Hansen Clarke and Peel District School Board

Hi, Tito! Are you ready to start Hansen Clarke and Peel District School Board in Bengali? Peel has a Bengali website which can help with the article Thanks WhisperToMe (talk) 11:41, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'll start the biographical article quickly! --Tito Dutta (contact) 19:43, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! WhisperToMe (talk) 03:12, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I found some more documents in Bengali that may help with Peel:

Your expertise needed

Please take a look at User talk:CorrectKnowledge#Mythological content in historical section. Sudhirkbhargava has been adding very early historical dates and other fringe stuff to many articles despite consensus at this RSN thread and my repeated attempts to explain why those edits are inappropriate. I think he is a good faith contributor, but clearly someone needs to review his edits, maybe even adopt the user. 197.* is currently involved in a discussion here and in edit wars on a few other articles. My involvement hasn't really worked in the past, so I am staying away from this. Please take a look into it. If nothing changes someone might have to raise WP:CIR concerns.

This is not an exhaustive list: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5]... Correct Knowledge«৳alk» 09:17, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
These edits contain a large number of exceptional claims, which needs exceptional citation. If he does not stop, ANI is the zone per WP:CIR (give 3-4 warnings first)! --Tito Dutta (contact) 09:21, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Also talk to his mentor User:Sitush --Tito Dutta (contact) 09:21, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep those pages on your watchlist for now, in case 197.* and Sudhir Bhargava start edit warring over this. Please also copy your reply above to Talk:Manusmṛti#Mythological content in historical section, it could use a third opinion. Is Sitush formally mentoring him? I posted something similar here. Correct Knowledge«৳alk» 09:32, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Watchlisted those articles! --Tito Dutta (contact) 11:15, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]


I please request for the Manusmṛti page to be reviewed to remove non-factual and misleading content presenting mythological content as being factual, and for other misleading content with the intention of presenting it as reality and glorifying it using unproven claims.

The user User:Sudhirkbhargava has made many misleading edits to that page that present mythological events unproven by archaeology as real historical events and also provides other misleading information presenting the mythological figure Manu as a historical person whose laws were followed in South-East Asia before the rise of Buddhism in India although no credible evidence for all these claims exist that are accepted by mainstream archaeology and historical sources.

The reasons given by the user who did this edit for replacing the information in that section are ideologically/politically biased, not supported by any archaeological and historical evidence and are either completely unproven or any conclusive evidence supporting these claims is absent.

Here is a compilation of all the misleading edits made to this page.

This user has also done many similar edits on pages relating to Indian mythology and history by adding mythological content and dates to historical content and by adding unproven archaeological/historical contents to pages relating to Indian mythology, especially to pages relating to Bhargava, Bhrigu, Manu and Dhosi Hill as can be seen from this user's contributions. Most of the information added is either directly cited from mythological texts or is fringe theory, politically biased, non-factual and contrary to any information obtained from archaeological, geological and historical evidence and seeks to glorify some aspects of history and mythology in a biased way while being detrimental to the factual, real and unbiased version of these topics.

Something must be done to remove the misleading non-factual information from all these pages and to prevent this user from adding non-factual information to more pages for good. This was the first time I edited something and contacted a user on Wikipedia and I will probably not edit anything again. I can't and don't want to keep on editing more or to engage in an edit war with someone.

Is it possible to unlock the Manusmṛti page so that I can undo these edits or can another Wikipedia user undo them? The page needs to be reverted to its last version from 33 July 2012 to remove all misleading information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 197.225.241.102 (talk) 20:27, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

He does not cite reliable sources that are widely accepted by mainstream scientists. He only cites mythological texts, other Wikipedia pages and himself in his edits. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 197.225.241.102 (talk) 01:30, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for taking notice of my request. This was my last involvement in this problem and I won't edit or contact Wikipedians again because I don't know anything about editing on Wikipedia. Please solve this problem among yourselves quickly. All the misleading information must be removed and this user must be prevented from making misleading edits by mixing historical and mythological information. I came to Wikipedia to look for reliable references to use for academic research but I was deeply offended by the biased, non-factual and misleading edits on the Manusmṛti page. These misleading edits make people lose faith on Wikipedia.

I wonder what all is cooking up on my edits on certain pages. I have given only factual and true references. Be specific to say what is wrong rather than being general. I have deep studies on Manusmriti, the seers who dictated it, the period and place where the seers had their habitation, and the Vedic states mentioned by the seers in their compilation. Also several researches by eminent scientists in seminars on the rivers Saraswati/Drishadwati and the state of Brahmavarta are now available, which give scientific support to references. I do not mind discussions any where.Sudhirkbhargava (talk) 17:07, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Early dates like 10000bc aren't supported by any scientific evidence widely accepted by the archeology. There are no conclusive evidence of Manu and Bhrigu living at beginning of Holocene period. 10000bc was still the Stone Age. Mythological texts aren't conclusive evidence and seminars aren't reliable sources. The Manusmrti page said that Manusmrti was influenced by Arthashastra and was written between 200bc and 200ce before you edited it. The discussiom here said that your claims are fringe theory that is not accepted by mainstream archeology and that it doesn't support 10000 year old civilisation. User:CorrectKnowledge said that you were told you mustn't add these dates to pages because no evidence supported by mainstream archeology supports it. RandomOffendedUser (talk) 19:55, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I talked of period of Manu and Bhrigu as 10,000 years ago not 10,000BCE. I would like to know where Manusmriti says that it was influenced by Arthashastra and was written during 200BC and 200CE. What are the sources ? This is baseless and mere speculation. Manusmriti was applicable during Ramayana period (5200 BCE) and Mahabharata period (3100 BCE) also. So dates of 200BC or 200CE are vague. Archeologists have confirmed that there were floods in Brahmavarta region 10,000 years ago. Can give you specific sources also. Satellite images of palaeochannels of two rivers Saraswati and Drishadwati which formed Brahmavarta state, where Bhrigu and Manu had their Ashrams (mentioned in more than 3 Sanskrit Books) confirm descriptions in Sanskrit books, confirming that no mythology is involved and book contains facts. As per Puranas, Bhrigu had migrated to Bharuch on the banks of Narmada river in Gujrat. Archaeological findings there are dated 8500 years old. On Manusmriti page I have given precise references with every important information. Sanskrit books cannot be termed as mythological books if contents are facts and can be proved on scientific parametres.

On pages Ayurveda and Vedic Period, there are several wrongs which need to be removed. There is untruth galore on those pages. But some editors make a cartel to have their say. It is a creditibility loss to Wikipedia. No wonders, on the 12th anniversary of launching of Wikipedia, the largest selling Hindi daily news paper in India 'Dainik Bhaskar' carried a quater front page story after a survey, saying that Wikipedia carries 50 % untruths. I tend to agree with that report as I find that several pages are not taken care of al all. But where serious editors try to improve some pages, there is resistence from vested interests. When Ramayana and Mahabharata periods, 5400 BCE and 3100 BCE respectively are well accepted now on the basis of different scientific parameters, and Manusmriti was applied during that period also, saying that Manusmriti was written 200BCE or 200CE is a joke. Please have exhaustive discussions before changing facts on Manusmriti pageSudhirkbhargava (talk) 12:23, 21 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Edits on Dhosi Hill page aren't acceptable or scientific. The page says that geologists don't accept that Dhosi hill is a volcano but it also says that Dhosi Hill is a volcano because it is written in mythological texts and because it's rock look like volcanic lava.
It remains mysterious, because despite its physical features of an extinct Volcano, Geologists refuse to acknowledge it a Volcanic eruption maintaining that Aravali range did not have any volcanic eruptions during last 2 million years, though, the epic Mahabharat mentions clearly that this hill, having features like 'three distinct hill tops', 'three perennial water falls' and housing the Ashram of revered Rishi Chyavana, had 'appeared' (obviously through Volcanic eruption), at the confluence of Treta and Dwapar yug [1] which happens to be within last 10,000 years and not 2 million years. RandomOffendedUser (talk) 20:16, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Well, no geologist has yet analysed the lava at Dhosi Hill. However, they maintain from their established knowledge, that no volcanic eruption has taken place in India except Andamans Islands during last 2 million years. But when you talk to them on a Volcanic eruption at Dhosi Hill, which has all the features of a Volcanic Hill and lava lying there as in picture, they suggest to get it analysed and dated for which I am keen too. Also, the geologists do maintain that seismic activity did take place in Aravali hills 6000-5000 BCE, which resulted in changing of routes of Saraswati and Drishadwati rivers which resulted in migrations from the area. I can mention these sources on the page. Unfortunately, no geologist has yet analysed the lava shown in the picture. To me it is a mysterious hill as it has higher magnetic field, some rare herbs, a rejunevating pond on the hill top and place where Chayavanprash was first formulated and was the Ashram of Chayavana Rishi, who was son of Bhrigu rishi. Mahabharata epic has many mentions of this hill. and they cannot be mythologies. Removing the picture of lava hill is intriguing to me. You would not find lava lying on any hill in India. It is a mysterious hill to me and for any reader. It is a feature of Dhosi Hill which any reader would like to know and see. Dhosi Hill does need more citations. But please discuss before removing any contents.Sudhirkbhargava (talk) 15:26, 21 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Mr Titodutta

Thanks, Mr Titodutta. This is my first attempt and I really appreciate your quick comments and suggestions. I'll incorporate the changes you have suggested and come back with a revised article.

Write the article in the followingformat
  • Lead (no header_
  • Early life (birth, education)
  • Literary career (don't make sections for each book)
  • Bibliography
  • Awards
  • See also (if any, don't add those links which are already linked in article body)
  • References
  • External links (not more than 2 external links)! --Tito Dutta (contact) 14:10, 21 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mr Titodutta, Let me again thank you for reading my first article. As you suggested, I removed all the external links and gave citations. I think they are enough citations. I have tried changing the tone of the article - I fully realize that it has to fit in the tone of the encyclopedia - and will happily discuss further changes (if necessary) but the article is about a writer who has explored a different genre - Unauthorized biographies. While developed countries have their share of Kitty Kellies, the writers face several pressure groups when they write something different. Sadat Hasan Manto suffered for this very reason. And many biographies are not allowed to be sold. We are a country of book burners. Mohan Deep went against the tide and that two in mid-nineties when there wasn't much money in writing books. I admire this but don't want it to color my article. I am fascinated with wikipedia and hope to write more on different subjects. In fact, I am considering 'Biographies' as my next article. I may start from Akbarnaama and Babarnaama to analyze the kind of biographies being written in India. Will love to get your opinion.

Should I resubmit now or the article needs further changes.

Farida. F.Balsara (talk) 07:18, 22 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • This article is not fully ready! In my opinion, please follow the format mentioned above! If particulars book is notable (and if you collect multiple reliable sources covering the book), you can create articles on those books too. See Rabindranath Tagore, we don't add all details on each and every book in the main "biographical article"! --Tito Dutta (contact) 07:59, 22 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

On Y2K (Athoba, 'Sex Krome Aasitechhe')

It's nice to see the article being kept. This is a peculiar situation, we do not have enough online sources to back it, whereas I know from personal experience that it has gained sort of a cult status. As I told in the AfD, the film was shown in 2001 Kolkata film festival, at least twice (incidentally I was there in the audience both times). The second time it was shown, it was not in the itinerary, and some viewers (who probably already saw it the previous day), protested by shouting! I even overheard somebody saying, Satyajit Institute theke esob ki cinema toiri korchhe, chhi chhi!!

At that time, I thoroughly enjoyed it :p --Dwaipayan (talk) 03:12, 22 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Page on Dhosi Hill

Hi ! Titodutta, seeing so much work pending with you, I become reluctant to visit your talk page. However, two days ago in a discussion, rather a complaint, that I keep pushing very old dates on various pages related to Hindu books etc. I had given my submission there. I was expecting a comment from you. The complainant supported by editor Correct Knowledge made representation to you to take measures to block me from editing on various pages. Well, they have every right to ask for that. But some of the reasons given by them are bizarre claiming: how Manu can belong to any period as he was a mythological figure. Do they mean that he never existed in flesh and blood and Manusmriti is almost a Ghost book ? Please comment on this. Also, I'll request you to revert the contents on Dhosi Hill page which are related to floods. Sudhirkbhargava (talk) 06:22, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am disappointed at your response. My research work is different from my postings on Wikipedia. I have only posted the published work from different sources. There are no exceptional claims. These are simple facts with supports. You edited page on Bhrigu on 20th March. Are you satisfied with its present form ? Also could you be specific where I have put some thing researched, which did not have a peer review ? It is all there in Sanskrit Books already. Please also comment what are the views of Wikipedia on Manu, who dictated Manusmriti. Sudhirkbhargava (talk) 07:14, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • There are many, soem examples are given above. Also,
1 Using primary source and own writing as reference! Here you have reverted with edit summary "well sourced" but where are sources there? Please read WP:RS and WP:Secondary. You must add multiple secondary reliable sources when you are claiming something which happened 10,000 years ago! Also, to improve your editing skill, you can try WP:Adopt --Tito Dutta (contact) 07:24, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I do not mind having a helper for editing these pages. But for your 2 points, A) Aryavarta was mentioned by Manu in Manusmriti itself and I have quoted the shalok no. as reference. All the rishis mentioned by me form the Saptrishis combine and were with Manu during floods and started compilation of Books like Rigveda and other scriptures. Rigveda has mentioned Rishis and their clans who contributed to the book. The third component of spiritual God Shiva is part of Taittiriya Upnishad. Though it was part of my PPP in a seminar which should be there on internet, I can put the reference from the Upnishad itself. But the fact is not unsourced. Pt 2 mentioned by you is from page Dhusar. You removed a sentence 'that people who migrated from dhosi Hill area follow Vedic sanskriti and ayurveda. I can give a published source to you, but as you are based in Kolkata, you can meet a Marwari family in Barabazar and find out from them about their original place and traditions they follow. They must be following Vedic Sanskriti and Ayurveda in day-to-day life. Last year I stayed in a hotel in Kolkata, where the manager proudly told me that LNMittal's residence is just behind, though he rarely comes here. Mittal community's trust manages half of the Dhosi Hill and they belonged to a nearby place, so do most of other Marwaries. The sentence was added on page in lighter vein. Can give a reference too. However, please let me know of a deletion before hand, so that I can put a citation for my additions. Recent archaeological findings on Vedic sites on the radio-metric analysis go back to 9500-9700 ago. Am compiling a list to put as references. Sudhirkbhargava (talk) 09:30, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Whoosh! What my residence or Marwari family in Barabazar or PPP seminar have to do here? Write in brief and to the point! Wikipedia does not work in this policy: "information first, citation later.. maybe.. I'll think". You have to add citations (reliable and secondary) at the time of adding information! And enrol at WP:Adopt so that you can learn how Wikipedia works! --Tito Dutta (contact) 10:01, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

before i submit the article

Hello Mr Titodutta, Thank you for guiding me. I went through the manual too. It is an exciting world! I have removed the external links and replaced them with citations. I hope to add some more even after the article is accepted.

As for the content, I have avoided using judgmental words as well as superlatives. As the subject of the article, Mohan Deep himself is known for controversial biographies, one can't avoid mentioning them. I checked and saw that controversies are mentioned in the articles about several other writers too. What is a writer without a controversy :) I am submitting the article again. Please accept it and then it will be open to everyone for any valid corrections.

Hi Tito, Regarding the use of bold in the lede, please see the following advice from the WP:MOS: If the article's exact title is absent from the first sentence, do not apply the bold style to related text that does appear:

Hi Mr Titodutta

Thanks for the encouragement. I have noted everything and will revise the article soon. However, I have reservation about the comment inviting people to 'remove potentially libelous material'. Everything I have written is based on published articles and books (published in mid nineties) which remain unchallenged. 'Eurekha!' (about Rekha) has been extensively quoted in a series on Aaj Tak and I hope to give some of those links too. Regards. Farida F.Balsara (talk) 14:42, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Been out sick for a bit, so I haven't a clue what you received, but it did remind me of my first threatening email on Wikipedia. It was from a habitual sockpuppeter that liked creating stubs that were 90% correct, but the other 10% of the info was from outer space. The funny part of the email said that as a Jewm he did not believe in a hell, but due to the actions of several of us editors to block him, Jews now believed in a hell.... only it is filled with evil Wikipedians. I think you need to come on down to Jewish/Wikipedian hell and join us. Bgwhite (talk) 07:25, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Copyediting

Hi! I went and did a copyedit of the article WhisperToMe (talk) 19:25, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

suppose: re Paoli anubrato pic

I'll put it as a contrafactual:

1. suppose someone were to tell you *informally* that Paoli, anubrato and vimukti would - off the record - rather have the pic in the article than not. Would it make a difference?

2. You not only listed the pic for deletion: you removed it from the aricle.

Are you being prudish which is IMO *in this case* male chauvinism and therefore violative of NPOV? Already wikipedia *still* has a pro-israel bias!

So, only for once, I am undoing your change.

In not-near future I might undo it again but only at the request of interested parties - my lips will remain sealed on that one.

Officiallly, I am doing it on my own, for one, I am trying out the possiblity of the govt of india suing me for 'uploading obscene material' -- if they foolishly do so it will be an important test case..

Hello Mr Titodutta,

As you advised, I have changed (or tried to change) my article on Mohan Deep to make it more suitable for encyclopedia style. Also, I have edited out some parts and may add them in new articles I plan to write. I may add some citation for the parts edited out now, specially about Mohan Deep's writings in Sindhi. Now, I don't see anything in the article that can be considered libelous. In any case, the trilogy (published in mid nineties) remains unchallenged till this time.

I am planning to do a piece on Sindhis but before that I'll check whether there is an article on the same subject in Wikipedia. Also, to add some material in different articles to enhance them further.

F.Balsara (talk) 05:20, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Arey, Balsara Ji, Kehra haal aahin? You have copyedited the article very well. It needs some more changes, 1) don't use ALL CAP 2) move the "Early life" section before "Literary career" and 3) I could not understand why you removed the date of birth! --Tito Dutta (contact) 05:28, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Arey Titodada :), I may do an article about Sindhis but I'm a Zoroastrian, got acquainted with the writings of Mohan Deep through Jam-E-Jamshed. I'll make the changes you suggested. I removed the reference to his date of birth as I don't know how to authenticate it. I don't want to approach him for every small thing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by F.Balsara (talk • contribs) 07:11, 26 March 2013 (UTC) UTC[reply]

Dada, for now, I'm leaving the early part where it is. I'll rewrite it once I get the supporting info and then shift it up. In fact, I came across the fascinating articles of Mohan Deep before he started writing books. He had exposed the corruption in 'Filmfare Awards' and his investigative article published in 'Island' (now defunct) was hailed as 'the most explosive story of the decade by Stardust'. It has interesting incidents like Amjad Khan refused to give bribe for getting an award for Gabbar Singh's role and Rajesh Khanna bribing them for getting an award for the best actor!

Titoda, Thanks! I have used the format you showed and added a biblography to the article as well as given various citations. This will be my first article on wikipedia :) Must thank you for the encouragement. I'll start working on other articles now. In the meanwhile, one question: How long will the note above the article (about citations which are already there and libel) remain? I request that both may please be removed as neither the books have ever been dragged to court during more than 15 years nor have I really quoted from the books. Farida. F.Balsara (talk) 08:00, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I removed both stills from the chatrak article - I had uploaded both. Because paoli requested me to. The lady is wonderful: she said explicitly that 'this is a request'

So, I support listing *both* images for deletion, because they are not being used for article. Tito, will you do that for me, I being a casual editor?

Meanwhile, I'm seeing if as the uploader I have the right to unilaterally remove both stills I uploaded.

Case closed: by all ethical standards Paoli has a veto on this issue.

Manojpandeyanarchocommunist (talk) 08:04, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sure! I'll try to do so if you want. I was worried about the same thing: when the image is posted at Wikipedia, it immediately gets indexed by all search engines, including the giant Google in their first pages of search results. So, so far, what was only "leaked", it could be flooded through search engines. --Tito Dutta (contact) 08:13, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

continuing - yes i realise i've been silly..

yes, but I had thought there are high resolution torrents of the 3andahalf minute 'clip' - one is 8 minutes but it just the clip repeated plus black screen - *always* active and easily locatable via isohunt or fenopy... so anyone can torrent it and take snapshopts and upload them.

What I missed was that most of the prurient disgusting males are idiots and so a huge majority of them are so unbelievably tech-unsavvvy that they don't know how to use torrents or how to take snapshots from video files... so I unwitting did for them what they couldnt by themseleves - I've been incredibly silly and irresponsible - feeling terribly guilty.

Thanks for everything and regards,

If you search in Google (generally most people use Google to find content), you'll not get any "explicit" image other than some images and content from Hate Story! But, not this one. Once it is uploaded to Wikipedia, it immediately gets indexed by search engines and Wikipedia content is copied by hundreds of other sites. For this reason, I removed that image (not the other one, Dam wearing Saree) yesterday! Hope it makes sense now!

Hello Tito, the ~ mark doesn't work at acc interface, you need to sign your messages with your name. And the request 96679 you have custom-closed, the reason you have mentioned doesn't seem reasonable, so let me know. Usually we create accounts, requested from school IPs. So I'd suggest when you are not sure about handling any request, please seek assistance. Thank you. :-) -- ɑηsuмaη « ৳ᶏ ɭϞ » 12:27, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A similar question --Tito Dutta (contact) 13:53, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know why he thought that is a school IP (the ip mentioned at #multiple blocks), reasons mentioned anonblock, in such case i'd defer to CU. Is this IP from the request 96679? Range blocks clearly mentioned as schoolblock (only), should be AGF, created and watched. Hope it helps. -- ɑηsuмaη « ৳ᶏ ɭϞ » 15:23, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • a) So, rangeblock are not clearly mentioned in block log? b) I have seen creating accounts for reangblocked IPs results immediate account suspension. Any suggestion how to avoid it? c) #96499 what is your take on this username? --Tito Dutta (contact) 15:32, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
a.They are clearly mentioned at "Active Local Blocks", not Local Blocks. If there is no current, active local blocks, "Active Local Blocks" you won't see any log. And in such cases you only see previous block logs at "Local Blocks". b. If you are not sure, seek help or unreserve, and notice what others are doing, this way you can learn. And you can always and its recommended, you leave requests, you are not sure of to others, even I do now, when I am not sure of a name and so on. c. Username seems fine, unless it conflicts with a similar name while creating. -- ɑηsuмaη « ৳ᶏ ɭϞ » 15:54, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No, they need to be reviewed. It was mistaken by me as a range block. In range blocks, the requested IP and Target range IP don't match. The Target IP appears something like 23.23.00.00/26, then you know its a range block. But how you thought it's a proxy, without even looking into it? -- ɑηsuмaη « ৳ᶏ ɭϞ » 18:17, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your kind response needed

Hello, this is another mate on the English Wikipedia. If i'm posting in wrong place then sorry but i'd appreciated your comments. I know you're not Muslim but i saw your contributions for Swami Vivekananda and felt you're neutral. I'm requesting your comments as i feel some false accusation are being made without reliable sources in some Islam related articles that were created by a single editor User:BengaliHindu. Specially, i found this article 2013 Canning riots with lots of bias and false accusations against Muslims. May be i'm wrong but it may also possible that such articles were created per Islamophobia. I believe Wikipedia should be free from personal feelings or views and articles on sensitive topics need extra care to maintain a NPOV. I'd deeply appreciate your comments and advises. Best Regards,  Mrwikidor ←track 16:48, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
