BJPs Verbal Attacks on Mamata Banerjee

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Inappropriate list of every negative comment the opposition party in a legislature has made in 2017 about the chief minister and her government -- and mostly they're trivial talking points like "make your stand clear", "we will defeat you in the next election" and "civil servants have lost their edge". This is par for the course in politics -- it's the opposition's job to criticize the government and keep them on their toes -- so there's no need to maintain a permanent list of such WP:TRIVIA, because things like these or worse are said in every legislature on earth every day. (I'll admit that calling her a hijra is a step beyond the norm — but not at all to the point that it would singlehandedly justify an indiscriminate list of everything anybody ever said about her.)

 * Delete, certainly. I do not see any sources covering this as a topic in a systematic manner; which just means this is some editor collecting negative comments from the news, and is thus completely inappropriate. I'd say this is a violation of SYNTH, NPOV, INDISCRIMINATE, NOTNEWS, and probably a few other things as well...Vanamonde (talk) 04:50, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. WP:NOTNEWS and WP:NPOV. Ajf773 (talk) 19:43, 8 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Also, the author be given welcome message with dos and donts for wikipedia. ChunnuBhai (talk) 06:03, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Trying to think what part of WP:NOT this falls under. Probably several. OR for starters, since there in all likelihood isn't a single reliable source detailing every verbal attack on a politician. Lacks neutrality against a prominent living person. Suffers from recentism, with a handful of incidents in the past month even though she has been in state government since 2011 (and the group in national government since 2014). In all, not a subject someone would search for in an encyclopedia. Mamata Banerjee would be the closest thing to a criticism section I'd expect for this BLP. Fuebaey (talk) 14:18, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete: per WP:NPOV and WP:OR. --Guy Macon (talk) 05:23, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
