Jasprit Bumrah copyedit

Hi, I'm Vkwiki100. I noticed that you added a copyedit tag on the Jasprit Bumrah article, and as I've written most of the article, I'm willing to address the issue. I am relatively new to Wikipedia, having been here for about a year, so I'm still learning. It would be nice if you could guide me to the specific part of the article you felt was written in a tabloid style or was unnecessary. I would then correct it. VK wiki100 16:11, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

@Vkwiki100: You mean you have recently expanded it? Yes, some of the parts added are unnecessary and too detailed, hence unencyclopedic. For example, in the para below is unnecessary and should be removed, including the quote part. -

Bumrah grew up in a colony of apartment blocks called Goyal Intercity, where he used to play on the concrete floor of the car parking area with his neighborhood friends. He used to imitate the bowling action of great bowlers like Makhaya Ntini, Brett Lee, and Shahid Afridi. He aimed for the floor skirting because he discovered that the ball made the least sound when it hit the skirting, so as not to disturb his mom during her afternoon nap.[8][9]

Kishore Trivedi is not a notable person.

Bumrah was 14 years old when he approached his mom with the request to become a cricketer. Initially surprised by Bumrah's request and saying no, Daljit later relented when Bumrah convinced her. She then asked Kishore Trivedi, father of former Gujarat and Rajasthan Royals fast bowler Siddharth Trivedi, to enroll Bumrah in his academy. This marked the beginning of Bumrah’s cricket journey.[6][10]

When I saw him in the nets for the first time, he troubled the batters with pace generated by his quick arm action and short run-up. I watched him bowl for about 10 minutes and was convinced that if we could guide him well, he had the talent to go far. — Trivedi, commenting on seeing Bumrah play for the first time in nets.[10]

Trivedi advised Bumrah not to change his action. Consistently reaching 140 km/h, he became a local cricket sensation, causing rival batters to be afraid of his bowling whenever Nirman’s team played.[10] Daljit made an appearance in the 2019 Netflix documentary Cricket Fever: Mumbai Indians, where she expressed her emotions on the cricketing success of her son.[11][12]

There are other similar chunks in the article. I'd suggest you try yo make it more objective instead of subjective/tabloidy. Also keep the tag, even if you are done with trimming, since there are editors particularly devoted to copyediting. Second opinion will be useful. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 17:43, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

Yes, I meant that I recently expanded it. I trimmed it as you mentioned, and I'm not removing the tag. VK wiki100 03:11, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

@Vkwiki100: Thanks. Appreciate your efforts in the article. Keep up the good work. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 10:04, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

Note on personal relations and closeness of leaders

You have said that closeness between leaders is a trivial thing. It is being prayed that wWhat you state is certainly incorrect. Relationships between leaders of importance do count a lot. It is a known historical fact that personal relations have changed the course of history on umpteen occasions.

Closeness and Interpersonal relations between people of influence is never a personal matter but it has huge political and social overtones.

This is not a new thing that I am stating, but is a well-known fact.

If you are not convinced, then I can cite any number of examples of personal relations between leaders with huge political, social and historical relevance.

I shall wait for your response in this regards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Goodwikie (talk • contribs) 01:47, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

@Goodwikie: Yeah it is trivial and WP:NOTNEWS applies, when you mention that certain political people have closeness. Unless they do something of significance together, that's unimportant. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 10:34, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Suspected socks

Hi! Have a look at all of today's edits done in Shaphee Lanphee. Are they possible to be socks or meats? Haoreima (talk) 10:48, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

@Haoreima: This IP from Delhi seems to be one of those anti-Meitei ones that crept up during the initial days of the riots working up in the Meitei and related articles. This one is funny, countering the IP. This and this might be our guy. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 11:32, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

Dwarka

I don’t care if he has credentials, see [1]. It’s nonsense. Doug Weller talk 20:23, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

@Doug Weller: My bad. I did some maintenance fixes, didn't even check it. Feel free to remove it. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 20:39, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

Ok, in bed now on iPad but I guess I should now. Doug Weller talk 21:46, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

Look in to this matter

Hi ! @Fylindfotberserk , kindly look into this case of sock puppetry by one of the previous banned user. I am adding you as you are the main patroller on caste related pages. I just reverted them to their stable version and also opened the sockpuppet investigation but I think the check users or admins don't see my case so I am adding you this.

Recent edit summaries

Your recent edit summaries are very disturbing, especially for such an experienced user. Please do not cast aspersions on other users and remember to assume good faith at least without direct, hard evidence of nefarious intentions. 331dot (talk) 10:53, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

@331dot: Which one? You have to see what that IP-troll is doing to me, Hindus and India. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 10:55, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

Ones like this("Same to you Anti-Indian Anti-Hindu casteist attention seeker on an agenda") I don't know if you are familiar with the expression "you should not fight fire with fire"- inappropriate behavior or words should not be returned in kind. Again, if you have actual evidence of nefarious intentions or motivations beyond your assumptions, that should be taken to the appropriate notice board(you have already made reports of vandalism). 331dot (talk) 11:00, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

@331dot: This guy has been doing this on and off since 2020. Here he says there should be a genocide of Brahmins, by the "Katuas" (slang for Muslims). Check This one also. I can put a list of abuses hurled at me, India, Hindus, Brahmins. While I'll ignore those directed towards me only (which typically starts with "mother f-word", "illegitimate ..."), but when they disrupt Wikipedia and abuse our gods (calls Rama) and Prophet Muhammad names; and our country, I may retaliate, once in while, with a "same to you", or "you are an Anti-Indian Anti-Hindu vandal". I dunno, but it seems very easy to circumvent IP range blocking, he himself said that here (Google translate it if necessary), and immediately started with this range. I feel like IPs should only be allowed to edit articles below C-class.

This is a sock of Fox931711, and may well be a sock of this older ID, opened a case yesterday. Please see. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 11:14, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

Aside from the fact that other editors(like me) see your edit summaries, summaries like that usually just make the target take more of a personal interest in annoying you and/or continuing their inappropriate actions. See WP:DENY. My suggestion would be to tone down the edit summaries in this case and just revert and report. 331dot (talk) 11:20, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

@331dot: Yeah, you are right. But this person is after me since 2019-2020, most likely wouldn't stop, I'm not sure why, but they keep on digging up and reverting my edits. Could you revdel those edits and delete the edit summaries [2] [3]? They being a nuisance in commons also [4] [5]. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 11:38, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

It appears that they have all been revdeleted. 331dot (talk) 12:17, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

@331dot: Nice. Thanks. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 12:20, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

Reverting edit

Hi, i am @Aurjansan, it is about your recent revert of my recent edit on Khatri by saying that i removed a source where Zafar Khan's father is described to be a Jat and add information without source.

Firstly the removed source is just an empty source where no mention of Zafar khan and his father.

Secondly that information( name and sentence meaning correction) was edited via ciction which were already mentioned in paragraph. Aurjansan (talk) 18:31, 29 March 2024 (UTC)

@Aurjansan: Zafar Khan's father being a Jat is explicitly mentioned in the source. See here, highlighted in yellow. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 18:53, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
