What?
Article wizard/ was a ridiculous title for an article. But since the content was a very long way from being a Wikipedia article, I simply deleted it. Now read this. &mdash; RHaworth 19:35, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Please read what I have written. I only said that the title of article wizard/ was ridiculous - as the log clearly shows, that was the name you gave to the page. You do not provide a title within the page text - the page name appears as the title - as I say below, study some articles first. How many Wikipedia articles have you actually read? Before you do any writing, find five articles here on similar subjects to what you are writing about, study them closely. Click on the "edit" tab and examine their wiki markup. Problems with your article: it was about ten times too long - aim for 2k bytes absolute max. for the first version. It was an essay not an encyclopedia article - that is why I say study first. There was no proper introduction - apparently it is about a book - that should be stated in the first sentence. There were no links to significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources. Draft your article in User:Aroonc1/sandbox and when it is ready, submit it via AfC. Another hint - when you create links, make ones that work! Not as in this edit. (If you want to publish as a 20k byte essay, do so on your own website or try Wikia.) &mdash; RHaworth 12:25, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

It is series of books fore worded by a Judge of International court of justice and 2 former and one sitting Judge of supreme court of India as mentioned in the article,it is unreasonable to find it ridiculous this being my reason for being surprised.Further if you did not find the content upto standard kindly suggest what element of content you found to be not worthy so that it might be corrected. I eagerly await your reply so that this article is very important to me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aroonc1 (talk • contribs)

Venugopal (INTRODUCTION) who has giveni a well deserved accolade to the work. L.M. Singhvi, M.P., Sr. Adv., Supreme Court; Ex-Indian High Commisioner to U.K. Through his words, he calls to our instinctive desires for "Liberty, Equality & Freternity" at a level of emotion deeper than words can convey.

The writing - reminiscent of Walt Whitman - reflects the author's deep faith and commitment to the ideals of the Constitution. It's encouraging to see a thinker/writer/activist, who is also a teacher of English Literature, bringing to his philosophy of life the humanism of Literature as well as upholding the tenets of justice, liberty and the dignity of the individyal, particularly so at a time when cynicism and self-aggrandisement are asserting themselves among the people, and the political parties, respectively.

The creative orientation and definition of law as forwarded by Dr. Jha incorporates the conceptual framework regarding it propounded by the Indian sages and philosophers who were the law givers of the ancient Indian society.

Hon'ble Mr. Justice K.G. Balakrishnan, Chief Justice of Supreme Court of India In the classical traditions of ancient India, the medium of verse was preferred over prose as the more appropriate vehicle of enlightened thought. The Muse of Poetry was adopted when work of a comparatively enduring nature was contemplated. In choosing that medium, the author has made a deliberate choice. Mr. Justice R.S. Pathak, Former Chief Justice of India and Member Inernational Court of Justice at Hague His previous book of poetry entitled People, the Constitution and its pillars was not only well recieved, it won praise from statesmen, jurists, politicians and itntellectuals the world over and is now in its third edition.
