Four-star rank

I'm not complaining. Nor am I disagreeing with your edit. Quite simply, I'm ignorant, (and a little puzzled.) Could I bother you to explain to me (in simple language) why you believe that adding "

Director, Intelligence Bureau (Indian Police Service
four-star rank)" to the "Four-star rank" page is "original research"?
(One of the reasons I ask is that similar entries appear on the one, two and three-star rank pages, so presumably, they, too, are original research.)
Thanks in advance. Cheers,

Sure i would be glad to explain. See this edit, where I have corrected and added this reference, which is hosted by the Govt. of India's Department of Personnel and Training, which functions under
synthesis. The pay graded of all these directors are in fact in the same bracket as armed forces three-star officers. Hence I have removed the addition. I hope I have been able to explain my reasons. Anir1uph | talk | contrib

Thank you very much! (The fact that your explanation exactly matches my opinion is of absolutely no hindrance, either!)
But more seriously, your explanation very nicely fills the gaps in my knowledge, and also happens to address my discomfort with the other pages. In other words, I had my doubts, but didn't have the knowledge/evidence to support them, so your explanation is very useful. So, may I further bother you to look at those other pages and, if necessary, adjust them as appropriate? Many thanks, Pdfpdf (talk) 13:50, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
I am glad I could help :) I have done the needful at the other star-rank articles - I notice that the Pakistan section also mentions police ranks - I do not know if their police ranks are treated as stared ranks or not - I am going to leave that alone.

RE: Indian Navy Pics

Hi Anir1uph,

concerning your message at Commons:User_talk:El_Grafo#Indian_Navy_pics: I don't have the time to really dive into this again at the moment since I'll be more or less offline over the weekend, but concerning question 4: Yes, I'd highly recommend to forward the whole communication with them to OTRS ([email protected]). If the guys from OTRS say it's OK, File:INS Viraat front view.jpg can be undeleted. After that, the next step could be to create a custom license template for images from that website – I have no experience there myself, but I might at least be able to point you to the the people who have … Thanks for your efforts, please keep me updated. --El Grafo (talk) 08:26, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions

We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:

Views/Day
Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.
Quality
Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current
assessment class
, and predicted assessment class.

The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:

Content
Is more content needed?
Headings
Does this article have an appropriate section structure?
Images
Is the number of illustrative images about right?
Links
Does this article link to enough other Wikipedia articles?
Sources
For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 00:19, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
