![]() | This article was nominated for deletion on February 18, 2013. The result of the discussion was delete. |
Unencyclopedic tone and edit warring
On 20th April, I updated the main article to include a criminal charge of terrorism (cited in the references). This was deleted, while bizarrely leaving 'under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act' citation hanging. Is this wrong? Explain, please.
Moreover, I updated the article as per standard for charged but not convicted religious fundamentalist terrorists (see Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and others). This is done under the purview of the living subject biography policy, in which I identified the individual as a Hindu fundamentalist politician and accused militant. This is undeniably true- as per the citations that existed prior to my edits to this page. I expect User:Samsara to explain why this edit was reversed as well- I understand there was a flurry of edit-warring activity by unverified IP addresses, some on mobile after my last edit, but reversing that to a poorly-written unencylopedic entry was sub-optimal.
I understand the subject of this article was nominated to run as a major-party candidate for a seat in the Lok Sabha in the upcoming elections. Stating that this choice inspired widespread outrage is well-attested, verifiable, and not meriting unexplained deletion. The person in question is also not a religious leader- she is a self-proclaimed religious leader in the same way an accused Islamist militant would not be regarded as a 'spiritual leader' regardless of claims to the contrary. That's just not done, and I am deeply disappointed, for the umpteenth time, attempting to regulate content on right-wing Hindu nationalist politicians and ideas on Wikipedia. Embarrassing.

- WP:BLP - in short, serious accusations must be sourced to multiple reliable sources. Samsara 07:28, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
No 'serious accusations' made. She has been accused of terrorism- this is a matter of PUBLIC RECORD. Given the political sensitivity of the subject, it seems that someone may just have a political bias aimed at preventing people from accessing accurate information about a candidate for public office. Still embarrassing. Club-sandwich (talk) 08:29, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
Poorly written gibberish
Found this on this current major party Lok Sabha candidate's Wikipedia page, lacking an encyclopedic tone or grammar of any kind. Please revise and fix as you will!
