WP Indonesia assessment edit

Lack of WP:RS - and only links to Indonesian language websites - regardless of a long list of publications makes this a stub of low importance - more content in the lead para and more context - rather than an exhaustive publications list would improve this article SatuSuro 03:40, 24 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

A good English language reference would be a paper by Jeffrey Hadler: Home, Fatherhood, Succession: Three Generations of Amrullahs in Twentieth Century Indonesia. It was published in Indonesia, a journal from Cornell University. Gombang (talk) 05:01, 9 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
FYI, you can find the article here. I wanted to incorporate the information there in Indonesian language version of this article, but didn't have time. Perhaps someone can use it here instead. Gombang (talk) 07:50, 18 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. Kampung Molek ("Molek village") is in the area of Sungai Batang ("Batang River") in the Maninjau area. Checking on various sources, it seems best to provide the birth details the way I have amended it in the article. Thanks for your suggestions and references.
