Welcome!

[edit]

Reply: Thanks for the welcome, yes, I hope to stay here. I do not see how it violates the NPOV policy, on the contrary, I think my edit removes editorial bias. The article that was cited in the Nidhi Razdan article does not say anything about a scam (it only says so in the edit/update published six months later!). The edit I made simply stated that Nidhi Razdan claimed to have received an offer from Harvard University, and the news article linked literally says "Razdan said she would be taking up a teaching role at Harvard University’s Faculty of Arts & Sciences as associate professor later this year. Razdan had been with the television channel for 21 years." NPOV, from the article, means "representing fairly, proportionately, and, as far as possible, without editorial bias", and straightaway saying Nidhi Razdan was scammed shows editorial bias. Again, Wikipedia is new to me, thanks for the welcome. Nolopassaro99 (talk) 19:04, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I just checked the line I'd edited in the Nidhi Razdan article, the original line said "...she said she was scammed in June 2020", which is patently false. She said she got an offer in June 2020, and only in Jan 2021 did she report that it was a scam. So, my edit not only conforms to NPOV, it also corrects factual errors! It is strange that someone with so much experience editing Wikis could say my edit does not conform to rules or that it was factually problematic.

Original Message: Hello, Nolopassaro99, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, your edit to Nidhi Razdan does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Questions page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Below are a few other good links for newcomers:
