Including "blurbs" for Dr Gopin's work is not within Wikipedia guidelines, so they have been deleted.Petropetro (talk) 05:01, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fixing the article/removing templates[edit]

There are four "fix this article" templates on the article. (1) Needs more citations. (2) Sounds like an advertisement. (3) Filled with irrelevant promo information. (4) May have been edited by someone connected to the subject.

(2) and (3) are similar. I'm working to get all of that out of the article, and then also to find additional information about Gopin from RSS, which will address (1). I'm not sure what the rules are for when it is fine to take off the "may have been edited by someone close to the subject" template. If that happened, it is always a historical reality about the article. But once I and others have removed all the advertisement and promotional content and tone, which is probably what was added by a person close to the subject, if indeed a person close to the subject did edit this article, at what point is it considered acceptable to remove a template like that?
