Q1: Why does this article describe Jai Shri Ram negatively?
A1: Wikipedia and its editors in no way intend to denigrate any culture, ethnicity, nationality, religion, or organisation. Wikipedia articles are based on what reliable sources say about the subject; the neutral point of view policy defines neutrality as representing fairly, proportionately, and, as far as possible, without editorial bias, all the significant views that have been published by reliable sources on a topic. Reliable sources note that Jai Shri Ram has been used in a negative way, and so this article notes that as well. This does not imply that the phrase Jai Shri Ram is inherently bad.
Q2: I don't like what this article says! Can I edit it or at least suggest a change?
A2: Yes, you may edit the article if it is not protected and you are sure that your change is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you are not sure about your change, or if you can't edit the article as it is protected, please suggest the change using an edit request. Please remember that your edit must satisfy the following:
- It must be supported by reliable sources.
- It must not involve removing negative information about the subject unless that information is not supported by a reliable source or does not meet another policy or guideline.
Q3: This article says that Jai Shri Ram is used negatively, but I don't believe that it is used in such a way! Who is right?
A3: Please remember that just because you have never seen Jai Shri Ram being used negatively doesn't mean that it is never used negatively. For example, you may have only seen cases where Jai Shri Ram was used positively, but at the same time, other people use the same subject negatively. The article does not say that Jai Shri Ram is always used negatively. On the contrary, it says that Jai Shri Ram has been used negatively in certain situations.
