NPOV Issues (January 2024)

[edit]

I have added the Template:POV banner to this article. The sources appear to me to be uniformly predominantly Indian/Hindu/Kashmiri Hindu. I have found a source which appears reliable and causes me to question the neutrality of this article further: Hussain, Shahla (2021). Kashmir in the Aftermath of Partition. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. doi:10.1017/9781108780995. ISBN 978-1-108-49046-7. See especially starting page 303, including discussions about violence against Muslims, more neutral discussion of issues around temples/mosques, and intergroup violence.

I want to clarify, there is at least one source which I think may not be Indian/Hindu/Kashmiri Hindu, the AP article [1], although it does not support many of the statements made here, and is a contemporary news source and so is not the best source either. I have edited my initial comment. BananaCarrot152 (talk) 19:22, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect?

[edit]

I am not seeing substantive coverage of this topic in any solid sources. The three sources in the article that discuss this event at all are Aiyar, Pandit, and Tikoo; of these, Aiyar is contesting the narrative presented here, and the other two are from marginal publishers. Furthermore, there isn't much substance to any of them; all of the content could be covered at Timeline of the Kashmir conflict. Vanamonde93 (talk) 03:53, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
