Talk:Purushottam Das Tandon

message: Hi, before I created the main page of this article, I noticed that there was a long delete history of 3 edits for copyright violation. (See WP:CP) It is sad that a distinguished recipient of Bharat Ratna was unrepresented on Wikipedia so long. Kindly ensure that all comments made are verifiable, NPOV and cited. Most importantly, please keep off copyright violations. Thanks...Gurubrahma 09:57, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

message: This anon IP is the same as the last anon IP, make no mistake. And if I'm not mistaken, it is the same fellow who called Wikipedia names when he could not handle the pressure on some of the pages he created. He announced grandly on a couple of user talk pages that he is giving up editing and that he has better things to do. tens of millions of people is extreme POV. While the writing style sparkles in places, it doesn't add new facts, but brings in fresh perceptions in the garb of facts. You can use Rajmohan Gandhi's Patel for facts, not for bringinging the point of view that the author espouses in that book. --Gurubrahma 10:11, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

message: Hello Gurubrahma,
I'm writing this to say that you were right - it was me giving you a little headache with the Purushottam Das Tandon article. And yes, I didn't have the stomach to get through the edit wars on Mahatma Gandhi, Gandhism. Furthermore, it was me removing your fancruft notice on the Gandhism article.
Its true that I've had my problems with you. I wasn't man enough to admit that your spirited and aggressive participation in Wikipedia was actually scaring me, as if there was something mentally wrong with me and my outlook on the world, and ability to communicate with other people. I think I got into Wikipedia totally for the wrong reasons.
I actually hate bitching, so I want to just say that you've been a good teacher - you've helped me understand my faults, and understand the hidden mistakes in my edits on various articles.
I wish you good luck on Wikipedia and your life. Go ahead and revert this article to its normal position. 
Har Har Mahadev!
Nirav Maurya.
:Hi Nirav, all the best for your future endeavours. I would like to take this oportunity to commend you for starting articles such as Indian Nationalism and Gandhism, though I may not agree with the content in them. As for the reasons for reverting your edits, they are as follows: - freedom fighter includes national political leader - intro shdn't be too long. Rajarshi is correct usage. We don't translate the first names of Mohan das and Jawahar on Mahatma Gandhi and Nehru. Why here? rmved all see also as they don't directly tie-in to the article. A separate see-also section added. The wording of his being born at Allahabad suggests that Allahabad is now Uttar Pradesh. rmved overwiki of Allahabad. Constituent assembly implies that it is a body to frame constitution. Anyway, it is linked. Almost every leader opposed the alliance with Muslim League is Unencyclopedic tone. While some other leaders may hv opposed it, Tandon was at the forefront of this opposition. True disciple, tens of millions of people and the references to later congress presidents not having integrity - are POV. Thanks and regards, --Gurubrahma 12:59, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

message: He worked as the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly of the present-day Uttar Pradesh for a period of 13 years, from July 31, 1937 to August 10, 1950
::Hi - I want to ask you, does this statement mean Tandon did not resign in 1939 with the World War II outbreak, or take part in Quit India? According to R. Gandhi, all elected Congressmen resigned in 1939 when the INC protested the unilateral insertion of India into the conflict, and did not return to office until elections in 1946. For a man who became Congress president in 1950, I consider this highly unlikely as he would have no esteem left in the party if he hadn't resigned. Rama's Arrow 22:24, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
