I was wondering if ] should apply to this article. If I am not wrong, the decision to not use the scripts were made because it was unclear which script was actually used / should be used in a particular case and whether the spelling in the Indic script is correct was difficult to verify. However this doesn't appear to be an issue here as the spelling and the script are official and well-known. Thoughts? @], @], @]. ] (]) 13:37, 7 July 2024 (UTC) |

:Well of course it applies to this article, but if it didn't what changes are you proposing?

Minor edit suggestion: Currently the lead reads "It is the seventh-largest country in the world by area and the most populous country.". The latter fact seems by far the more notable of the two, so you'd think "It is the most populous country in the world and the seventh-largest by area" would be a more sensible phrasing. ] (]) 17:56, 31 December 2024 (UTC) |

:And why should we do this? We have ] and no Indic languages in the article for a reason; you'd have to make a very strong case for why we should include these languages, as the past arguments over the translations in different languages are not just about which languages to include, but also the "correct" translation and other issues. ] (]) 21:41, 12 July 2024 (UTC) |

:I've left a post on Flemish Nietzsche's use talk page. Those of us who normally maintain the page have been away for a couple of months. As you must know, editors here discuss even minor changes in the lead for weeks, indeed occasionally even months. Restoring this article to a last consensus version has been done before in the article. The article are majorly rewritten for Gandhi's 150th on 2 October 2019. (See the talk page discussion of the months preceding that date for a comparison with the casual discussions of the last month.) It had an FAR thereafter. It is Misplaced Pages's oldest country FA, soon to be 20 years old. I'm strapped for time.

::I'm well aware why you are restoring to a consensus version, as I cite the same reasons when I have made reverts here in the past; however, as I have said I don't think mass-reverting many good edits is always necessary, as if someone doesn't work back in those good edits, the page quickly becomes out of date, which is what happened the last time you restored to a consensus version, ignoring many (now-archived) discussions where there was, in contrast to the Sanskrit edit discussion above, a proper discussion and consensus to make changes to avoid the page becoming out of date. The reason I reverted your recent edit so quickly was because I wrongly assumed it was a restoration to a much earlier version, (as in, before my and other's edits which updated the page) and any good minor edits since then have been worked back in to the article. ] (]) 11:18, 17 July 2024 (UTC) |

*Thanks for resolving this amiably F&f and Flemmish Nietzsche! Just wanted to drop a quick note since the article is being reverted to (roughly) , that that version itself may need a review and should not be taken to be the version preferred or attested by me. Frankly, as I believe has been discussed previously, the article could use a proper reread to check for drift and need for updates if/when someone has the time to start the process. Cheers. ] (]) 12:17, 17 July 2024 (UTC) |
|
|
*The article already received two ] and the (larger FA) community peer reviewed version is over 13 years old. Yes, we have discussions and consensus establishments over time, but a full fledged review is very imminent. I'd like to propose an '''article review''' soon which can analyse the article in depth and prevent it from the overhanging FAR. Thanks. ] (]) 12:54, 17 July 2024 (UTC) |
|
|
*:Not sure there is any overhanging FAR. |
|
|
*:Two years ago, or thereabouts, when a notice for improvements (to head off an FAR) was given on the talk page, SandyGeorgia said that only a few things needed fixing, and we fixed them. Two paragraphs, climate change and energy, were added by two editors. Around that time an Education section was added by ] and a Visual Arts section by ]. Earlier, in preparation for the article's second TFA on October 2, 2019, I had rewritten the lead, and added two new sections: Cuisine and Clothing. You are probably looking at the talk page milestones not at the discussions. ]] 13:09, 17 July 2024 (UTC) |

*:Article reviews are useless. Who will bell the cat? What is their expertise? Are they MOS-mavens or subject experts? ]] 13:11, 17 July 2024 (UTC) |
|
|
*::With the caveat that I haven't read the article in a long time, I believe that most of it (lede, history, biodiversity, arts) etc should be fine and only need to be checked for changes since the last "stable" version. A couple of sections (eg, Economy, and Politics) may need periodic updates though, while keeping ] in mind. Cheers. ] (]) 13:22, 17 July 2024 (UTC) |

*:In my experience piecemeal improvements are usually better than grand reviews. Speaking of piecemeal, there are some changes that are probably needed: |
|
|
*:*The first ten years of Modi's rule are now widely documented in the scholarly literature: economic growth, infra-structure development, but also back-sliding democracy, crony-capitalism, more assertive religious nationalism, increased economic inequality and rising unemployment. They deserve a distilled mention in the lead perhaps. |
|
|
*:*The excess mortality in India during COVID-19, by far the world's highest (according to the WHO, Lancet, Economist, ...), probably needs a mention, though not necessarily in the lead. |
|
|
*:I think suggestions for changes, supported by scholarly sources (in order to meet ]) and by tertiary sources (for due weight; see ]) are usually better. As you will see from past discussions, even changing a sentence fragment can sometimes take weeks on this page. ]] 13:38, 17 July 2024 (UTC) |
|

*Hello {{re|The Herald}} Rather than an article review, why don't you review one of the sections ] has referred to above, or even a subsection. For example: ]. Would you like to review it? It would be really helpful. Thanks. ]] 14:15, 17 July 2024 (UTC) |
