Rfv-sense of "An origin of many religions including Sikhism, Jainism, Buddhism." I think the classification as a proper noun arose as a mistake, as the regular noun was early on miscategorised as a proper noun (diff). Before that a POV-pushing IP added this definition (diff) along with an even crappier one. If this is attestable, it would be desirable to improve the definition so that users can tell whether this is actually synonymous with Hinduism, etc. ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 09:05, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
- It looks like a mistake for Hinduism. I would just remove it. SemperBlotto (talk) 09:08, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

Etymology
[edit]Term Hindu/Hindoo is often associated with derogatory meanings.
So sense of etymology must be different then what is used for Hindu/Hindoo as a geo political identity. Rihantel (talk) 03:58, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
