Material on resignation[edit]
Advani has not stated anywhere that his decision to step down was related to Narendra Modi's elevation. That is clearly speculation by the journalist and does not have sufficient weight to be included on a biography of a living person. — Nearly Headless Nick {c} 18:51, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
- Agreed. Indian 'journalism' obviously plays second-fiddle to BLP here.Pectoretalk 06:06, 17 June 2013 (UTC)
OR tag[edit]
I just tagged the "Rise of the BJP"section for OR, because it contains statements about the discontent with the congress and such that have no citations. Vanamonde93 (talk) 11:35, 5 December 2013 (UTC)
Statue of Patel[edit]
Is the fact that Advani inaugurated the statue of Patel really necessary? Okay, it is a tall statue, but why is that important to this man's bio? If I do not see a reasonable explanation, I propose to delete said section. Vanamonde93 (talk) 00:06, 10 January 2014 (UTC)
Pictures[edit]
Ronanin, we really don't need that many pictures of Advani and various dignitaries. Could you please explain your rationale for adding as many as you have? Vanamonde93 (talk) 19:43, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
- Ronanin, Precisely why are you ignoring this message? You've edited this page after I posted this. Vanamonde93 (talk) 03:37, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
Controversies[edit]
Surely there should be a section related to controversies? Advani is well known to have been implicated in the babri masjid demolition and this page completely avoids this.
- It is in the Rise of BJP section, but it needs more coverage. Please feel free to expand. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 17:05, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
