A GA made in 2012. Now has multiple unsourced claims that need to be addressed for this article to remain a GA. Onegreatjoke (talk) 17:19, 7 January 2023 (UTC)

This article is a mess right now. I'm gonna try to remove blatantly bad sources and content out of the article. CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 12:26, 8 January 2023 (UTC)

Why was the revision undone?

Asking for @Fowler&fowler on the edit 18:14, 8 August 2024‎:

Please note that it is a state or territory, not a settlement. It does not need an oversize emblem that is almost identical to the Indian emblem, not a map that offers little information. Per WP:BRD and WP:ONUS please take to the talk page.Undid revision 1239238785 by Pur 0 0 (talk).

If it's a state or territory and not a settlement, then why did you remove my state or territory infobox and replaced it with the settlement infobox? The one I had replaced was of settlement and the one I added was of state or territory. You basically said I was correct, and then removed my correct template and replaced it with what you said is wrong.

The emblem, map or whatever things you're saying are a part of the Infobox Indian state or territory. Look at all the other states and union territories too, they are all also like this (Chandigarh, Puducherry, Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu etc). Pur 0 0 (talk) 08:45, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

@Fowler&fowler I said it 3 days ago and you still didn't reply. What is making you undo my revision??? At least tell what's wrong about it. Pur 0 0 (talk) 11:47, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

I don't particularly care what argument (i.e. settlement or Indian state or territory) is chosen as long as nothing else in the infobox is changed. But you have fiddled with the rest: added a rudimentary map of India with no labels in place of a multiscale map in place. You have also fiddled with the pictures. What is in place at the moment of writing is the hard-won consensus version. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 12:28, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

Template:Infobox Indian state or territory needs an overhaul....should not duplicate info/images. Moxy🍁 14:23, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

So if I keep the same images and use the multiscale map instead of the one which has been used for all other states or territories, then it will be fine? Because I don't particularly care about those things. I only want the correct infobox. Pur 0 0 (talk) 14:50, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Delhi is only technically a state or territory, for the world knows it as a city, or metropolis. All other sister metropolises: New York City, London, Tokyo, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai have only the Infobox settlement. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 17:11, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

That's because people often get Delhi and New Delhi mixed. It's even mentioned in the second paragraph of New Delhi's article. It's similar to how people get mixed up between New York and New York City.

New Delhi's infobox similar to the ones that all the cities have. Delhi, on the other hand, is the union territory, and the easiest way to clear the misconception to everyone is to have Wikipedia say it. If it has an infobox that tells its state symbols instead of things like nearest airport and metro system, that could clear things up. Also, the infobox Indian state or territory gives the option to write city in it, so that can enter both metropolis and union territory. Pur 0 0 (talk) 10:52, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

PS. I think it would be best if you present here what you have in mind; you can then get the input of many; otherwise, edit-warring results. Thanks. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 17:17, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Now what? I kept the same pictures that were in the previous infobox, I used the multiscale map as you wanted, what else do you want now?

As of the emblem, it is the emblem of Delhi (sources: List of Indian state symbols#Delhi, List of Indian state emblems#Union territories). Just because it is a replica of the Indian emblem doesn't mean it has no significance. By your logic Rajasthan, Gujarat, Assam, Mizoram, Tripura, none of them should have their emblems shown in their infoboxes because they are all similar to the Indian emblem.

Also, why do I have to keep justifying myself for my edits, even when I am the one following the prescribed order? You keep undoing my revision which took me a long time to create. Why don't we do it the other way around? You are the one who is making an exception for Delhi alone. Pur 0 0 (talk) 23:09, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

I think there has been a misunderstanding. I looked up the edit history, and turns out it was @JRDkg who has changed the images. Maybe that is why you might have thought I replaced them again when I changed the infobox. If I keep the same images, I guess there should be no conflict between our interests. I will make the edit when you see this. Pur 0 0 (talk) 00:03, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

Your edits were undone because they are redundant. You have two emblems of Delhi which appear to be very similar to the Indian emblem, and do nothing but make the infobox dip into the next section. So, no emblems, no city bird, city mascot, city flower, ... whatever else you were attempting to add. The model for us is the featured article, Darjeeling, which successfully cleared featured article review not too long ago, and where the FAR referees explicitly asked us to avoid redundancies. Btw, I do know about New Delhi.

Alright, you should have started by telling about the featured article model, because that seems to be a valid reason. If that is the case, I will not pursue this any further. Thank you and have a good day. GG )) Pur 0 0 (talk) 07:39, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

In turn, I apologize for not explaining things to you clearly. I had too much on my plate then. Sometimes it takes thinking to explain what one has done. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 12:54, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for your cordiality. Best, Fowler&fowler«Talk» 12:50, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

Use of the word 'dearth' in the cuisine section.

I'm fairly certain dearth is the opposite of the intended meaning. Replace with ' profusion' perhaps. Duncanbadham (talk) 23:17, 22 September 2024 (UTC)

I assume it was the variety of cuisines and have rewritten it accordingly. The citations don't look particularly reliable but, I guess, that's the best we're going to get for cuisines. RegentsPark (comment) 23:53, 22 September 2024 (UTC)
