What is your issue with the page? You have been reverted twice - see WP:EW. TrangaBellam (talk) 07:26, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
 * User:TrangaBellam No edit warring. The earlier editor had reverted the edits due redundancy. I have removed it. I want to maintain NPOV. The sentence at as it is now, seems like she is facing harassment for no reason. I want to highlight the reason behind the harassment too and give it due weight. User:Kautilya3, I would like to have your opinion too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Akshaypatill (talk • contribs)
 * The reason has been explained; harassment is acceptable to you? Joshua Jonathan  - Let's talk!  07:51, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
 * User:Joshua Jonathan, yes, the reason has been explained, but hasn't got its due weight. And I ain't supporting the harassment. What did make you think that? And also what is wrong in my proposed sentence? As explained below in the article, she has made claims using translation of a book which even the translator has called highly inappropriate. To maintain NPOV We need to incorporate this too. The current sentence project her as she hasn't done anything but still getting all the criticism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Akshaypatill (talk • contribs)
 * User:TrangaBellam What is your argument against my proposed sentence? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Akshaypatill (talk • contribs)
 * The reason behind the harassment is mentioned - prejudiced views on Hinduism, and making offensive statements. Lunatics of the Right are not accorded due weight in scholarship and by extension, Wikipedia. You will be at WP:AE if you persist. TrangaBellam (talk) 20:53, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

 * You removed all the edits? I haven't blatantly copied the whole content. I have tried summarising it. They are spanned over pages. Can you point to the content you find can violate copyrights? I will correct it.Akshaypatill (talk) 11:53, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I removed the descriptions of the eight positions on the Council of Eight Ministers, as they were almost identical to those found in this source.— Diannaa (talk) 11:59, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
 * But these are facts. You will find the same content in every source. How can it be rephrased?Akshaypatill (talk) 12:01, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Try instead adapting or copying from the list at Ashta Pradhan, which is compatibly licensed. (Make sure if you copy from there, you say so in your edit summary. Please see Copying within Wikipedia for more information.) Or you could re-write the content in your own words— Diannaa (talk) 12:07, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Will it be okay if I message you before I submit the new edit? for review?Akshaypatill (talk) 12:11, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
 * You can send it to me via email if you like. Why are you also posting at Talk:Shivaji? How about we hold the conversation in only one place? — Diannaa (talk) 12:59, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I had posted this message before the talk page message. Seems like you viewed this message after the talk page message. Thanks. :) Akshaypatill (talk) 13:03, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
