Thanks SwisterTwister. Added the references and removed the heading. As it relates to an ongoing event, I assume the article should improve significantly. Punjcoder (talk) 03:02, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

Copyright violations

Please be aware that copyright violations are a strict no-no on wikipedia (read WP:COPYVIO). This story is still unfolding and I'd much rather that IP editors continue to edit the page but, if the violations continue, the page will be semi protected. --regentspark (comment) 13:21, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Casualties

There where 16 other deaths in the suicide bombing, it's important that this is addressed so the article does not appear bias to Balwant Singh. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.142.170.70 (talk) 17:40, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

Dictatorship

It looks like RegentsPark runs this page like a dictator. For he/she is the only one who decides what is copyrighted or not? In another case, he/she also decides from a desk that Balwant Singh is Sikh or Indian. It should be noted that Sikhs are distinct nation since 1699. Though it is ironical that UNO or Govt of India has denied them the just right of being distinct nationals. See you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vickle1777 (talk • contribs) 07:52, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

Vickie177, when someone copies material from a website where a clear copyright notice is placed, it is a copyright violation. If you believe that the removed text is freely available, or that the text was not copied from the source, you are welcome to state your reasons here on the talk page or, if you don't like the response, take the matter to WP:AN. No one is a dictator on Wikipedia and I, personally, have no opinion or personal stake on Mr. Rajoana. I'll grant you the nationality point, though the template documentation suggests not using nationality in the way you prefer. Perhaps you would like to add a separate religion field with Sikhism in it? --regentspark (comment) 14:56, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

Regentspark, You are right in the definition of copyrights violation. However, there are many pages on wikipedia e.g. "Bhagat Singh", the freedom fighter, where the quote and unquote has been provided on the page itself more than once from different people. Therefore, in a similar way, the quotation's were put on this page from Balwant Singh's letter which were termed as copyright violation. I hope you give a concession to someone on humanitarian grounds where a man "Balwant Singh" single handed is fighting against such a huge and mighty State like India. And neutrality doesn't necessarily mean the Government's version of events.

There is no malice or any effort to declare anyone dictator. It was just a sweet pinch which was provided to bring you into reason.

However, as far matters of nationality is concerned. The UNO and The Indian State doesn't recognize the distinct nationality of Sikhs. However, Sikhs do believe they are a distinct nation. I hope we both understand that religion and nation are two different concepts but tightly knit together. Therefore, to describe the nation as a religion is really demeaning. Morever for your information, the Government and constitution of India doesn't recognize Sikhism as a distinct religion. And both, the parliament of India and Supreme Court of India, have rejected the very notion of re-considering this folly in the constitution. The Sikhs to this day have not accepted the constitution of India. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vickle1777 (talk • contribs) 04:40, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

Sikhs have accepted constitution of India and a Sikh is the current Prime minister of India, see Manmohan Singh . The fundamentalist views of separatism that you are expressing are typically mouthed by Khalistani extremists. It's wrong to say all Sikh hold such abhorrent views. --Neelkamala (talk) 10:28, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
