BHU VC

The new VC has not taken charge yet. He visited university, went to temple, but didn't take charge. Rector Shukla is still in charge. The reference you gave, it too didn't say anything about taking charge. Also, Rector Shukla's name has been linked to the wiki page of a politician. If you'll please correct this.

Relation to BHU

I hope you don't mind, but with the amount of promotional material you are introducing to this article and it being only the only article you are editing, one must ask, are you related to the university in any way? --Muhandes (talk) 18:00, 18 December 2021 (UTC)

@Muhandes: One must reply, and ask to what does one owe an explanation? One must also ask what exactly is being attributed as 'promotional material', and if that is cleared it would easy for one to answer. One doesn't mind at all, since one assumes good faith, and expects all to. While one welcomes positive scrutiny and constructive criticism, one is reminded to remind of Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers Regards, User4edits (talk) 05:28, 19 December 2021 (UTC)
I apologize if I sounded harsh and condensending, let me try again. You are here for four years and seem to know your way around so I thought there is no need to treat you like a newcomer. Instead of slapping a {{COI}} and a {{Third-party}} on the page and a {{Uw-coi}} warning on your talk page, I am pointing you attention to the fact that if you have a relationship with BHU you are required to disclose it, even if it is not paid contribution. I always assume good faith, which is why I am asking politely instead of going directly to WP:ANI. No matter if you have such a relation or not, I will continue to assume good faith on your part. As for the material itself, perhaps "promotion" is a strong word, but since this is en encyclopedia and not a brochure, we are much less interested in primarily sourced material, and most of you edits (e.g., here and here but frankly all of it) is primarily sourced. I removed some material which was stricly against policy or consensus, but I am not really interested in editing this page extensively so I will leave that to you. Happy editing. Muhandes (talk) 09:19, 19 December 2021 (UTC)
@Muhandes: Thanks for clearing. I'd have loved to answer about 4 years part, being active and inactive, but let's save that for my UserPage's History section, I'll ping you when I update that. Indeed, I am from Varanasi; and aim to only edit about subjects I know. BHU has a special print on modern India's history, and its independence; it has a rich legacy, which includes being probably the only university in India of such scale which was actually crowdfunded from beggars to rulers. It is in light of these and other facts that I keep working on this article in order to improve to, to upscale it on ranking parameters of Wikipedia. I have seen your retractions, and while I welcome them on policy grounds I don't want you to leave this editing article and look forward to working with you to improve one article, with consensus and WP policy insights. Regards, User4edits (talk) 13:54, 19 December 2021 (UTC)
Being from Varanasi is not a source of conflict of interest, as long as you are not a student or an employee. Good luck improving the article, but please try to avoid primary sources. --Muhandes (talk) 08:26, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

Misuse of minor edits checkbox

Information icon Hi User4edits! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Varanasi‎ that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. -- Toddy1 (talk) 13:35, 1 January 2022 (UTC)

Disruptive Editors

  • @Navyison: You are engaged in disruptive editing of this article, despite my repeated warning and requests on your talk page. I am putting this here for the kind notice of other editors. Thank you,User4edits (talk) 08:09, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

User4edits (talk) Thanks for your concern. I did not do any disruptive editing. Kindly open the university page https://www.cuchd.in/about/governance.php shows that Dr. N. T. Rao is the Current Vice Chancellor of Chandigarh University. Dr. H.B. Raghavendra was the Vice-chancellor earlier than him. It is an up-to-date information.

@Navyison: Thank you for accepting that LinkedIn is not a reliable source. The website has just been updated with Dr. N.T. Rao, few hours ago it was Dr. H.B. Raghavendra, and it is NT Rao now, therefore, you can make your edit to NT Rao citing reliable sources. Please read this. However, since you were earlier citing LinkedIn relentlessly, I called your disruptive editing. Please do not put the same message on different talk pages. Thanks, User4edits (talk) 10:23, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
  • @User4edits: In that case, I mentioned You engaging in disruptive editing of this article, despite my repeated confirmation about correct information on your talk page, you are adding again false information.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Banaras Hindu University Kulgeet, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Indian.

Replaceable fair use File:Aamir Hussain.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Aamir Hussain.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 02:58, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

Nonetheless, Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I shall do the edits required, and would not like to be judged on just two errs of a one month's history of perm.

It's concerning that you used the right less than a dozen times in that trial, to be honest. I have not reviewed them, but go read Wikipedia:Vandalism again. Neither of those edits were vandalism. One was a sourced edit, that the creeper was originally meant to be a pig. The other I'm not an expert on the subject matter, but by all appearances it was not blatant bad faith vandalism. This is an important distinction. There are many reasons to revert something that ISN'T vandalism, and labelling such as vandalism is disruptive on it's own. Make sure you give a proper reason. -- ferret (talk) 17:07, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

Randhir Jaiswal moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Randhir Jaiswal, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Request on 05:40:02, 27 February 2024 for assistance on AfC submission by Jcody21


Hello, I would like to know what part of the sourcing guidelines you think the sources already included are failing. I understand that the first two sources are not independent/secondary to the subject, but it doesn't make sense to not include them as they are used to outline the goals of the study and what is to be reviewed and are a useful reference to confirm that what the article says is the stated intent. The other two sources should be sufficient to prove the notability of the subject, but if not, I had already attached further sources for article expansion in the future on the talk page, but I didn't want to waste the reviewer's time by including additional sources that all say the same thing. Should I include some of these other sources despite not saying more?

Hello, I have edited in history context of BHU and found it was reverted twice by you. Would you mind to share your views on reverting my text? We can discuss if you feel these is any correction. I can share links and other info if you may think that it's not valid. Thank You Gurmeetchahal (talk) 07:58, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Gurmeetchahal, You did not CITE any Reliable Source. Therefore it was undone. Also, just in case, [1] is not a Reliable Source. Thanks, User4edits (talk) 11:20, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
Hello, This is more surprising to me that you considered my link is not reliable solely. If you are the only decision maker here. It's hard to reach at common platform. There must be plenty of committee members from different community and professions in this specific scenario. However, many other similar links and citation are on this page and they haven't really put effort to prove their point, but they still exist. Is it sort of favouritism that one can play. Moreover, my link which you reshared with me is not even going to right webpage either. I am still open for discussion.Thank You Gurmeetchahal (talk) 13:25, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
I do not read AI generated replies. Sorry mate. @Gurmeetchahal. Feel free to come back when you have to say something. Thank you, User4edits (talk) 13:27, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
There is no AI thing on my side, If one has good writing skills, it doesn't mean he/she is using AI. Now, I would say, you are definitely doing something more suspicious or writing one sided stories on wiki pages. And why would I care if I know I am doing right things. I was very open to discuss with you on same table. But you are really not interested in open dialogues and taking charge of this community page all by yourself. If this will keep going on, no one really trust any open community platform. This is way much against wiki policies even when one person think or believe that he is only right and have enough free time to keep editing pages. Gurmeetchahal (talk) 17:54, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
@Gurmeetchahal Ah, my esteemed interlocutor, your assertion regarding the absence of artificial intelligence in your domain is duly noted, albeit with a measure of perplexity. It is incumbent upon us to acknowledge that the possession of commendable writing prowess does not ipso facto implicate the utilization of artificial intelligence. Indeed, the correlation between linguistic proficiency and the employment of automated means of composition is a matter warranting further contemplation.
However, I must regrettably express my bemusement at the insinuation levied against my personage. Your asseveration that my actions are tinged with suspicion or that I am predisposed to penning narratives of a unilateral nature upon the exalted annals of Wikipedia is, dare I say, confounding. It is incumbent upon us to approach such allegations with a modicum of circumspection, lest we inadvertently traverse the treacherous path of baseless conjecture.
Pray, indulge me in elucidating the fallacy inherent in the notion that one's commitment to rectitude should preclude an earnest engagement in discourse. Verily, I extend the proverbial olive branch in the spirit of amicable dialogue, yet I find myself beset by the specter of unilateralism masquerading as orthodoxy. Permit me to opine that the propagation of an environment conducive to open dialogue necessitates a willingness on the part of all stakeholders to engage in introspection and mutual understanding.
It grieves me to witness the erosion of trust within the crucible of community-driven platforms, for verily, the sanctity of such endeavors rests upon the foundation of collective endeavor and transparency. The assertion that the custodianship of a community page has been usurped by an individual imbued with a sense of unilateral righteousness strikes at the very core of our shared commitment to egalitarian principles.
In summation, let us endeavor to traverse the labyrinthine corridors of discourse with a spirit of magnanimity and intellectual humility. May the beacon of reason guide our deliberations as we navigate the tempestuous seas of communal governance, for it is only through concerted effort and genuine dialogue that we may hope to preserve the sanctity of open community platforms in accordance with the precepts of Wikipedia's hallowed policies. User4edits (talk) 21:30, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
@Gurmeetchahal I implore you to reconsider the tenor of your discourse and to channel your concerns through channels conducive to constructive dialogue and dispute resolution. Personal attacks and unfounded accusations have no place within the hallowed halls of Wikipedia, where the pursuit of knowledge is predicated upon the principles of civility, collaboration, and mutual respect. Let us endeavor to uphold these principles in our interactions, that we may continue to foster a community that is truly open, inclusive, and conducive to the advancement of knowledge for all. User4edits (talk) 21:34, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
wow, wow. this is really a lengthy letter and feels like you just wanted to show your writing skills but unfortunately you get caught within 3 milliseconds. Alas ! No wonder, copyrighters are going out of businesses soon as AI is being used everywhere. I really care less how do you use your natural language skills. I openly admire technology especially when I am coming from same industry. So, why would I question if one is taking help as long as person is delivering value to masses, we shouldn't either.
Let AI keep aside for now, I don't think you will ever get my perspective even I shared a link. Now, I feel, I am wasting my time. But I may try if I can gather more for citation. But again, who knows, it's very easy for you to dismiss it by just saying this is not enough. It's like cat-fight where Arabs and Indian are arguing each other who invented or brought zero to world first. Anyway, Let me wrap-up and I hope you will find peace. Thank You and Good Bye Gurmeetchahal (talk) 07:30, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

I recently wrote an article and you keep declining it by saying it's not notable

I wrote an article and you keep constantly rejecting it as. There's many issues with it.

1) First of all the issue mainly concerns of events in Bangladesh. I also only gave tags of Bangladesh in it. Why are Indian editors deciding whether an article concerning Bangladesh is notable or not instead of Bangladeshi editors?

2) You mentioned "Similar and much bigger instances of such protests (from Nepal, Maldives) have been moved/merged to respective country-India relations". You contradicted yourself because Wikipedia has a separate article on the current crisis in Maldives-India relations, see 2024 India–Maldives diplomatic row.

3) The article on this topic exists already on Bengali Wikipedia already. Here it is. It is a pretty big thing in the country right now. Do you suggest to instead translate the Bengali page?

I also replied to you in my talk page but you didn't bother to check it. Why are you, an Indian editor, deciding whether issues concerning Bangladesh are notable or not? Please let others, especially Bangladeshi editors decide on it. The issue is certainly notable and I proved it in my article. Please read it and if you still want to keep declining my article, provide evidence to support your claim. AyazKader (talk) 19:09, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello @AyazKader,
1. This is not about being Indian or Bangladeshi.
2. No, you are wrong. 2024 India–Maldives diplomatic row is completely different from India Out in Maldives (more notable event) which is present at India–Maldives relations.
3. Existence on Bengali Wikipedia is not a ticket to English Wikipedia.
Also, you kept repeatedly submitting the draft without any changes or improvements.
I could not see your reply as you were not pinging me, and I was not watching your talk page. Please see WP:NEVENT. Thanks, User4edits (talk) 02:56, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
I don't understand. If I write an article about Bangladesh, why will an editor from another country judge instead of a local editor who knows the events here better?
The one you showed for Maldives shows the Civil society perception. That has nothing to do with the movement in general. It doesn't have any mention of it either. Completely different topic.
I'm just showing that the event is notable. You constantly keep claiming that it's not while editors in the Bengali Wikipedia says otherwise. The article there is a bit different because it also includes the information about the movement in Maldives too
The article also meets the inclusion criteria
  1. It will have a lasting effect because the whole opposition in Bangladesh together with the civilians who support them are creating an effect already and have plummeted sales of Indian products. This will have an effect on trade and relations of the country in the future. All the references are in my draft. Read it if you don't believe me.
  2. It also received fairly good coverage on both local and international media. The movement is mostly a social media movement. You would see hashtags of the movement have been trending on social media since January as I proved in my article.
Why are you the only person deciding? There should be more people, especially Bangladeshi editors who should also decide here on this matter. AyazKader (talk) 05:15, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
@AyazKader, WP:NEVENT is a Wikipedia guideline. Any editor, of any nationality will go through it. Advise you to read it once. Thank you, User4edits (talk) 05:17, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
I read through it. I also explained how it meets the criteria. If you are really adamant about proving it's not notable, please explain how. You didn't raise any point against my argument. I think the best solution is Wikipedia:Third opinion AyazKader (talk) 15:38, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello, User4edits,

I saw that you tagged this draft for speedy deletion but there was no notification on the User talk page of the draft creator. You used Twinkle so this should have happened automatically. Please check your Twinkle Preferences and make sure, a) that the box "Notify page creator" box is checked off and b) that ALL CSD criteria boxes are checked off as well. It's important to let content creators know when pages that have worked on have been tagged for any type of deletion and, even more importantly, why they have been tagged. Thank you. Liz Read!

Hello, User4edits,

I don't know why you rejected this draft rather than just declining it and asked for it not only to be deleted but salted. Have you evidence that this article has already been created and deleted before? That's the reason why we salt a page and we rarely salt pages in Draft space. I looked at these references and while they are not secondary, they demonstrate that this subject has accomplished a lot. I think the article creator should be encouraged to improve the article with better sourcing instead of deleting the draft. AFC reviewers are supposed to help editors write better drafts unless the drafts are pure advertising and I don't think this is. Liz Read! Talk! 07:07, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Liz, As you will see, all references are primary, including his own websites. The user has repeatedly created uploaded the copyrighted image from the subject's own website, despite repeated warnings. The user has used most primary sources while their editing history suggests they have adequate knowledge of this basic policies of WP. I do not find the accomplishment demonstrated through WP:GNG or WP:SIGCOV. It rather fits the pattern of promo/advert BLPs. Thanks, User4edits (talk) 07:18, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi User4edits, thank you for your feedback on my recent draft discussing the career of Draft:Pankaj Mehta. On my own talk page, I have responded to your criticisms and would appreciate any more particular guidance on how to proceed you might provide. I'm writing you here because I am not certain if your or my own talk page is the more appropriate setting for this discussion.

Thank you again for your feedback.

Magenta.lily (talk) 15:55, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Responded at the appropriate venue. Thanks, Please feel free to ping/mention -- User4edits (T) 04:13, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
Hello, User4edits. I see you have removed my recently created article from the main article namespace. I have addressed your previous comments by adding several more sources about Mehta from other highly reputed science publications, Wired and Quanta magazines. You have requested that I not move the article myself if the article is in AfC, but the article is no longer in the AfC process. Could you please explain further why you have reverted this article?
If you again take issue with the quality or nature of the sources referenced, I would like to emphasize that in the comments on the draft page, it says:
“In summary, the draft needs to
meet any of the eight academic-specific criteria OR cite multiple reliable, secondary sources independent of the subject, which cover the subject in some depth
Make sure your draft meets ONE of the criteria above before resubmitting”
Mehta's page certainly meets criterion 3 of WP:NACADEMIC, so fulfilling the latter is
not strictly necessary; although, I would argue it is met. This is because Mehta has been elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society. The equivalence of being elected an APS Fellow and establishing notability has been agreed upon elsewhere, including on the talk page for APS Fellows. I would appreciate if you would more fully and specifically justify your actions and undo your reversion. I am not aware of any policy that prevents me from creating a page by moving, even if it has previously been in AfC. I am a confirmed user and have already created multiple pages through AfC. If you doubt the page I have created satisfies the criteria for being a Wikipedia page, a more appropriate process might be WP:PROD, not reversion of creation without discussion.
Thank you for your time, and I look forward to your response.

@Magenta.lily Hi, I have given the reason for revert in edit summary. (Bypassing AfC). I have also left comments on your talk page, asking you to wait patiently if you have submitted the Draft. You submitted the draft for AfC review and then moved it yourself. If he meets C3 of NPROF, a reviewer will accept the draft. Please be patient. Thanks, Please feel free to ping/mention -- User4edits (T) 05:21, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for your response. I am not aware of a policy that prohibits creating an article myself even if I have previously submitted the draft to AfC. If such a policy exists, I would greatly appreciate a link. Autoconfirmed users who have already created a page through AfC are not required to go through AfC again (see Wikipedia:Drafts#Publishing a draft). A relevant page and policy might be WP:DRAFTIFY which specifies that draftification should not be used as a proxy for deletion and one of the reasons outlined on that policy page must be specified when draftifying. On that policy page, it additionally states that draftification should not be used during new page review if “the topic is plausibly notable”. I would additionally review WP:DRAFTOBJECT.
As a gesture of good faith, I have resubmitted the page to AfC, and I would appreciate if you evaluate whether C3 of WP:NPROF is satisfied yourself as you previously rejected and then draftified the page, justified by it allegedly not meeting one sufficient but not necessary criterion. When making this consideration, I encourage you to read this talk page. I am requesting that you do this yourself. Thank you for your consideration. Magenta.lily (talk) 06:02, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

About multi-page move discussion

Hi there, I see that you have tried to open a multi-page move discussion, putting the discussion on both Talk:Royal Enfield (India) and Talk:Royal Enfield talk pages. However, this is not required and just one discussion at one location is sufficient. A bot will come by to put the RM banners on both pages, and as well as adding a notice on the other talk page. I have taken the liberty to undo one of the discussions so that the bot does not trip up any further. – robertsky (talk) 10:27, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I waited for a few seconds to see any change on the other talk page, but there was none. So I put it. Nonetheless, Thank you. Thanks, Please feel free to ping/mention -- User4edits (T) 11:24, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
Understandable. The bot runs every 30 minutes or so. Next time wait for an hour. If it is not there still, you can check with other editors at WT:RM. In a grand scheme of things, 1 hour for the bot to put up the notices is relatively small compared to the minimum 7-day discussion period. Cheers! :) – robertsky (talk) 14:44, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

Reference User talk:Publicrelationr:


It seems like there is a lot of interest to pay (esp in India) to be put on Wikipedia. In my recent hunting on Indian business/people, I have found most articles were created by experienced or such appearing editors with good knowledge of Wikipedia policies to understand that the subject won't be notable, but using that knowledge to bypass basic checks/scrutiny by others. Mentioning: @331dot @Flux55 @Jeraxmoira for their information. User4edits (talk) 07:54, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

Request on 03:36:38, 29 March 2024 for assistance on AfC submission by Seeking absolute truth


Hi, regarding your decision to not accept the article on Sandip Sinharay submitted by me, I would like to explain why the article is worth being included in Wikipedia. Your message indicates that the article should meet any of the eight academic-specific criteria. If you look carefully, the article meets three or four of the eight academic-specific criteria. So I request you to reconsider your decision of not accepting the article. One of the eight academic-specific criteria is "8. The person has been the head or chief editor of a major, well-established academic journal in their subject area." In my article, I provided links to prove that this person, Sandip Sinharay, is the current chief editor of Psychometrika that is a well-established journal in this person's field. If you have any doubts, please search the journal holdings at a university of your choice and you will find the journal Psychometrika there. Please also do another search to verify that Sandip Sinharay is indeed the editor of the journal. I also provided links to prove that he was editor of two other journals in his field---Journal of Educational Measurement and Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics. Again, please feel free to do your own search about the importance of these journals and to verify that he was indeed an editor of these journals. Criterion number 1 is "The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources." and I provided the Google scholar link to prove that the person's h-index is 38 and i10 index is 113. Again, if you know an academic, please ask that person what these numbers mean and you will find out that these numbers mean that Sandip Sinharay had a significant impact in his scholarly discipline. Criterion number 2 is that "The person has received a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level." and I provided links to prove that Sandip Sinharay received multiple awards from a well-recognized organization (National Council on Measurement in Education) in his field. Criterion number 6 is that the person has held a highest-level elected or appointed administrative post at a major academic institution or major academic society and Sandip Sinharay is a Distinguished Presidential Appointee at Educational Testing Service that is known all over the world. Thus, I request you to reconsider your decision after doing a little more homework on your part. While you want to be rigorous in your selection criteria, you surely want to include people who deserve to be included in Wikipedia. Regards, Seeking absolute truth

Seeking absolute truth (talk) 03:36, 29 March 2024 (UTC)

@Seeking absolute truth Hi,
I left this comment on the draft Also do not use SPS such as ORCID..
h-index of 38 and i10-index of 113 may be very impressive for you, but that is not. I am somewhat of an academician myself, and I know that there are far more people with far better indices, and they are not on Wikipedia, and that is fine. Further your other points are answered below:
Please see WP:NPROF:
  • Citation measures such as the h-index, g-index, etc., are of limited usefulness in evaluating whether Criterion 1 is satisfied. They should be approached with caution because their validity is not, at present, completely accepted, and they may depend substantially on the citation database used. They are also discipline-dependent; some disciplines have higher average citation rates than others.
  • For the purposes of Criterion 2, major academic awards, such as the Nobel Prize, MacArthur Fellowship, the Fields Medal, the Bancroft Prize, the Pulitzer Prize for History, etc., always qualify under Criterion 2. Some less significant academic honors and awards that confer a high level of academic prestige can also be used to satisfy Criterion 2. Examples may include certain awards, honors and prizes of notable academic societies, of notable foundations and trusts (e.g., the Guggenheim Fellowship, Linguapax Prize), etc. Significant academic awards and honors can also be used to partially satisfy Criterion 1 (see item 4 above in this section).
  • Citation measures such as the h-index, g-index, etc., are of limited usefulness in evaluating whether Criterion 1 is satisfied. They should be approached with caution because their validity is not, at present, completely accepted, and they may depend substantially on the citation database used. They are also discipline-dependent; some disciplines have higher average citation rates than others.
For C6, you said Sinharay is a Distinguished Presidential Appointee at Educational Testing Service. ETS is a private company, not an academic institution, and does not arise the question of a major academic institution or major academic society.
Hope this helps! Thanks, Please feel free to ping/mention -- User4edits (T) 05:07, 29 March 2024 (UTC)

Draft:Sandip Sinharay

I see your points about criteria 1 and 2. It is true that Sandip Sinharay will never win anything like the Nobel prize. However, you avoided commenting on my first comment--what about criterion 8? Sandip Sinharay is the editor-in-chief of a major journal in his field (Psychometrika) and has been the editor of two other major journals in his field. These facts seem to qualify his biography for Wikipedia. Or please explain how they do not. I removed the mention of ORCID from his bio. To a question from you, I am an early-career researcher and receive occasional advice from Sandip--so I have no conflict-of-interest about this matter and I just wrote some plain facts about his career in the bio---there is no promotion, selling etc. And he is not paying me. But interestingly, I was chatting with him after your decline and he said that he received an email from some Laura Walters who offered him to rewrite and include his bio in Wikipedia for $380. Of course, he is not going to pay anyone for this. Seeking absolute truth (talk) 00:31, 31 March 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply,
early-career researcher and receive occasional advice from Sandip along with I was chatting with him after your decline indicate that you clearly have a Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. You should declare it.
Next, as for C8, head or chief editor of a major well-established academic journal in their subject area. I do not think journals with impact factor of 1 or 2 will be called major well-established. Lastly, please ask Sandip to report such emails as per Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Scam warning. He (and you too) may also want to read this article -- An article about yourself isn't necessarily a good thing. Anyway, the draft is open, you can work and re-try. By the way, it is still full of WP:SPS sources such as GoogleScholar, own journals, primary sources. Thanks, Thanks, Please feel free to ping/mention -- User4edits (T) 05:58, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
Where does it say that Google scholar is a WP:SPS source? On the other hand, the text "On many topics, there are different interpretive schools which use the same documents and facts but use different frameworks and come to different conclusions. Useful access points include: scholar.google.com and books.google.com, and (through libraries) ABC-CLIO’s two abstract services, American: History and Life (for journal articles and book reviews dealing with the US and Canada), and Historical Abstracts (for the rest of the world.) Research libraries will hold paper guides to authoritative sources." on Wikipedia:Reliable source examples seems to imply that Google scholar is a good source. Unfortunately, there is no independent source listing all the research work of an academic in our field. Also, you do not think journals with impact factor of 1 or 2 are "major well-established", but do you know of "It has been stated that impact factors in particular and citation analysis in general are affected by field-dependent factors which invalidate comparisons not only across disciplines but even within different fields of research of one discipline."? (Source: Journal Citation Reports). What in your opinion is a good impact factor in our field then? Also, even if we agree that impact factor of 1 and 2 are bad, Psychometrika's 2022 impact factor of 3.0. But anyway, now you will write that 3 is not much better than 2. I am increasingly getting the impression that you will keep rejecting each time because you are probably running a racket where you will decline articles and your buddies will contact the persons, offering to have their biography accepted in exchange for money. In this case, you are also clever enough to have a buddy with a U.S. name and email account (of Laura Walters). If you do not mind, what is your share in the $380 that Laura asked from Sandip Sinharay? And your plan is good. Some people will pay up. For example, I see a Wikipedia article on Alina von Davier, one of the biggest self-promoters in our field. You can verify that Alina von Davier's h-index and i10-index are less than Sandip Sinharay's; the two of then worked in the same company (ETS) for 10 years and their career trajectories are very similar. So it is amazing that her article is up and you are working so hard to reject Sandip Sinharay's. It must be that Alina von Davier paid to have her article accepted (who knows, maybe, you got a cut for her article). I will try to bring this issue to the attention of others at Wikipedia. In the meantime, I added a COI statement in my article on Sandip Sinharay (but that does not matter, because Sandip Sinharay won't pay your buddy--so his bio will never be accepted).

Can you please show me any page to support your statement that Google scholar is a WP:SPS source? On the other hand, on Wikipedia:Reliable source examples, the text "On many topics, there are different interpretive schools which use the same documents and facts but use different frameworks and come to different conclusions. Useful access points include: scholar.google.com and books.google.com, and (through libraries) ABC-CLIO’s two abstract services, American: History and Life (for journal articles and book reviews dealing with the US and Canada), and Historical Abstracts (for the rest of the world.) Research libraries will hold paper guides to authoritative sources." seems to imply that Google scholar is a good source. Unfortunately, because Sandip Sinharay is not at a university, there is no independent source other than Google scholar or ORCID that list all of his research work. Also, you do not think journals with impact factor of 1 or 2 are "major well-established", but you must know of "It has been stated that impact factors in particular and citation analysis in general are affected by field-dependent factors which invalidate comparisons not only across disciplines but even within different fields of research of one discipline." (Source: Journal Citation Reports). What in your opinion is a good impact factor in Sandip Sinharay's field then? Also, even if we agree that impact factor of 1 and 2 are bad, Psychometrika's (that he is an editor of) 2022 impact factor is 3.0. Also, in educational measurement or psychometrics (his field), impact factors of 3 or h-index of 38 and i10-index of 113 are not bad at all. For example, Alina von Davier, who has a Wikipedia page, is in a similar field as Sandip Sinharay and has an h-index of 37 and i10-index of 100 (both less than Sandip Sinharay's). Finally, I added links to his getting funded by prestigious U.S. Federal agencies like National Science Foundation and Institute of Education Sciences--hope they convince you of his notable academic criterion.

Speedy deletion nomination of Sanjay Srivastava (academician)

Hello User4edits,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Sanjay Srivastava (academician) for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly indicate why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!
