Misc awards and Times of India

I'm inclined to remove these miscellaneous and non-notable awards per WP:NOT especially WP:NOTNEWS. Moreover, I don't think awards reported only by TOI are itself an indication; given that he has a column there, this makes them affiliated.

"Network 7 Jury as "Indian of the Year 2014" : Network 7 in not notable.
" was conferred Business Leader of the year 2012 " : By TOI
"Indian Affairs Impact Award for Homeopathy at the 6th Annual India Leadership Conclave 2015, an initiative of Satya Brahma." India Leadership Conclave dubious notability. By TOI
"wins Salute Mumbai Award" award not notable, by TOI
"Pride of India Award at the Indo Thai Economic Co-Operation seminar", same.

I'm removing them per WP:BURDEN. Ugog Nizdast (talk) 13:32, 1 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I've added back India Leadership Conclave since it passes the bare minimum requirements for notability. Ugog Nizdast (talk) 10:43, 14 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Indian scientists to alternative medicine practitioners

[moved from user talk to related wiki for the reason that interested wikimedians may discuss] Hello. I undid your change adding categories like Indian scientists to Mukesh Batra who is an homeopath. Doesn't that come under WP:FRINGE/PS? pseudosciences like homeopathy and alternative medicine cannot be treated as mainstream and adding such categories would be thus be a violation, wouldn't it? I notice you've done more such categorisation but haven't checked whether it's over such practitioner's biography pages. Better reevaluate those edits.

Hi don't agree as Padma Shri awarded individuals rather are to be categorised as mentioned, regardless of their fields which I personally did not assess on occasion of that tiny one-time categorisation task last night. BTW related to just a handful of wikis within Indian physicians... . Hence, pls restore by undoing. Other opinions by interested wikimedians? Roland zh (talk) 11:51, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Categorised as mentioned"? So since he is in the cat "Recipients of the Padma Shri in medicine", you're saying that we should thus consider him a scientist ie category Indian scientist? That's wrong. Also, what you're proposing then doesn't involve the article on Batra but on the broader concept of whether alternative practitioners awarded the Padma Shri shoud be called scientists--which goes against our stance against WP:FRINGE/PS and the article on homeopathy. Categories should match the article and are subject to verifiability too. Just because the Indian government categorised it as medicine, doesn't mean we follow it, scientific and particularly medicine-related articles are subject to WP:MEDRS.

I'm sorry, I didn't understand the rest of what you've posted. Ugog Nizdast (talk) 14:38, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
