Anu Haasan

In response to your message regarding Anu Hasan: I'm not adding information; I'm requesting a citation, in accordance with standard WP:BLP procedures.

I've requested a source for the date of Anu Hasan's wedding, since the date was altered and the references supporting a more recent wedding were removed. You removed the {{Citation request}} tag; I restored it because the sentence still needs a reference. I suggest you cite your source if you have one. If you don't, the info doesn't belong, per WP:BLP guidelines. AtticusX (talk) 18:41, 5 February 2011 (UTC) Back)]] 11:15, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Original research

Your intent to improve the article's accuracy is appreciated and I sympathize with your position. Nonetheless, your close personal connection to Anu Hasan and status as a participant in the event doesn't change the fact that all material added to Wikipedia ultimately needs to be attributable to a reliable published source. Verifiability, not truth, is the threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia. If you cannot find a single published source that supports your information, then the best we can do is abstain from mentioning it. Wikipedia does not allow original research (first-hand information), for a variety of reasons. I encourage you to familiarize yourself with the guidelines, especially WP:OR, WP:V, and WP:COI.

Anu Haasan/Anu Hasan

Please do not copy/paste articles in order to undo a move. Such operations remove the editing history of the article. Instead, please discuss the matter on the talk page, get a consensus on the proper spelling, and then request that the move be done. If you need a third opinion on the matter, please ask for one. Thank you. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 17:43, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Please stop editing and leaving me so many rapid fire messages. I am looking into the issue, but your constant reverting and messages are not helping. I am looking into the issue, but you need to slow down and stop for a moment. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 20:54, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Re your message: Thank you for slowing down. I have looked into the issue.

I have asked you to stop copying and pasting the article back and forth while this issue is being resolved, so please do not do that again.. Copying and pasting is not the correct way to solve the problem.

Secondly, please do not post private email addresses on Wikipedia. I have struck the email address from my talk page.

I will be happy to solve the issue, but you need slow down to follow certain procedures first. The first issue is that while you claim you are Graham Jay, I don't know for sure that you really are. You will need to identify yourself to the Volunteer Response Team with a verifiable email address should you chose to. Please go through the Volunteer Response Team, not me.

As for the spelling, the problem is that all references are inconsistent, even the official website for the Koffee with Anu show. One page it is spelled "Haasan". A second page is spelled "Hasan". And finally, a third page is spelled Hassan. If the official website can spell it three different ways, you can see how there may be some confusion over the correct spelling. The best way to resolve this is to correctly identify yourself through the Volunteer Response Team by following the instructions at Wikipedia:Contact us/Article problem/Factual error (from subject). -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 21:15, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Re your message: Yes, that does add a great deal of weight to that spelling. I really do not doubt that Hasan is the preferred spelling, but the problem is one of verifiability. With the official website having three different spellings, people may question the actual spelling. So you could either have the official website corrected, which you probably want to have to do no matter what, and then use that as a source to correct the article name or follow the instructions from my previous message. The instructions from above will settle the matter just as well. I am sorry you are getting the run around, but if you do not get it done the right way, somebody is likely to change it back on you like how it has happened. If you get it done right, nobody should change it. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 18:54, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
