Regarding your comments on Talk:Vishwakarma (caste): Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks will lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Abecedare (talk) 06:07, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Indiawale (talk) 18:10, 2 March 2009 (UTC) User Abecedare thank you for the reminder. I would keep this in mind and request you to do the same.[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Prevention of Terrorist Activities Act, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Additionally, the information must be specifically relating to POTA, not general corruption in India. External links should be related to POTA as well. Also comments such as "Indian police and judiciary is one of the most corrupt in the world" must be cited. Barkeep^{Chat | $} 18:02, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Indiawale (talk) 18:10, 2 March 2009 (UTC) User Barkeep, I had cited sources regarding corruption in India police, did you not check the links I included?[reply]

I checked the links and I only found one of them mentioning POTA. That link and the info it contained was moved up in the article. Again, this article is not solely about police corruption. Any mention of corruption should be in direct relation to POTA. Additionally, please review WP:V, WP:MOS, and WP:CITE on proper ways to make citations.Barkeep^{Chat | $} 18:28, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Vishwakarma

Thanks for refactoring your comment on the article talk page. I'll list the problems I see with the article in the next 24 hours or so. Abecedare (talk) 18:44, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As requested, I have listed some of the article issues at Talk:Vishwakarma_(caste)#Article_issues. Abecedare (talk) 00:22, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Shubha Raul

Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living persons, as you did to Shubha Raul. Thank you. Abecedare (talk) 18:47, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

User Abecedare I am providing references below: There is a high percentage of people from the medical profession in the RSS. The founder of RSS, Dr. Keshava Baliram Hedgewar was a medical professional. He got his MBBS degree from Kolkata. The Bharat Swayamsewak Mandal was headed by Dr. Laxman V. Paranjape, a doctor. There are many more examples.

Regarding Shiv Sena targeting people whom they tag as 'outsiders', please check the references citied in the following article - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiv_Sena
Let me know if you want me to call out these references separately in this article.

Indiawale, while your intentions may be fine, I think you are not yet familiar with wikipedia's standards for sources and content. Please read the following policies:

Verifiability,
No original research, including the section on synthesis
Neutral point of view.

These will help explain why your edits on Shubha Raul were inappropriate, and also why the Vishwakarma (caste) article is in poor state by wikipedia standards. Finally, note that, by wikipedia convention, signatures ("the four tildes"; ~~~~)are added at the end of talk-page messages, and not at the beginning (I have moved your signature in the message above, for illustration). Cheers. 17:16, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
