Reworking

Hello all - was thinking of adding some substantial edits to the article. Flow seems choppy. Actionjackson09 (talk) 02:24, 17 October 2018 (UTC)

Blatant POV pushing

The article has been edited by many editors to POV push against BAPS and other sampradayas in favor of the Laxmi Narayan and Nar Narayan Gadis. This is evident through the edits and through the names of one major editor which is Gaybaps. This needs an investigation into POV pushing and an article rewrite. 2600:4040:60AC:6500:8C19:148D:3902:DD16 (talk) 01:12, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

Serious? This article was hijacked by a BAPS-sock-puppeteer; we've seen enough already of this attitude here. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 05:01, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

There was a sockpuppet against other sampradyas after those sockpuppets. There is no reason to be biased against any of them. We need to remove certain biases in this article. Specifically, we need to revert the change in the introduction of Swaminarayan as a manifestation of Krishna as majority of Swaminarayan followers believe him to be either a manifestation of Krishna or Vishnu or a Manifestation of supreme god. Then original edit was better and we should reach a consensus on wether we should change this or keep it as is. Ram112313 (talk) 16:12, 19 October 2022 (UTC)

I am follower of Swaminarayan sect. And I know what is written about Swaminarayan in the ancient scripture Skanda Purana. But now this article cannot be edited, please remove this protection.And make it editable. I will surely help you in this. I promise to add accurate and unbiased information. ભાવિક (talk) 05:09, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

 Not done: this is not the right page to request additional user rights. You may reopen this request with the specific changes to be made and someone may add them for you, or if you have an account, you can wait until you are autoconfirmed and edit the page yourself.

The birthdate of lord swaminarayan is wrong

in the article the date is 3rd april but according to my research with few people and this article from official website https://www.swaminarayan.faith/articles/biography-of-lord-swaminarayan It is 2nd April Please correct it as soon as possible 2405:201:2005:782E:A0A9:FE69:A8C7:D9C6 (talk) 22:16, 4 April 2023 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 21 April 2023

Expand this page further — Preceding unsigned comment added by ભાવિક (talkcontribs) 05:01, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

Remove the word yogi from this article. If Swaminarayan was God, then he should get at least that much respect

People who have not read the scriptures of the Swaminarayan Sampradaya have no right to edit this page. In none of the scriptures of the Swaminarayan sect, he is called only a yogi. They are God. So he was proficient in yogic action. I have nothing more to say but just remove the word Yogi from the article. And at least use the word God. If you see references to him being God I will give them.But please don't insult our Lord like this. Don't edit the page if you don't know about our sect. It hurts our feelings ભાવિક (talk) 05:18, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
