Inaccuracies on sexual harassment allegations

If you're editing this page further, please note my edits on the current status of sexual harassment allegations against Subodh Gupta. Previous versions of this article (from 2019) held an inaccurate version of the events (re: potential sensationalism tag). The case has progressed considerably since 2019; the anonymous accuser withdrew the allegation, apologised and the case that Subodh Gupta filed against the anonymous Instagram handle was dropped.

Also: if you're editing this page, do consider what the proper placement of harassment allegations that have since been disproven should be: at the moment, the sexual harassment allegation paragraph's placement makes it appear like the most important thing about him. I'm not sure how similar revisions have been handled, but would appreciate help if anyone's watching this. --Iamnemonic (talk) 17:46, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It should be trimmed back to a minimal mention of the incident. --Hipal/Ronz (talk) 17:58, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I will do this, thanks for the guidance. Iamnemonic (talk) 18:54, 5 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've extensively changed this page; can we remove the tags?

Posting here to get some feedback on whether the tags on this page should be removed. Many of the tags were justified; this was a badly written, grammatically incorrect, shoddily cited article. I have improved it, expanded it and deepened it considerably. I have also added (negative) criticism of the artist's work, which was missing earlier, leading me to believe that some of the tags were completely justified. If a more experienced editor feels the tags may be removed, please do so. Otherwise, perhaps, with some time to consider this, I could do so myself.Iamnemonic (talk) 19:48, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Further to the message above, I am listing the tags I removed on this article with an explanation of how they were addressed and resolved. (1) Additional citations - added (the article has 15+ new citations from reliable sources (2) COI - the article did read like a résumé which was problematic; while not aware of previous editors' COI, edits were made to include more up-to-date biographical information as well as critical appreciations of the artist's work (3) Article reads like a press release or quotes sensationalist coverage - this too appears to have been true for the previous versions of the article, but as per the point before, extensive edits were made to keep to the most significant and relevant facts so I believe this has been addressed (4) Article reads like a résumé - this has been addressed.

If another editor disagrees with this assessment, please reinstate any tags you feel are justified with an explanation as to why on this talk page, so that those editing this page can help resolve them. Iamnemonic (talk) 12:26, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
