Talk:Pitram Singh Kala

Downgraded to Stub-class article
@Aviram7: I have downgraded this article assessment to a Stub-class article. All this article tells me is that this politician exists and their number of votes, party and electorate. Wikipedia is not an excessive listings of unexplained statistics. When I read an article that is in the name of a politician, I expect to read something informative about them, like how old they are, what they stand for, and what makes them notable to have a Wikipedia article. Multiple sources reporting election results are not informative enough if they all say the same thing. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 06:19, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

Wikiproject banners
Why does this article have a WikiProject Crime and Criminal Biography assessment banner. The article says nothing about this person being a criminal or victim of a notable crime. Or is Indian politics so corrupt that this is an assumed requirement? Is this a mistake or deliberate? - Cameron Dewe (talk) 06:27, 18 January 2024 (UTC)


 * @Cameron Dewe Hi,Thank you for downgrading the assessment of this article and the topic has nothing to do with crime and crime biography, I am sorry that at the time of creating this article, I got only information related to this politician and his election, however if  Apart from the elections, I would have been very happy if I had got information about his personal life or other works done by him. I have not included any fake or unreliable information or sources in the article, and this subjects is not a part of the Crime and Crime related WikiProject banners.  I have changed it because it was just an accidental mistake, which I have fixed :)   αvírαm  | (tαlk) 07:10, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
 * @Aviram7: Thanks for that. In the future, when you add WikiProject banners to article talk pages, please check the scope of each WikiProject and the relevant project's instructions for adding banners. Choose only the most relevant banner(s). Avoid copying banners from another talk page as those banners might not be applicable. You want an article to be assessed, you should only include the WikiProject name without any banner attributes. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 05:36, 19 January 2024 (UTC)

Currently incumbent
Saying a politician is "currently incumbent" is a form of tautology and is redundant language and a writing style issue. It is also not precise language. Additionally, the word "currently" is one of the words to watch, as it may date quickly. Also, the word "incumbent" carries with it the implication that the person concerned is the latest office-holder up until a particular event. A person can also be identified as the incumbent at the point of re-election and might even be called the incumbent in election result, even if they lose an election. Without a reference event, usually the last election, this wording can also date quickly. Its use is redundant if reference is made to someone as holding office since a particular election, because this implies they are the incumbent or current office-holder. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 06:20, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
