Line 51:
{{pinged}} To me, the logical scope of "Indian military history" would be {{ordered list|list_style_type=upper-alpha|The military history of any entity, or vassal/proxy of an entity, based in {{ordered list|list_style_type=lower-alpha|the present-day Republic of India and/or|territory that was at the time considered India}}and/or|Any military activities by any other entity that took place in that region.}}<span style="font-family:courier"> -- [[User:Tamzin|<span style="color:#E6007A">Tamzin</span>]]</span><sup class="nowrap">&#91;[[User talk:Tamzin|<i style="color:#E6007A">cetacean needed</i>]]]</sup> <small>([[User:Tamzin/🤷|they&#124;xe&#124;🤷]])</small> 15:46, 3 August 2025 (UTC)
 
:@[[User:Koshuri Sultan|Koshuri Sultan]]: I think this answers the time question as well. But to be clear, no, I don't impute any time-based limit to this. Maybe hypothetically it wouldn't cover conflicts prior to the [[Indus Valley Civilisation]], but honestly even there I'm not sure.{{pb}}I also stopped to think about whether this covers actions by Indian-originating forces far removed from the region. I knew a woman who was the lone survivor of a [[Free French]] unit slaughtered by what she described as renegade British imperial [[gurkhas]], but according to a historian I talked to were more likely soldiers of the Nazi [[Indian Legion]]. Should those fall under Indian military history? But then I thought, yes, they should, and [[Talk:SubasSubhas Chandra Bose]] can speak for itself as to why. Ultimately, any aspect of Indian military history, whether it's from 10 years ago or a thousand years ago, whether it happened in Mumbai or Marseille, has the same tendency to be politicized by contemporary Indian political movements. <span style="font-family:courier"> -- [[User:Tamzin|<span style="color:#E6007A">Tamzin</span>]]</span><sup class="nowrap">&#91;[[User talk:Tamzin|<i style="color:#E6007A">cetacean needed</i>]]]</sup> <small>([[User:Tamzin/🤷|they&#124;xe&#124;🤷]])</small> 17:30, 3 August 2025 (UTC)

*Based on some private discussions that have taken place, while I am okay with an unblock (keeping the existing other restrictions in place) I am uncomfortable doing so unless we limit WMRapids to using a single account.

*I was [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Venezuelan politics/Proposed decision#WMrapids unblocked with a one-account restriction|the only one who thought that a site ban was unnecessary]], and I still believe that. Robert, please see my and Barkeep's comments there regarding use of multiple accounts (and at {{slink|Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Venezuelan_politics/Proposed decision#Use of multiple accounts|nopage=y}} too).
