Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions, including your edits to Sayyid Ahmed Amiruddin. However, please be aware of Wikipedia's policy that biographical information about living persons must not be libelous. Any controversial statements about a living person added to an article, or any other Wikipedia page, must include proper sources. Thank you. Please do not make those sort of changes to the article again. Shell babelfish 09:23, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
- There's a couple of problems with the notes you left me. First of all, saying "well I know these things are true" isn't sufficient to put the information in a Wikipedia article; in fact, Wikipedia policy specifically forbids what we call original research of this kind - you (and anyone else) must be able to provide a reliable source for the information added to articles especially when dealing with biographies of living people. The website of a "former student" and you tube videos are not likely to be considered reliable sources; you need to use mainstream sources such as reliable newspapers, journals, magazines or the like.
- After looking at the article a bit more, I realized that the majority of it is completely unsourced, so I have set the article back to a stub. You (and anyone else) will need to provide a reliable source for any information re-added to the article. If you continue to re-add defamatory information without providing an ironclad reliable source, you will be subject to being blocked. We take biographies of living people very seriously - please read WP:BLP. If he is really not notable, the correct way to deal with the problem is to use the deletion process, not hack up the article. Shell babelfish 21:49, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
