Hello, I was reverting a revert to an edit I explained, the revert I removed offered no explanation but linking a talk page discussion which supported my argument, presumably to avoid being automatically flagged for offering no explanation. I will redo the change while repeating the reason for the change. Fredepd (talk) 02:09, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I realize this revert was done by you, and admin. I will let you read these messages before acting. Fredepd (talk) 02:11, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

To summarize the issue the only sources for the parts of the article alleging OBL's involvement in the 1988 Gilgit Massacare are from Indian tabloids all written by B. Raman, a former Indian intelligence official who offers no detail on OBL's involvement, only single sentences in related articles. It is also cited in some pop history books which either cite B. Raman's articles or cite nothing at all and were probably taken from this Wikipedia page. These very clearly do not constitute a reliable source. Fredepd (talk) 02:16, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
