G. G. Ponnambalam
On 12 January 2008 you changed the birth and death dates for G. G. Ponnambalam. The existing reference, One Hundred Tamils of the 20th Century - G.G. Ponnambalam Q.C. 1902 - 1977 by Appathuray Vinayagamoorthy, contained the dates as originally specified. Do you have a reliable source for the change in dates and for the change in educational history? I assume that you are aware of the Wikipedia policy contained in No original research. --Bejnar (talk) 17:35, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Pending provision of a source, I have changed his birth and death dates back. --Bejnar (talk) 01:08, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on File:Thurai with Medals.JPG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F10 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a file that is not an image, sound file or video clip (e.g. a Word document or PDF file) that has no encyclopedic use.

File source problem with File:Thurai with Medals.JPG
Thank you for uploading File:Thurai with Medals.JPG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a [ list of your uploads]. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — ξ xplicit  01:01, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
