Talk:Raj Thackeray

message: Raj ji did so many good things and  many people are talking about negative things but not about his vision. some people only opposing him by not knowing fats. First check reality and support his vision for better Maharshtra..better India..
This biography has a heavy negative bias. A more neutral point of view is required. It may be required to completely rewrite this article.

I think this one belongs to Raj himself, because he doesn't have crowds of rioters in the streets over this yet.
When he does lead a mob to tear down Bollywood then it would be suitable for the MNS article, right?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hcobb (talk • contribs) 14:38, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

message: I am wondering why this was removed. I dont know much about Merinews. Is it because it is an unreliable source? Ironically, that was the only positive information about him. Docku: What up? 22:00, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it was written in a very bad style and so removed by KHP2. As of the news here is a reliable source. But the information should go into MNS article and not here. --GPPande talk! 22:16, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: wow. you could include image of protest here but not word of praise. Docku: What up? 22:23, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Right. Reason being - blood donation was done by MNS supporters and so should go into the MNS article. Had Raj himself done it then it would go into the bio article. --GPPande talk! 22:28, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: But you wouldnt mind adding a protest image by a group of guys against terrorism not commited by him? I guess I will post it in WP:BLP/N. Docku: What up? 22:39, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Thanks GPP. I never doubted your intentions and apologise if that is how it came across. apparently, he hasnt done much. Docku: What up? 16:16, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: No problem and no apologies needed. I think the article needs a thorough copy-edit before more objections are raised. --GPPande talk! 16:23, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

text: Sounds reasonable to me. I didnt know that info about merinews. Docku: What up? 18:41, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: We already have a GA for it. See 2008 attacks on North Indians in Maharashtra. Only relevant information from this GA article that suits this bio article should be here. --GPPande talk! 19:15, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Details and references can be curtailed as the section will be linked to the main article. I will work on it whenever i get time, pls do so as well. Thanks. Docku: What up? 20:05, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  attack on North Indians 

message: well, the case was dismissed as suicide. clearly, he is not involved in the case (as per CBI), but is nevertheless a controversy. Accusation and charges of crimes against political enemies in India is a way of life and not uncommon, listing such unproven and dismissed accusations unless it had received extraordinary public attention and besmirched his reputation in that process is WP:UNDUE.

thread_title:  removed the flag 

message: has uploaded a photo of Raj (mostly from MNS website). User has mentioned fair use rational in crude form (which can fixed, no issues). In all probability it would be deleted by some hawk looking for such images to be eaten out. If we can use the similar rational as can be seen on :File:Natalee_Holloway_yearbook_photo.jpg it can be saved. I think this article, MNS article and the GA article needs this image badly.

message: Although the above topic is referanced, it is not required over here. It should be in MNS' article, since Raj himself didn't attacked Azmi in Parliament. It was the MLAs of MNS. Hope it is alright. Rahul Bobhate (talk) 18:36, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: Removing MLA attacked in Maharashtra State Assembly

message: Mumbai is the official and more widely use name (it is the title of the main WP article; also, search results for "Bombay" mostly turn up references to the High Court, Stock Exchange or IIT). Thus, in the article, "Mumbai" should be used everywhere except in context of the Mumbai-Bombay controversy. I request editors not to find->replace any name as it affects reference URLs.

thread_title:  Update Birthdate 

message: This article has way too many subsections detailing each and every event associated with him. The criticism section is even worse. For example, I don't see how "Support for Modi" deserves a mention or even a separate subsection here. At most, that should go to some 2014 election-related article, or made into just a single statement. I otherwise don't see how this belongs to this biography.
This article needs to be rewritten and organised better, at most I can think of just three main sections. There also a lot of content which can be trimmed since it's WP:UNDUE and WP:RECENT. -Ugog Nizdast (talk) 19:19, 20 April 2014 (UTC)
