Their stated reason for removing them was that they felt I added too many citations in too short a period. Other than there not existing a Misplaced Pages Policy even remotely connected with this reasoning, it doesn't make sense. Are citations no good when they have been added too quickly? Does the slowness in the addition of citations make the citations more credible? User:Ishu claims that s/he will evaluate each citation edit-by-edit to determine if they warrant inclusion in this article which sounds as if s/he believes s/he is the sole self-appointed ]. It has been two weeks and they have not personally evaluated my citations from peer-reviewed sociological sources. Will these citations ever be evaluated? For outside observors, . My citations were from credible Asian American sociological books I rented from the library, so they were not removing the citations based on a lack of credibiility.
