Excellent edit to Raviraj article

Hi Citermon, regarding Chemmanai mass graves, you need to create the article. Believe it or not, I don't know much about the details. RaveenS can perhaps help you with this and lead the way. RaveenS knows much more about all this stuff than I do or ever will know. If you however need my help specifically, I can point you in the direction sometime late this weekend. Please also consider joining the project and meet other editors who also want to clean up these articles and ensure NPOV. Elalan 02:37, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Btw, thanks for the article. When the events thats being talked about happened, I did remember to ask the same question the author asked. It really smacks of the injustice inherent within humanity particularly directed at certain people. Maybe in the grand scheme of things its a good thing, this further raises the cause of certain people to the moral high ground. Elalan 14:16, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Civility warn

It seems to me that you are acting in an uncivil manner by using the word Daft against on other users comments . Please remain civil and don't resort to making personal attacks or instigating edit wars. ♪♫ ĽąĦĩŘǔ ♫♪ ^{Walkie-talkie} 19:27, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is your last warning.
The next time you blank a page, as you did to Padahuthurai bombing, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. snowolfD4^{( talk / @ )} 00:12, 10 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Common guys, this is simply a difference of opinion about WP:NPOV not a case of blanking that needs to escalate to this level. Yes Citermon was aggressive in his edits but he did not blank it. He left a fair amount of government response in. Also to term his edicts as blanking by a sockpuppet in the edit summary is provocative and may be considered WP:NPA and WP:ATTACK. Let’s all calm down and think it through. There is enough iinformation to write a good article about the latest case of Sri Lankan government going after the LTTe and ending up killing civilians instead. I don’t think the government began the mission to kill civilains deliberately. But that is my bias.

Hence we can write the article properly per WP:Lead then follow up with the

Short description of the incident

Reactions from the LTTE, Roman Catholic Bishop, Anglican Bishop[1]

Initial Government reaction and Government reaction to accusation including its justification.

I request Citermon to follow this method to edit it positively. All the other needed references are in the article itself. Thanks RaveenS 14:31, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
