  • 21:1521:15, 6 April 2020 diff hist +434 Kayastha→‎Notable people: Replaced the existing source with two books. The existing source was a citation from a recently printed news article. Though satisfactory in nature, it has been updated with two books specifically dealing with the Presidents of India and Sri Rajendra Prasad. Also added description for Sri Ravishankar Prasad, Honourable Union Minister, GoI. Tags: Mobile edit Mobile web edit Advanced mobile edit
  • 21:0821:08, 6 April 2020 diff hist +3,038 Chitraguptavanshi Kayastha→‎Common Sub-castes: Added a new section of notable people along with a few names accompanied by sources. Other editors are encouraged to add names only if the sources accompany the same. The argument of common surname is not a valid exception. It may not be used as an excuse to add names unless the same is supported with sources. Tags: Mobile edit Mobile web edit Advanced mobile edit
  • 20:4820:48, 6 April 2020 diff hist +1,468 Chitraguptavanshi Kayastha→‎Modern origin and social status: The sentence was misleading as it indicated that some group of 626 Pandits gave one decision at the same time in one go. In reality several councils comprising of several Pandits of several regions passed several such decisions over a period of time. Also added source for the unsourced assertion.

  • 20:3820:38, 6 April 2020 diff hist −519 Chitraguptavanshi Kayastha→‎Modern origin and social status: The cited source 'Scribal elites in Sultanate and Mughal Bengal' specifically talks about Bengal as the name reflects. It is misleading and completely false for pan-India Kayastha caste and contrary to what several high grade sources suggest. Also the sentence made no sense for the pan-India Kayastha caste as it finds mention in several religious and historical books dated several centuries back. Hence removed.

  • 16:4416:44, 6 April 2020 diff hist +965 Talk:Bengali Kayastha→‎Major work required for improvement for the Bengali Kayastha page: Lets improve this page first, everything else can come later. Tags: Mobile edit Mobile web edit Advanced mobile edit
  • 12:1912:19, 6 April 2020 diff hist +1,219 Talk:Bengali KayasthaThe article currently is regressive and needs major improvement. There has been so much achievements by their philosophers, poets, historians, archaeologists, preachers and freedom-fighters, scientists but one is disappointed upon reading this is article to find little to no mention.

  • 12:0012:00, 6 April 2020 diff hist +1,207 Bengali KayasthaThe quote has been added with the source. Also this article needs much improvement with addition of material such as their historical mentions in different edicts, secular and administrative texts and a section for Prominet Bengali Kayasthas. Currently it looks like a regressive article dealing only with divisive material. There has been so much achievements by their philosophers, poets, historians, archaeologists, preachers and scientists but one is disappointed upon reading this is article...
