Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. As far as I can tell, neither Telangana nor Maharastra are mentioned within the page as you claimed. Therefore, we request that you provide a reliable source for this change. Thank you. TimSmit (talk) 21:19, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

I'm looking around for duplicate arguments in template calls, and I found one for the "quote" parameter in this source:
{{cite book|editor1-last=Jakka Parthasarathy |author2=|title=Rural Population in Indian Urban Setting
|volume= |publisher=B.R. Publishing Corporation |year=1984|page=52|quote=|quote=Balija are the chief Telugu trading caste , scattered ! throughout Andhra Pradesh , Karnataka and Tamil Nadu| url=https://books.google.co.in/books?id=KLwiAAAAMAAJ }}. Could you please change it to
{{cite book|editor1-last=Jakka Parthasarathy |author2=|title=Rural Population in Indian Urban Setting

In "Balija branches", Please add the following division:
- lingayat vani are prominent in marathwada(earlier in nizam's dominions) region of maharashtra.The term Vani is derived from the Sanskrit word Vanijya which means trade. They were veershaiva Hindu by faith and were traders, zamindars and sometimes priest by profession. They usually kept weapons like swords and some are even believed to be warriors in nayaka- veerashaiva kingdoms. They worship Lord Virabhadra as their kula devata. They carry surnames like Nandkule, Deshmukh, Desai, Patil, Appa, Devane, Rao, Eklare, Naik etc. [1][2][3] PerspicazHistorian (talk) 19:05, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- @ARandomName123 kindly look into the request. 103.95.164.201 (talk) 16:00, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
