:::[[User:Chisme|Chisme]], I didn't know stalking known figures on instagram would qualify as a reliable editing for this page. It's clear you have some other motives behind your negative editing and I have asked other editors to get involved. As far as your concerns regarding [[Rubina Bajwa]] and the subject dating, I believe you can Google and find many reliable sources that confirm this relationship. Stop vandalizing this page.

This article is of interest to the following WikiProjects: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

A history
Can I suggest that the phrasing in the lead of "a history of committing" is not a neutral. This phrasing leaves the impression that Wikipedia would like to suggest that it is over an indeterminable period and repeating, but the sources are only evidence of him being convicted twice on specific dates. It leaves the reader with an idea of what he has done, but no idea what constitutes "a history".
The lead should be factual. He has been convicted twice, for events between 2013 and 2018. Any suggestion of committing anything beyond this needs pristine reliable sources, less it be dangerously libellous. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 16:48, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
- He has a past history of having committed such crimes. That's neither libelous nor a suggestion that it happened over an indeterminable period. Lepricavark (talk) 17:55, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
- If it is not an indeterminable period, why not share with the reader that period? There is also a difference between "a past history of having committed" and "a history of committing". The tense on "committing" is present continuous. The phrasing quite clearly leaves the reader in the dark about the extent of his crimes, and could be interpreted as suggesting they continue. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 11:18, 28 August 2019 (UTC)
- I still think that's splitting hairs and I'm unwilling to bend over backwards to go easy on Chahal, especially in light of the longstanding (and ongoing) efforts to give his article a favorable slant. I'd like to hear what other editors have to say about the wording of that sentence in the lead. Lepricavark (talk) 12:34, 28 August 2019 (UTC)

Back Taxes Source is Not Credible
Hi Editors,
I wish to bring to your notice an irregularity and misinformation appearing on this WP page.
"As of 2019, Chahal owed the State of California $1,706,117 in back taxes"
As you have extended-protected the article, I am unable to make the edit.
It would be very kind of you if you can remove the extended-protected tag for a while and see if there is any negative activity this time.
Or else it would be great if you could remove this line altogether.
You can check on the internet, there is not a single article that makes this claim about back taxes this apart from a random and unsourced/unreferenced article on a non-trustworthy blog californiaglobe.com.
Just one search on Google and you will be able to see this is not true at all and the article has been published baselessly just to malign his image.
Looking forward to hear from you.

- I got the impression the purpose of the article was to describe prominent people on the list, not "baselessly malign their images." This Wikipedia article has a long history of attempts to white-wash its subject. This is why the protection tag was attached. Chisme (talk) 17:59, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Chisme, I am just challenging the source and the credibility of that one line on back taxes. Can we put in a tag [unreliable source?]? Hardeep.pathak (talk) 12:59, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
- No. It's a reliable source and you can tell Mr. Chahal that we are neither removing it nor tagging it as unreliable. Lepricavark (talk) 13:43, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
Mysteries Abound: Dating in Encyclopedia?
Does who someone is dating belong in an encyclopedia article? The article says, "In October 2019, Chahal began dating Rubina Bajwa, a punjabi (sic) actress, the sister of veteran actress, Neeru Bajwa." If Bajwa was his wife it would merit a mention in this article. However, Wikipedia doesn't aspire to be People magazine or a such-like gossip rag. I remind editors this is an encyclopedia. Who he is currently dating is not germane. Chisme (talk) 19:24, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
- If the other person is not notable, then per WP:PUBLICFIGURE they should not be included. Primefac (talk) 20:13, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
- I note that all photos of Rubina Bajwa and Chahal on Instagram have been removed. The Indian press got it wrong. He's not dating her. Why were the photos taken down from Instagram? Meanwhile, User:Meeanaya, who edited this article to say the subject was dating Rubina Bajwa, has been banned from Wikipedia for "undisclosed paid editing, meatpuppetry and covert advertising." I note as well that someone named PunjabCinema07 joined Wikipedia on November 15, wrote a draft article about Rubina Bajwa, and abruptly disappeared. Two days later blocked user Meeanaya promoted the draft article to a real article. (The article has since been demoted to draft status: Draft:Rubina Bajwa.) Mysteries abound where Gurbaksh Chahal is concerned. Look out for the meatpuppets. Look out for paid editors. Beware of covert advertising. Chisme (talk) 21:19, 26 November 2019 (UTC)

Awards
Awards are typically mentioned, iff the awards are sufficiently covered in reliable sources, to the extent of deserving their own articles. At any case,
- Sify.com is not a RS and neither I do see any intellectually independent coverage about Light of India Awards" in reliable mainstream publications.
- Yahoonews has republished a PR piece and does not qualify as a RS. Now while Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award has a page (which ought be actually deleted, going by the sourcing), I am seeing no SIGCOV in reliable MSM, either.
- Businesswire republishes PR feed, thus making it an unreliable source. And receiving anything other than a honorary PhD from an university is almost-always non-notable.
- Yahoo!Styles ain't a RS, most-probably.
- We need secondary coverage in reliable sources about his philanthropic activities; not over blogs of RSs having nil editorial scrutiny. [Check archived snaps of the link]
