Proposed content

Dear editors, below I have listed proposed changes to the Anasuya Shankar article, along with valid sources. I will be grateful for your assistance in determining if these changes and citations meet wikipedia standards. All the sources have been published and are verifiable. Much of the information is obtained from published articles in the media and newspapers, several books who's authors have done extensive research on Anasuya, published theses that have done research on Anasuya and Kannada writers (which you can even find online) and Anasuya's own novels as well (which have all been published). I have cited almost every sentence.

Therefore, the information from these sources are reliable, verifiable, and accurate, and obtained from original research that has already been done. They are from third party sources, and no primary sources of reference have been used.

However, the revisions I have made before keep getting reverted back by one of the wikipedia editors, for reason that I have apparently not referenced every major assertion with reliable, verifiable, third party sources. He suggested that I discuss with other editors on my talk page for more opinions. Therefore I would be very appreciative if you could let me know your thoughts on these citations and I could move forward with the proposed changes.

I have referenced every sentence and included the citations. I have given several citations for certain statements. In case needed, I can additionally add the citations for all her published books to provide evidence that those books exist and are published. In case there are any statements subjective in nature, do let me know as well. Do let me know your thoughts, and with assistance I can then move forward with the changes. Thank you very much for the help. Trivenishankar 09:12, 23 July 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trivenishankar (talk • contribs)

You've make kind of a mess of the talk page. Please don't paste material in here like that. We can see what you're proposing in the article history, or you can make a subpage. Please don't write in boldface, it's difficult to read. I made some comments about your proposal at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Biography. Kendall-K1 (talk) 12:39, 24 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The "kind of mess" that Kendall-K1 is talking about was that the whole of Trivenishankar's message as preserved above was in bold. In addition Trivenishankar had included 16k bytes of a variant draft of the article itself - its content can be judged from Triv's edits, now reverted, to the article. I would be willing to restore the offending edits but I think they should stay deleted to emphasise to Triv that we do not clutter talk pages in that way. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 08:45, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
