[edit] Catholic source

Just because the source is catholic news does not make it bias towards the LTTE. It basically states what has happened before. Only time a catholic news' report is bias is if it has anything related to the religion. However, in this case it does not.Watchdogb 19:40, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

PS talking off this is considered vandalism now that I added another source. I might even follow in the footstep of Jayg :) Watchdogb 20:25, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Removal of external links

The removal of the Transcurrent article is in violation of WP:RS self published. David Jeyaraj is a notable journalist who still writes for Frontline and other Sri lankan newspapers. His work can be quoted nased on WP:RS self publsihed. ThanksTaprobanus 15:52, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

  • In WP:EL#Links normally to be avoided says: Links to blogs and personal web pages, except those written by a recognized authority.
  • And WP:SPS says: Anyone can create a website or pay to have a book published, then claim to be an expert in a certain field. For that reason, self-published books, personal websites, and blogs are largely not acceptable as sources. But Self-published material may, in some circumstances, be acceptable when produced by an established expert on the topic of the article whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable third-party publications.
I think we can have a better article without that link and we can use our valuable time for more productive works on Wikipedia than arguing for the reliability of someone's blog in here. --♪♫ ĽąĦĩŘǔ ♫♪ walkie-talkie 16:34, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
It is 10:55 PM in Sri Lanka and because we have nothing better to do, that's whay we are in Wikipedia -:( but I think I have a case and you disagree we should take it to the appropriate dispute resolution step. Thanks Taprobanus 16:57, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
