POV

[edit]

This article is clearly written with the single goal of discrediting the tapes. It is full of hyperbole and editorialization and doesn't even provide the contents, much less a balanced discussion of the question of their validity and their meaning for Indian politics based on reliable academic sources of which there are plenty. Needs to be severely rewritten. ·ʍaunus·snunɐw· 17:05, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Rename to remove unnecessary disambiguation?

[edit]

Per WP:PRECISE, I'd like to rename this article from The Truth: Gujarat 2002 – Tehelka report to "The Truth: Gujarat 2002". (How many other works are there named "The Truth: Gujarat 2002"?) I'd appreciate feedback before making the change. Thanks! - Anirvan (talk) 19:50, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There needs to be some indication that this is an article, report, title, work of journalism, or whatever you want to call it. "The Truth: Gujarat 2002" is a title but as a stand alone, it's not quite POV, but gives that impression. I'm uncomfortable with such a change. Crtew (talk) 00:33, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with Crtew. Chaipau (talk) 11:05, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Crtew/Chaipau, thanks for your feedback, and I think I understand your concerns. However, WP:PRECISE still seems to apply. Take a look at Category:Indian_novels, for example. You'll see that most of the novels there don't have any parenthetical disambiguation. For example, it's the The Great Indian Novel, and not "The Great Indian Novel (novel)" — despite the possibility that someone might accidentally think that the article is about great Indian novels in general, rather than a work of that name. Do we know of precedents for overriding WP:PRECISE because a reader might potentially disagree with or misunderstand the title of a published work? - Anirvan (talk) 21:49, 29 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I'm renaming "The Truth: Gujarat 2002 – Tehelka report" to "The Truth: Gujarat 2002 (Tehelka report)"; I presume this is an uncontroversial change. -Anirvan (talk) 23:03, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Repeated lines reinstated. Why?

[edit]

In my edit i removed lines that were already written in the above para. My edit summary also stated "repeat of above para". What i removed was;

The CBI report concluded that "The recordings in the sting operation are found to be authentic as per Forensic Science Laboratory Report." and "Most of the concerned persons appearing in the sting operation have admitted that they were contacted and that they have talked on the subject of Gujarat Riots which has been recorded during the sting operation."[1]

What the above para says is;

In October 2009, the CBI responded to the NHRC by issuing a report stating that "No Evidence of editing, alteration and tempering has been detected in the audio video recordings and their respective voice track recorded in the DVDs" and that "[Forensic Science Laboratory staff] have stated that on the basis of the result of the examination of the exhibits by them, it is clear that the recordings in the Sting Operation are authentic." After interviewing the subjects of the videos, the CBI reported that "Most of the above mentioned persons have stated that they were approached by some person / persons and that they have talked on the subject of Gujarat Riots which is the subject matter of the sting operation."[1]

Does my edit makes sense to you Crtew or not? If it does, please revert your reversion of my edit. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 12:25, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You were right, I missed that. I redid you delete, too! Thanks, Crtew (talk) 12:31, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 12:35, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
