References[edit]

Don't understand why the references were deleted. The person is quite notable. Search on Google for notability. SmackoVector (talk) 07:17, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The sources provided were not reliable, as they were on user-edited sites like amazon, were biographies supplied by the subject of the article, and a search listing of books. If the subject is notable, you will need to find reliable sources to support the content of the article. Please also see biographies of a living person. I am more than happy to help you if you have any questions, and you may ask me on my talk page. Best wishes Flat Out let's discuss it 07:25, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The amazon source was an editor's review. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SmackoVector (talk • contribs) 07:31, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The source http://www.whoislog.info/profile/e-balagurusamy.html mirrors wikipedia. Whatever is posted here will be reflected there, so unfortunately it's not reliable. http://upscportal.com/ has a bio that is supplied by the subject of the article, so it can't be used. http://www.amazon.com/dp/0070678138 I could be wrong about so let's leave that there for now.

Sorry for http://www.whoislog.info/profile/e-balagurusamy.html. Missed to see the Wikipedia link below. I can't find any clue which suggests that http://upscportal.com/civilservices/forum/profile-upsc-member-professor-e-balagurusamy is supplied by the person himself. All I can find is the editor's name i.e. IASguru and not E. balagurusamy. SmackoVector (talk) 10:25, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
