Clearly unreliable source

Re [1]. The Aziz source, from the "Publications Division of the United Press of Pakistan" is clearly not reliable. And it's not even being attributed in the lede. The number it posits is ridiculous - it's clearly straight up propaganda.

Look, if this number/source is reliable, then it shouldn't be that hard to find another - actually reliable source - to back it up. The fact that there isn't any reliable source which repeats this half-a-million claim is pretty good evidence (in addition to the source itself) that this is junk.

Please don't restore this without consensus or new, actually reliable, sources.Volunteer Marek (talk) 01:48, 15 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

So, what you dont like pretty much becomes unreliable? Sirmila Bose is unreliable, Abdul Mumin is unreliable and so is Aziz, only the POV that you like to push comes with RS, right?—TripWire ︢ ︢ ︡ ︢ ︡ ︢ ︡ ︢ ︡ ︡ ︢ ︡ ^ʞlɐʇ 13:29, 17 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Content that i added

For the content that i have added, one source is a Cambridge University Press published book by scholar Gerlach. The other source "R J Rummel" is referenced on related articles so should be a reliable source for this page too. Also, my edit clearly mentions that"BIHARI REPRESENTATIVES CLAIM a figure of..." I don't see the reason why this not "good enough"? Oye You There (talk) 04:30, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
