January 2018[edit]

Hello, I'm KNHaw. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Narayan Gopal, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please cite a source. Otherwise, this is an unacceptable, defamatory rumor. KNHaw ^(talk) 18:41, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for reaching out to me about the Narayan Gopal edit. The problem with using https://www.last.fm/music/Narayan+Gopal./+wiki is that we can't use a wiki as a reference, as that could have been edited without any sources either. I know nothing of his music, but a quick check [her | https://thehimalayantimes.com/entertainment/25th-death-anniversary-of-narayan-gopal-being-celebrated/], [here | http://bossnepal.com/interesting-incidents-life-narayan-gopal/], and [here | http://www.weallnepali.com/sahitya-sumana/narayan-gopal-gurubacharya] don't mention drinking at all. [This | http://sangeetsansar.com/2010/05/narayan-gopal.html] appears to be the original source of the phrase "notorious drinking," but it too lacks sources.

The biggest problem, though, is the phrasing "said to have been caused." Please see WP:WEASEL on why this is an issue. Basically, it's a way of throwing out a claim like "notorious drinking" without having any accountability for saying those words.

I did find a [source | http://ecs.com.np/features/the-first-time-i-met-narayan-gopal] that discusses his drinking but doesn't directly say the author believes the drinking killed him (he also discusses smoking in the source). If you'd like I could add something to the effect of "Gopal was urged by friends to quit smoking and drinking in the interests of his health. He quit drinking a few months before he died, but was unable to quit cigarettes." Again, the reader is welcome to make their own conclusions about drinking and death, but it's not appropriate to make that conclusion in the article unless we have a source that is also willing to.

Would you like me to make the edit about his drinking?

Please do not use styles that are unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Uttam Neupane. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Thank you. ☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 18:08, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
