The article Giani Ditt Singh has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Rewrite
editI have taken the opportunity to rewrite the Giani Ditt Singh article to conform more closely to the style and content guidelines of Wikipedia. In doing so, I have removed some content that may have been a copyright violation (excerpts from Singh's book Sadhu Daya Nand Naal Mera Sambad and reprints of Bhai Vir Singh's poem), and I have restructured the rest. Please review the results to make sure that I have not introduced any mistakes or false information. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 16:12, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
