Foreign Direct Investment in India[edit]

Created by Human3015 (talk). Self-nominated at 07:39, 10 October 2015 (UTC).

  • Hook is interesting and well referenced. The article is large enough and well referenced. No Copyvio was detected. However, the hook, would better point to the Financial Times. As I understood, this hook is only supported by FT. By the way, edit the lead section so that the hook is supported by the relevant Ref. At the moment, 6 refs are just pasted there. Let the readers know which ref is supporting which sentence(s). Mhhossein (talk) 05:50, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
@Mhhossein: Thanks for your review, I have edited refs, there are 4 refs for hook. Primary report is of Financial Times and reference of FT has been given. 3 secondary references like Time magazine, Times of India and NDTV are also provided discussing report of FT. If anything more improvement is needed, let me know. Or if needed we can add attribution to hook "According to Financial Times". --Human3015TALK  06:17, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
@Mhhossein: How about ALT1?--Human3015TALK  06:45, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
That's it. ALT1 is interesting, accurate and well cited. Good to go. Mhhossein (talk) 06:49, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
  • The article is leaning on recentism. It mentions 1999 opening of markets in lead and that's all the history that's covered. The article seems incomplete. Also, the four sectors mentioned give the impression that only these four sections have FDIs allowed. Such generic topics need more aspects to be covered. Also have added few maintenance tags. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 11:42, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
@Dharmadhyaksha: Anyway, adding more sectors, you can help. --Human3015TALK  17:10, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
None of what Dharmadhyaksha mentioned, although were worthy of attention, had nothing to do with DYK criteria and the DYK process for this article won't be stopped by them. You can address those problems thorough the article talk page. However, let's see what BlueMoonset thinks about it. Mhhossein (talk) 18:05, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
Actually this article can be extended at any length, there are 25-30 sectors in which India gets FDI, one can make subsection on each sector and can write 2-4 paras on each. There are 25-50 nations who invest in India, whole details can be written on this, as far as history is concerned, history of FDI since independence of India or even before that can be written. So this article can become as long as we want. But this much iprovement may takes week, so I nominated it within time because it was having 1500 characters and was summarizinf thigngs. Article already says FDI norms in 25 sectors have been relaxed. Points of Dharmadhyaksha are good as fae as improvement in article is concerned. But it will take time. I have to do some economic research for that. I will improve article. If we follow Dharmadhyakshas advice then article can even get GA status. But I think article serves DYK purpose. Still I will improve article as much as possible till it gets promoted. For example you can see my sandbox, User talk:Human3015/sandbox, I have prepared chart, does that chet is encyclopedic or not? Can I include that in article? --Human3015TALK  19:09, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
Human3015: As I said above, there's no need to expand the article for the DYK to be passed and the current state (size & content) of the article is acceptable. However, you're suggested to expand it whenever you find reliable materials about the subject. Mhhossein (talk) 13:20, 16 October 2015 (UTC)
Thanks Mhhossein for guidance, I was also thinking that article has enough length and info for the subject. I'm relatively new at DYK arena, have 2 DYK credits (both of them got within last one week including today's). So suggestions and support from people like you are always helpful and encouraging. --Human3015TALK  18:10, 16 October 2015 (UTC)
  • The article has undergone further expansions and it's containing more items now. No copvios were detected as before. The article is large and new enough and no problem is seen. ALT1 do exists in the source cited immediately after the hook sentence in the article. Good to go! Mhhossein (talk) 04:29, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
