Govtindiabihar: I think Chris missed a word in his comment. We don't care who you are. Anything going into a Wikipedia article, particularly a biography, has to be supported by reference to a
reliable source. Click on that wikilink and read that page, the term "reliable" has a specific meaning, regarding where it is published and by whom. See also
WP:SECONDARY, a description of the preferred type of sources. We rarely allow
primary sources.
The situation that someone says "I know more than you", but does not provide sources to document their version of the truth , is so frequent on Wikipedia that it has become a comical stereotype. When we see any edit being made which says "I know it because he's my relative" or "because I was there", or "because I have political power", it is almost always reverted without further ado. That's not what Wikipedia is for. Regards,
