POV Check

Generally, the factual outline seems reasonable. However, the POV seems to be clearly biased in favor of a particular political/sectarian reading of history. This bias is reinforced in the sources used, all of which upon at least cursory examination are highly partial to one particular viewpoint. IronSheep (talk) 04:47, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

The POV of this article is an issue. It sets it up as Muslims V Sikhs, while it seems to be a conflict by an invading Nation. Which happen to be Muslims. These people who happen to be Muslim did not kill the Sikhs because they were Sikhs. Just like in Darfur was there a religious motive (both side shared the same religion). So we cannot confuse religion in a conflict over land and conquest.Same is true for Indira's attack on the Sikh temple, it was not a religious issue.--Halqh حَلَقَة הלכהሐላቃህ (talk) 11:50, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

ITS MISSING A WHOLE POINT ON HOW DID THE SIKHS THEN TAKE BACK HARI MANDIR SAHIB???? THERES NO ACCOUNT OF IT ON THE PAGE, DOESNT MAKE SENSE, THIS ARTICLE NEEDS CLEANING UP AND PUT IN CHRONILOGICAL ORDER OF EVENTS. VERY CONFUSING!!!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.6.109.124 (talk) 15:05, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

After holocaust

The flow of this article seems abrupt; a brief section on the later events and activities of the Sikhs after the holocaust would be helpful. -- Roadahead ★ 22:50, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Holocaust (a proper noun reference) is a historical definition in particular to the events of Nazi Germany. This article msut renamed Ghallugarha for clarity. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 113.11.48.195 (talk) 13:30, 7 March 2015 (UTC)

Article name

What is the preferred transliteration scheme for Punjabi ? In particular, should ਘੱਲੂਘਾਰਾ be transliterated into English as:

• Ghalooghaaraa
• Ghalughara
• something else ?

Ditto, for the article Chhotaa Ghallooghaaraa. Abecedare (talk) 20:34, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Sikh holocaust of 1762 → Sikh genocide of 1762 – The word "holocaust" is too opinionated. There's no reason to use the more straight forward word "genocide". Durranina (talk) 17:52, 14 June 2015 (UTC) -> Support. Holocaust should be reserved for the WWII persecution. We're not calling all genocides 'holocaust'. Also, 30 thousand people? Not sure if this is genocide or 'normal' invasion practices. 77.167.250.126 (talk) 20:13, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

Citations for holocaust,[1][2][3] it is referred as massacre or holocaust, but holocaust is more common. Raymond3023 (talk) 04:08, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
