Request for move this article

The term Nepalis is a plural of Nepali which is disambiguos referring to many subjects such as Nepali language, Nepali people, Nepali nationality law, etc. The defination given in Nepalis article indicates Indo-Aryan people who are the native speakers of Nepali language in India, Nepal, Bhutan and Burma and the citizens of other nations. Bhasi in Nepali language refers to Speakers of certain language to that of Nepali bhasi referring to speaker of Nepali language. Thus, to eradicate conflict of terms, this article should be moved to its correct title. Thank You! (The China Room (talk) 08:25, 22 September 2016 (UTC))

User:The China Room, first we need to be clear on what exactly the topic of this article is. The Nepali people redirects here, but the Nepali people are in no way restricted to Indo-Aryan languages, and especially not just the three mentioned in the infobox. So what is this article about? The people who live in or identify with Nepal? People who speak the Nepali language? Until we have a clear answer to this, there really is no article to rename, or for that matter, even bother editing. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 04:04, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

POV problems

Article as written is weirdly POV, a sort of POV propaganda assertion that Nepal is a country in which ethnicity is irrelevant. In fact, it is about 80% Hindu and has the sort of ethnic diversity most countries do. Article needs a complete rewrite to meet WP standards.E.M.Gregory (talk) 14:13, 10 February 2018 (UTC)
