Close paraphrasing
Sandeep Das
edit
- ... that Indian tabla virtuoso Sandeep Das (pictured) was nominated twice for Grammy Awards, three time the All-India drumming champion and the youngest drummer ever to be graded by All-India radio?

Length and history verified. Source cited in article for the last part of the hook says nothing about the middle part (the three-time drumming championship).
Fixed: Added reference to the main article for the part on three time drumming champion.Prachi.chitnis

Large parts of the Career section are nearly identical to this source, cited in that section. Nikkimaria (talk) 00:47, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
- Fixed: Identical language has been removed and Career section has been rephrased.Prachi.chitnis —Preceding undated comment added 10:18, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
- No, it hasn't. Compare for example "His talent for music and communication has allowed him to bridge the divide between Indian and Western classical music. in 1991, in his debut outside India, Das performed with steel drum bands in Trinidad" with "Das’s talent for music and communication has allowed him to bridge the divide between Indian and Western classical music. In 1991, on his first trip outside India, Das performed with steel drum bands in Trinidad" - still nearly identical. Nikkimaria (talk) 21:23, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
- Fixed: Rephrased the career section again. Please check.
- Not fixed. You moved those two sentences around but left them with wording quite close to the source, and that was an example only. Suggest finding a third party to work on rephrasing, but at this point the article should not appear on the Main Page. Nikkimaria (talk) 13:13, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
