Change of leader
Siddaramaiah is the present opposition leader in Karnataka, and hence his details need to be uploaded under the leader section. DK Shivakumar is presently the prisedent of the party, similarly where the president of JDS is not in leader's seat, but HD Kumaraswamy is present. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Souryadeep630 (talk • contribs) 09:57, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

Clearly biased section
"According to political analysts[who?], with Karnataka polls nearing, the political parties are raking up more and more social issues to keep its voters informed. This can been seen by choosing the communal tensions started by muslim radicals on hijab and interpreting it as burqa which met with such equal demands from right-wing Hindutva groups on hijab, halal, azan, boycott of Muslim-run shops. The congress has focused its campaign around communal issues and try to corner bjp, drawing stark criticism from the opposition Congress, which accused it of neglecting governance issues. While bjp leaders follow its agenda based on Modi magic. the leader, Annamalai given charge of BJP’s Karnataka Assembly poll campaign"
This edit by @Aroneasadas shows clear pro-BJP bias, as well as citing contradictory sources. RooinMahmood07 (talk) 07:21, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
- i already provided enough links. i can also accuse of you being anti India , pro terrorist. everyone do not have to follow your opinions and thoughts article was pro congress and anti India . i do not white wash any party if you read carefully you can understand that Aroneasadas (talk) 13:08, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

- @Dhruv edits: why Revert?13:37, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
- There are many political parties contesting the election. All of them cannot be added. As per WP:RS and opinion polls, there are only 3 major contenders in the state. Candidates of only those 3 parties will be added. Dhruv edits (talk) 18:55, 3 April 2023 (UTC)

- This is unnecessary. JD(S) candidates are already included in the article. Parties other that BJP, Congress and JDS are not major contenders as per WP:RS. Also these potential articles shouldn't be made since WP:SPLIT doesn't apply here. See WP:NOTEVERYTHING and WP:NOTDIRECTORY. Every possible information is not added to Wikipedia. Also see MOS:INDELECT for Indian election pages. Dhruv edits (talk) 14:08, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
- Not needed. Three major parties are there in Karnataka and rest are minor and are likely losing deposit in almost all constituencies. AAP and others is unimportant in Karnataka as of now and do not need to be added. Ok123l (talk) 11:26, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

Opinion polls
Why only 2 polls are listed? 103.89.235.181 (talk) 12:50, 4 April 2023 (UTC)

Melukote
Any particular reason we arent adding Melukote for INC and showing the party they are supporting? @Dhruv edits: — Preceding unsigned comment added by Repto79456 (talk • contribs)
- @Repto7945 There is no Congress candidate from that seat. Note has been added regarding support to another party. Explained in edit summary here Dhruv edits (talk) 13:14, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
- Noted thanks for the quick response! Repto79456 (talk) 09:57, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
Unreliable opinion polls
@Repto79456 Stop adding opinion polls that do not have sample size and error margin; these polls are not reliable per community consensus. See MOS:INDELECT. These polls have been removed multiple times with explanation in edit summary but you have added them again. Dhruv edits (talk) 09:57, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

- I would agree with the rules on the Jan Ki Baat opinion poll given that the sample size data was unavailable. However, the Zee News-Matrize poll had all the required details and it was sourced as well. Thank you! FlyJet777 (talk) 19:10, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
- @FlyJet777 There is no error % given in Zee poll, making it unreliable. It should be removed. Dhruv edits (talk) 20:21, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

- What? The only opinion poll I had added myself was the South First-People's Pulse on 13 April thats it. There was a 4th opinion poll added were added by AS Sayyad and Alone 333336, the only thing I had updated was the graph thats it, I have no relation adding these opinion polls in the table. And when I was going through the history I realised they wernt fit and was going to revert them later but it had already been done by then. Repto79456 (talk) 14:53, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

Key Battles Section deleted with bland reason
I have created a section, with c a table having constituencies of spotlighted contestants of Chief Minister, Former Chief Ministers, Children of leaders and other aspects, which includes individuals from all the parties. This has been abruptly deleted by Alone 333336, where atleast discussion is expected and a little respect to the editor's effort. Hence I request you to revisit your opinion once again. You can also call for a poll, for more opinions in this matter. Thanks! MicroNibble (talk) 16:36, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
- Hi @MicroNibble The table is based on original research and highly subjective with regard to what seats are key seats. It is also redundant since the same information is already included in the Candidates section. Also note that talk page discussions are based on consensus, not polling.

Wikipedia is B team of Congress party
Opinion polls done by TV9 kannada and Suvarna news is giving majority seats to BJP. But those are not allowed to update here. Wiki should be ashamed of this. They are favouring one particular party. They are not maintaining neutrality here. They should be ashamed of this. Shame on you Wiki!!!!122.172.87.88 (talk) 18:49, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
