I'm sorry, but you need to be more specific (what, for example, is GCSK?). Please also note that titles are not generally added to names so you will need to make a specific case for adding this one. RegentsPark (comment) 17:49, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
He is simply requesting the addition of details regarding the conferral of the Highest National Award of Mauritius to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, specifically in the Awards and Recognition section. This is a straightforward and factual update — something that should be routine for an experienced admin like yourself. Yet, instead of addressing it directly, you've opted to dodge the matter by feigning ignorance or overcomplicating what is essentially a no-brainer.
Assume good faith. We are not here for work, and this is not our job, Wikipedia is a voluntary project. How would someone know what GCSK means? Also, the edit request was not complete. Simply saying New title of GCSK must be added to his name does not constitute a proper edit request. If you want to request an addition here, please provide a proper edit request with clear details and reliable sources. GrabUp - Talk06:34, 6 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the clarification. I do appreciate that Wikipedia is a collaborative and voluntary effort, and I fully agree that we should all strive to assume good faith. That said, there’s a difference between assuming good faith and dismissing valid edit suggestions due to form rather than substance.
The original request — albeit brief — clearly pointed to the inclusion of the GCSK title, which refer to the "Grand Commander of the Order of the Star and Key of the Indian Ocean," the highest civilian honour conferred by Mauritius. This is a publicly documented fact and was widely reported by credible news outlets at the time of conferral. The addition of this honour to the Awards and Recognition section of Narendra Modi’s page would simply be consistent with how such information is typically recorded for notable public figures, including heads of state and government.
If the issue was with the phrasing or completeness of the original request, a more constructive response might have been to ask for a citation or suggest how the request could be improved — not dismiss it outright as lacking specificity. 152.56.17.126 (talk) 07:13, 6 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I’m happy to resubmit a properly formatted edit request, with sources included, but I do hope that going forward, good faith is extended in both directions. 152.56.17.126 (talk) 07:19, 6 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The issue isn't formatting, the issue is that your first request wasn't comprehensible. I have added the award now that GrabUp has clarified what you were asking for. Alleging malintent is a good way to get future edit requests ignored entirely. Vanamonde93 (talk) 15:57, 6 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Change "On 6 December 2020, he became the fourth-longest-serving Prime Minister of India and the longest-serving non-Congress prime minister" to "On 6 December 2020, he became the fourth-longest-serving Prime Minister of India and the longest-serving non-Congress prime minister. In April 2029 senior BJP leader Devendra Fadanavis confrimed that Modi will continue to lead the country beyond 2029 and discardrd the retirement rumors of Modi."
Hi there, I believe the proposed addition is too speculative to add to the article, as we do not yet know the results of the next Indian general election. One of Wikipedia's policies, "Wikipedia is not a crystal ball", states that unverifiable speculation is not appropriate in articles. This is the same reason the "retirement rumors of Modi" are not mentioned in the article in the first place. — Newslingertalk16:06, 12 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Like other governments, Modi government also faced security lapses since 2014 he became pm weather it was pulwama attack or the recent pahalgam attack by terrorists. I need assistance from editors that where should i write about these security lapses under his premiership in a separate section. Should i add this in Narendra Modi article or in Narendra Modi premiership article? Thanks TheSlumPanda (talk) 08:09, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I think a sentence or two in this Narendra Modi article on security lapses, and a more detailed paragraph or so in the premiership article would make sense. EarthDude (talk) 15:49, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
If the sources support this, then that sort of length would make sense, but I'm not sure that they do. If you want to discuss "security lapses" during Modi's premiership, you need sources explicitly discussing that - not just news coverage of incidents of terrorism or militancy during Modi's premiership. Vanamonde93 (talk) 16:36, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Vanamonde93 I support your words that they should explicitly mention about modi premiership but at present the reality is that mostly the news media of india is baised and they rarely wrote against modi government. TheSlumPanda (talk) 17:07, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
There are various news sources such as The Wire (India) or The Caravan or international media such as Al Jazeera that could have articles discussing security lapses under Modi.
Some examples we could give are the uri, pulwama, pathankot, reasi, and the recent pahalgham attack. We could also include the 2022 security breach and the 2023 parliament breach.
While finding news sources, especially from the Indian mainstream media which is mostly pro-government isn't easy, it's not fully impossible either. After some searching, I have found some usable sources. I'm sure there are a lot of other sources we can use too.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]EarthDude (talk) 18:40, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
