Everything does not require verification. Vinayak9192 (talk) 23:14, 30 June 2018 (UTC)


 * , you are under wrong impression, It appears you don't understand the guidelines i posted in previous comment, EVERYTHING MUST BE SOURCED AND VERIFIABLE ON WIKIPEDIA, This is a basic principle otherwise everybody will start glorifying their cities with unsourced claims... this is not how Wikipedia works... you are free to write your own original thoughts and research on a personal blog, but not on Wikipedia.. thank you.. --Adamstraw99 (talk) 23:22, 30 June 2018 (UTC)


 * Adamstraw99, I have read all that which matters with principals. I have reviewed the changes people have made and hence I thought to ping you. This is a short change and sources are available but not with quick effect so don't go with wrong assumption. Sources will be attached soon. No people are going to glorify cities like you think. I am a resident of the concern city and that's what I use to make changes based on current affairs. I think this talk should not be longer anymore.

Thanks. Vinayak9192 (talk) 23:32, 30 June 2018 (UTC)


 * , your statement that "I am a resident of the concern city and that's what I use to make changes based on current affairs" indicates that you have either did not read or unable to understand the guidelines listed at WP:NOR and WP:NOTTRUTH which clearly states that " "the threshold for inclusion is verifiability, not truth" and "Any material added to Wikipedia must have been published previously by a reliable source. Editors may not add content solely because they believe it is true, nor delete content they believe to be untrue, unless they have verified beforehand with a reliable source." If you are not able to read and understand the basic things then you should stop editing Wikipedia because as per WP:INCOMPETENT, some level of Competence is required here and based on your statements and incapability to understand basic guidelines it appears you are lacking it... Please understand basic things and unless you have some queries on policies, you are not welcome on my talk page with statements like "I Am resident so i know everything" .. I have seen more aggressive agenda warriors than you...thank you. --Adamstraw99 (talk) 07:01, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

Naveen Bawa
I understand your frustration at Naveen Bawa with the author immediately removing a valid PROD template. However, the guidance does say :

" Any editor (including the article's creator or the file's uploader) may object to the deletion by simply removing the tag; this action permanently cancels the proposed deletion via PROD. "

However I have now tagged it for AfD here where you may or may not wish to comment. In the meantime, it might be prudent to remove the warning given to Helpful14 as it does seem inconsistent with the guidance. Regards  Velella  Velella Talk 13:38, 26 August 2018 (UTC)

Please
explain the grounds on the basis of which Altnews.in is not a RS.I'm ambivalent about Wire but will seek a clarification. &#x222F; WBG converse 16:22, 2 September 2018 (UTC)


 * , Scroll, opindia, thewire, the print, postcardnews and altnews should not be considered reliable sources as all of them have either pro or anti-government biases. Altnews is a private company managed by a team of people who claim to verify news by in-house Technics and methodology... I find this questionable..moreover the neutrality of Altnews founder has been questioned for biases, , [ Thanks --Adamstraw99 (talk) 16:52, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
 * , Sorry I do not find much/any pro-government bias in Altnews.in. It has been attributed to several times by reputed media-units, (as to fact-checking and the broader theme of fake news) and barring Arnab, I have not seen any criticism from mainstream-journalism.If you wish to debate this, either approach WP:RSN or noticeboard for India-related topics.best, &#x222F; WBG converse 17:00, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
 * , isn't this questionable? -->> [, --[[User:Adamstraw99|Adamstraw99]] (talk) 17:04, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
 * As to opindia.com, I did not see a single point where they have debunked Prateek's debunking.At any case, the editorial utilisises selective filtering of Prateek's editorial comments.For one, I can easily bring several examples of debunked fake-news from right-wing-folks at AltNews, where he was quite mild.Also, opindia is self-described-ly biased.
 * As to the other one, anything that paints The Hindu, TOI et al to be all biased and anti-Modi, is worth not a meaningful expenditure of my time.
 * Overall, Prateek might not have much/any affection for BJP & it's associates and probably is center-left but given that his outlet has been heavily mentioned and relied upon by multiple mainstream media, it's clearly a RS, for our purpose. &#x222F; WBG converse 17:28, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

Saw the thread and decided to jump in. Alt news can be considered a reliable secondary / tertiary source per wiki standards. They provide accurate sources for their work as is expected from a reliable media and already widely cited enough. As to allegations of Anti government Bias, that is an unproven and hard to prove comment. Cherry picking news items does not prove any BIAS.

As For the OPINDIA, the lesser be talked about the better, It is run by RAHUL RAJ and is an RSS BJP mouthpiece and propaganda page. using a propaganda op-ed site to claim BIASNESS of a news site looks bizarre to me. If any of you wants to goto RSN you can but what I said above will be the outcome of it. Good luck. -- D Big X ray ᗙ  22:01, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

 * ,, I Am considering to take this case to RSN, Before that, if could any of you please tell me about "multiple mainstream media" mentioning Altnews as reliable source then I will appreciate it and can then analyze the situation with better perspective... Thanks --Adamstraw99 (talk) 11:15, 3 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I am not sure where this argument arises from but here are my 2 cents. This has been discussed in the past on one of the talk pages. As far as I see it, currently we are arguing over the validity of these sources based on our perceptions/personal likes and dislikes. The list of sources which can be considered in the gray area is considerable and we need some common reliable metric to evaluate them. Sometime ago I came across [a media fact check website]. AFAIK, it seems to be independently funded and has correctly represented the position of many such sources. For example, Scroll, The Wire , First Post is mentioned to be usually factual but with a left-center bias. Similarly, Swarjaya  is stated to be another factual source but with right-center bias. However, other news websites like OpIndia, Altnews, PostCard.news, Caravan Magazine, Tehkla find no mention on this website and there might be good reasons for it. In my mind, there is a distinction between Scroll, The Wire, First Post, Swarjaya on one side and OpIndia, Altnews, PostCard.news, etc on the other. This distinction is primarily in the form of editorial overview which the first set of sources have and from established journalists. It is unclear if the second set of sources have the same overview apart from the commitments they state on their websites (both Rahul Raj and Pratik Sinha are not primarily journalists). However, their factual reporting which is stated as High (for the first set) is just one aspect of this issue. The other issue is that even if we just consider the first set of sources, there is the issue of bias which is problematic from the point of view that it can alter the way some factual information is presented. The website I refer to here makes mention of this and thus cautions one to be careful while referring to such sources. In comparison, if we take Times Of India , Indian Express ,  is placed as factual and minimal amount of bias. IMO, the use of sources which seem to have left/right bias should be used with care in criticism/controversial sections of articles and is best avoided. But this discussion is much bigger than this and a more detailed evaluation at WP:RSN is required. I think we must look at all such sources with care at the WP:RSN discussion and measure them with the same yardstick rather than personal perceptions/like/dislikes. If others have similar "independent" metrics which place describes each of these sources then it would be great. Here, I would request that we need to look at fact-checkers as metrics not mere mention of one in other mainstream sources. (things are more complicated then they appear. For example, OpIndia was acquired by Swarjaya but is treated as a separate entity. Similarly, Scroll/TheWire at times pickup news from lesser known websites or each other and run with them but it is unclear if they ever verified their sources and in the past have had to retract them but give this illusion of multiple sources stating the same thing)  Adamgerber80 (talk) 18:44, 3 September 2018 (UTC)


 * , Thanks for your valuable inputs... I think all these websites have some issues to be treated as RS -->>> Scroll, opindia, thewire, thequint, the print, DailyO, postcardnews, rightlog, nationalherald and altnews etc. I think none of them should be considered reliable sources as all of them have either pro or anti-government biases. My other concern is -->> They are not mainstream media, All of them are web based news sites with the main news consumers limited to internet users and more specifically social media users.-- Adamstraw99 (talk) 19:15, 3 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Guys, I have a problem with using the phrase "All of them" Due to the phrase गेहूं के साथ साथ घुन भी पिसता है. Lets not use that phrase and generalize sources. I agree with several points raised by Burger and disagree with more.
 * Alt News : Burger is right when he says, AltNews are not journalists. I am not dead supporter of Altnews. I am happy if someone replaces altnews with another better source, simply because their data points are verifiable and plenty other sources saying the same exists. AFAIK and whatever articles of AltNews I have read, Their sources are properly referenced. Yet to find 1 single article that is fake or data incorrect. As long as AltNews is used to back up a data fact, I am ok with using it as a reliable source. (because that particular fact is already verifiable, and can also be attributed to primary sources). Alt news articles also contain some commentary on the facts, and obviously that commentary should not be used in the articles.
 * Op India, is heavily biased propaganda site owned by RSS-BJP using fake datapoints and are an absolute NO NO in wiki articles. this has been exposed many times. a "propaganda site" is not reliable. period.
 * The Wire is a reliable journalistic news website. Their explosive articles have been challenged in courts and they stayed with their data points, and the courts agreed with their claims that their facts were not made up and based on documentary evidence.
 * I am not so sure about scroll or others. I would best not comment on them. The above is an overview. Now if there is any specific controversial piece of data, that is disputed between these sources. we should probably look at it at its own merits. If there is a piece of commentary in any of these sources, None of it should be added in the wiki article.-- D Big X ray ᗙ  20:10, 3 September 2018 (UTC)

honestly tell all you experienced editors that current political situation in India is politically very hateful and things are going to get only worse until April-May 2019 for obvious reasons you know :-) ... So, I Am very disturbed to see use of these websites as reliable sources because IMHO they are giving space for POV Pushing, which I Am committed to counter at any cost - As its my primary objective to this Wikipedia space in online world.. I Really do not know what to do next... I Am so helpless :-( ... help and advice seeking ping to .. Thanks -- Adamstraw99 (talk) 19:15, 3 September 2018 (UTC)
 * No, AFAIK wikipedia is not having elections. if someone wants to make an article a right vs left battle ground they would do so at their own peril. Obviously someone getting into a dispute on the basis of a propaganda site or a commentary from any of the above sites will have to eat the humble pie.

 * I'm too busy right now to contest your reversing of my edits. But remember that it isn't over yet. I'm not pushing a political agenda. The use of stock fictional characters to mock anybody in real life, if well-documented in news stories, is not against Wikipedia policies. For example, Hillary Clinton's use of "deplorable" to criticize Trump supporters. I think it's been covered on Wikipedia in the page, "deplorable". I think there are plenty of other examples. As long as the subject has gained notoriety or popularity, they can be included in Wikipedia in a "third person reporting style". Why treat Indian political affairs with strict rules, and give a pass to Trump-Hillary? That's double standards. I will pile more evidence for my edits very soon. Lastly I'm as apolitical as it gets. But I'm terribly annoyed by ignorance and assumptions on this topic. As if you're a know it all, and I don't matter here as much as you do. Please let some air in. Tech editor007 (talk) 18:22, 12 October 2018 (UTC)

On second thoughts, I did a check of the entry, "Deplorable Word" and Hillary-Trump's name hasn't been mentioned there.

Hiya Adam, I have been watching this page for a while and found that you had previously removed content referencing OR and NPOV. Well, the event is relevant to the page and given the sources provided in this edit it is neither an original research nor undue for the article. It is within the realm of Wikipedia policies to have a proportionate section about controversies and political movement that complies with WP:UNDUE. I see that you had previously undid that edit which I now reverted as good faith [BOLD], given the relevance and significance, I have now re-edited the section to be less promotional and make it comply with our encyclopaedic customs.

 * Rightlog.in -- Non-RS for all practical purposes.
 * Post-card News -- Non-RS for all practical purposes.
 * DailyO.in -- Non-RS for all practical purposes.
 * Scroll.in -- Non-RS for all practical purposes.
 * Republic TV and TimesNow -- Maintain WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV and avoid sourcing assertions from them in domains of politics et al.
 * National Herald -- Maintain WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV and avoid sourcing assertions from them in domains of politics et al.
 * The Wire -- Reliable but use broad discretion, for this's fair close to the margins. Maintain WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV (if you use it, at all) for any assertion in any controversial area. Distinguishing between op-eds and objective-reporting is not done, which further messes it up.
 * The Print -- Avoid Op-eds (which are clearly distinguishable); otherwise fairly decent RS. Still, use some amount of common sense and discretion.
 * The Quint -- No conclusion. &#x222F; WBG converse 13:58, 10 March 2019 (UTC)

Reconsideration for RSN consensus-gathering
Hello, there! I'm a WP:JAGUAR and Thanks to the arguably high-profile discussion around the blog( randomly attributed as “satire” in Google® News) OpIndia® and its erstwhile-parent for long-enough period magazine®, both of which are now WP:DEPS. I see that you triggered a dialogue about innumerable Indian news and/or current-affairs digital outlets by advocating for them to blacklisted — en masse . I wonder whether you would be interested to reignite that conversation, this time — methodically? As already said, I also witnessed multiple users on other discussions giving some interesting takes on other discussions such as the TOI®, Outlook® India, as well. Going as far as like, upto 3 years — at max. I invite "Brihaspati", "DreamLinker", "@IndianHistoryEnthusiast", Mr Jaydayal, "@Pharaoh of the Wizards" &, Mr "Shashank5988" &, Mr "@Shubham2019" — what say? In the ongoing global situation, there's no better gifted-opportunity to resolve this dispute once and for all — if unfortunately, not in perpetuity. —Mohd.maaz864 (talk) 05:30, 9 July 2020 (UTC) Edit Note: Fixed the typo in the username of '@PotW'. —Mohd.maaz864 (talk) 05:35, 9 July 2020 (UTC) Edit Note #2: Fixed the ping-markup to first editor. —Mohd.maaz864 (talk) 22:49, 13 July 2020 (UTC) UPDATE: Following thorough review of contributions by "Brihaspati" and Mr "@Shubham2019", I have come to the conclusion that they still have quite a lot to learn about[ English] Wikipedia®'s guidelines and policies, if not the essayed "advices". Henceforth, I'm rescinding the invitation and have updated the original-message accordingly. However.. In lieu, I invite Mr Harshil, Mr Karan (Theintuitus) & Mr "Kautilya3" to this panel. Regards. –Mohd.maaz864 (talk) 16:18, 15 July 2020 (UTC) Edit Note: Shit! Fffuuuuuucccck...! Didn't knew "Harshil" was just-another WP:SOCK BUT who deployed their sockery in admittedly ingenious, quite the 'pop Interweb'-esque( "social media"*) way.( He got his username changed to "Brihaspati" for not-so-explicable factors by early March, 2020.**) And hence, the updated-invitation stands revoked since the posting of this re-update. Ahh... Now that makes it( the count of panelists) even, to the original. ** Vide rev ID 943911860. —Mohd.maaz864 (talk) 16:53, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
