... that once the recent India-Pakistan standoff started de-escalating, the media coverage shifted to deciding who won the perception war? Source: India-Pakistan tensions: Who won the war of perceptions? (Al Jazeera, Indian author) Narendra Modi v Imran Khan: Who won the war of perception?(BBC) India and Pakistan engage in perception war (The Strait Times)
- ALT1:... that fake videos and misinformation caused further escalation between India and Pakistan during the recent standoff? Source: Social media fake news fans tension between India and Pakistan (Reuters) Fake news & misinformation on Indo-Pak tension flood the social media (The Economic Times)
- ALT2:... that war-mongering and misinformation spread by the media may have resulted in a paradoxical de-escalation of the recent India-Pakistan standoff. Indian media trumpeting about Pakistani fake news should look in the mirror first (Quartz India)

QPQ: Barry Sage

Created by DiplomatTesterMan (talk). Self-nominated at 23:18, 16 March 2019 (UTC), co-nom by DBig Xrayᗙ 12:40, 22 March 2019 (UTC) .[reply]

I would like to withdraw this DYK nom due to lack of time in following it up as well as lack of time for a QPQ. Further the article may need to be merged into 2019 India–Pakistan standoff. DiplomatTesterMan (talk) 09:12, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Since, DiplomatTesterMan is on a wikibreak, I will be taking this DYK forward. The article is notable and is a valid WP:CFORK per WP:SIZERULE. DBig Xrayᗙ 12:40, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
added Barry Sage as my QPQ. DBig Xrayᗙ 09:48, 23 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Full review needed, since the nomination is continuing rather than being withdrawn. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:04, 6 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Will do. ∯WBG^converse 17:56, 18 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Full review still needed; it's been over two weeks with no review posted. BlueMoonset (talk) 00:28, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
This is a poorly written article on one of the most volatile areas in the encyclopedia. I remain inclined to work on this article and get rid of the UNDUE stuff. ∯WBG^converse 13:09, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Winged Blades of Godric: Any updates?
The article seems to have neutrality issues from what I can tell, and has not been worked on at all since being nominated for DYK. WBG had offered to work on the nomination but has been unable to respond despite a ping. Considering the issues, this nomination is now being marked for closure.

Protection[edit]

Why was this article protected, what have I missed?Slatersteven (talk) 16:12, 7 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Slatersteven, g'day. I wanted to ask if the protection on this article should stay, or a request should be made to remove it? DTM (talk) 13:03, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As I do not know why it was protected I see no reason to not unprotect it.Slatersteven (talk) 13:05, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

NinjaRobotPirate, I wanted to ask if this article could and should be unprotected/decreased protection? DTM (talk) 13:24, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This topic is under general sanctions. See Wikipedia:General sanctions/India–Pakistan conflict. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 13:30, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
