Wording

It would not be the first time he has done so, but sockpuppeteer By78 has introduced wording into this article in accordance with his anti-India bias with the justification that it is worded as such in an Economist article (that Arthur Cotton is still worshipped as a God). According to a [published biography] of him, he is an "honored, almost worshipped" entity. I consider his biography a more reliable and quotable source than a news publication which tangentially touches on this person. GSMR (talk) 06:06, 1 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. I don't think the entry should be changed without consensus. That is unless By78 wants his third block? Vedant (talk) 03:37, 3 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article needs to be revamped

This article needs to be revamped. It is far too incoherent right now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sarat Chandra M (talk • contribs) 02:36, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Then please propose suggestions or make the edits yourself. Blanking of an entire section is not the way to edit or improve an article. Thanks, Vedant (talk) 04:53, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
