[edit] Wrong Date of Birth for Indu Shahani

Copied from Talk:Nichalp I noticed that you have reverted edits, on Indu Shahanis date of birth, which I had corrected. Her date of birth was mentioned wrongly as March 19 which I changed to July 17. Since the past 5 years I have been her student and have celebrated her birthday with her on July 17. The references cited are totally WRONG. I thought that wikipedia was an encyclopedia to be relied upon, not a misguiding collection of information. If you do not trust people who edit your articles, how can you trust websites which are mentioned as references? How is the credibility of your source determined? Is a wikipedian, who has first hand information lower in trust value, than an external site? Have the editors, or you as an editor verified the reference / source which is giving this information? --Ruzbehraja (talk) 15:03, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

I'm not arguing about her birth date. The date you mention may be right, but here on Wikipedia we go by cited sources. See WP:CITE. We do not go by uncredible sources, yes, you might know her personally but your word of mouth does not make it credible. Please see the wikipedia policies framed.
