Indic script

@Sitush and Human3015:, as both of you said on Srinagar talk page that there is consensus for not removing Indic script from lead of place names. But see history of this page, Kashmiri is keep on removing Indic script. I told him about this issue on his talk page, [1], read his reply there, he said "private discussion" doesn't matters. So same applies to Urdu language too. There is no community consensus for not removing Urdu from Article. Same rule should be applied to all Indian languages. --Vtk1987 (talk) 23:40, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

The application of this rule is specific to WikiProject India, not to any language. kashmiri ^TALK 01:48, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

Kashmiri, Ok, then Srinagar and all Jammu and Kashmir related articles comes under Wikiproject India, they have tags of the same, so don't hesitate to delete Urdu text anytime. Thank you. --Human3015 02:04, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

As I have said elsewhere, in a discussion involving Vtk1987, we only show the scripts for official languages of the place that the article is describing. Is Urdu an official language for Hailakandi? Not according to the infobox, it isn't, although I think that the proliferation of languages in India means that we really should source all such statements (including the Bangla one that is stated here). - Sitush (talk) 04:52, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

Ah, I see the issue here is not about which language but about where to show it. I am comfortable with it just being shown in the infobox, which has equal prominence to the lead and appears to be the thing that is often "scraped" by Google in their search results. As of now, I don't think anyone has found the relevant thread at WT:INB. - Sitush (talk) 04:56, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
