Dear
John Reaves, I left you message on your TalkPage about blanking huge sections of this article. Whilst I agree with some general clean-up you performed, I do not agree with mass deletion of content, especially from an Admin of your experience. I am sure you have noticed that all "allegations or claims" are properly referenced and the source is media news. Please discuss before mass removal of content. Cheers AKS
It's clear that Arunsingh16 isn't exactly up on Wikipedia policy. Rather than threatening to block, I'd like to suggest that I might be more productive if you took a moment to explain why those sources aren't reliable. You don't have to go over all of them; it'll be sufficiently education if you just pick two or three. The upside is that, if they understand your explanation, they will understand why you keep reverting and this will diffuse the situation.
I haven't checked the sources and I have no opinion on the content in dispute. However, the English in this article is terrible. It's obvious that much of it was written by editors for whom English is not a primary language. Perhaps, after the dust has settled over these BLP issues, we could work to make the article more intelligible.
Hello
MilesMoney. Thanks for your feedback. I only have one doubt; if you are saying that you haven't checked the sources and hence have no opinion on the dispute then how can you suggest that I am not upto the Policy? I request you to read my reply in
this when you have time. I have explained by point what wrong actions did Admin take as far as this article is concerned. Cheers AKS
