Jail Campaigning vs Allegations of political motives

@SheriffIsInTown How is Jail Campaigning NPOV? He is politically campaigning from jail, that is a fact, simple. Titan2456 (talk) 23:47, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

@Titan2456 He did not campaign from jail; this is a misconception. Instead, his supporters and party members, including Gohar Ali Khan, campaigned for him during the past election, while the campaign for the chancellorship is currently ongoing from outside Pakistan. Additionally, the section heading should accurately reflect the content, which largely consists of allegations regarding the political motivations behind his imprisonment. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 00:41, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

Gohar and his party contested in elections, I am talking about campaigned, Imran Khan is campaigning as chancellor, for democracy, rule of law and certain anti-army viewpoints from jail, that is a fact. The content entirely talks about how Khan is still active in campaigning from jail. Campaigning is used in the term of being politically active, which the section solely talks about. Titan2456 (talk) 01:24, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

Avoid making general statements; he did not actively campaign for anything. Please specify from the sources how he engaged in campaigning or promoted his candidacy. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 01:50, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

Campaign Definition: an organized course of action to achieve a goal. Imran Khan has been campaigning for rule of law and democracy, that is what campaign means, all the statements he gives, the rallies he organizes, the interviews, he is campaigning. Titan2456 (talk) 01:54, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

These are your claims; he did not campaign for anything. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 03:12, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

This is WP:IDHT I just gave you the definition of campaign. Read here: https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/how-imran-khan-is-campaigning-jail-pakistan-ai-covert-canvassing-2024-02-05/ Its Reuters, not an opinion piece like the one you cited. Titan2456 (talk) 11:34, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

Also, why did you cite an opinion piece and use NPOV language when you corrected my NPOV language previously? Titan2456 (talk) 01:31, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

Once more, this is a general assertion. Please specify particular issues, and I will respond accordingly. The opinion piece reflects Imran Khan’s views and statements he has actually made. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 01:52, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

You cannot use an opinion piece as a citation, that is the bottom line for Misplaced Pages. If you want to, write that it is an opinion piece and write that all the info is sourced from that. Titan2456 (talk) 01:55, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

In fact, I have already corrected it, why are you citing an opinion piece as information in the first place though? Titan2456 (talk) 01:56, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

You did not make corrections; instead, you reverted the streamlined version of the content entirely, which I do not agree with. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 03:09, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

What do you mean streamlines you literally removed all indication that its an opinion piece? Also why did you select the most negative anti-Imran Khan one, there are so many more like these, can they be used according to you?

https://zeteo.com/p/why-imran-khan-should-be-the-next Titan2456 (talk) 11:36, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

Have you double-checked your revert diff? You didn’t just restore the attribution—you reverted the streamlined version. Your question about choosing the most negative perspective is illogical. Why do you consistently choose the most positive angles for PTI and Imran Khan and never balance it with contrary views to maintain neutrality? I am simply correcting the one-sided narrative, which came across as a chancellorship campaign, portraying him as suffering and still fighting and campaigning from jail. Why didn’t you include the opposing perspective from the start so I wouldn’t have had to step in? Why do you always behave as if you’re working for them? Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 13:12, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

If you believe that source cannot be used, you can bring it to WP:RSN. I’m quite sure we can use it. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 03:11, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
