Problems with copied verison

edit

The IP asked me to give an explanation for what was wrong with that version, and, specifically what policies apply. There are several.

  • WP:NOT, specifically, WP:INDISCRIMINATE and WP:NOTREPOSITORY. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. Encyclopedias summarize relevant information. We don't copy a line from every different review we can find. Instead, we provide summaries and pick out particularly notable or well-written reviews.
  • WP:Quotations, while an essay, is one of the most generally followed essays I can think of. It says, "While quotations are an indispensable part of Wikipedia, try not to overuse them." Look, in fact, at the whole section linked at WP:QUOTEFARM.
  • WP:CONSENSUS. I bring this up because Wikipedia is edited collaboratively. When editors disagree, they seek consensus on talk pages. If they can't come to an agreement themselves, then they follow dispute resolution. It is abundantly obvious to me and at least one other editor that this article would be far worse, far less useful to readers, and far less encylopedic if it were a quote farm. As such, the burden is on the other editor to convince us that we're wrong, and to follow DR if xe can't.

So, 111, convince us. Explain to us why your version doesn't violate WP:NOT, and why, even if it's technically within those boundaries, it's a better version. Qwyrxian (talk) 15:16, 18 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

OK! In WP:NOTREPOSITORY, I have not added mere collections of public domain or other source material. According to WP:QUOTEFARM, my revision was "over quoted" according to you in the critical reception and soundtrack reception sections, but I have added only significant viewpoints that have been published by reliable sources. Also, I have not added excessive listings of statistics, as stated in WP:INDISCRIMINATE.
Now, to the question that which version is better. I have never said that my version is the better one or your's it. It is just that I have tried to add more information, while deleting unwanted details that was added in the page. So, the edit becomes a better one than what it was earlier. Now, say why is my edit so wrong in your judgement? Let us discuss it in this page, according to WP:Consensus. Bye! 111.92.95.7 (talk) 12:03, 21 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
I agree. And I also agree that the current version is bad. We definitely want to have some info. But we don't want a list of a dozen different reviews. Of the reviews you found, which ones do you think are the most important? I don't know enough about Indian cinema to know where the most important movie review sites are. Let's try to find 3 to start with. Qwyrxian (talk) 12:25, 21 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the reply. I think that the reviews by Taran Adarsh and Rajeev Masand are important. Rest, I am not sure. In soundtrack reception, the review by Joginder Tuteja seems important.111.92.95.8 (talk) 13:21, 23 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
I agree that a review by someone notable enough to have a WP article is a good place to start. But your last point is problematic. Yes, we could at at least 5 reviews. Heck, we "could" add all of them, like you previously did. But we don't because that's not what Wikipedia is for. We are here to provide an encyclopedic overview, not list everything under the sun about the subject. As for the soundtrack, I need the input of other editors.

First thing i have seen in every good article ,reviews of critics are arranged in descending order as i dont know the reason but it seems good and well maintained.Taran Adarsh,Anupama Chopra,Komal Nahta,Aniruddha Guha,Rajeev Masand,Gaurav Malani etc are well known critics from news websites.--Zeeyanketu 23:36, 23 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
Here is my opinion. Add any 3-5 of the reviews of Taran Adarsh (Bollywood Hungama), Gaurav Malani (The Economic Times), Madhureeta Mukherjee (The Times of India), Rajeev Masand (CNN-IBN), Zee News, Sonia Chopra (Sify) and Raja Sen (Rediff) in that descending order. In sound track reception, add the reviews of Joginder Tuteja (Bollywood Hungama) and The Times of India. Thanks! Josephjames.me (talk) 16:15, 31 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
