Talk:Karuna Amman

message: Discussion from User:RaveenS page regarding this article. Transfred to here. 
Hello. Regarding your recent changes to several articles about the Sri Lanka conflict, please remember that it is necessary to keep those articles with a NPOV. Adding categories such as "terrorist" and "state terrorist" to them does not keep Wikipedia balanced. We ARE NOT trying to be pro-Sri Lankan government or pro-LTTE, but neutral.

replies: text:  I disagree with that statement because I made those changes NOT JUST to Sri Lanka related articles but to articles regarding India, Indonesia and will be adding to the state terrorism category to actions of the Iraqi government Under Saddam against the Kurdish minority and more. If you have a point to make, the appropriate place to discuss the merits of State terrorism and terrorism is in the appropriate topics. I know about NPOV of Wikipedia and I don’t need to be lectured about it. Terrorism and State terrorism, holocaust, pogroms and genocide are topics that require utmost circumspect but not knee jerk reactions.  RaveenS 12:34, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: PBP, no problems I think you are wrong but we will leave it there. Once a terrorist is always a terrorist:-)) and his organisation is under conssideration by EU to be banned as a terrorist organisation and HR groups such as UTHR(J) have documented the murder of civilians and politicians by his group and UNHCR has accused him of recruiting by force under age kids. Now these are not traits of a normal human mind is it ? RaveenS 12:33, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

message: I just reinserted a section that had been blanked with the summary "deleting POV / biased text". This is not in accordance with WP policies. WP:NPOV states: "The policy requires that, where there are or have been conflicting views, these should be presented fairly." However, I am not sure if the source is RS. If there is no reliable source for this section then it should be removed per WP:N and WP:V. — Sebastian 05:55, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  I readded the association with the SLA of this page. This is backed up by RS and there is nothing this sentence that violates WP:Undue. The HR section only covers what Karuna himself has set up (Or rather allegations). Do not remove without full explanation and then consensus. Watchdogb 12:57, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

message: This discussion is with reference to the following sentence.
He has been elected an Sri Lankan Member of Parliament supported by the ruling party of Mahinda Rajapakse Renegade sworn in as Sri Lanka MP BBC BBC News - October 8, 2008.
The reference [1], a BBC news item, states that Colonel Karuna was appointed as a Member of Parliament in Sri Lanka; there was no evidence that indicates his election by voters of any constituency in Sri Lanka. Since it is a minor change, I proceed with making this change, and if it is not acceptable others may remove this change.

message: On his "alleged association", I removed the section for a couple of reasons:
# He is a member of the government now
# It comments on the "Karuna Group" not on any abuses by Thiru. Muralitharan himself
