Here[edit]

"...the channels available throughout India are also available here." The "here" should be specified or this sentence should be removed, I think Isjee594 (talk) 15:15, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Restoring reverted edits[edit]

My recent edit to this page was reverted as it appeared to the editor to be WP:ADVOCACY of a particular point of view, specifically waste management in Indian cities or by Indian municipalities. I am relatively new to Wikipedia and see myself as a steward for water, sanitation and solid waste management related content on the site. These are the issues that I intend to write about in a neutral, balanced and informative manner. On reading my edits to the Gangtok page you will find that all of the content is verifiable i.e. it is sourced from reliable and published sources. My writing style, in my opinion, is (1) fact based, (2) neutral in tone without any puffery, contentious labels or unsupported attributions and (3) balanced i.e. holistic and not highlighting fringe views. I do not regard my edits as WP:ADVOCACY and would like to restore the content.

Improve audio clip[edit]

The audio clip right now does not have the right pronunciation. An authentic local pronunciation of the name of the city is needed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sudarshanhs (talkcontribs) 18:08, 14 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This article doesn't seem to be quite up to the current featured article criteria. The history section doesn't seem to be quite complete (nothing noteworthy happened after 1997?), and some of the information/statistics (particularly civic administration, utitilies, and education) are outdated. If these issues are not addressed, a featured article review may eventually happen. Hog Farm Bacon 04:46, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Hog Farm's concerns above. The history section ends in 1997 (and has huge gaps in coverage), civic administration needs update their representatives for the latest election, and the transport sections should be updated with new information and merging this information together should be considered per WP:OVERSECTION. Is anyone interested in fixing up this article? If not, it might be nominated at WP:FAR. Z1720 (talk) 15:31, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
