Talk:Visakhapatnam Steel Plant

Spurious Introduction?

The introduction, with appalling grammar, reads as if it was written by a meatpuppet. I recommend gutting it. Olivcm (talk) 03:03, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

PR Effort

The overall tone of this article reads as if its taken from public relation sources. Several lines can be found on sites promoting Vizag, including one quote from the Vizag Steel website.

"The Coke Ovens of VSP are engineering feats by themselves" is also found at Vizag Steel: [1]

"The beauty of the Township is that it sits in the cradle of the unspoilt forest belt" & "The continued afforestation efforts of the management has ensured a green and pollution-free environment" & "Last but not the least is the vistas that the Big Kanithi Balancing reservoir offers." are also found at VIZAG - Heaven on the Earth: [2]

"The beautiful and well planned township for the employees of the plant" is also found at Vizag 27 by 7: [3]

"...bagged first prize" & "Vizag Steel Plant today is among the lowest cost steel producers in the world." are also found at Vizag Business Watch: [4]

The plant was a project of SAIL when it started. Sometime in the 1980's it was spun off as a separate company. More information would be helpful.

Cabinet clears privatisation of Visakhapatnam Steel Plant

Devopam Nivas10798 Muhandes Please mention cabinet clears privatisation of Visakhapatnam Steel Plant. Source

Please also mention that it caused massive protest in Vizag city. Source Rizosome (talk) 07:27, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Rizosome: Why do you ping me, or anyone else for that matter? Do you have a conflict of interests? If so, please use {{edit request}}. Otherwise, be bold and make the edit yourself. If you need help please use {{help me}}. --Muhandes (talk) 08:27, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, I gave the source a look, and it talks about Rashtriya Ispat Nigam, not about this plant, so some thought needs to be given as to how to write this. --Muhandes (talk) 08:34, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Merge proposal

I propose merging Visakhapatnam Steel Plant into Rashtriya Ispat Nigam.

Visakhapatnam Steel Plant is common name of the plant operated by corporate entity Rashtriya Ispat Nigam Limited.

Rashtriya Ispat Nigam has no other plant elsewhere. So having two pages - one for the corporate entity and one for the plant has no meaning. Ved548 (talk) 12:50, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support merge; while the Visakhapatnam Steel Plant is well-referenced, it overlaps heavily with the content at Rashtriya Ispat Nigam. I looked at whether the content could be separated, but that would leave Rashtriya Ispat Nigam very bare, as it seems that the Visakhapatnam Steel Plant is core to its activities.

Support merge. I reviewed the article. scope_creep^Talk 11:19, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merger complete. Klbrain (talk) 18:06, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
