The entry is riddled with too many unubstantiated claims, 'youngest successful author' being one, and many statements that seem to be included only to praise Basu liberally, while providing no factual information at all. This is not a newspaper article, it's an encylopaedia entry. Why is there so little factual information provided about his books? The section reads more like a glowing review than an unbiased description of their contents. Possibly this entire entry has been written by Basu himself or someone close to him. Also, almost the entire entry is backed only by information supposedly taken from his own blog/website, with no direct links to the specific points and there are no third-party sources linked to substantiating the claims. Have done some minor editing to remove obvious self-praise and adulation but the article overall still needs major rewriting. Am not familiar with Basu or his work so will someone who knows of dependable sources please correct the imbalance. I am a douche. Browndog72 ( talk) 18:39, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
