Talk:K. K. Aggarwal

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Page may be purposely made to add value to scam site[edit]

There are several problems with this page, as it paints a criminal in a favourable light. I move that this page be deleted, as I suspect that the page has been made to legitimise fraudulent operations such as:

http://ijrcm.org.in/commerce/chief-patron.php Which has appeared on Beall's list, and is discussed here: http://scholarlyoa.com/2013/04/09/the-epitome-of-predatory-publishers/#more-1525

In any case, the page is very one-sided, and clearly erroneous. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.185.195.80 (talk) 20:34, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Some objectionable content on Wiki[edit]

Content "Aggarwal was the "Chief Patron" of academic publisher International Journal of Research in Commerce & Management, which has been described as a predatory publisher." seems objectionable. Please refer the followed link: https://ijrcm.org.in/commerce/chief-patron.php He is not a chief patron of IJRCM. Kindly remove the only the above mentioned content from the Professor K K Aggarwal's Profile. Jeffrey Beall have stopped writing blog since 2017. i.e. 3. "Jeffrey Beall on IJCRM". Archived from the original on 6 April 2015. Retrieved 3 April 2015.

"Is" ≠ "was". And the fact that Beall was pressured by another predatory publisher to stop in 2017 doesn't change what he said in 2015. —David Eppstein (talk) 16:06, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Beall is/was a recognised expert. - Sitush (talk) 18:42, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
True. On the other hand, now that we're discussing this rather than just edit-warring to remove sourced information, I'm inclined to remove it. My reason is not so much the reliability of Beall, but that we have too little context to make this a useful contribution to the article. Was Aggarwal someone who helped create and profit from the journal, someone who was merely willingly listed on the masthead but had no actual role with it, or an unwilling dupe of the journal (as many notable people listed by predatory journals are)? Do we even have enough evidence to conclude with certainty that the K. K. Aggarwal listed by the journal is the same person as the one this article is about? Without sources that could answer these questions and put the claim into context, I think we're better off not mentioning it. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:50, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Per WP:BLPSPS, "Never use self-published sources—including but not limited to books, zines, websites, blogs, and tweets—as sources of material about a living person, unless written or published by the subject of the article." In BLPs, there is no exception for experts. As such, the source is insufficient, and I am deleting it. --Nat Gertler (talk) 21:26, 13 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
