 * this was not advertising or promotional as the gentleman was an advisor and there are a few third party owned websites stating the same consistently. do we need to reference all of them so that the sentence can be included back ? kindly advice Vandemantaram (talk) 16:31, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
 * The sentence you have added is unsourced, POV and is a puffery statement. Please go thru the links above to get an understanding of what Wikipedia is and how it is built. Thank you! — DaxServer (t · m · c) 12:23, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Dear DaxServer, can I quote the following sources from below websites and use their same wordings as-is in Wiki page:
 * https://www.thehumancapital.dev/anil-chintapalli/
 * https://solidrockgroup.com/solid-rock-asset-management/
 * https://www.gbv.fund
 * https://www.reedland.com/strategic-advisor/
 * https://wpfoods.in/team-members/anil-chintapalli-2/
 * All these websites, state the following fact consistently:
 * From 2014-2019, he served as the senior economic advisor to State Government of Andhra Pradesh, India (FY 21-22 GDP of ~$150 Billion USD) – during his tenure, State’s GDP grew from $65 Billion (FY 2014) to $124 Billion (FY 2019) and has been ranked by the World Bank as the best state as per the ease of doing business index.
 * Kindly assist in stating this without sounding like puffery, advertisement, POV.
 * Maybe, something like this:
 * From 2014-2019, State’s GDP grew from $65 Billion (FY 2014) to $124 Billion (FY 2019) and has been ranked by the World Bank as among the best states as per the ease of doing business index - aided by senior economic advisors such as Anil Chintapalli.
 * I do not want to waste your time and so any online statement from you would be much appreciated.
 * Thank you very much. Vandemantaram (talk) 16:29, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi. I saw your email, but keep forgetting to reply.
 * The links you provided are not reliable sources but just some advertisements about him. They cannot be used on Wikipedia. See Reliable sources — DaxServer (t · m · c) 18:04, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the insight. To help me ascertain the reliability of this information, I was provided a soft copy of Govt of Andhra Pradesh's formal appointment letter (pdf) of this gentleman in the stated capacity of senior economic advisor. While it was shared on a confidential basis (which I can email you a copy of after I request permission), will this suffice ? Vandemantaram (talk) 00:09, 6 February 2023 (UTC)
 * That wouldn't change a thing. The information needs to be discussed in reliable sources in the sense that he is responsible for the growth. An example of reliable sources are newspapers like The Hindu, Deccan Chronicle, etc. After finding those sources, one need to see how much due weight it carries before adding the info to any article. See WP:DUE — DaxServer (t · m · c) 10:22, 6 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you - Let me clarify what I'm stating. What I'm stating for inclusion is as follows:
 * He was appointed as senior economic advisor (2014-2019) on matters related to investments from the United States of America and other nations for all round development of Andhra Pradesh State. His responsibilities included:
 * 1. Identify, organize, and facilitate commercially viable investment projects from reputed overseas investors and enterprises in State of Andhra Pradesh.
 * 11. Assist the Government in formulating relevant economic policies that would facilitate investments from overseas investors and overseas enterprises.
 * 111. Assist Government of Andhra Pradesh in raising capital through different instruments and structures cost-effectively to enable the Government to fund critical Government projects such as but not limited to building the new Capital city of Amaravati.
 * The above is strictly based on official (signed and executed) letter provided by State Government and content has been used verbatim. Media (newspapers esp in our country - India - are not reliable as they are politically owned or influenced). My suggestion is so that Wiki does not go by media articles to cite validity but look for formal executed documents to validate.
 * Please let me know. Vandemantaram (talk) 15:08, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Sorry, that's not how Wikipedia works. We rely on reliable secondary sources. Newspapers are one of them. Some newspapers are very reliable and some are not. You can read more at Reliable sources/Perennial sources
 * P.S. You don't have to send an email for every reply — DaxServer (t · m · c) 15:19, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
