New section seems to be a defamation

The complete Pakistani community in Britain is the subject of this article. Since the crimes of one individual cannot be used to denigrate the entire community, start a new section by engaging in discussion on the talk page so that this content can be added with everyone's approval.  𝘚𝘢𝘯𝘦𝘮𝘈𝘺𝘩𝘢𝘯07   04:07, 3 April 2023 (UTC)

It says Home Secretary said that, and it is true that she said that, if defamation is your worry file a case against her. Moreover she doesn't said all british pakistani are involved in grooming gangs. She just said that all those involved in gooming gangs are "almost all british pakistani".

It's a violation of WP:NPOV to include Braverman's claims without including sources that have established that she's wrong on the statistics, e.g. this. Cordless Larry (talk) 12:55, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

@Cordless Larry Add her statement as well as information from the sources you mentioned. Add everyone's point of view, we are not sitting here to decide who is correct or who is wrong. AbhishekSaini1910 (talk) 15:06, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

This is a volunteer project, AbhishekSaini1910; please don't tell me what to do. Cordless Larry (talk) 16:42, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

I wasn't ordering you to do it, i was just giving opinion what should be done. I forgot to write "we should" in starting pf my comment. AbhishekSaini1910 (talk) 22:17, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

Home Secretary Suella Braverman said that the perpetrators of such crimes are “groups of men, almost all British Pakistani”. To the BBC she said the gangs were "overwhelmingly" made up of British-Pakistani males. British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has vowed to do whatever it takes to root out grooming gangs and put more perpetrators behind bars. The UK PM announced a new Grooming Gangs Taskforce to tackle the menace.

I've reverted your attempt to re-add this material, Colormaxxing, after it was previously reverted by another editor. You now need to follow WP:BRD and make the case for the addition here on the talk page. I also asked for input at Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Medicine#Medical claim at British Pakistanis. One of the major problems seems to be that you're extrapolating from a small study limited to Southern Derbyshire to the whole British Pakistani population. Cordless Larry (talk) 20:08, 17 May 2023 (UTC)

NB: Colormaxxing has since been blocked as a sockpuppet. Cordless Larry (talk) 07:10, 22 May 2023 (UTC)

British Airways image

I do not think it is neccessary to mention Imran Khan's happiness of British Airways returning. It had nothing to do with the rest of the paragraphs. 2A04:4A43:54DF:CC11:0:0:12A7:EF81 (talk) 13:15, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
