Mentioning Caste

[edit]

Dear Editors!
There has been a discussion on India Portal related to mentioning of caste of subjects. The point is that mentioning caste of people, who have nothing to do with their caste, is found to be unnecessary by few editors. Hence the caste of the subject person needs to be deleted from the biography. I am not deleting the caste as of now but am only posting this here so that the regular editors of this article are well aware of it beforehand and no edit-wars take place. For details of discussion held on the portal please refer Wikipedia_talk:Noticeboard_for_India-related_topics#Mentioning_caste_of_Individuals. Your views if any are welcome there or even here.
And.... as the reasons of exclusion of caste pointed out were "irrelavant to notability of subject person", "privacy of the subject person", "inclusion of caste is like branding individuals", etc. other information included in the article which also fall under these cases will also be removed after discussions. Examples of it included religion, non-notable spouse's and children's and parents' information, previous occupation, lived in places, non-notability related educational qualification, etc.
Your views on this are also welcome here or at the India portal. -Animeshkulkarni (talk) 15:05, 2 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not here, please. There is a community discussion taking place at WT:INB and I would advise people to read the entire discussion before forming an opinion because the above summary is incorrect. Nothing more need be said here. - Sitush (talk) 01:29, 4 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Year of death and age at death

[edit]
Death date

There seems to be a dispute over when she died.[1][2][3][4] The following source says that she died on Wednesday 29 January 2003, at the age of 73.

  • "Pandari Bai dies at 73". The Times of India. 29 January 2003.

I have put the citation against the date of death in the lede and the infobox. But there is still a problem; according to the date of birth in the Wikipedia article, she was 74 when she died.-- Toddy1 (talk) 05:23, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Year of birth

The following source says that she was born in 1930:

Of course it is possible that the journalist calculated her year of birth from when she died and her reported age at death.-- Toddy1 (talk) 05:51, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I’m very happy with the Times of India citation, Toddy1. Good work. George Custer's Sabre (talk) 07:30, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The following sources also say that she was born in 1930:
I think the date of birth of 8 September 1928 should be regarded as dubious. I realise that a lot of internet sites have it - but they could have copied it from Wikipedia.-- Toddy1 (talk) 07:52, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
