Consider adding "Order of St. Andrew" honorific prefix in the info box. Also consider mentioning it somewhere in Awards and Nominations subpage. (refer to Order of St. Andrew's last induction for more info). Contributor2020 (talk) 15:06, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
- Added to the awards section. We don't include these sorts of awards as a prefix. RegentsPark (comment) 15:22, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
What's with the edit warring over this? IP, I'm going to revert you; please come in and discuss. Valereee (talk) 12:56, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- My point of view is that the WP:Discrimination project was there for a very long time on the talk page of Narendra Modi. why User:Rasnaboy suddenly removed it without reaching consensus on this matter. You can check the history. Moreover, in the main article, the discriminatory tone is clearly described in the main body of the article. Hence, I have re-added the project; if other editors think the WP:Discrimination project is not required, then we can remove it. There should be proper consensus on this matter. And moreover, why was the was the WP:Hindusim project added? Is he a Hindu spiritual and religious guru like Adi Shankara, Ramakrishna, or Ramana Maharshi? If the WP:Discrimination project can be removed, then WP:Hindusim project too should be removed. He is a religious bigot, which is clearly described in the main article with proper sources.

- I'll notify that project that there's a discussion here. Valereee (talk) 13:17, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hm...actually, that project is inactive. Valereee (talk) 13:19, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- Recently it became inactive. I even think WP:Hinduism project too should be removed. I already gave an explanation for that.--2409:40E0:4:BB81:3DB3:9441:451C:E563 (talk) 13:21, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- IP, I have no opinion on whether Project Hinduism would be interested, but it does seem weird that this article would be marked as high-importance for Hinduism. High importance for that project means "This article is fairly important to this project, as it covers a general area of knowledge." I'm not sure how Modi could be considered a general area of knowledge for Hinduism. But either way, the inclusion of one project is irrelevant to the discussion of including anotehr project, so please move on.
- Your argument for inclusion seems to be that if a person is a bigot, they're of interest to a project that includes bigotry as one of its areas of coverage. I think that's a reach. And it's a silly hill to die on -- even the average editor doesn't see which projects are listed as being interested. It seems kind of WP:POINTY to me, like you want to punish the article subject for being a bigot by including this Wikiproject. Valereee (talk) 13:30, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- I've notified at WT:INB. Valereee (talk) 13:23, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- IP, I'm going to remove this again while it is discussed. Please do not re-add, or I'll have to block you from this page for edit-warring, and then you won't be able to participate in the discussion. Valereee (talk) 13:35, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- I was keen to add the WP:Discrimination project because it has been there for a very long time, and moreover, the article brilliantly states about the religious bigotry of Modi aganists: 200 million Muslims and 30 million Christians inspite of knowning India being a secular state as per the Constitution (Source). This project should be added because of the discriminatory activities that the person has unleashed, as the article clearly states. The discrimination against these two Abrahamic religions is a reminder of Nazi Germany. where Jews were butchered, and here in India, Muslims and Christians are butchered and face massive discrimination. See Violence against Muslims in independent India, Violence against Christians in India & Hindu terrorism. Even in 21st Century India, Nazi Germany like discrimination still exist. True Hindu saints, which I have mentioned above, won't propagate hatred against other religions, nor will an average Hindu guy. Anyway, let's see what other editors have to say. A religious bigot is bigot and we have to say it lound & clear. Thanks and Regards--2409:40E0:4:BB81:4D4D:5887:23B1:CDBA (talk) 15:57, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- IP, your comments above, besides likely violation WP:BLP, represent a misunderstanding of the purpose of tagging an article with a wikiproject template. To wit, the project templates are not a mark of ownership, nor a means to label the subject of the article. Rather the aim is to aid collaborative editing, as in:
- Help the project members to coordinate improvements to the articles that are likely to be within their sphere of interest and knowledge, and
- Guide an editor who wants help with an article to venues where they may find editors who are interested in and knowledgeable about the article's subject
- Since both the Hinduism and Discimination wikiprojects are currently inactive they don't serve that collaborative function, and therefore it's fine IMO to remove the respective templates from this page. (Note that I would argue against removing these projects' templates systematically from all wikipedia article talkpages, for reasons we can discuss elsewhere.) Abecedare (talk) 19:58, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Valereee, @Abecedare Further, I notice some users consistently adding irrelevant wikiprojects (discrimination, terrorism, crime and criminal biographies, etc.) in Bharatiya Janata Party, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, Hindutva, and other similar pages. As I don't find these relevant there, I tried removing some of these, but I'm not sure how many other similar pages have such WP pov attack. Can you please look into these. Thanks. Rasnaboy (talk) 05:29, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- There now seems to be a swarm of such things (both Wikiprojects and categories) in more such pages: Talk:Vasundhara Raje, Talk:K. S. Sudarshan, Sangh Parivar, Talk:List of Sarsanghchalaks of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, Talk:Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, and more. A thorough cross-check by other disinterested users is warranted.
