:] It isn't a personal view. British India refers to provinces of India during the Raj. British Raj refers to the period of British Crown rule over India from 1858 to 1947, sometimes the rule itself. While the entire country including "British India" and the princely states during the Raj, was called India or Indian Empire. This is a really basic thing, any editor working on articles related to modern Indian history should know this.] (]) 09:34, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

Amongst these ... was the East India Company, a British trading company established by Royal Charter of Elizabeth I of England in 1600. The Company gradually expanded its influence in South Asia, in the first instance through coastal trading posts at Surat, Madras and Calcutta. (The British) expanded their influence, winning political control of Bengal and Bihar after the Battle of Plassey in 1757. From here, the Company expanded its influence dramatically across the subcontinent. By 1857, it had direct control over much of the region. The great rebellion of that year, however, demonstrated the limitations of this commercial company's ability to administer these vast territories, and in 1858 the Company was effectively nationalized, with the British Crown assuming administrative control. Hence began the period known as the British Raj, which ended in 1947 with the partition of the subcontinent into the independent nation-states of India and Pakistan.}}

British Raj refers to the Crown rule over India between 1858 to 1947 itself or the period, while Indian Empire is a term mentioned in the Imperial Gazetteer of India used to refer to territorial extent of India during this time.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit <strong>carefully</strong> and <strong>constructively</strong>, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
*adhere to the purposes of Misplaced Pages;
*comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
*follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
*comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
*refrain from gaming the system.

2) The ] started as a retaliation as mentioned by me in the discussion ].
Hello


3) I have edited on Misplaced Pages and in the past month, we can not find a single instance where I indulged in vandalism or POV pushes as mentioned in the enforcement.
I understand that Indian Army was called as so before independence also and the term British Indian Army is only used so that pre-independence army could be distinguished from the present one. But using only the formation date of the British administered Indian Army would deceive readers in thinking that present organisation is same as the old one without being a separate entity, but that's not the case.


I request you to Kindly share your opinion in the discussion.
You may see other articles infobox which have same format for the dates like ], ], ]. Even article about ] and ] use the same format, even though Indian Air Force at it's time of formation in 1932 was just called Indian Air Force and only between 1945-1950 the term Royal Indian Air Force was used.

:Your examples are not valid. Those entities had name changes or had been independent entities earlier. (Even RIN had a name change in 1950.) The same thing doesn't apply to the Indian Army.

Magdhan Empire

Hi @PadFoot2008 I was going through the Magdhan Empire page created by you, and at that time I saw that it was nominated for deletion, but before voting, I want to ask you as you have created the article. How would you explain Maurya Empire and Magdhan Empire, and prior to that, Nanda Empire, basically one state with two different names and articles? What I think is that Maurya and Nanda should be changed to dynasties instead of empires.

Regards Rawn3012 (talk) 14:05, 17 November 2024 (UTC)

I would agree with you. Nandas and Mauryas were dynasties of the Magadhan Empire. There is currently an ongoing RM at Nanda Empire to move to Nanda dynasty, if you'd like to participate. PadFoot (talk) 14:40, 17 November 2024 (UTC)
