Talk:Indian hip hop

Untitled
Should this article be removed/integrated into Bhangra article?
 * Probably not, since Indian Hiphop clearly is another music style/scene. Also, there is already a "link-box" for world hiphop. The article needs a lot of work, though.

Yes, it does - at the moment there are maybe three artists given as examples of the Indian hip hop scene, and There are no references to be seen. S facets 17:29, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Mysteriously vanished content
When I last visited this page (early March 2008) the page was 12-15 kilobytes long and had much info. Sure, much of it was junk, spamming, and OR, but the thing is that info started vanishing little by little mysteriously, without any edit summaries or a discussion taking place in the talk-page. Meseems, that someone knowledgeable on the subject must revisit the article's older versions and reorganize the old content (and, of course, reference it). Moreover, there seems to exist a controversy over what constitutes Indian HH. Is it HH from India, or is it HH having verses in an Indic language or dialect, or is it HH from ethnic Indians around the world? As I said, discussion is needed, not successive reverts.

 * Sources are needed. You can discuss it all you want until you're blue in the face.  Sources are still needed.  We're here to build an encyclopedia based upon reliable third party sources, not a free advertising platform for non-notable garage bands.  JBsupreme (talk) 08:04, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Indian hip hop
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Indian hip hop's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 18:32, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
