Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information
[edit]I have removed the unduly long list of BSNL units that seems to be inserted only for increasing the length of the article. Please avoid long lists which do not convey any useful information. I also object to the posting of advertising information by a BSNL employee on this discussion page. Wikipedia is not a forum for canvassing goods and services Naveenpf 14:19, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:BSNL Logo.png
[edit]Image:BSNL Logo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

merge proposal
[edit]I propose the merger of Sancharnet, BSNL Broadband and BSNL Mobile into Bharat Sanchar Nigam. These small articles are better covered here by expanding section on services. I hardly find any reason to create articles on different departments of same company.--Nizil (talk) 05:39, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
- Support The information can be better consolidated. Guru-45 (talk) 12:34, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- Support The information on those individual articles is too less to occupy their own articles. The articles can be merged under Bharat Sanchar Nigam. NiRinsanity 07:31, 13 June 2014 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 12 July 2019
[edit]This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
Please correct "Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) is an Indian state-owned telecommunicatious.Who will watch this will be a kutta." in the very first sentence. It is possible vandalism. Please correct this to "Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) is an Indian state-owned telecommunicatious." That is, remove the "Who will watch this will be a kutta." sentence. 117.203.182.77 (talk) 19:44, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
- Done, thanks! aboideautalk 19:55, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

That is, remove the "Who will watch this will be a kutta." sentence. It is most likely vandalism. 117.203.182.77 (talk) 19:45, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
Closure
[edit]There is an editorial conflict in the section. Some editors wanted to include a fragment how inefficient the company is. While the others wanted to state that the Government decided to close the company. Both fragments are sourced and quite compatible so I have merged them together. Please do not remove any without discussing it first. I have my liberty to change "decided to close" into "consider to close": the Company is not closed yet, right?
I personally still do not like the part about rumors to close. We have the policy WP:CBALL that we do not cover unverifiable speculations or presumptions, but if you think that those rumors are notable, then it is your decision. Alex Bakharev (talk) 22:09, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
Loss making entity
[edit]It is surprising to see that despite many government revival plans, BSNL has been a loss-making enterprise for years now. This fact is missing, so either this page is being whitewashed by the company PR itself or sock puppets. This needs to be investigated. For now I have added two lines, lets see.. "In 2022, BSNL reported a loss of Rs 57,671 crore since inception.[1]In the the financial year 2022-23 it has a loss of Rs 6,662 crore. [2]" --Ekabhishektalk 17:46, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
