Keechak-Wad

This play needs to be mentioned from an NPOV viewpoint. I've removed the edit as it isn't clear what the Times actually wrote, and it left out "Kichak-vadha is an extremely well-knit play and Khadilkar has succeedcd in maintaining the suspense of the play right up to the end, even if the end is loudly declared by the title of the play. All the characters in the play, the mighty Kichaka, the powerless Virata, the patient Dharmaraj, the impatient Bhima, and above all the resolute Draupadi, determined to keep her honour unblemished, arc sharply drawn with the sure touch of a confident dramatist, and the conflicting motives of all these characters keep the tension of the incessant action ever mounting. Even the fictitious characters of Ratnaprabha, the helpless wife of Kichaka and her maids Saudamini, Manjubhushini and Chanchala out to tempt him, are all portrayed very vividly. As a result, Kichak-vadha is, perhaps, the most effective of Khadilkar's plays. But there is an aspect common to all Khadilkar plays, which must be noted in this context. All Khadilkar plays are in tune with the times."[1]. As it stood, the edit was just an attack. Dougweller (talk) 09:46, 12 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Curzon

The article appears to attribute the phrase "rulers are rulers and slaves are slaves" to Curzon. Curzon was ceertainly notorious for his arrogance but I can't find this comment attributed to him. Do we know where this comes from? It's attributed to Curzon in source used [2], but this is not a reliable source on Curzon. Paul B (talk) 15:28, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

We shouldn't use anything from that 'publisher', see Wikipedia:Mirrors and forks/Ghi#Global Vision Publishing House (publisher). Dougweller (talk) 15:36, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I should have added I also can't find a source for the quote, nor can I find any reliable sources using the book. Dougweller (talk) 15:40, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
