Proposed merge of Kapisi into Kingdom of Kapisa
edit- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
- Unanimous consensus to merge. TrangaBellam (talk) 17:22, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
We do not need two separate articles on an ancient C. Asian polity and its capital town. Almost 90% of the text will be redundant.
That being said, the current condition of the article is quite a feat. Among the sources are anything and everything from Aṣṭādhyāyī to Mahabharata to ravings by amateur colonial scholars to Hindutva jackasses to Jataka cannon to self-published books to a couple of modern scholars.

- Merge this page into Kapisi and rename the latter to Kapisa. Most of its content is about the kingdom rather than the city anyway. Given that, I am not sure what this page is doing here! -- Kautilya3 (talk) 00:22, 24 January 2022 (UTC)
- Merge. I am fine with Merge into Kingdom of Kapisa, as long as we properly rescue what valuable material there is in the Kapisi article. No easy blanking and redirect please. पाटलिपुत्र Pat (talk) 06:22, 24 January 2022 (UTC)
- There is no valuable material. None of the cited scholarship is from the past three or four decades and as someone who has an interest in C. Asian history, I hope you understand the connotations.
- I can delete the material citing WP:RS and WP:HISTRS, if you wish so. TrangaBellam (talk) 09:22, 24 January 2022 (UTC)
Merger complete. , noting that I've done this simply, without the cuts alluded to above. Feel free to trim in its current location. Klbrain (talk) 23:48, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
This edit established the use of the page as BC/AD. Kindly maintain it consistently, pending a new consensus to the contrary. — LlywelynII 09:57, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
Just curious
editWhat does this article think that italics means? If it's using them for quotation, they need to be replaced with actual quote marks. If it's using them for style or indirect quotation, they just need to be removed... y'know, aside from the few places where they're being used to mark titles, specific words of transcribed foreign text, or specifically emphasized words. — LlywelynII 10:17, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
