Freedom of Religion

Dear QuartzReload,

The previous article had discussions about the History of Freedom of religion presumably ancient and archaic laws. Those are not statutory and completely irrelevant . Look at the title for a start.

It also had multiple laws passed by State govts. I do not know why, the list was neither comprehensive nor informative. Why would you need such a list?

I have reoriented the article to give as little biased information as possible. It isn't wikipedia's job to be a compendium of laws.

The article wasn't cohesive, it used multiple tenses. I have also changed that.

I'm willing to listen to your argumnents about how it was better before but I do not appreciate the revert you made; I'm not a bot.

@Nanasid: The topic is Freedom of religion in India, not "Current statutory laws on freedom of religion in India". History, traditions, and notable cases are all relevant. --NeilN ^{talk to me} 20:04, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

@Nanasid: Hi there, I am sorry that you feel my edit was incorrect. As said by User:NeilN, the information you deleted could quite easily be deemed as relevant. I distinctly agree reading the diffs of your edit and not having much of a problem with them, in fact I did consider them to be improvements in some cases, but then I saw that a large amount of content had been blanked in its place. Would you consider reintegrating the content into the article whilst keeping the other sections? And @NeilN: would you agree to this solution? Thank you. QuartzReload (talk) 20:29, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

Unfortunately, I think this version has little to offer (sorry). Only the first sentence (already existing) and last paragraph (using already existing sources) are properly sourced. --NeilN ^{talk to me} 20:38, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

@NeilN: No problem, I was trying to find a solution to fit all. I have now seen your recommendation for user:Nanasid to try and get consensus through the talk page. I now personally believe that that will be the best solution for this matter as it will allow more people to have a say on this matter (as you said, it is a large removal). @Nanasid: That can be achieved through the talk page (linked here)

user:NeilN I don't follow. India has existed only for a few decades now. Furthermore the history cited is neither comprehensive nor unbiased. I don't understand what you mean by notable cases, perhaps you mean successful court petitions. There haven't been any which disallow the practice of religion in any form. I also don't know what this blanked is.

I removed most of the content because much of it isn't necessary and much was improperly cited. There is a citation about a news report printed on website which curates Religious News. This can't be treated as a reliable source, the original news article must be cited.

I believe Wikipedia is an encyclopedia not a collection of random facts strung together. For instance going into gory detail about hate crimes is unnecessary. How does it even relate to Freedom of Religion? I've yet to meet anybody who's low key about their faith in India.

What you seem to have in mind is a history article. There isn't a problem with that, except the article right now has no comprehensive account of Indian history. India isn't just Ashoka and Mughals. Such a topic is too broad and nuanced and merits a book by itself. Nanasid (talk) 21:54, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

I've replied to the post you've made on the talk page. --NeilN ^{talk to me} 23:37, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

Tenodera aridifolia

I took out most of the information because it may be for another species. I have read that Tenodera sinensis is in Japan here:https://insects.tamu.edu/research/collection/hallan/Arthropoda/Insects/Mantodea/Family/Mantidae.txt. Tenodera airidifolia sinensis is now Tenodera sinensis so that might be why I read that Tenodera aridifolia live in Japan. Now Tenodera aridifolia may somewhere else. Tenodera aridifolia brevicollis I read lives in China. It would be strange if there are three species of Tenodera in Japan because I have not read anything about that. But maybe that is wrong that Tenodera sinensis lives in Japan. I will have to find information on what the Tenodera aridifolia look like (I have read somewhere that they are more slender than Tenodera sinensis).Happy1892 (talk) 02:42, 26 June 2014 (UTC)Happy1892Happy1892 (talk) 02:42, 26 June 2014 (UTC) Unfortunately I cannot get many of the articles I was told has information about these mantids such as ensen, D., G.

Rollback

Hi QuartzReload. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Biblioworm 06:49, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

Ichneumonoidea Discussion

QuartzReload should have read the changes to Ichneumonoidea 12/8. the previous edition was factually incorrect and misleading due to a dangling participle, failure to use proper nouns, and the improper use of case of plural when the singular should be used. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ralphroug (talk • contribs) 09:53, 10 December 2015 (UTC)
