Adding frequent award receivers
Hi :: ! The four names I added are regular Receivers of the award. In fact they have received the award 3 consecutive years that is 2017 2016 and 2015 and are nominated this year as well. Two of the people are very prominent celebrities. Ranveer Singh and Virat Kohli. Nevertheless I will add some citations. (Purplecart (talk) 21:09, 22 November 2018 (UTC))

Hi :: ! Actually Citation 13 already mentions 3 of the 4 names. So ill just add them for now. Will get back with Virat Kohli citations. He is a very important and love by Indian as the Captains the Indian Cricket team. (Purplecart (talk) 21:13, 22 November 2018 (UTC))

Hi :: ! Hope the current edit is according to the Norms. (Purplecart (talk) 21:19, 22 November 2018 (UTC))


 * You need to have a source that SPECIFICALLY says they are frequent receive the award. Judging it yourself is called original research and not allowed on Wikipedia. You need to get better about your sources, too many times it's poorly sourced or not at all.  Ravensfire  (talk) 04:02, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

 * That's pretty classic WP:SYNTHESIS - you're taking several facts from sources and then you are drawing your own conclusion from those facts. That's not allowed on Wikipedia.  You need a source that SPECFICALLY says they are frequent recepients.  Anything else falls into WP:OR / WP:SYNTHESIS and will be removed.  Wikiepdia is very specific about sourcing, you should know that by now.  Ravensfire  (talk) 19:57, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

Hi :: Ok. However this page lacks a lot of notable facts. But unlike the other versions of GQ, this Indian division has not been worked up. Well I will get back with better source content. Thanks(Purplecart (talk) 11:02, 28 November 2018 (UTC))

Hi :: I know it is not good to compare two Wikipedia Pages but I do not have a better way to put myself across. The GQ Australia Page has a section mentioning all the award winners since 2014 It also has section mentioning the editors. Is it Ok to mention this data. There are sources mentioning all the winners for the past years. Is it ok to add this data?? (Purplecart (talk) 11:24, 28 November 2018 (UTC))
