Take part in discussion
[edit]I noticed that, you recently undo my edit in List of million-plus urban agglomerations in India.
I added a discussion regarding the reliability of the source cited in the article which has discrepancy in population and area data. Kindly go through it.
With regards, MVDR Enthusiast (talk) 06:09, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
- @MVDR Enthusiast While it is appreciated that you had started a conversation, it has nothing to do with your edit on the page. You had removed information for a specific city from a list which was properly sourced. This was undue and unwarranted. Meanwhile, let the discussion evolve and please refrain from making non-constructive edits to the page without consensus. Thanks! Magentic Manifestations (talk) 12:56, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
- I aware of it, that's why I didn't edit the page further, while I have opened discussion. At the same time, I sure about data of Tiruchirapalli, that is the reason to remove the particular city, meanwhile, I not aware about other cities. Anyways, seeking for constructive discussion for the better result. Thanks! MVDR Enthusiast (talk) 16:20, 16 September 2024 (UTC)

DCWC closing update
[edit]The 2024 Developing Countries WikiContest has come to a close! After a thrilling finish to the event with a slew of submissions on the final day, we have our winners. With 608 points, 
Thebiguglyalien (submissions) comes in third with his series of Kiribati and Botswanan submissions; 
BeanieFan11 (submissions) flies into second place at the last second with 771 points after a string of good articles about sportspersons; and after leading for much of contest's three months, 
Generalissima (submissions) finishes with a whopping 798 points to take home the Gold Belt Buckle. Congratulations to our winners!
In addition to his spot in the top three, BeanieFan11 (submissions) also wins the special awards for submitting under the most countries (44 countries) and for writing the most articles about women (15 Did you know? nominations)! 
Magentic Manifestations (submissions), after making 16 submissions under the Indian flag—15 of them good articles—receives the awards for most submissions for a single country and most featured or good articles promoted. For their submission of one FAC review, five FLC reviews, and 20 GAN reviews, Simongraham (submissions) wins for most article reviews.
The results of the contest have far exceeded any expectations the coordinators had for it at the beginning: among the submissions to the event were 3 FAs, 10 FLs, 88 GAs, dozens of article reviews of every kind, and more Did you know? submissions than we can count! Regardless of your level of participation, every contestant can be proud to have contributed towards a major step in countering the systemic bias on Wikipedia. Every year, millions of readers and editors around the globe use Wikipedia to educate themselves and communicate with others about parts of the world that often receive less attention than they deserve. Thank you for participating with us in the contest and contributing to this effort. The DCWC will return next year and we look forward to seeing you contribute again! However, before that...
We need your feedback! Join the conversation on the talk page to discuss your reflections on the contest (even if you didn't participate!) and help us make it better.

[edit]I saw this on my talk page, "Magentic Manifestations (submissions), after making 16 submissions under the Indian flag—15 of them good articles—receives the awards for most submissions for a single country and most featured or good articles promoted."
Great work on the submissions. Would you be interested in improving Tamil culture? LeónGonsalvesofGoa (talk) 03:30, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
- @LeónGonsalvesofGoa Appreciate your candor. Thanks!
- Regarding the article Tamil culture, as you could have seen during the GAR, there is quite a lot of differences of opinion with some of the other editors. In my experience, articles such as this often end up in repeated discussion loops and take a lot of time if indeed it makes it to GA. Magentic Manifestations (talk) 09:39, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

NLC Dolly Gunj Solar Power Plant
[edit]Hi Magentic Manifestations, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my appreciation for the good-faith revert you made on the Andaman and Nicobar Islands page with respect to NLC Dolly Gunj Solar Power Plant, which were added by me after the merger discussion. Unfortunately, I didn’t include this in the edit summary, which may not have given you the full context. My apologies for any confusion this may have caused. Your role in the editing process is crucial, and I would greatly appreciate if you would consider revisiting your edit if you would be open to it? Charlie (talk) 17:25, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- @CharlieMehta Appreciate you reaching out. While I can see that the article was deleted after a due discussion, deletion is altogether different from a merger. A deletion of the article does not mean an as-is copy-paste to the relevant parent article. I have not done a good faith revert but have rather re-phrased it into a single sentence which captures the requisite information related to the context of the overall article. I am not sure what exactly is your concern here. Would be great if you can elaborate. Cheers! Magentic Manifestations (talk) 17:35, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- I have just carefully read the sentence, 'Commissioned in June 2020, a 10 MW photovoltaic power station is operated by NLC India in Port Blair.' I apologize once again for any confusion caused. I really appreciate your patience and kindness in clarifying this for me. Charlie (talk) 17:49, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

Factually incorrect claims
[edit]I'm not sure if you're misunderstanding or deliberately adding incorrect information. Indian Railways is NOT a statutory body (where’s the source for that?) or a railway company (source?). Such claims are purely WP:OR, factually incorrect, and contradict existing sources. This article cited for this claim explicitly states that "Railways are a department" and suggests it should be registered as a "section 25 company under the Indian Companies Act or a statutory corporation by an act of Parliament", which means it is currently neither a company nor a statutory body, but they urge it should be made one. Understand the difference? On the other hand, Railway Board is a statutory body established as per the Act of the Parliament (1905), which is also structured as a de facto company, that's why its top official is called a CEO. The IR formation date in your infobox is also incorrect, which I had corrected per the officially recognized date. There is no “superior” or “inferior” infobox, only the appropriate one. 117.230.85.195 (talk) 15:58, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
- My points below:
- a. Company vs. Department: Basically IR is a company which provides railway and allied services. For one, It is as such mentioned in the Government source 1, as a railway company under the purview of the Ministry of Railways. So, if it is used by a Government source, it is rather right and not an original research to use the term rather than a TOI/ET article which is not a reliable source (See WP:TOI). This modification from a statutory body to a railway company was part of my last edit. If you had paid attention to it, rather than doing a wholesale non-constructive and blind revert, you would have got that. As large state-owned enterprises such as post, railways etc. are organized as departmental undertakings, I had modified the statement to be clearer and unambiguous with a note stating that it is one of the three ways public sector companies are organized in India (departmental undertaking, statutory body, and public company). This should solve the conundrum.
- b. Infobox changes:
- While as such there is no inferior/superior infobox with respect to the infobox itself, the earlier infobox captured much more information, which you conveniently removed in the name of changing the infobox. This was unwarranted, is not constructive, and serves no purpose. Technically, a government agency is different from a department, so I do not see a rationale to change it.
- Do agree that the rail transport began in 1837, and IR is considered to have been established in 1853, when the first passenger train ran. The corresponding edits have been made, with the appropriate source.
- You had changed the employee count without giving a updated source. You can make the change if you have an updated source for backing it up.
- d. Railway board: The Railway board consists of only five members, which is explicitly and clearly mentioned from the press release by the Government on the reconstitution of the railway board 2. I am certainly not against the mention of the chairman as the CEO, as it is mentioned in the infobox as such already. There are four additional DGs, who are on special duty, and I have made corresponding edits to be more clearer on the same. The chairman can have "n" people reporting to him and that does not mean that all are members of the board. So, it seems that you are the one doing WP:OR here.
- Hope I have been pretty clear with the points. While I appreciate the corrections/updates that came out of it such as the DOE and the expansion of the railway board, the other changes were non-constructive, and not backed by sources. It could have been better if you had engaged in a discussion before changing the status quo, rather than doing a wholesale revert and discussing later. I would also suggest creating an account, as the changes and comments are made from different IP addresses and not sure whether you are doing it, or multiple people are involved. Would be happy to discuss in case you have further queries. Thanks! M2 (talk) 06:34, 5 December 2024 (UTC)
Clarification on Removal of Al Jazeera Citation
[edit]Hi Magentic Manifestations, I noticed that you removed the Al Jazeera citation I added to the Gukesh Dommaraju article, supporting the statement: "He earned the title of grandmaster at the age of 12 and remains the third-youngest grandmaster in the history of chess."
The Al Jazeera article explicitly states: "By the age of 12, Gukesh had become a grandmaster – the highest title a chess player can attain – making him the third-youngest grandmaster in history and the youngest one from India.source link
Since the source directly supports the claim and Al Jazeera is generally regarded as a reliable source on Wikipedia, I believe it was a valid reference. Could you clarify the reason for its removal? If there are specific concerns, I’d be happy to discuss or find a resolution.
