| Hi BV, | |||
| Could you explain why Sreedharan's analysis of Thapar's historical works is something work mentioning in this article? Is Sreedharan a scholar of sorts? In its current state, Sreedharan's analysis is the first mention of suspected Marxist overtones in Thapar's writing. As an outside observer, I fail to see what's special regarding the Marxist classification of Thapar. Could you also explain what the basis of Sreedharan's analysis was? This is what I mean by "no context". It's just a statement with no analysis or explanation provided in the surrounding text. <span style="background:#E0FFFF;color:#007FFF;font-family:Georgia;">] </span><sub>(])</sub> 05:20, 29 June 2008 (UTC) | |||

| I will request you to see the talk page of Romila Thapar to read the discussion i had with "page owners" ],] and others. | |||
| I explained my edit clearly on 24th June 2008 specifying that the reference cited was from a book previously cited in the article. ] responded by saying that "It's a problem to call Thapar a Marxist when she has said that she isn't, and that she believes the label is abusive". I explained that the edit does not call thapar a marxist anywhere, it is merely reporting that in the book, her historical works are mentioned under the "marxist phase" of Indian history writing. Now ] gets worried, he suddenly feels that Sreedharan is a '''transit engineer''' who cannot be a '''mainstream scholar'''.It does not matter to ] that this scholar's work was used previously in the article to support thapar's work on ancient india. As soon as I pointed out sreedharan's academic credentials (using online sources) to ], ] came in and deleted the entire edit. I then asked for admin intervention. ] wanted me to go to ] instead of making further edits. (please see shades of ] here). | |||

Speedy deletion nomination of Heather Ellis
A tag has been placed on Heather Ellis requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.
