Talk:National Digital Library of India

Digital Library of India vs National Digital Library of India

Hello,

The information on this Wikipedia page is not about National Digital Library of India, much of it instead talks about Digital Library of India, which was a separate project and bears no association with National Digital Library of India. DLI was a separate project that was shut down.

Many of the changes made, even when citations were added to it, are being reverted - if you could possibly assist on why the reversion is happening and what changes need to be made so that that can be prevented, then at least correct information about NDLI can be on its Wikipedia page.

This page was originally the DLI page, which in the 'View History' section I found, was later changed to National Digital Library of India. The information in this page is a mixture of both, can you offer advice on how this can be resolved?

Neutral point of view and sourcing problems

1. The National Digital Library of India (NDLI) has been instrumental in providing Institutional Digital Repository (IDR) services to academic institutions across India. To date, NDLI has facilitated the establishment of more than 150 IDRs

2. By that time NDLI also enhanced its capabilities in handling and preserving Indigenous content, including rare manuscripts and folk literature, thus contributing to the preservation of cultural heritage.

3. With the primary aim to integrate significant Indian digital and non-digital libraries through a single-window platform, ensuring accessibility to educational resources for every demographic the library was dedicated to the nation on June 19, 2018...

4. The primary objective of the NDLI Club is to promote NDLI awareness among students and teachers through activity-based learning, offering NDLI as a valuable resource and service...

5. NDLI aggregates content from numerous national and international sources, including books, articles, theses, audio-video lectures, and OERs. The platform supports multiple languages, catering to the diverse linguistic landscape of India, and ensures resources are available from primary school to post-graduate levels and beyond.

Tell me @Dr. Anirban Mukherjee, how is this neutral?

Not only that, some sources that you used to back up your claims are irrelevant, or primary source that doesn't really support the evidence, but just your synthesis.

For example, in 2017-2020: Phase Two and Official Launch, you claim that: A new and more user-friendly UI was launched to make it accessible on various devices, promoting wider use in both urban and rural areas. By that time NDLI also enhanced its capabilities in handling and preserving Indigenous content, including rare manuscripts and folk literature, thus contributing to the preservation of cultural heritage but your source is only a link to the website. At what does it shows the reader? Nothing. Reader will ask themselves, how is the UI new or more user-friendly from before, or how does it enhanced in its capabilities than before?

This is where the secondary sources came in. Say a well-known news article reporting about the UI of the NDLI, comparing it from the older version to the newer version, posting pictures of both as their reference, then reader will understand how different it was from before. Your job now simply is to summarize the information and cite the source appropriately. 🔥YesI'mOnFire🔥^{(ContainThisEmber?)} 14:49, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

@Dr. Anirban Mukherjee I am reverting this article to its last good version until you have address the problems above. 🔥YesI'mOnFire🔥^{(ContainThisEmber?)} 14:50, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

@YesI'mOnFire I don't know what is your issue. Do you have any idea about the National Digital Library of India? If not, please go, visit, and do some research on it. Else explaining all these things to you will be a waste of time. For your information, the platform wikipedia, where you are doing all this mastery, is also a partner of NDLI. Experts from Wikimedia attained and exchanged ideas in International Seminars organized by NDLI. Now you may ask how do I know? the answer will be that also need some research. Dr. Anirban Mukherjee (talk) 15:03, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

@Dr. Anirban Mukherjee And do I need to know this information? My answer is no. What I am concerned about is the promotional tone this article is currently using and the lack of reliable, secondary sources to back it up. 🔥YesI'mOnFire🔥^{(ContainThisEmber?)} 15:13, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

@YesI'mOnFire NDLI doesn't need any promotion as this is one of the world's largest digital libraries developed under the aegis of Govt. of India. This is open and free to all the people of India and the world as well. Dr. Anirban Mukherjee (talk) 15:17, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

@Dr. Anirban Mukherjee But in this article it pretty much screams "promotional" to me. Look at the bolded sentences carefully and point out to me which part does not sounds promotional to me. 🔥YesI'mOnFire🔥^{(ContainThisEmber?)} 15:24, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

@YesI'mOnFire Do whatever you want, the only word I would say is that you are destroying some not easily available information from the archive. Dr. Anirban Mukherjee (talk) 15:32, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
