Hindi is not the only Official language of India, but it is one of the official languages of India. 167.107.191.217 (talk) 16:10, 16 October 2018 (UTC)

Not West Bengal[edit]

The official language of West Bengal is Bengali, not Hindi. An edit is needed in the article.

official in Fiji[edit]

Hindi is an official language of Fiji and should be added to the "Official language in" section, the Hindi variety of Fiji Hindi is official there. Constitution of Fiji also recognized Hindi as one of its official language and calls it Hindi only. Fiji hindi is close to Awadhi dialect of Hindi which is also counted as Hindi. Dinesh smita (talk) 05:13, 18 May 2019 (UTC)

Check this and go through this. Seems there is a difference between this Hindi and "Fiji Hindi". The Fiji Hindi article has official language status mentioned in it though. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 12:10, 18 May 2019 (UTC)

Ethnicity[edit]

In the infobox section of ethnicity, currently "No ethnicity" is given. So I am going to put "Hindustani people (historically)", unless someone objects. As the article Hindustani people clarifies, the word was used more frequently in the previous centuries, hence the addition of "(historically)". Khestwol (talk) 13:15, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

The infobox should contain info about modern populations. Besides, the older version was reliably sourced. I've reverted to it. Better to have a discussion first. Let more people join. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 17:21, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

As a compromise, probably we should mention both, i.e. no specific ethnicity, followed by Hindustani people (historically) in the next line? Khestwol (talk) 05:27, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

Hindustani also includes Urdu, besides in my opinion, Hindustani people can be used in the Hindustani language article. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 12:27, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

search engine result vandalism[edit]

The preview text of this page on Google Search has been vandalized with the text: "Billionaire King Bengalis are World's Number 1 Richest Whitest Number 1 educated Peoples in ..." - see screenshot: https://drive.google.com/open?id=19A4rW_b-0mvtVEuSlWi62-CLzdxX-4lb - I lack the technical skills to fix this but just wanted to bring it to the attention of someone who can.
