message: The math doesn't add up in the article, it's claimed he was claimed to be 122 in 2000 when it's said it's claimed he was born in 1870. It's like it was written 1878 before but someone just made it 1870. --89.127.175.172 (talk) 20:39, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Wrong Link 

message: Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted.
Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.
Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:
*http://www.nowpublic.com/world/oldest-indian-habib-mian-dies-138-yrs
*:Triggered by \bnowpublic\.com\b on the local blacklist
If you would like me to provide more information on the talk page, contact User:Cyberpower678 and ask him to program me with more info.

replies: text: "The oldest Hajj pilgrim"? A serious reference work shouldn't unquestioningly swallow what is obviously unmitigated bullshit. And saying "his claim is disputed" severely understates the case. That's just on a quick glance. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 03:08, 12 December 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Some Good sources to Expand this article 

message: If you see where I redirected the page, it has all the relevant information (minus delusional puffery that makes it seem like this is at all a plausible age claim). There's nowhere near enough material for a standalone article, and the list on longevity myths page provides context for this marginally notable case.
