I have noticed you (okay, better say, "we") are facing some troubles finding sources in this article, so I though of sharing the way I quickly collect and prepare references!
For Google Books
I start searching from this page (preview and full view only, I have this page in bookmark).
After getting search results, I try to ignore some publication books like Gyan Publication (mirror of Wikipedia).
When I think one one or more citation page is reliable and alright to add as reference, I do not prepare the citation manually. I use this external tool http://reftag.appspot.com/ (this one too added in bookmark) to quickly prepare the citation and then copy paste in article.
Websites
I always start by searching Government documents. Hope you know it, still, add inurl:gov in your search query to get Government documents. For example search query "Kabir Guru Nanak inurl:gov" gives these results
Sarabseth,
About your comment that people often change Kabir's birth year to 1398– I can add at least 15 reliable refs there to support 1440 (but I too dislike reference flooding). I added only 1 Government documents actually I noticed there are many more good references to source. Please have a look at all the search results. What do you think– US Government document etc will be more helpful here? (be careful before adding Orissa Government refs, they sometimes copy from Wikipedia)
