Fake Claim of Guinness Record

[edit]

Please check the Guinness World Records Website [[1]] There is no such claim of Youngest CEO, and also if you want you can email them and they clearly state that there is no claims such as Youngest CEO, Youngest Artist or any such thing like that. Please don't take it as if I am doing a disruptive editing. I wanted a deep research on the claim. However, if aren't satisfied yet, please check on Official Guinness Website directly instead of blindly depending on the resources. It may be a matters of coincidence that following this article on Wikipedia the news sources have taken the reference. A simple google search proves that very easily. I would also like the author of the article to upload the picture of original Guinness Record Certificate along with it's Serial Number for Verification. I think that will be fine to define my point.

This source, the Hindustan Times says she holds the Guiness Record for Indian's Youngest, as such, I have clarified the article to say that as it was previously ambiguous. Regardless, there is a secondary source making that claim, so it should not be outright deleted. --kelapstick(bainuu) 11:55, 10 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It can indeed be outright deleted if Guiness indicates that it is wrong. Guiness is also a secondary source relative to the article's topic. Doczilla Ohhhhhh, no! 04:29, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Undue Weightage and Wrong Claims

[edit]

There is an undue weight added to the article by the author by making a false claim of Guinness World Record which can be easily verified on their website. There may be an attempt to outbeat the existing Youngest CEO Suhas Gopinath who is already recognized Internationally. I totally do not agree if the admins of Wikipedia don't put an effort to check the claim directly on the website of Guinness World Records. And moreover the user FrozenPrakash did qork only on this article, whicb clearly states the purpose of article. Moreover the bot removed the Category Guinness World Records once but this fellow added again but unfortunately got away with no user objecting it.123.201.175.108 (talk) 17:44, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Name

[edit]

Sources disagree about the subject's last name. The Hindustan Times article pointed out above, as well as Rediff and Cosmopolitan call her "Rajamaran". However, the Deccan Herald, Economic Times and Times of India, Indian Express and De Standaard call her "Rajaraman". For added confusion, Yahoo finance and another Times of India article go with "Rajaram". A count of Google News hits is rather unconclusive with "Rajaraman" slightly in the lead, but figures for "Rajamaran" seem inflated by Rediff "hits" that are unrelated. Furthermore, "Rajaraman" and "Rajaram" make etymological sense - it's a common Indian name meaning "King Rama" (in North Indian and South Indian varieties), whereas "Rajamaran"... isn't. For these reasons I'll change the lead to "Sindhuja Rajaraman, also called Rajamaran" and move the article to the proper title. Huon (talk) 22:26, 11 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

The link to the article does not exists and has been pulled down by the agency. I tried finding other reliable sources but failed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2405:204:E208:64FB:3105:DBC6:3148:B5C8 (talk) 07:21, 13 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
