About Balwant Thakur
Hi Roohisingh, and again welcome to Wikipedia.

Thank you for writing about Balwant Thakur. The Hindu verifies that he was awarded the Padma Shri in February 2013. The Wikipedia web page (in Wikipedia jargon, "article") appears to include a lot of information copied and pasted from other internet sites. I'll try to my best to fix this up.

Any questions at all, please do feel to ask me. I'm Peter aka --Shirt58 (talk) 09:32, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Balwant Thakur


The article Balwant Thakur has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. -- Patchy1   07:43, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

Do not remove Biographies of Living Persons PRODs from articles without addressing the issue, as you did with Balwant Thakur. You are, however, welcome to comment about the proposed deletion on the respective talk page instead. Thank you. -- Patchy1   23:40, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
