PARTY WEBSITES ARE DEAD LINKS THAT DO NOT WORK
THE LINKS WILL NOW BE REMOVED —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.247.102.57 ( talk) 17:48, 17 October 2008 (UTC) Karuna faction overruns Pillayan's office REPORTED BY TAMILNET AND (BBC NEWS SINHALA)RADIO —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.247.102.57 ( talk) 17:57, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
- Break up within TMVP should be added as well as TMVP claims that the group is together under Sri Lanka —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.247.102.57 ( talk) 18:00, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
Changed from LTTE leader to Miltary Head of Batticaloa district
This was the official title of Karuna while he was in LTTE.
LTTE has wings, or sections for each one of its activitis. In this sence the second level leaders are the onesin charge of each of the wings.
Then it has third level leaders who are heads of each of the wings at the district level.
In 2004 Karuna was the head of Military wing in for Batticaloa distrct. He was one of eight district level military heads.
It is wrong to say Karuna fights for East, beacause east includes Trincomalee. Karuna says that he is for Batticaloa, even theough he was chased out of Batticaloa by Jeyanthan Regiment which is from Batticaloa.
WRONG INFORMATION
"The TMVP is an unregistered political party in Sri Lanka. The party has discarded the "tiger" emblem, the armed struggle for a separate state and decided in 2007 to use the 'fish' as its election symbol, capitalizing on the fame of the 'Batticaloa singing fish'. " Did you think no one will notice your act of vandalism. I will change the information.
--CORRECT INFORMATION---
TMVP won local elections in the east as stated by the BBC and Tamilnet. The groups logo has changed but still contain the tiger. TMVP is an ally of Rajapaksa's government. TMVP candidates won under United People’s Freedom Alliance banner.
The largest tamil party Tamil National Alliance totally boycotting these polls. United National party (UNP) also boycotted the polls. Both groups claim unfair elections took place. TNA claimed it wasn't safe for them to operate in the east because the TMVP group was armed. TMVP threatened TNA MP's and also captured alive family members of TNA MP prior to the elections.
This article presents only one-sided criticisms of the TMVP, and contains absolutely no references of their responses to these allegations. It also presents various unproven allegations by "human rights groups" as hard fact, which compromises the accurqacy of the article. Some of the sources used are also questionable, as per WP:REDFLAG extraordinary clams require "high-quality reliable sources". For example the sentence in the UTHR report "We learnt from religious leaders that..." has been related as a proven fact in the article.
Other errors include in the opening paragraph,
which is just plain, not correct. -- snowolfD4 ( talk / @ ) 18:59, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
Also senteces like
are just ridiculous and unbecomming of a Wikipedia article. -- snowolfD4 ( talk / @ ) 19:01, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

I removed 2 paragraphs from the intro. First, the part that says the TMVP works with the SLA is redundant, as it is already made clear in 2 other places in the intro, "Initially a paramilitary group that helped the Sri Lankan Government fight the Tamil Tigers" and "Members of the TMVP continue to carry arms under the auspices of the Sri Lankan government".
Second, the intro is a concise summery of the remainder of the article. Just as all their achievements/good deeds should not be listed in the intro, neither should all the allegations against them. Saying they have been accused of violating human rights should be sufficient, as there is an entire section covering the topic later in the article. -- snowolfD4 ( talk / @ ) 10:52, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
