Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you.--John (talk) 21:24, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

- You or I might well think so, but on Wikipedia we use reliable sources and the neutral point of view to write our articles, not our own opinions. --John (talk) 20:51, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Welcome, and thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test on the page Vijayanth Thapar worked, and it has been reverted or removed. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment further, please use the sandbox or show preview button. Being too "India biased" is not a good reason to blank/delete an article. Cunard (talk) 04:36, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
