Hi, I have a request for the Wikipedia page for Divya Drishti, I need someone to remove Karan Khanna from the starring list and main cast section since he’s no longer part of the show Here’s the article to prove it https://www.indiaforums.com/article/karan-khanna-bids-farewell-to-divya-drishti-pens-an-emotional-post_154036

Can you please help me and remove his name from these sections? Divyadrishtifans (talk) 01:58, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: @Divyadrishtifans: This request is ridiculous. This is an encyclopedia. Encyclopedias care about the entire history of a series, not just the current shape of it. By what stretch of the imagination would we remove a cast member simply because they don't appear on the show anymore? If the series was canceled, by your logic, we would have to delete everybody's names. Read Template:Infobox television instructions for the |starring= parameter and see WP:TVCAST as well, which addresses this. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 02:03, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

He’s in the recurring section, He doesn’t have to be in the starring list or main cast section if he’s not there anymore. Also, he wasn’t even a main cast member. Have you even watched the show? It’s been six months since he left the show. He should stay in the recurring section not the main cast or starring list. Divyadrishtifans (talk) 23:43, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I will find a way to edit the page since you’re stressing me out Divyadrishtifans (talk) 23:45, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You don't have WP:CONSENSUS for the changes you are attempting to make, so making that change would be considered disruptive. If you can substantiate that he was not a main cast member, then that might be a reason to move him, (and Mishkat Varma I would imagine), but since your first attempts to bring clarity to this article involved the entire deletion of any mention of Karan Khanna, I'm a little wary to just accept your word that the Shikhar Shergill character isn't a main character. Please substantiate. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 23:50, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Remove

Hi I’d like to edit the page since there’s new people in Divya Drishti, they entered the show last weekend Can you please allow me to edit the page? Divyadrishtifans (talk) 23:40, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Karan Khanna back to Main cast

In this edit I moved the names of Karan Khanna and Kushagre Dua into the Main cast section per brief discussion at User talk:Rakshit Shergil. This editor asserts that Khanna and Dua are or were part of the main cast. I don't know for sure, but since another user earlier tried to delete Khanna from the article's history entirely, then issued some confusing justification about it (see conversation above), I have zero confidence that it is accurate to say that Khanna was never part of the main cast.j I think with the earlier user, they were trying to create a world where our article only reflect the current shape of the series, which is an entirely ignorant and unhelpful way to build an article.
