My RSN thread
Sorry, I can't reply you and User:Itsmejudith there on RSN as the thread has exceeded my edit box limit. It is my mistake that I didn't post links for my sources in RSN itself for easy access. For the sake of chronology I searched sources from 2002 to 2013. UN, HRW, US etc sources published in 2011, 2012, 2013 still talk about muslim involvement. The gang is not telling me which sources are primary or unusable because they know I have recent sources and I can bring more. Their tactics is to run around trees to frustrate me. (2) Academic books are good but not every user has access to library in real life and also google books doesn't work on some browser. The gang is using academic sources for their side. I don't have access to any academic book. As I (and some users on wikiproject India) can tell other side only through web sources, they try to discredit ALL web sources. And other users also say that academic sources are better, and as users like me don't have access to academic books hence article end up showing only only one side of story. This is the trick of the gang. And combined with 'academic sources' insistence, when gang is pushing POV, it becomes almost impossible for other users to balance the side. Thank you. neo (talk) 18:59, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
- A problem that has no real solution is that academic books and articles are often the best sources, yet they are often difficult to obtain. Basically, you need to trust the people who do have access to those academic sources. You can always come to RSN to ask "is this source represented correctly". There is also the resource exchange. Official sources post 2011 are likely to be reliable for that article. Bring individual cases to RSN. Itsmejudith (talk) 20:08, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
- I agree with Itsmejudith. If you do not have access to the best current sources, then it is usually not possible to know if they are being presented consistently with policy. While you may question them on talk pages or noticeboards, the people most likely to reply are those who were responsible for developing the articles.
- Even if you find sources that help show an article is biased, you need to persuade editors not already involved in editing the article to participate. In the case of 2002 Gujarat violence that may be difficult because few people who are neutral on the topic would have any knowledge or interest in the story.
- On the other hand, it may be that the article accurately reflects sources, but the scholarship is biased. In that case there is little you can do, since articles are supposed to give greatest weight to majority views.
