[edit]Hi Shubharm2019,
Noticed the talk page of OpIndia where you have posted a note saying the Wikipedia write up on OpIndia is biased. I quite agree with you.
It's interesting that IFCN's denial of membership stems from the fact that OpIndia does not entertain left liberal views. [1]
The fact that IFCN rejects OpIndia's membership application because it prefers to focus on right leaning views is a complete different thing from the ability to objectively assess if the right leaning fact is correctly presented. If anything it brings out a possible bias of IFCN.
Stated another way an organization that focuses on Cricket as a sport may be biased to it, but to be denied IFCN membership because it may not report Soccer facts accurately is quite controversial. One's bias and one's objectivity may be two different things.
Infact Wikipedia's own policy on Reliable Sources under the heading of Biased Sources acknowledges this, that biased sources need not be inaccurate. The bias may be a focus on a certain topic and need not mean its being presented incorrectly. [2]
Hence the Wikipedia lead section to the OpIndia page that has a single line which disparages a good organization, '...and has propagated fake news over multiple occasions.[3]' is incorrect, malicious and needs a correction.
A number of other reputed media outlets including the BBC could have been factually incorrect. Why should such an observation not be made of them then?
Look forward to hearing your thoughts. Will post this on the OpIndia Wiki Talk page too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2402:3a80:166c:b930:28cb:1e47:7d28:b45e (talk • contribs) — 2402:3a80:166c:b930:28cb:1e47:7d28:b45e (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

- This message has been on your page for three weeks now and was not posted by me. I simply posted a welcome message to you over the weekend. Liz Read! Talk! 22:47, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
- @Liz:Respected Ma'am I understand that now. It was in continuation with your message. I don't know why it was so. I am sorry for the misunderstanding. The absence of signature made me think otherwise. I had no intention to attribute something you did not write to you. Shubham2019 (talk) 03:18, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
- Despite it being on my talk page earlier, i somehow missed it and read it in conjunction with your Welcome message. I respect you that you welcomed me, despite everyone else being a little intimidating. I'm really very sorry if i let you down. Shubham2019 (talk) 03:22, 10 March 2020 (UTC)

Ok I'll keep that in mind. I have worked at the place and was trying to improve its Wikipedia presence in good faith. I'll remember to write my own content if I make future edits. Thanks! Shubham2019 (talk) 17:09, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would like you to assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not do on North East Delhi riots. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. SerTanmay (talk) 09:11, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
Hello @SerTanmay. I would like to contribute constructively as well. I haven't edited any article in bad faith. I understand you are a senior editor. I am a novice. Looking forward to learn from Indian wiki ecosystem. Shubham2019 (talk) 09:59, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Edit summary content is visible in:
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary.
Thanks! Praxidicae (talk) 20:29, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
@Praxidicae: Thank you for the constructive guidance. I will definitely add edit summaries. You are the first editor with whom I've had a positive interaction. Shubham2019 (talk) 20:55, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
You are suspected of sock puppetry, which means that someone suspects you of using multiple Wikipedia accounts for prohibited purposes. Please make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, then, if you wish to do so, respond to the evidence at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Shubham Johri. Thank you. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 06:56, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
