- Imperial Family of Lanka (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
Contested prod. This article is a hoax or at the very best a fantasy. It's unreferenced, created by an SPA, completely at odds with the history of Sri Lanka in other WP articles such as Sri Lanka and Kingdom of Kandy. The article's purpose seems to be to support the claims in Nilupul Narendra Rajasingha VII, which gets a flat zero ghits for the subject and which I'm also nominating. andy (talk) 09:55, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete part of the Nilupul Narendra Rajasingha VII article looks like its taken/based on Grand Duke George Mikhailovich of Russia. As I type this the Nilupul Narendra Rajasingha VII article says George is also in the line of succession to the Imperial Throne of the Mogul Dynasty through His Maternal Great Great Grand Mother. Why are these hoaxers so sloppy? - dwc lr (talk) 10:29, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- i found that many of the facts were incorrect and tried making changes and it got reverted —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pauljohn564 (talk • contribs) 12:01, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- i feel you people should first check the references provided, the books listed before comming to any conclusions. typing mistakes could occur, and how could you simply say that this ia a based on Grand Duke George Mikhailovich of Russia, and compare the content and when Britain itself had 6 Kings named George, why only Grand Duke George Mikhailovich of Russia. all referecne are not found online, they come in books as well.--Theazerbaijanglory (talk) 12:49, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- the Family of the person mentioned in the article, is not somthing that i made, his ancestry and family tree was approved and comfirmed by the National Archive of Sri Lanka and the British Archives, i obtained a copy from the national archives of Sri Lanka and , his great grand father's name is G. H. George Edward Themis Gunawardena (1874-1934)who was married to Silvia Angammuwa (1880 - 1915)(firstly) and later to Cecilia Wijesingha. George was name used by many sri Lankans during the colonial Rule. Sir Oliver Ernest Goonetilleke was a Sri Lankan not a hoaxed by a person copying everything from Oliver Cromwell, William Gopallawa is also a Sri Lankan not a British or some other person bearing the name William.....
- Sri Lanka Many historical records a still kept in documented form. very few is available online, as for example wikipedia has information about all british kings and queens, but out of the 197 monarchs of Sri Lanka substantial information of 10 kings cannot be found. but books in sri lanka still give a vast knowledge abouth these.--Theazerbaijanglory (talk) 13:22, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- The Rajawaliya (story of kings) is one good example. the Mahawanse, Chulawanse are also examples of these.
the codes of conduct put up by king Nissanka Malla are still presevered in documentaion. i will try my best to upload to these information to other websites to help people across seas to known what a great monarchy sri lanka once had and what there desendants do in pretendence. --Theazerbaijanglory (talk) 13:22, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- it is utterly unsuitable for you people to directly label these article as haox, did you atlest have time or even bother finding out the books that i have mentioned. i find information of books more reliable than the once found online.--Theazerbaijanglory (talk) 13:04, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- The way I see it is this: "Nilupul Narendra Rajasingha" can't be found on the web and your article provides no references that show that he even exists, let alone is a king-in-waiting. So it fails the key Wikipedia policy of verifiability and therefore must be deleted. The other article was clearly written to support this one, so it too fails. andy (talk) 13:27, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- request you to check to books mentioned above.......--Theazerbaijanglory (talk) 13:38, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
