D.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4] As S.S. Hanjabam writes in his article in Asia Europe Journal, "The Manipuris had established a sophisticated kingdom at a time when state formation was unknown to most parts of the region"^[5].

Please remove paragraph about "Manipur violence 2023 related to external aggression " and add a link to "Manipur violence 2023" instead.[edit]

The page is meant for projecting the demography, culture, language, economy, people, history, etc, of the state. Adding a paragraph about the ongoing violence is not doing justice to the ethos and all the communities residing in the state.

None of the other pages have a paragraph on violence - Gujarat, Kerela, West Bengal, Chhattisgarh, etc.

Thanks for giving permission. The paragraph is removed. So also wanted to highlight to the team that there is separate page for "2023 Israel–Hamas war" which is separate from the main "Israel" page. Cherry.pick.wiki (talk) 12:21, 14 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Cherry.pick.wiki No one has "given permission" You appear to be trying to whitewash the article by removing all reference to the Manipur violence 2023 - Arjayay (talk) 12:28, 14 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

HI @Arjayay , there is a separate page for "2023 Israel–Hamas war". is that a white wash? Cherry.pick.wiki (talk) 12:29, 14 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Cherry.pick.wiki - What happens on other pages is not a valid argument, please see WP:OTHERCONTENT - Arjayay (talk) 12:40, 14 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

ok, got it Cherry.pick.wiki (talk) 12:49, 14 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It is a WP:POV section and not a high-level summary. I cut it down a bit, but a proper summary still needs to be constructed. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 15:23, 14 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This line below needs to be removed as this is not neutral. It highlights only one atrocity out of a series of crimes committed. There are other incidents that attracted international attention. If we need to mention incidents, then we need to include all major ones. Or, not mention any at all.

"International outrage resulted from a report that two Kuki women had been paraded naked and allegedly gang-raped by a mob of Meitei men." Lairencha (talk) 14:02, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
