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 Indian Administrative Service'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 "history":

The cabinet secretary is not a "constitutional authority". The constitution does not refer to the post as such, and there was no "cabinet secretary" per se, until the 1960s. Just because of the fanciful assumptions of a few, we should not distort the truth. The item designating the cabinet secretary as a constitutional authority should be removed. The Cabsec is a professional, and serving government servant, and cannot be deemed to be a const. authority on a par with Judiciary, Commission members, the President, and other such. The Cabsec is fully liable to dismissal at the pleasure of the President, if the government so chooses, without any recourse to parliamentary ratification. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.63.75.210 ( talk) 07:47, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Indian Foreign Service is not an All India Service. It is a Central Service. Indian Forest Service is an All India Service.
Yes .
Phuntunampucholi ( talk) 15:43, 13 September 2016 (UTC)
All India Services are services common to the States and the Union. The terminology is from Article 312 of the constitution http://lawmin.nic.in/olwing/coi/coi-english/Const.Pock%202Pg.Rom8Fsss(19).pdf http://lawmin.nic.in/olwing/coi/coi-english/coi-indexenglish.htm which creates the AIS. There is no implication about the status of the AIS vis-a-vis the Central Services, nor the Indian Forest Service vis-a-vis the Indian Foreign Service.
Nagarajan08 ( talk) 21:15, 19 April 2017 (UTC) Nagarajan.
"For example, M. V. Kamath said that the ICS was neither Indian, nor civil nor a service."
Are you sure that it is MV Kamath who told this first? In Glimpses of World History, Jawaharlal Nehru has written (in 1932) -- "Someone has said, ICS is neither Indian, nor civil nor a service". So it has been told before 1932, and MV Kamath is not that old to have said before that. I'll change the MV Kamath reference if there is no objection. -- Sahodaran ( talk) 04:48, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
Please note that the three 'Category A' civil services of Govt. of India as designated by UPSC are:
1. Indian Administrative Service 2. Indian Police Service 3. Indian Foreign Service, not Indian Forest Service.(wrong. see below Gopalan evr 11:12, 18 March 2007 (UTC))
In fact, Forest Service is a lower category service, and has a separate examination and interview conducted by UPSC. It is not a part of the All India Civil Services Examination. Foreign service officers typically hold the ranks of Indian Diplomats in foreign countries Request appropriate correction.
All India Services are created under Article 312 of the Constitution http://lawmin.nic.in/olwing/coi/coi-english/coi-indexenglish.htm and as Mr Gopalan mentions above, are loaned to the State Governments. The nomenclature does not have to do with the physical location of the officers in the Districts or in New Delhi. Nagarajan08 ( talk) 21:19, 19 April 2017 (UTC) Nagarajan.
Would a paragraph about the 7th pay commission discussion on pay parity be in place here? And also about the committee constituted to look into the issue of empanelment - major reform?
Nagarajan08 ( talk) 21:19, 19 April 2017 (UTC) Nagarajan.
Suggestions? We can discuss. Nagarajan08 ( talk) 21:22, 19 April 2017 (UTC)Nagarajan.
This article has a link to a list of IAS officers convicted of corruption , which leads to one further article only about Neera Yadav. How about a category : list of IAS officers ?
Nagarajan08 ( talk) 21:20, 19 April 2017 (UTC) Nagarajan
I have added a section linking to Category: List of IAS officers.
Nagarajan08 ( talk) 07:54, 25 April 2017 (UTC)Nagarajan.
Should this article include cadre strength of each State with persons in place and vacancies? I had made the table but it has been deleted by an anonymous user stating that the table is an internal matter of DOPT and need not be present in an encyclopedia.
Nagarajan08 ( talk) 21:19, 19 April 2017 (UTC)Nagarajan
== I have included the cadre strength of each State since there is no discussion. Please discuss with a name ; do not delete anonymous! Why does someone think it an advertisement or promotion of IAS? An a non-sequitir that Wikipedia is not Indian? Please suggest what can be included to make it a comprehensive A-category article.
S.Nagarajan ( talk) 11:50, 25 April 2017 (UTC)Nagarajan.
The number of years of service to reach a particular level is typical and the minimum required under the IAS Rules. It had been part of the table before I edited it and segregated the State / Central designations. Later it has been deleted by anonymous, with an anecdote about someone they know. Should the column be included or not?
~~Nagarajan.
I have added the column showing number of years required to reach the level based on the IAS Pay Rules 2016, with a note regarding the posts in the Union.
Nagarajan08 ( talk) 07:53, 25 April 2017 (UTC)Nagarajan.
I have added the designations Deputy Commissioner (used e.g. in Punjab), District Collector (used in TN, AP, TS, Maharashtra) which are identical to DM used in UP, Bihar, Bengal. The Collector was the revenue authority created under the appropriate revenue regulation e.g. Madras Collectors Regulation 1803, and the designation District Magistrate is from the Criminal Procedure Code. They both refer to the same post and are vested in the same person. Due to differing focus historically, commonly they are called preferring any one nomenclature.
Nagarajan08 ( talk) 08:15, 25 April 2017 (UTC)Nagarajan.
1. The number of years to reach a particular position is given in the IAS Pay Rules 2016, and also in the service profile document of DOPT. An earlier edit deleted the column 'years of service' stating that the years of service was not the same for posts in the Central government and 'knew someone who became JS in Govt of India in 27 years'. I suggest we can have the years of service without talking about the exceptions. 2. Nomenclature of postings - please see http://persmin.gov.in/ais1/Docs/ServiceProfile.pdf which has the names District Magistrate / District Collector / Deputy Commissioner as an entry on page 2.

Hi, I'm sorry you've had to wait so long for a review. I haven't reviewed the article in detail, but here are a few initial comments:
"often abbreviated to I.A.S., or simply IAS" Do we really need both? I'd suggest simply "abbreviated IAS"
"and is an inseparable part of the executive of the Government of India" I'm not sure what that means. What would be a separable part of the government?
"As such, the bureaucracy remains politically neutral" I'm not sure what the "as such" means here.
"On attaining the apex scale" I'm not sure what that means.
Names of laws should not be italicized.
Why does the history section end in 1951?

Hello, I am planning on reviewing this article for GA Status, over the next couple of days. Thank you for nominating the article for GA status. I hope I will learn some new information, and that my feedback is helpful.
If nominators or editors could refrain from updating the particular section that I am updating until it is complete, I would appreciate it to remove a edit conflict. Please address concerns in the section that has been completed above (If I've raised concerns up to references, feel free to comment on things like the lede.)
I generally provide an overview of things I read through the article on a first glance. Then do a thorough sweep of the article after the feedback is addressed. After this, I will present the pass/failure. I will use strikethrough tags when concerns are met. Even if something is obvious why my concern is met, please leave a message as courtesy.
