Nalakuvara

Nalakuvara was listed as one of the articles that needed some editing & expanding on the Hinduism Related topics noticed boar. The current wikipedia article on Nalakuvara has very little information and does not cite any sources. I would like expand the article and looking for some feedback / guidance from folks knowledgeable on Nalakuvara.

- Could you please write what you know about Nalakuvara (backing up with verifiable sources would be very helpful) in response to this post ?

- Secondly, I came across information on http://www.krishna.com/glossary-n that mentions Nalakuvara (and Manigriva) as 'the sons of the treasurer of the demigods, Kuvera, who were cursed for their decadence by the great devotee-sage, Narada, and who, by his blessing, were delivered from their materialism by Lord Krishna.' This information is different from what has been mentioned in the current Wikipedia article on Nalakuvara. The current article describes Nalakuvara as 'the name of a Deity in sanskrit. Based on the ancient Hindu text, he is the son of the vaisravana, the Northern Maharajika. He lives in the realm of Catu-Maharajika.' Does anyone have a verifiable source for this information ?

Thanks
