Talk:Ravi Desai

Neutrality
This article is not exactly written in an encyclopedic manner. The controversies are fine to add in the article, but a bio article should not be 100% about those controversies. The lead is particularly troublesome. Pyrrho the Skeptic (talk) 22:58, 21 October 2021 (UTC)

It wasn't encyclopedic, but there was no additional information to be found on the subject, not even from the subject himself. The information was sourced and seemed notable enough for inclusion, even if the language might have needed work. But to have the entire article wiped by an anonymous user whose IP address has only been used for editing this one article (and geo-ip locates to a town near Montville, New Jersey), and have it replaced with meaningless biographical details whose sources do not back the statements made—that's vandalism.

It really seems that there is a lot of puffery in the article, and Desai's alleged controversies were removed for no good reason. I readded the one I could still find a source for. 2601:205:8300:D50:6130:7D2F:F656:F6A2 (talk) 04:55, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

Separate people
The business man Ravi Desai from NJ is a separate person from the Ravi Desai in this controversy around BMW. These are two separate people and having a scandal from 2002 can be harmful to ones reputation. Wiki should allow the controversy from that other individual to be taken out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.117.100.140 (talk) 06:36, 25 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Citation 2 "Desai acquires 5.15%stake" gives the NJ businessman's name as Ravi R. Desai; the Slate article "Who duped Slate?" gives the BMW chap's name as Ravi Gunvant Desai. These do seem to be different people. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 07:13, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
