Edi dispute
I have protected this article because of the edit dispute surrounding it. Please work out all differences on this talk page. And while I am not supporting any particular edit or version of the article, I would like to hear Zamkudi's reasons for repeatedly deleting the vast majority of this article. While WP:BLP does permit the immediate removal of unsourced negative info, unsourced neutral or positive material is generally not removed in bulk from an article (and not all of the removed info was unsourced). I should add, though, that Zamkudi does not appear to have gutted the article prior to the AfD (as another user claimed on AN) and likewise, all sides in this edit dispute appear to be operating in good faith. So let's keep everything civil.--Alabamaboy 12:06, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
CSD
Removed this CSD, because the article doesn't qualify for CSD. It has already survived a deletion discussion. utcursch | talk 12:10, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
Reverting bad faith edits
Shres nh7 (talk) 15:06, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
- I looked over your changed and have reverted them. In particular, you added unsourced material to the article. Text must be backed up by reliable sources, especially when the article is a biography of a living person.
- I don't think anybody has edited this article in bad faith. It is possible to add back some or all of your changes, but I suggest getting more sources and discussing the changes here. —C.Fred (talk) 15:25, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
- I find that this article has become a battle ground, and certain elements appear to play here and destroying the content of this page. An example is charging me with "bad faith" by Shres nh7 in his edit summary [1] while I had just changed a heading from "Music and Entertainment" to "Music and entertainment". This indicates that these elements do not care to see anything but appear to have an agenda to destroy this article. As such, I am seeing the recent edits to this article, selecting a suitable version, and protect the article till all issues are resolved. --Bhadani (talk) 15:47, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
- I may also add that Shres nh7 created an account here within 13 minutes of my edit to Atul Chitnis and "ponced" on this page immediately !!! --Bhadani (talk) 15:56, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
- I don't think Shres nh7 edited with malice/in bad faith, although (s)he may have a conflict of interest with the subject. This administrator has added this page to his watchlist. —C.Fred (talk) 16:04, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

Improving citations
Hi all, I was involved in cleaning up this article in 2006 through my role in the cleanup taskforce. Atul asked me by email to come back and look at it in light of the recent excisions. Ideally sources can be found for much of the content that Vivekvc has removed and much of the content that JFHJr has tagged citation-needed. Anyone who doesn't want to edit the article themselves (this particularly includes Atul) is welcome to use this space to propose citations for particular facts, and I will add them to the article. Canderson7 (talk) 06:50, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
- I've replaced some content that was removed previously, some likely for WP:BLPSPS reasons, other stuff I'm not sure why. I didn't find the BLPSPS to involve issues of third parties or self-serving (notability) claims, so I didn't see a reason to exclude or even tag them. Another cite that was removed did indeed provide reliable coverage to the subject, and spoke to his professional activities, and wasn't self-serving at all. (See also WP:NNC) I'm glad Canderson started this section, and I hope others can find more reliable references to improve the content here. JFHJr (㊟) 08:27, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
Removed some sections that did not seem to have relevant citations from non primary sources, removed a photo that was not of much relevance to this article. Most of the citations seem to have been linked to Atul's personal website and blog and also the domain comversations.com owned by Atul himself which have been removed siting lack of non primary sources, and the article has also been shortened and made to reflect a netural point of view.

Hello Vivekvc. A link to an external resource is considered "dead" or "broken" if the page that it once linked to is no longer available. The following edits, made by you, removed links as "dead" or "broken" when they were not:
The fact that you were making this mistake was pointed out to you here. Yet you reverted JFHJr's correction without explanation. I agree with you that much of the material in the article has been poorly cited, but removing valid citations while leaving misleading edit summaries does not improve the quality of the article. Can you please explain why you have done this? If this is a mistake, please revert to the version that preceded your excisions. Canderson7 (talk) 07:15, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
