Ratan Tata success story to now 117.200.12.205 (talk) 14:51, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

why do you keep removing any mentions of his death in the lead section ???

why do you keep removing any mentions of his death in the lead section ??? it's common practice all throughout wikipedia man @Jkaharper KabirDH (talk) 18:56, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @KabirDH: – his death is already mentioned in the opening brackets of the article lead, in the infobox field, and in the "personal life and death" section of his article. It doesn't get mentioned a fourth time at the end of the article lead. I don't know why you think this is the case, but I suggest you got and read WP:MS for help with how articles are generally written, laid out, and sourced. Thanks --Jkaharper (talk) 18:58, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Common practice all throughout wikipedia, i ask you to change the millions of articles doing the same before doing the same to this

Atal Bihari Vajpayee Margaret Thatcher KabirDH (talk) 19:02, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The third line of the lead (He headed its charitable trusts) feels very abrupt and incomplete. I have tried editing it a couple of times but my edits keep getting caught in your reverts. "He continued to head its charitable trusts till his death." seems like a much better replacement. Lone Warrior 007 (talk) 19:06, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

added! KabirDH (talk) 19:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid you're mistaken KabirDH – Thatcher and ABV were heads of state, and their deaths spawned state funerals, hence mentioning it again in the summary is appropriate. For Tata it isn't, it's already covered in the infobox and in the personal life section. There really is little more than to say he died in hospital in Mumbai. It's not a defining moment of his life. --Jkaharper (talk) 19:09, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

they were heads of government, and much isn't mentioned about their death on articles apart from when they died - it is NOT mentioned what type of funeral they were accorded. I request you to reach a consensus before reverting KabirDH (talk) 19:11, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In accordance with Wikipedia policy, I strongly suggest you stop edit warring now before you are banned. If there is an objection to something being included in the article by other users then it's your job to raise it here and restore it to the page until there is a consensus from other users that it should be added. Next time you add it in, I'll take this to the administrator's noticeboard. --Jkaharper (talk) 19:16, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

more than glad for you to take this to the admin's noticeboard KabirDH (talk) 19:17, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It is your turn to reach a consensus before making any reverts, thank you KabirDH (talk) 19:20, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @KabirDH:, just an FYI that I have raised this at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard. I'm sorry that we couldn't arrive at a conclusion here. --Jkaharper (talk) 19:37, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi how do I edit?

Please help 2A04:7F80:2054:2600:AD74:924D:C8F8:51AC (talk) 19:44, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Since the page is semi-protected for 2 days, you can either wait it out or make an edit request here. — hako9 (talk) 05:24, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 10 October 2024

It is requested that the semi-protected page at Bharat Ratan Tata be created. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.
