BLP1E

I'm worried we may have a WP:BLP1E here, and the event is rather negative. Dennis Brown (talk) 20:08, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Dennis Brown. Thanks for the feedback. Well, we may call it a WP:BLP1E, it is a point of view and can be different. This is not a small event and has initiated lots of issues in India, esp political system and business community. Magnitude of the problem is estimated to be in excess of $30 billion and Niira is the key to the entire thing. Without her, there would be no such controversy. Case is of importance like another WP:BLP1E Murder of Stephen Lawrence. Please consider. Thanks AKS (talk) 20:22, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Adding a list of clients is NOT appropriate here, period. Because she is living, any and all claims must be CAREFULLY SOURCED, or the claim will be deleted. Being a negative biography is treading on very thin ice for Wikipedia. Dennis Brown (talk) 20:27, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The issue is that Nira Radia is not the event. The event is the 2G spectrum scam and Radia's involvement is the Radia tapes controversy. This article was already deleted by the discussion here, and consensus was that Radia was not notable beyond this event. The article currently does not indicate her notability beyond this event. AKS, what rationale do you have for not merging this article into the Radia tapes article per WP:BLP1E? In the example you cite, there is no article for Stephen Lawrence, because his event is notable and he is not. This is the case with Radia, right?

I have redirected (again) to the Radia tapes controversy per the outcome of the AfD. Nothing new has been presented, if there's anything new then consensus needs to be gained on Talk:Radia tapes controversy before starting off with a new article. —SpacemanSpiff 05:44, 21 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
