Gross diatribe, fork of 1984 anti-Sikh riots. Soman (talk) 12:19, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

• Comment, was this a re-creation of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Third Sikh Holocaust 1984? --Soman (talk) 12:22, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

• Comment. Not quite; that one was a bit more coherent than this, and the texts are not the same. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 14:34, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

• Delete. An opinionated screed, a content fork, and the title is meaningless in English. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 14:34, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. Unsalvageable POV fork. Salih (talk) 16:00, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
• Retain Useful information. 209.251.200.243 (talk) 20:32, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
• Strong Keep - Notable. Also it is NOT a fork of 1984 anti-Sikh riots, It appears that some editor has reffered to 1984 Sikh riots only. 3rd Sikh ghallooghaaraa is a very big term used for massacre in Punjab - close to 1000 Google hits.--DawnOfTheBlood (talk) 08:06, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

• A bad faith tag added by User talk:Salih to discredit Keep/Retain Votes as he has cast 'Delete' vote. Please see my pround multi-article editing history. I believe that respected User: Salih has discredited his own 'Delete' vote by openly lying in an important Wikipedia discussion.--DawnOfTheBlood (talk) 00:34, 13 June 2010 (UTC)

Sorry DawnOfTheBlood to cast aspersions on your credibility as an editor; it was a mistake on my part. But, I still stick to my delete !vote. Salih (talk) 06:18, 13 June 2010 (UTC)

• Move to a more easily understood title; the existing title is meaningless and hard to search for, for people not familiar with the culture.-- φ OnePt618^Talk φ 02:18, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

• I agree with you to later change the article 'title' to its english translation. It also mean we first need to keep it so that we could work on english translation of this title later. Thanks.--170.35.208.21 (talk) 16:16, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

• Delete as a clearly obvious POV outlet that is addressed in 1984 anti-Sikh riots. While it doesn't qualify for G4 on a technicality (it's not as "well written" as the other POV piece that was deleted at AfD), this nevertheless has to be deleted. —SpacemanSpiff 13:30, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

• Your own vote? - I Challenge - based on your own fundament, your own statement and vote might be POV vote.Please note, article indicates India murdered Sikhs and this respected editor is an Indian--DawnOfTheBlood (talk) 05:48, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
• POV outlet statement? - Wrong- POV is not a basis to delete an article, soultion is to contribute to wikipedia and make its articles valuable while following wikipedia policies. So you can contribute instead of suppressing the information.--DawnOfTheBlood (talk) 05:48, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
• Addressed in 1984 anti-Sikh riots? - Wrong - 1984 anti-Sikh riots happened in the month of November of year 1984 only, but this article deals with the information starting from June 1984, when Operation Blue Star happened and it covers the killings upto mid 1990s. In regards to the killings of the Sikhs between year 1984 to 1994, even supreme court of India called it worse than genocide, so we definitely need this article. --DawnOfTheBlood (talk) 05:48, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
• Not well written? - then help- Again its not a basis to get such an extremely important article deleted. Wikipedia welcomes its editors to help in improving its articles.--DawnOfTheBlood (talk) 05:48, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

• Keep-Highly Notable. wp:pov is not a basis to get an article deleted. Solution of wp:pov is to contribute to the article and make it truly neutral. So lets keep this highly notable article.--170.35.208.21 (talk) 16:12, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
• Comment about Move opinions: A valid article already exists, so moving this doesn't make any sense, there's nothing of value to merge either. —SpacemanSpiff 13:11, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

• I challenge- This article is not a fork of 1984 anti-Sikh riots, as 1984 anti-Sikh riots happened in the month of November of year 1984 only, but this article deals with the information starting from June 1984, when Operation Blue Star happened and it covers the killings upto mid 1990s. In regards to the killings of the Sikhs between year 1984 to 1994, even supreme court of India called it worse than genocide, so we definitely need this article.--DawnOfTheBlood (talk) 05:00, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
