I did not expect to find an article on nirutka on Wikipedia, but it is nice to see. I added a few references, mostly simple facts drawn from the standard Sanskrit dictionaries. I took the liberty of adding a section on the use of nirutka in rhetoric, and gave one such example. Sometimes showing the use of something helps make it clear. If anyone agrees that such examples are of benefit I can provide one or two more, perhaps from the Lalita Sahasranama which is a fertile ground for them. At the time nirutka was in vogue video games had not yet been invented, so people found other ways to amuse themselves. If all of this is just idle, please revert as needed.
