Talk:Unnao gold treasure incident

Dream or fact

This article may be include soon in template: superstitions. Namo says Goverment starts digging after someone dreamt. I think its not the dream what kalam said. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 42.107.175.156 (talk) 05:46, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

Should the place or incident be the subject of this article?

Daundiya Kheda, Uttar Pradesh is still going to be there when Unnao gold treasure incident stops being news. Just my ₹ 0.02. Pete aka --Shirt58 (talk) 10:21, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

It is in worldwide news because of this incident. I was confused what name to give to article. Then found that almost every news source is including 'Unnao gold' or 'Unnao treasure' in headline instead of 'Daundia Khera'. So I chose that title. But I am slowly learning about ancient importance of this village and I think village deserve separate article. Abhi (talk) 16:39, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

Sections: Grouping the info

Sections are created to group relevant info.

• Rao Ram Baksh Singh is part of 'History of Daundia Khera', so I moved info about him in that section.

• The worldwide media coverage started only when ASI actually started digging site on 18 October. Info prior to it should go to 'Background' section.

• I searched news. Not a single news source is using word 'controversy' to stake in treasure by king's descendent. That info should go to 'Development' section.

• 'Excavation' section should be there as all focus is on it. Slowly info would come and it can be added there.

• Lateron 'Reactions' or 'Media coverage' section should be added to group info about reactions of different notable persons and media houses. Abhi (talk) 07:31, 20 October 2013 (UTC)

Cleanup

the lower 3/4 of the article is still full of statements like "He was rich landlord and a gold trader" which are not proper English. I have restored the cleanup tag on this basis. μηδείς (talk) 16:22, 20 October 2013 (UTC)

I have major problem with 'a, an, the'. I will cleanup article after adding some more info. Abhi (talk) 16:46, 20 October 2013 (UTC)

Just reverted your edit. I will look at the grammar, prose as after few days I am going to nominate the article for GA review. Pls don't get restless. Thanks. Abhi (talk) 21:26, 21 October 2013 (UTC)

19th century

This edit is not only bad English, it's garbled synthesis. This article is not about who founded the town. It's being in the text will prevent the DYK nomination from passing. I suggest the editor adding this material do so on the talk page before causing problems with the article. Reverting to prior ungrammatical sentences that have been corrected and removing tags is irresponsible editing. Adding substandard material and telling someone else to fix it is not only against policy--it's rude. μηδείς (talk) 21:30, 21 October 2013 (UTC)

A? I am writing almost whole article. You came, fixed some grammar. I had to rearrange section because I was adding more info. It removed some of your corrections. So you got angry? For the moment, adding content is also important. I won't tolerate removal of contents just to fix missing 'a' or 'the'. You have already tagged article for cleanup and I am not objecting. Article is just 3 days old, I am lone contributor and english is my second language. Initially mistakes are bound to happen. Thanks. Abhi (talk) 21:46, 21 October 2013 (UTC)

First, the article does not belong to you. See Wikipedia:Ownership of articles, which is a policy. Second, simply edit carefully, and add the information you want without reversing the grammar corrections I made and have pointed out to you. (I assume you editted an old version to add what you did, without seeing that I had fixed that section to correct about a dozen bad grammatical errors.) If you simply add new material without deleting the corrections I made, I will gladly check your new edits and fix them to proper English. You will notice that I am not interested in fighting with you about facts--just making the article readable and up to proper standards. The fact that you are writing the article is good and commendable. Please work with others like myself who want to help you improve it too. μηδείς (talk) 22:00, 21 October 2013 (UTC)
