Notice

The article Tihawali has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced and unimproved almost 15 years. No reliable sources online Google news, newspapers, books, or scholar. Run of the mill, very small village. Not enough information to merge. Can redirect if necessary.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Hello all! I'm in the process of making some pretty extensive edits to this article (mostly removing portfolio-esque content copied from LinkedIn), but need some additional sources for verification. My searches in English are turning up very few results. Any help getting this off the ground would be appreciated - thanks! jellyfish  23:47, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Due to the excessively long name of this article, I think it should be moved back to DANICS (which is currently a redirect to Delhi, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Lakshadweep, Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu Administrative Service to DANICS) due to it being the most common name used by sources. I put this topic here instead of the main article due to how little traction it gets. Sangsangaplaz (Talk to me! I'm willing to help) 14:24, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The state of Indian media

[edit]

A thought-provoking interview of Rajdeep Sardesai [1]. I remember him being cocky about it a year or two ago. Now he sounds completely despondent. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 19:14, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, about 9 to 10 years ago, Indian media became deprecated. Bearian (talk) 15:50, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please see Wikipedia:ICTFSOURCES and User:Ms Sarah Welch/sandbox/Paid news and private treaties. Bearian (talk) 15:55, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Even on Wikipedia they are mostly unusable for establishing any form of notability, not to mention how most of them support the ruling party. - Ratnahastin (talk) 15:56, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This month, Caravan profiled News18 and it cannot be nearer to truth. The amount of ludicrous junk they have pushed on Sambhal Mosque boggles my mind. Probably, nothing except The Indian Express, The Hindu, and The Dainik Bhaskar are worth relying upon anymore. Upd Edit (talk) 17:58, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The freedom allowed for each media house has been circumscribed individually. Nobody is immune. Even we are not. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 10:32, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone please source this? I can’t find any information or references. Bearian (talk) 15:48, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Bearian seems it has some notability based on google news search. e.g. see this (uses "kanthalloor", but must be same as Kantallur). I can try to find better source(s). Asteramellus (talk) 15:57, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. Bearian (talk) 15:58, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oh seems there is a page for Kantalloor so now not sure if this "Kantallur" is a different village. But will try to look. Asteramellus (talk) 16:05, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This stub is a disaster. Please let’s fix it. Bearian (talk) 20:44, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was going to propose deleting it, but that was already rejected. The text and the title don’t match, but I’m unsure if it’s vandalized or an error. Can you please fix this? Bearian (talk) 01:30, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Seems there are many pages like this (e.g. see Bacharam) - maybe they are notable regionally (but I was not able to find many sources), and someone added them originally. Anumantharayan Kottai mentioned in the lead seems a different village! so must be a mistake. Also, seems city is spelled differently (Pithalaipatti) in google maps. And interestingly, google maps quick facts shows wiki's lead paragraph with the incorrect village name. Asteramellus (talk) 20:44, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Interesting! Can you fix it? Or send it to WP:AfD so we can start from scratch? Bearian (talk) 01:59, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I’m proposing to merge a hamlet and a school into this small community. Bearian (talk) 01:57, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
