SEO attempt edit

This IP 212.150.97.3 keeps adding the link to watchindia.tv as the live streaming link. This link clearly doesn't carry live streaming and as such could be considered an attempt at SEO.

Request a suitable course of action. ChiragPatnaik (talk) 06:27, 11 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

  • YOur changes have caused more problems than anything. You removed content because you don't like it, you added multiples of the same content, you removed categories. If your edits don't include such problems then they won't be reverted. —SpacemanSpiff 01:36, 16 January 2018 (UTC)Puzzled*Reply
  • My two edits did not remove any categories as far as I can see [1] and [2] or added multiple content as far as I can see.

Now with your permission can I add when the channel was started that is 2006 and it was started in alliance with Reuters.Further Can I add it is India's leading channel and the most viewed English News Channel. as per the sources as per Financial Times ,The Hindu and also Financial Express] and BBC calls it country's top English-language channel. IF you want me to change the wording that is fine.Grebeenos (talk) 05:37, 16 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Wire edit

@Akhiljaxxn: Your link[3] does not confirm anywhere that The Wire is a reliable source. Stop misrepresenting the discussion. The Wire remains one of the unreliable sources that we have to avoid for subjects such as this. Capitals00 (talk) 15:15, 22 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

On [4] link WBG clearly stated that the wire ought to pass WP:RS under WP:NEWSORG .And is well accepted by other users who participated in that discussion. Akhiljaxxn (talk) 00:36, 23 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
The Wire is an unreliable source for anything "tangentially connected to politics, nationalism et al" by the very link you supplied, period. So you would do well to find a better source, that is, if the incident was even notable. MBlaze Lightning 06:04, 25 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
