Talk:Sri Lanka Navy

message: The tone of this section is not worded neutrally.
I understand that this is a highly emotional issue for both Tamil and Sinhala peoples but this 
is wikipedia and a neutral point of view policy has to be maintained. 
As an outside observer it seems BOTH SIDES are in breach of the cease-fire and innocents have died on both sides.As a result there seems to be continuous claims and counter claims about who did what
and why and so on!
Pages about military forces should only contain reliable details about the history,command structure, equipment and operations in a non-biased way.
Any alleged breaches of human rights should be documented with reliable sources(example:United Nations or Amnesty International)with no hearsay or speculation.Place links to the content so that people can make their own minds up!
Suggestions
The section should be labelled "List of alleged human rights breaches by SL Navy" or something similiar.
Reliable reference sources should be given and NOT from pro-government or pro-LTTE sites/sources.
The language is too direct and should be rewritten to something like"The SL navy is believed to have
been involved in the following incidents...." followed by unbiased reference sources to back up these claims.
:: The are absolutely no reliable references given for the alleged atrocities by the SLN. As the above post states alleged breaches of human rights should be documented with reliable sources (example:United Nations or Amnesty International) NOT pro-LTTE websites.
:: Until then I'm removing all stated instances and only keeping it as "The Sri Lanka Navy (SLN) is alleged to have committed human rights breaches against the Tamil community in the island during the Ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka" and marking it as a stub .  --snowolfd4 17:41, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Atrocities

message: If you view the Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM) as pro LTTE then you are correct. 
The fact in the church attack in Pesalai was not simply alleged, it was proven.
Youa re correct, both sides are violating CFA.
As this page is about Sri Lanka Navy (SLN), only those violations by the SLN can be mentioned.
If the Sea Tigers are violating, then that would be under Sea Tigers.
Wikipedia is not a propaganda site, at the same time it can not also become a recruitment page for the ever so wonderful angels that are the Sri Lanka Navy (SLN) 99% Sinhala - according to government figures. Unless you want to call the government pro-LTTE as well. Check www.statistics.lk

thread_title:  If the SLMM is pro LTTE then you are correct 

message: For people to understand the conflict in its proper context and also the wide-ranging historical roots, they must know the ethnic makeup of the country’s armed forces. 
Some may wonder how and why low ranking SLN officers are able to rape and murder innocent Tamil civilians with impunity. 
LTTE has violated CFA from time to time. I am not denying that. However, the section on Sri Lanka Navy should not be filled with CFA violations by the LTTE. 
A comprehensive article on the SLN should feature atrocities committed by the SLN. These should include massacres such as Kumuthuni Boat Massacre from before large scale ethnic conflict; Kilali Massacres which were during the height of the war and more recently massacres of families during the CFA period.
:Again please sign your comments, and as the above user said without proper impartial evidence those cannot be presented. Also the word attrocity carries inherent non neutral bias with it, please refrain from its use.Pubuman 19:59, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

message: A branch formed recently to augment the land combat capabilities of SLN. Effectively members of this branch are soldiers of the navy performing the role of naval infantry. Originally limited for base and harbors security. In recent years Naval Patrolmen have taken parting offensive and defensive operations against the LTTE in conjunction with the army or independently, using both infantry and light armored units.It was originally formed by the late Commander Shanti Bahar who was KIA at kinniya in January 1986,who was the only Naval Officer to receive the Presidents Trophy for Marksmanship at the Pistol Firing Meet in 1984 for which he received a Point 45 Pistol. 
this should be added to a article of its own. Cossde (talk) 12:37, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
