"Today, it is an integral part of The Republic of India." Is this NPOV? -- user:zanimum

[edit] Picture legend

Question to Markalexander100: are you sure this photograph is taken from the Royal palace (as said) and not from the Gompa that is higher on that mountain? Because on the right, taht big squared building seems to be the Royal Palace...

No, I couldn't swear to it. But it's definitely somewhere on Namgyal hill, so I've changed it to that. ;) Mark1 03:06, 25 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Christian population

I hope to know why Bharatreever felt that the paragraph he removed on the Christians in Leh think it is unnotable and POV. On the contrary, the article Ladakh gave details about the Christian population in detail.

For more information, please see the article's history's summary. Thanks. Mr Tan 04:31, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

I had explained my edits clearly on your talk page .Once again I will copy it for you here.

AFAIK,24 + 6 families of any religion is not notable enough to be included in an encyclpedic article.Bharatveer 09:52, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Mr.tan, pls dont try to confuse the issue. The article in question is Leh.So your assertions in this case are wrong. I am sure 24 families will not form 2 % of the leh's population. Bharatveer 13:26, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
Mr,Tan Pls note that WP:N is for creation of articles and not for inclusion of POV sentences in an article. For Your Information, See Population_figures.Christians form only 0.23%. Bharatveer 04:33, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
I think i have explained my reasons very cearly. Mention of 24 + 6 families is clearly a POV (when they form only 0.23%)which is already mentioned . Your arguments that they form the High castes looks laughable.Bharatveer 09:21, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

I think you will understand my reasons for the edits now.Bharatveer 09:26, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

One reason why it's worth mentioning is the fact that it is remarkable. Taking into account that this is one of the most isolated regions in the world, I think one reason this is interesting is because it shows how deep missionary activities had penetrated during the colonial period. I agree, though, that presence of 10 Buddhist families in the Antofagasta Region will be much more noteworthy. I can understand why you might raise questions about notability, but where's the POV? deeptrivia (talk) 03:10, 29 August 2006 (UTC)


[edit] npov

"christian missionaries steal bhuddist children and convert them" - rephrased. I think this is pov, it is unlikely that children are "stolen". If that was true, can someone verify it?82.152.205.124 22:35, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

sorry, i clarify. I see there has been an edit war. I don't deny this is relevant, I just think it could be re-phrased - unless someone can prove it is true. It seems like a rash claim.82.152.205.124 22:38, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
