Lead section
edit@Jakichandan please advise why you are making unexplained reversions of edits to the lead without any discussion. Thank you. Ixudi (talk) 20:50, 27 March 2023 (UTC) On closer inspection, the edits are sourced and both mention Bihar as the state. You have actually removed sourced content and made a misleading edit summary that it was unsourced! May need to get admins involved.Ixudi (talk) 20:52, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Ixudi: Better to be more specific as per cited sources. Moreover, eastern terai of Nepal, doesn't include only Madhesh Pradesh but also includes districts like Sunsari, Morang etc. which are also in Mithila. Please explain your point. Moreover, admins are more than welcome to intervene. Thank you.– Jakichandan (talk) 01:40, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
- I have rephrased my edit, hope you agree. Cheers.– Jakichandan (talk) 02:15, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

Any sign of the maithils

Unable to edit this article
editI was going to make a small correction to this article (substituting the informal ampersand with the word "and" in the lead paragraph), but was prevented from doing so because this article appears to be locked from editing. Please fix this ridiculous situation! 98.123.38.211 (talk) 01:15, 28 September 2025 (UTC)
