[edit] your edits to Gandhi
Hi Saiswa - I'd appreciate it if you joined the "peer review" on Mahatma Gandhi talk page where we're discussing reforming the article. Please do not make big changes w/o discussion, becoz it will affect the FA standards of this article. For example, the creation of a new Criticism of Gandhi article is a drastic step - another such branched article is being voted for deletion right now - and you should have talked about your views on the peer review page.

- I'd like to clarify that I respect you and your work - my open discussion of your work was never meant to be demeaning or insulting (a lot of people mistake stuff like this as insulting). Your edits were good ideas, but need to be discussed first. I'd always recommend that you should have a factual basis (provide references) for your insertions, and discuss major changes to an article (including creating forks). One should mostly respect the content of an FA coz its been proven the best. Your edits to Muhammad Ali Jinnah (not an FA though) for example - you asserted that Jinnah's dying words spoke of regret of the whole partition thing - that's a pretty big and mostly undigestable claim - only defendable with a directly accessible and credible source. Anywayz, good luck and take care. Rama's Arrow 09:17, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
