message: so in the section on history there is this very neutral line :
Muslims have been increasing their population in this district because of polygamy and the tendency to have multiple children among the richer and poorer sections of the society.
so ahem do something about this? this sort of content is alright on one of the "satirical" wikis but wikipedia isn't for rumor mongering right?
also there is a hot water spring that has some religious and historical significance as a sufi saint who is popularly known as "malik baba"is buried there, at the very least it is a popular tourist attraction(even europeans end up there so you know). so that is something that could be talked about.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.3.77.205 (talk) 04:40, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

message: Can you point to any particular wiki guideline which states that a prominent city of the state can't feature in the "Town and cities of state" category, I am talking in the context of edits done by you(user:Thaejas) on the page Biharsharif.

message: I see that there are a number of these "municipal corporation" articles for other Indian cities and I'm not clear on why a distinct, separate article is warranted. For similar concepts I've seen (admittedly primarily US-based) any sort of governing body is not really considered distinct or separate from the city itself and thus the information is typically found in the same article. I am curious to know if there is precedent elsewhere on Wikipedia for this type of distinction. Paradoxsociety 00:01, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi.Municipal Corporation for each city are the civic bodies governing the city. They are headed by Mayor and governed by Commissioners.They themselves have an elaborate history on politics and governance. Hence I feel it is impossible to club a city article and its related Municipal Corporation and Mayor articles. I thank you for your valuable suggestion and feedback. Let me know for any clarification. Gardenkur (talk) 02:20, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks @Gardenkur. I'm seeing a lot of overlapping content across some of the municipal corporation articles, particularly in the "Functions" and "Revenue sources" sections of these pages - for example Vijayawada Municipal Corporation appears to contain nearly-identical information in these sections compared to Bihar Sharif Municipal Corporation. Same thing with Jagdalpur Municipal Corporation and other pages selected from List of municipal corporations in India. It is still very unclear to me whether separate pages are warranted for all of these. Paradoxsociety 08:36, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
