Citation #34 is not accessible/error in syntax
Some editorial error in citation #34. Either fix that error or remove the section that's supposed to be backed by it. TruthBeforePolity (talk) 14:45, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

Misperception in mention of Article 370 in this page.
The article states The Article 370 of the Constitution that granted a nominally autonomous status to Jammu and Kashmir, is named as one of the reasons for the displacement of the Kashmiri Pandits source given by editor it
- Misrepresentation 1 : Mention of nominally
- Source nowhere says 370 is nominal
- In truth - Article 370 was titled as "Temporary, Transitional and Special Provisions".[1]
Dsnb07 (talk) 02:38, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
- Do you see the Article 370 page being linked? Please go and read that. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 03:38, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
- I humbly request you remove unsourced word nominally. That is the gross misrepresentation of source. Dsnb07 (talk) 03:56, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
- Wikipedia policy WP:Verifiability. And we expect that the editors will have a certain level of competence to check if something is verifiable. Every word and every fact in a complicated history of 70 years cannot be reduced to individual sources. You need to be able to go read stuff and understand.
- In any case, here is a source that uses the exact same terminology [1]. I am not going to engage with you further, while continue to produce endless lists of bad faith arguments and complaints. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 04:11, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

Notes misrepresents data from source given by editor
Notes reads : 89 Hindus were killed by militants between 1990 and 2021, while 1,724 people of other faiths (mainly Muslims) were killed during the same period
Source reads [1]: 89 Kashmiri Pandits, 1,635 people of other faiths were also killed during the same period.
- Misrepresentation 1 : 89 Hindus (Notes) Vs 89 Kashmiri Pandits(Source)
- Notes assume there was no Hindu apart from Kashmiri Pandits.
- Misrepresentation 2 : 1,635 people of other faiths (Notes) vs 1,724 people of other faiths (Source)
- Notes changes numbers.
- Misrepresentation 3 : Notes says (mainly Muslims)
- (Nowhere in source it says mainly Muslims). Also here, other faiths may include Hindus who are not Kashmiri Pandits.

Government support : Really ? NOPV is a Causality here
Now, we have another section apart from Political messaging and historicalaccuracy) which is not adhering to wiki:NOPV.
Let me point out a few things here -
- Oppositions Party support - There are opposition leaders who has supported the Film and asked for tax free status one such example is prime opposition party Congress's senior leader Bhupesh Baghel ( also Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh) Source
- Does tax free means support? - India has long history of making film tax free based various reasons. source 1 2 3 4

Revert - Film Companion
- Please point to the consensus wherein Film Companion was deprecated as a source. (It was spam-blacklisted due to seeding spam and whitelisting requests are routinely allowed. ICTF says,
Individual articles by independently notable critics can be whitelisted.
- Pinkvilla is a reliable source esp. per ICTF. To override a project consensus, you need to use RSN. Your personal preferences are immaterial.
- The unreliability of the particular India Today review has been discussed at talk-page and it is disingenuous to not participate in the discussion but restore it.
- It is ridiculous to claim that RT is an American website and that their bestowal of honors on particular film-critics is immaterial for Indian context. That being said, I am willing to concede as long as the second section starts with Gupta. TrangaBellam (talk) 03:32, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

- Dsnb07, I have allowed you (or any other editor) to remove Gupta's RT qualifier as long as the second section (of largely negative reviews) starts with her. Please do not post the same message at multiple sections. Thanks, TrangaBellam (talk) 06:17, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
- You have imposed your privilege by saying "I have allowed you (or any other editor) to remove Gupta's RT". I thought wikipedia is community just realize you've stacked claim on ownership of wiki. Not a way to build consensus. Sad state of discussion. Dsnb07 (talk) 06:20, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

The plot is based on the events revived utterly on 700 plus video interviews of first generation sufferers of Kashmiri Pandit Genocide.[3][4][5] The film has exhaustive approval.[6] The Kashmiri Pandits sobbed throughout screening, noding analogous faithful portrayal of the genocide on screen happened at no time.[7] Film has housefull encompassing country, promulgate megahit, with twentyfour seven shows, with recurrent audiences.[8] With staggering support from public, government made it tax free in several states.[9] Though, made with modest budget, collections soared manifold.[8] Film has ratified by foreign governments.[3][10] Wherefore, unsubstantiated assertion by paid/vested groups unable to sustain.Thanks.

Leftist Bias?
"but has faced charges of historical revisionism, and of being propaganda aligned with the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), aiming to foster prejudice against Muslims."

Rhode Island in lead
Perhaps the claim about Rhode Island should be attributed? The source repeats Vivek's claim, but the certificate from the Rhode Island House of Representatives he provides as proof does not use "genocide"; it uses "ethnic cleansing". Now, that's a primary source so I'm not suggesting changing what Vivek said, only that it be made clear that Vivek is the one saying that the state of Rhode Island "officially recognised Kashmir Genocide". (I can find no sources that mention Rhode Island's certificate except those quoting Vivek.) Schazjmd (talk) 23:53, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
- I was literally just looking at that. It also looks suspect, as the Rhode Island house of representatives isn't likely to use the wording "Islamic Gangs." Even if it's legit, it's not recognition by the state, it's a citation to an individual by one part of the state government. It also does not say genocide.

- The discussion should focus on improving this article and has to happen on its talk page. Wikipedia is not a WP:FORUM. Also see: WP:OTHERCONTENT. Moreover, repeated WP:OWN assertions are not helping in building a consensus. We need reliable sources on the historical accuracy and messaging of the film. Apart from the problems pointed out by Dsnb07, the current section is predominantly presenting the movie review of a trainee journalist at The Print, as reliable accounts of the events. They should merely be presented as reviewers opining on the accuracy and be properly attributed. The other sources, also movie reviews or references not about the film (see WP:OR), are not scholarly sources of its accuracy. Tariqabjotu and Shahid have pointed out to this effect earlier. Wikihc (talk) 21:49, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
- WP:OWN is biggest issue in building consensus for the page. Dsnb07 (talk) 23:30, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
- I humbly request you to not use offensive words like crappy junk and comply wiki community guideline of good faith.
Even the new links added by Kautilya3 in the writeup, claimed to citations on the accuracy of the film, are from years earlier than the film. They do not talk about accuracy or messaging of this film. Editors using them to make conclusions about messaging and accuracy of the film amounts to WP:OR (see WP:SYNTH). Please remove them.

The film itself uses both Hindu and Pundit. Hindu being super set of group so It makes sense to use Hindu. Dsnb07 (talk) 05:20, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

- Dear Hemantha
- There is a elaborate wiki article which self calls Exodus of Kashmiri Hindus and that's what भास्कर् Bhagawati asked and I quote him -
I asked to change the, "Kashmiri Pandits" to, "Kashmiri Hindus "...
. Also, there was huge discussion on using Kashmiri Hindu for the article. - Thanks Dsnb07 (talk) 01:04, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
- Oh, at the time closed it, there were multiple changes requested. On Pandit->Hindu specifically, both Zee news and India Today use Pandit while in IndiaTV, it's only used in a quote. Reading the Exodus discussion, I have no objection to that specific change, though I won't do it myself as its utility is unclear to me. It'd be better to open a new request with only that particular request, but if you wish to reopen this, please do so. Hemantha (talk) 02:53, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

TrangaBellam (talk) 13:15, 19 March 2022 (UTC)After spending 16 years in jail, Karate was released on bail without conviction. Judge N.D. Wani, while releasing him, remarked that the “allegations levelled against the accused are of serious nature and carry a punishment of death sentence or life imprisonment but the fact is that the prosecution has shown total disinterest in arguing the case.”
Karate is a free man today while his victims have given up on justice.

- What article says :
The central character Krishna Pandit is shown as turning against the present-day prime minister Narendra Modi due to the influence of terrorists
- What cited source says :
it portrays that it is the terrorists who try to provoke Krishna to go against Prime Minister Narendra Modi as well.
- Source cited on Article : The Print
There is a big difference in meaning of between what source says and what article says. Dsnb07 (talk) 08:23, 19 March 2022 (UTC)

Since there is significant Kashmiri also spoken in the film, it should also be added with Hindi — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.237.26.45 (talk) 18:02, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
In fact this addition request should be accepted. There were a lot of local Kashmiri spoken whether it may be slogals raised by the terrorists or normal conversations between people of Kashmir. In the movie, however, English subtitles were provided whenever the Kashmiri was spoken. Shivamtiwari 22 (talk) 21:09, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

Opinionated opening paragraph - portrayed as a genocide
- Thread retitled from "Opinionated opening paragraph".
“The Kashmiri exodus is portrayed as a genocide” Genocide meaning - the deliberate killing of a large number of people from a particular nation or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group A large number of Kashmiri Pandits (an ethnic group) were killed and forced to leave (exodus) their homes during the event in question.

Now some of these wikipedia editors are just being extremely biased. Its ok if you have problems with the film and filmmakers but can these people be a little professional? They just removed all the box office details of the film by saying its not a "financial log". Like seriously doing anything to discredit the films success.. If you look at the box office section of any huge blockbuster Bollywood film like PK or Dangal, its well detailed.
