Hello and thanks for your edits on Alimuddin Zumla. The article should be appearing on the front page of Wikipedia sometime next week in the "Did you know?" section. A few comments:

• I put the bibliography into a more standard format for Wikipedia and added links to the journal websites where the papers were published. However I couldn't locate the article "Zumla A (TB Essay Focus coordinator), and Mullan Z The Lancet, Vol: 367: March 18th 2006: p 938-955." Do you have a link for this?
• If you have a photo of Dr. Zumla which you took yourself (i.e. not a professional headshot) and you are willing to release it under a Creative Commons 3.0 license, you can upload it at Commons:Upload.
• As you are connected to Dr. Zumla, you should read and be careful to follow Wikipedia's policy on conflicts of interest.
• Wikipedia requires that all article content be verifiable by reference to reliable published sources such as newspapers, books, or for non-controversial details, the person's own writings or websites. Unfortunately none of the newspaper articles about him mention the family's place of origin in Gujarat. For details like this, if you have a family website, you can place the information there, and then the Wikipedia article can cite that website as the source for the information.

Kind regards, cab (call) 04:15, 17 April 2011 (UTC) The artilcle with Mullan and others is at: www.uclh.org/OurServices/Consultants/Pages/ProfAlimuddinZumla.aspx Our parents do originate from Gujarat! Being their child, I should know!! We do not have a family website but I am sure we will soon.Prof Zumla recently was awarded with the India International Foundation award (cited on his page). This is only given to people of Indian descent. All the material has been referenced. I have added more references.Hopefully this will alleviate any misconceptions about family bias.
