The person has been given a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for one several times.

The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the historical record in his or her specific field. HistorianV (talk) 10:35, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

He holds a German Citizenship & Indian Constitution doesn't allow any Dual citizenship !!! Hence, Change his nationality to German instead.

He holds a German Citizenship & Indian Constitution doesn't allow any Dual citizenship !!! Hence, Change his nationality to German instead. Skalvanov (talk) 10:48, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Skalvanov: Already told you; There is no evidence or source supporting his acquisition of German citizenship. GrabUp - Talk 10:50, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

He has been in Germany for more than 11 years now !!! what logic are you applying?? Constitution of India doesn't allows dual citizenship moreover, the guy doesn't have any property in India his parents has also shifted to Germany only his kin resides in his native village now. Skalvanov (talk) 20:31, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Skalvanov Living in Germany doesn't make him German. Many people move to another country for their career, but does that change their nationality? M S Hassan 📬✍🏻 01:31, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Skalvanov, Rather than making fringe theories and original research, you have to provide references from reliable sources. Once those references are verified, the change can be updated in the article. Till then, such theories and unsourced facts shall not be entertained and will constitute as BLP violation. Thanks. — The Herald (Benison) (talk) 10:14, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Don't be pathetic!!! I've just started a Wiki discussion. Why are you so sensitive about it? Is He personally related to you or what? If you further keep on escalating this with me I'll report u for Online Cyber bullying. Skalvanov (talk) 12:11, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is a Wiki discussion, in which you have to follow Wikipedia guidelines and policies. Wikipedia is not a social media platform. You have to support your claims from reliable sources if you want them to be included in the article. Unsourced claims will not be entertained and they will constitute as BLP violation of Wikipedia policies. Furthermore, making legal threats is also aganist the policies. Thanks and happy editing. — Benison (Beni · talk) 12:58, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There's also elements of WP:BLPCRIME - unless this is widely reported and actually gets at least some legs, it probably should not be reported. Ravensfire (talk) 20:50, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Add about Dhirv Rathee and Karolina Goswami Controversy

Rathee publicly criticized Goswami for what he considered her biased and overly simplistic portrayal of India’s political landscape. He argued that her content was misleading and ignored the challenges faced by the country. Rathee’s supporters accused Goswami of promoting an idealized, one-sided narrative that favored the Modi government. In turn, Goswami defended her views, stating that Rathee's criticisms were unfair and that his content misrepresented the accomplishments of the Indian government. She also accused Rathee of being unpatriotic for his harsh critiques of the government, which she argued could harm India’s global image.

There is no such thing as a Dhirv Rathee and Karolina Goswami controversy. However, Karolina Goswami has accused Rathee of being unpatriotic due to his harsh critiques of the government, suggesting that such criticism could harm India’s global image, please be informed that entire right-wing supporters India share similar views. Besides if these accusations spark significant public debate or reactions, it could be classified as a controversy. However, if it's just a matter of differing political opinions, it may not reach the level of a true controversy. Additionally, the sources you have provided merely report the news or cover the content without offering deeper analysis or commentary. Hope this helps.-25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ^🍁 11:15, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
