Context[edit]

I added a {{context}} tag to this article. Why is this tag needed? Here are some examples. My questions or comments are italicized.

"References in Mahabharata" - What is Mahabharata?

“... at (12,206).” - What does this refer to?

"The Aryavarta-kings had doubts on dealing with them. (12,64)" - Why? How reliable is the “(12,64)” source? Are there other (scholarly) sources?

"Kiratas as a Mlechha tribe" - What is a “Mlechha tribe”?

“Kiratas were mentioned along with Pulindas and Chinas, Hunas, Pahlavas, Sakas, Yavanas, Savaras, Paundras, Kanchis, Dravidas, Sinhalas and Keralas. All these tribes were described as Mlechha tribes. Here they were described as the protectors of sage Vasistha and his cow against the attack of king Viswamitra. (1,177).” - Most English readers who do not have a familiarity with south Asia--India, Nepal, etc.--will glaze over with all these unfamiliar names, and it’s too much to have to read every wikilinked article. An overarching summary is needed for this encyclopedia article, with more resources listed at the bottom of the article for those who want to study in depth.

Note that if this article was written for a different Wikipedia site, e.g., https://hi.wikipedia.org/ or https://ne.wikipedia.org/, then the present organization and level of detail might be perfectly appropriate. - Mark D Worthen PsyD 03:28, 12 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Khajen Rai[edit]

All the tribes and Clans should be focus in the mainstream of KIRAT for accuracy. I could recall my memories that in the year 2013-14 in the History of Nepal in Wikipedia, they mentioned the name Kirat Kingdom in a more elaborate ways. But, today I see the a Word only KIRATA.... Well, being a Kirati tribe I am very disappointed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Khajen Rai (talk • contribs) 14:23, 21 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
