Saith Baba reference[edit]

I took the liberty to remove the section titled Saith Baba. This simply refers to another master which Creme has 'referred' to and is clearly not specific to the subject.

Any discussion on this?

Extensive whitewashing[edit]

Looking over the revision history of this article, it's apparent that numerous single purpose accounts with a conflict of interest have scrubbed this article, removing reliably sourced material critical of Creme that wasn't in violation of any BLP guidelines. I'll have to go over it more thoroughly with a 'fine-toothed comb' when I can, to see what's worth restoring, but it appears this sort of redaction has been a fairly constant problem on this article for several years now, unfortunately.

I agree, and the whole thing is starting to look like a POV apologetic. If it cannot be permanently resolved, the article should be deleted. JohndanR (talk) 03:56, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Just revert to a much earlier version. As far as I know article about a notable subject in Wikipedia does not get deleted if good versions in the article history are available. Andries (talk) 14:40, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
