Contested deletion

@KahnJohn27: Regarding this edit , here is the quotation from the source (downloaded from the DOI). Dasharatha Sharma has brought to notice an interesting piece of evidence regarding Nagabhata I. He says that a medieval Jaina Prabandha within the Puratana Prabandha Sangraha (recension B) refers to Nahada (identified with Nagabhata I), a soldier of fortune, who was the first ruler of his family. He is further stated to have made Jalor his capital and to have come into conflict with a Muslim ruler, whom he defeated. Would you care to explain what you have checked? - Kautilya3 (talk) 21:05, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

@Kautilya3: I described it as I've seen from the source. In actual none of the above content you quoted here is visible anywhere at all on the source. That's why I deleted the content of battle against Muslim ruler. KahnJohn27 (talk) 21:09, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

It is not clear whether you are admitting mistake, or whether you are standing by your stance. If you made a mistake, then I will let you revert your own revert. If you are standing by it, then please let us know what you find on page 204 of the Sanjay Sharma article. - Kautilya3 (talk) 21:14, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

@Kautilya3: I'm not admitting any mistake. And I don't see any page 204 of Sanjay Sharma article. There only one page of the article with the title "Abstract" when I go to the source and there are no other pages. KahnJohn27 (talk) 21:19, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

In that case, you don't have the source. - Kautilya3 (talk) 21:22, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

@Kautilya3: I'm accessing it directly from the link given in this Nagabhata article itself so your claim is completely incorrect. KahnJohn27 (talk) 21:35, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

You need to get the full text, which you might need to purchase unless you (or your library) has subscription. Or you need to go find a library that has the journal. You just read the abstract! - Kautilya3 (talk) 21:36, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

@Kautilya3: Yeah I see it asking to purchase full text or subscribe or view it from a library whoch has a subscription. But how I'm going to do that? Am I going to pay money for subscription or purchasing the article (which is $30)? Your source is then non-accessible by the general public. Nobody can read and confirm its content without paying money. I don't understand why you used the source in first place. Please use another source that allows to view its content without any pay wall like Google Books. KahnJohn27 (talk) 21:42, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

You said that you are not a newbie. Surely, you know what is meant by a reliable source? Your ability or inability to access a source doesn't affect its reliability. So you should rest now. Or you are going to WP:ANI. - Kautilya3 (talk) 21:52, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

Anyway if this thing about Nagabhata fighting a Muslim ruler is true, then there must be an easily accessible source for it. Try to use that instead of something that demands $30 to read it.
