Talk:Punjab Kings/Archive 1

Very few citations
May I remind people that wiki is for reporting information from other sources, not personal views.

Wiki should not give opinion but facts that are cited.

So you CAN say:

"So far the IPL season Kings XI Punjab have beaten Chennai Super Kings"

You cannot say it was a "thrilling match" because that's your opinion - unless you cite it and show the source you got it from. This article is littered with personal views. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.44.136.198 (talk) 09:58, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

Citation for name
Punjab kings is the official name-this statement needs to be verified from independent sources. Please add your reference, else the statement relating to the Punjab Kings name will be removed. Thank You.CSumit (talk) 17:06, 22 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I can't find any particular source for declaration of Mohali team, although Cricinfo, on its Squads page under Indian Premier League, uses the name "Punjab Kings". LeaveSleaves (talk) 02:37, 23 March 2008 (UTC)


 * This says that the team is going to be called Kings XI Punjab. So I guess we should wait for the official announcement before moving/renaming the article to avoid double effort. - Aksi_great (talk) 10:00, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

What?
I would like to know who moved this page. I had edited the squad for the team in the previous Punjab Kings page, but I dont find the changes being reflected here. Whoever moved the page should have merged the Punjab Kings and Mohali Twenty20 franchise pages before renaming. Now I'd have to redo the changes again. CSumit '  Talk '' 10:17, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Anon's edits
One anon who is known for his anti-Zinta-manic edits (he even once created a userpage called "Preityzintaisawhore") keeps changing the order of the names of Preity Zinta and Ness Waida. It would be fine by me if it was done just for a reason, and I don't really mind who gets top-billing, but his way to do that prompts me to prove him the opposite. He then started claiming it is because Wadia invested more money than Zinta. His claim is baseless and unsourced, while I have sources to prove the opposite.

First, of all the owners of the team, Zinta is the most involved one. She is the only one who is active with the team's promotion, who is interviewed by the press, and the sole co-owner who is involved with ticket sales, as well as other different activities such as cheering the players, participating in capaigns etc. If you take a look at articles about the team on the net, you'll see that Zinta is mentioned the most. Most of the articles discussing the team mention mostly Zinta, and only then do they mention the others (if they do so).

Make a google search to find out who is mostly identified with the team. You'll see how much hits everyone gets.

As for the anon's baseless claim that Wadia invested more than Zinta, I invite him to see such articles as this and this.

Also, most importantly, the official site of the IPL has Zinta's name mentioned first. And see the official site of the team itself. She again appears first. And BTW, it's also mentioned out there, "The Board of Directors jointly oversee activities of Kings XI Punjab headed by Chairperson, Preity Zinta".

So here you have it. Shahid •  Talk 2 me  15:11, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
