Please take some time and read this article it fails Neutral point of view and has a lot of bias in writing, was really surprised to see this fansite been listed as good article, No offence to any major contributor i respect their work, but still couldn't digest the fact that this article is listed as good article Anoptimistix "Message Me" 08:40, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Anoptimistix: Do you have specific areas you think are biased and fan-centric? Maybe noting some of these things would make it easier for community reviewers. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:36, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Cyphoidbomb: I respect ghoshal like any other musician as I am a music lover, I also value her contributions to Indian music but this article especially Popularity, Impact & Recognition section appears to be written by Ardent fan of ghoshal. 2 years before when this article passed good article status, I assume these might not be there, I was going to contact the reviewer who gave good article status but unfortunately the reviewer had declared retirement on their user page.

Comment: the article has nearly quadrupled in size since it was made a Good Article in October 2015, so it seems likely that the new material may not meet GA standards, though there may have been some problems even back in 2015. However, a fair amount of material has been deleted from the 2015 version, which may also be a contributing factor to the current issues. BlueMoonset (talk) 08:07, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. @Anoptimistix: I am one of the major contributor of this page. The section that you have pointed out as "fansite" was probably not that exaggeratedly written when it was passed two years ago. I was not active on WP for nearly a year when it was, and still is, extensively edited by User:Zafar24 who has been adding a lot of non-POV, fanboy fluffs into the article. I will try to give this article an overall copyedit. Yashthepunisher (talk) 14:54, 23 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Anoptimistix: Is it okay now? I have chopped down almost half of the fluff in the impact and recognition section and the rest of the article seems fine to me. Yashthepunisher (talk) 05:38, 24 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment : Yashthepunisher; Thank you Brother for all your hardwork done till now. I myself admire a lot of musicians and also acknowledge Ghoshal's contributions to the Indian music. Yes, I understand as a significant contributor you have worked very hard on this so I am Withdrawing this reassessment request as you have almost fixed this one.
