[Untitled][edit]

List of Nalanda College Colombo alumni (including Nalanda College Colombo Wikipedia page) - is one of the BEST Wikipedia pages that is well referenced, sourced out of whole of Wikipedia School pages.

28/07/2009:

An administrator needs CITATION for the following entries that comes under Judges and Senior Counsel:

Hon. Justice Visty.C.Gunathilake, PC - former Solicitor General, Attorney Generals Department (note:- also listed in Senior Civil Servants and Heads of Government Departments)[citation needed]

Hon.Justice Upawansa Yapa, PC - former Solicitor General, Attorney Generals Department (note:- also listed in Senior Civil Servants and Heads of Government Departments)[citation needed]

Those two entries are also listed under "Senior Civil Servants and Heads of Government Departments" that comes before this section & it is specifically mentioned too.

See below: Senior Civil Servants and Heads of Government Departments

Hon. Justice Visty.C.Gunathilake, PC - former Solicitor General Attorney Generals Department (note:- also listed in Judges and Senior Counsel) [75]

Hon. Justice Upawansa Yapa, PC - former Solicitor General Attorney Generals Department (note:- also listed in Judges and Senior Counsel) [76]

So it will be a repetition of the same citation. Wonder why those administrators can't notice it ?

First, your own statement that "one of the BEST Wikipedia pages that is well referenced, sourced out of whole of Wikipedia School pages" is very inaccurate simply due to the fact that mamy of the persons added here dont fall under the Wikipedia:Notability criteria. That is why the relevant tags have been added. Therefor please clean up the content accordingly. Furthermore sources should be reliable, sources from the institution or associated groups is not considered to be reliable sources. Your may want to look into these matters before claiming what you have.

Secondly the two persons mentioned above have being added as former Solicitor Generals under Senior Civil Servants and Heads of Government Departments, the refs provided state that they were Solicitor Generals, but not that were they from this school. In the case of Judges, due to the use of the title Justice it must be proven that they were Judges, the refs provided earlier does not state such. Due to this it is a repetition of the same person without proper citation, I wonder why you can't notice the difference between a Solicitor General and a Judge.

Finlay it would be better if you could sign your posts. Cossde (talk) 12:54, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
