Orphaned references in Communism in India

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Communism in India's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "urb1":

From Naxalite–Maoist insurgency: Deaths in Naxal attacks down by 21%, Times Of India. 26 Sept 021.
From Red corridor: Deaths in Naxal attacks down by 21%. The Times of India. 26 Sept 021.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 14:34, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Crime reinstated

I reinstated the WikiProject Crime banner on this article after it had been removed by an editor using an anonymous IP address. While any user might add a WikiProject banner, the general principle for them, once added, is that the WikiProject members assess if an article is in-scope, or not. Users who do not think a WikiProject banner is relevant should discuss this, first, and explain their thinking. In the case of this article, it discusses the suppression of communist ideology by use of the criminal law and prosecutions to suppress political dissent. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 00:32, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have again reinstated the WikiProject Crime banner, because the anonymous editor that removed it did not discuss that removal, nor explain why removal was justified in their edit summary, which was also misleading, as it claimed this was discussed when it had not been. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 08:40, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I propose merging Communist movements in India into Communism in India. This is a pretty straightforward case of content fork.Soman (talk) 15:03, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
