Edit request

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Manmohan Singh. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

The word 're-elected' should be changed to 're-appointed' in last line of 1st paragraph, as the Prime Minister of India is appointed by the president. Riteze (talk) 09:59, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

Not done: no evidence provided. It shall remain re-elected until further evidence is provided. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk • contribs) 02:25, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

It is mentioned in Constitution of India's article 75(1) on page 34. Riteze (talk) 10:34, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

Request to update Manmohan Singh's infobox picture

The current file on the infobox (the official portrait) is over 21 years of age. This image, File:Prime_Minister_Dr._Manmohan_Singh_in_March_2014.jpg, shows a more recent image. Should we remove the official portrait and replace it with this one? 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk • contribs) 00:17, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

How recent an image is is no longer relevant now that the subject of the article is deceased. Even then, with high office holders like PMs, Presidents, VPs, etc. we use official portraits regardless of how old they are. Look at Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, Kevin Rudd, etc. Look at Mr. Singh's predecessor, Atal Bihari Vajpayee, his official portrait is from 1998 but it captures him during his time in office and is years old.
