Date founded

{{ping|Ekabhishek}} you provided the date 823 in an old edit to this page, without adding a citation.[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Garhwal_Kingdom&diff=prev&oldid=272011021]

{{User|Tarbooj}} later entered 888 in the infobox,[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Garhwal_Kingdom&diff=prev&oldid=453364926] but not changing your text that still says 823.

Can you provide a citation to resolve this inconsistency? – Fayenatic London 09:18, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

::A few of the ancient Indian kingdoms are done that way; most not.

  • Support The ngrams don't have enough results for a wildcard search eg Garhwal kingdom * but google shcollar ([https://scholar.google.com.au/scholar?start=10&q=%22Garhwal+kingdom%22&hl=en&as_sdt=0,5 here]) is quite convincing that this is not consistently capped per MOS:CAPS and WP:NCCAPS.

  • Support Kingdom of Garhwal per consistency with almost every other kingdom (e.g. Kingdom of France, Kingdom of Italy, etc.) 🐔 Chicdat  Bawk to me! 22:45, 25 May 2025 (UTC)

Note that it would still be lowercase kingdom when non sentence-initial. And Gahrwal kingdom is historically much more common. Dicklyon (talk) 03:55, 26 May 2025 (UTC)
