Unfortunately not having access to a source does not mean that you can replace it with a website that does not meet WP's requirements for referencing. I have reverted your changes - kindly read the core policies of
WP:V and
WP:RELY before removing references again. Thank you. Socrates2008 (Talk) 08:45, 17 June 2012 (UTC)reply
I did not "replace it" with another reference. I just have no idea what that reference says (and neither do you). I have no idea what part of the wiki article this book reference relates to. Which reference that I added are not reliable (and why not)? --

On what grounds do you base your assumption that I don't know what the ref says? The page you added does not meet WP's requirements for
reliability as the site's publisher and editor are unknown, and also not recognised authorities on this subject. Socrates2008 (Talk) 10:29, 20 June 2012 (UTC)reply
Thumbsucking
There is too much thumbsucking in the article and it's not exactly NPOV.
