Untitled[edit]

I have removed the categorisation of me as a Sri Lankan/Tamil as it is essentially inaccurate. I was born in the UK to Sri Lankan parents, one Tamil and one Sinhalese, and have lived in the UK for my entire life. I don't know what the policy is as regards ethnicity versus nationality when categorising into countries, but I certainly feel that the categorisation I deleted which omits any mention of Sinhalese and British heritage is inaccurate.

Inadequate reference[edit]

The only footnote leads to a press cutting that refers to his "A"-level pass -- but the footnote is attached to the vague claim that he "graduated" (from where? in what?) at the age of thirteen. I've removed the reference to graduation (not only because it's unsupported, but because it's too vague to be at all informative), and left the note attached to the relevant material. --87.112.244.29 (talk) 21:33, 22 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
