Talk:International reaction to the demolition of the Babri mosque

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Please fix the capitalization in the title of this article. It should be: Babri Mosque with "mosque" capitalized. I don't know how to fix the title. I copy-edited the rest of this page -- capitalization, punctuation, and shortening run-on sentences.I don't believe that I changed the content. As soon as the capitalization of the title is fixed, I think that it can be removed from the list of articles that needs its capitalization fixed.Alexhopkins (talk) 06:00, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merge (de facto redirect)

[edit]

I already merged all the non-redundant content to Demolition of Babri Masjid#International reactions. Nothing was lost in the process and the main article isn't imbalanced by the inclusion of this content. So restoring the redirect will help readers and avoid unnecessary duplication. If that section is further developed to be more substantial, it can be split out again. Fences&Windows 05:19, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]


This is no WP:COATRACK - this has nothing to do with a Hindu point of view of anything. All I am saying is that the data is saying that these particular international reactions also led to an aggravation of socio-religious conflict in countries outside India, where the Babri mosque demolition took place. In regards to choice of words - (1) "Procession" is used because it was supposed to be an ordinary procession that took everybody by surprise (note I do not enter into the debate of pre-determined actions) when it suddenly descended upon the mosque site.
(2) The use of the word "mob" - dictionary definition is a "disorderly crowd of people". Why do you want me to go "word-for-word" from the sources? Why assume the New York Times's use of "crowds" is any healthier or NPOV than "mob" when the action is being clearly described for what it is? Should I allege the NYT of bias in favour of Muslims, as you seem to insinuate I am incorporating in favour of Hindus? Shiva, Lord Blackadder 10:18, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
