Could you help me in deciding whether Labh Singh deserves a B-class or a C-class status. Thanks, KensplanetTC 17:59, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re:WP:India template

I had already made the changes you were requesting. In the future, we should add a note on the talk page mentioning that we are working on something (to avoid duplication). Instead of creating new parameters, I made the articles show up on both past cotw and past cotm categories. Please check and let me know if it needs any changes.

Yes, I agree that the unsourced sentences should be removed. I managed to procure a couple of references, and I'll add them in the next couple of hours. I've added refs for most of the unreferenced sections. Anything further that we can't find a reference for, we'll delete. The article should be ready by this evening since the reviewer's deadline ends tonight. The section on taxis is a major problem. Regards, SBC-YPR (talk) 11:50, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I am a Bangladeshi & I know when Mr. Sattar became the President, his official biography as published in the newspapers clearly cited that he was born in Birbhum of West Bengal, India. NOW, if you do not want to credit the district article with the credintials of an ex president just because he is Bangladeshi, thats alltogether a different perspective on which I have nothing to say. But as far as my memory goes back, he was given reception in Kolkata by inhabitants of Birbhum while he was Vice President of Bangladesh.

Ok! Now I got your point.Thanks...but I presume you are aware about the authenticity of Banglapedia, The official encyclopedia published in association with Bangladesh Government.

Help

Hello Sir, per your text on Labh Singh, I had added information between "Labh Singh's leaving police force" and "joining Khalistan Commando Force". Added Ramesh Chander episode which showed "subject’s increasing loyalty towards Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale" and "his eventual move towards Khalistan Commando Force". I had also added several world level references, further improving Labh Singh's wp:notability. This article has suddenly come across some massive edits by Sinneed. I believe that Sinneed's un-intentional massive edits/deletion of important text/modification (especially) of the lead section can harm this article's future chances at GA review/any other promotions. You had especially noted that almost every single sentence of article was properly referenced. Please pay your kind attention towards Labh Singh and please help the article. --98.207.210.210 (talk) 07:40, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

So are you saying that unless there are more than 5 nominations pending, you cannot pass a current nominee?

--Vinay84 (talk) 02:56, 26 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

So, what can we do to make this work? You tried with the five collaborations, but that didn't work. Our India featured articles are slowly getting delisted. We need new ideas! My first suggestion is that we focus on articles that have either been recently delisted as FA (
Kannada literature in the Kingdom of Mysore, for e.g.) again because there will be specific suggestions on what to do; or GA nominees, though I'm not sure how good the GA process is. What do you guys think? --RegentsPark (sticks and stones) 16:46, 29 September 2009 (UTC)[reply
]
To answer Vinay84's question, you have added one article in the nominations page (you seem to have forgot to sign there), stating that the article is on GAR and on hold now. Actually the article was on
WP:GAN and it has passed that on August 24, 2009. So, what is your suggestion? Personally, I don't think that it will be easy at all to bring it up to FA. Now, you can consult with the main contributors of the article about the collaboration suggestion. The topic is not vast enough to call for general collaboration; most people haven't heard about it before and there is a low chance that other people (other main main contributors) will be able to help much in improving the article. --GDibyendu (talk) 14:22, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply

Hi again GDibyendu. Its been a really long time.

The article 2003 Afro-Asian Games article (you remember it, don't you?) has been rated as C-class under WikiProject India for quite a long time around. I have worked really hard on this article, and I now feel that it is ready to be rated B-class. What do you think? If you feel as I do, please go ahead and promote the article status.

WikiProject India Newsletter Volume V, Issue no. 1 - (June 2010)

Project News

WP:IND Newsletter is back! It's been nearly a year since the last edition, but we hope to bring out issues on a more regular basis now. The India Wikiproject was set up to increasing coverage of India-related topics on Wikipedia, and over the past few months the focus has been on improving

featured lists
saw a 33% increase from 12 to 16.

Due to the recent policy changes regarding unreferenced

BSNL connection, the vandal changed dates of birth, death and ages of a number of Malayalam and Tamil film actors. Later he added a few international biographies to his list. He also marked some living people like Arvind Swamy
as dead. A month long range block was imposed on his IP range two times and each time he came back to vandalise dates once the block expired. Currently the range has been blocked for three months till September 11, 2010.

What's New?
Current proposals and discussions
  • A discussion is underway
    here
    to reach a consensus regarding the use of Indian number names (lakh, crore etc.) in Wikipedia articles. Please participate and add your comments.
  • A discussion is in progress
    here
    in order to determine whether non-Western (including Indian) forms of classical music should be referred to by the nomenclature of art music instead of classical music. Please participate and add your comments.
  • Watchlist the Articles for Deletions page for India related discussions. Opinions from more Indian Wikipedians are required in many of the discussions.

If you've just joined, add your name to the Members section of WikiProject India. You'll get a mention in the next issue of the Newsletter and get it delivered as desired. Also, please include your own promotions and awards in future issues. Don't be shy!

Lastly, this is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue (Issue 2 – (July 2010)). Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned, or just start editing!

Looking forward toward more contributions from you!

WikiProject India Newsletter Volume V, Issue no. 2 - November 2010

English WikiProject News

After a missed issue, the WP:IND newsletter is back on track to being a regular bimonthly feature. The Indian WikiProject has seen plenty of online and off-line action, both in English as well as other Indian languages, and we now have a bigger, better format that intends to feature content and news from the English as well as other Indian language Wikipedias.

Reaching out to Indians has been the theme of the Indian Wikiproject over the past couple of months, aiming to involve a greater number of Indians in editing both the English and Indian language Wikipedias. To this end, efforts to set up the Indian chapter of Wikimedia have moved into their final stages, and registration of the society is currently pending. An effort is underway to push for "WikiMarathons" at meetups, where attendees will be encouraged to edit the English and/or Indian language Wikipedias. This is intended to popularise Wikipedia editing among the general public. In addition, a bot to post DYK's from the Indian Wikiproject to Twitter was created and launched by User:Logicwiki.


What's New?

Regrettably, the number of Featured Articles has dropped from 63 in June to 58 at the end of October 2010. Several FAs came up for review and were delisted, while

Chalukya Dynasty
appeared on the main page on July 9, 2010. Hearteningly, the number of Good Articles increased from 130 to 136 during the same period, while the number of Featured Lists remained constant at 16.

The

article alerts for the Indian Wikiproject
will again be available, enabling editors to easily keep track of developments in respect of reviews, nominations, deletions etc.

The date change vandal mentioned briefly in the previous issue made a reappearance when the range block on his IP range expired in September. Consequently the block was extended till September 2011.

In October there was a heated discussion in the India project noticeboard regarding the copyright status of the Indian party symbols. The discussion was triggered by the deletion of Wiki San Roze's party symbol images by Hammersoft as copyright violations. No resolution was reached, partly because of our inability to explain to Hammersoft how election symbols in India differ from party logos. Comments are requested from anyone with a background in Indian copyright law to clarify this issue.

Possible mistake in District map of West Bengal

px200

hi, I think that there may be a possibility of error in demarcating the boundary between South and North 24 parganas in the map alongside. North 24 parganas does not have any area in sunderbans but the map divides the sunderban delta into two dist. pls refer to south 24 parganas map and North 24 parganas map from calcutta web. The wiki district map of india at [1] may correctly depict the boundaries of South and North 24 parganas where the entire sunderban is given to south 24 parganas.

Wikimedia Stories Project

Hello,

My name is Victor Grigas, and I'm a storyteller at the Wikimedia foundation. We're telling stories of Wikipedia users, editors, donors, programmers and staff to paint a picture of who uses Wikipedia - for the 2011 fundraiser.

I am in the process of planning a trip to India to gather stories from Indian Wikipedians in face-to-face interviews (possibly on video).

My primary goal is to conduct 15-20 interviews, and hopefully enough of my interviews will make compelling stories that will effectively solicit donations from the public. These stories may also be used for other communication purposes by the foundation.

I found your userpage on a list of prolific Wikipedians and thought I’d reach out to you. Prolific editing is always a good story to tell!

If you are interested in participating, please contact me via my email:

[email protected]

Thank you for your time!

Of these 13,980 articles are completely unassessed (both for class and importance) and another 42,415 articles are unassessed for importance only. Accordingly, a Tag & Assess 2012 drive-cum-contest has begun from March 01, 2012 to last till May 31, 2012.

Looks better. BTW, though IMDB is not considered RS, the role names are usually taken from there by Wikipedia editors. Anyway, I am searching for an FL where the dagger is used similarly. Usually, such things should appear below a table, rather than before it. Also, the keys section is not really a subsection for the article, rather it deals with only the table. So, it might be better to keep it as a subsection of the table section. Anyway, need a precedence in FL's to suggest what should be better.--GDibyendu (talk) 12:37, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of political parties in India, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page National People's Party (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Demographics stats

Thank you for your message. This IP hopper has been adding hundreds of stats boxes to articles for many months, not one with any kind of citation. There is no evidence to show any of the stats are accurate. If one is adding quotes, one is required to support the quote. If one is adding or changing stats, the same goes.

AfDs

Please don't list AfDs to unrelated logs such as you did here when they have already been added to the log which corresponds to day the AfD was created, in case the 27 see here. If a consensus has not been reached after seven days the AfD will be relisted but it doesn't need to be listed on daily basis. Regards ★☆ DUCKISJAMMMY☆★ 21:15, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

Thanks for checking the Bhamakhyapa film for the Gurudas Banerjee page -- I've now made an indication in the article itself that Gurudas Banerjee played Sadhak Bamakhyapa in the film. Best regards -- Presearch (talk) 09:40, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks also for checking out the Vidyasagar film. I added that info to the page, since it seemed "readily extractable". I also made a note that the Mahakavi Girish Chandra film was an award-winner (which would qualify it as a "notable" film worthy of its own page, I believe). I also inserted text about the phenomenon of "multilingual" films which were not even discussed at Cinema of India until I inserted a section. It seems possible (though perhaps not likely) that the 1962 Hindi Vidyasagar could be a "multilingual" (separately filmed) rather than a dub - would you agree? Or did they stop making multilinguals at some point in time before 1950? Since the Encyclopaedia that I cited did not mention that multilinguals stopped entirely after the 1930s, I assumed that we could not rule out the two Vidyasagars being multilinguals. Do you know anything about this issue? Best regards -- Presearch (talk) 04:29, 13 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

TAFI

Hello,
In the past few days,

Today's Articles for Improvement
has gone through many changes.

  • We have modified the process for adding
    Nominations
    , which now uses a template/table format and requires only 3 supports for an article to be selected.
  • There is now a
    Holding Area
    , where articles are kept for discussion before being selected for a particular date.
  • The
    TAFI schedule
    now involves adding 10 articles weekly, chosen from a variety of topics.
  • We now have an
    Accomplishments
    page where we will be highlighting our older TAFI articles which have now become quality articles on the Wikipedia.

The Project is almost ready to hit the

Main Page, where it will be occupying a section just below "Did you Know" section. Three article from the weekly batch of 7 will be displayed randomly at the main page, the format of which can be seen at the Main Page sandbox. There is also an ongoing discussion at the Main page talk
over the final details before we can go forward with the Main Page.

If you have any ideas to discuss with everyone else, please visit the

Holding Area
.

Above all, please do not forget to improve our current

Today's Articles for Improvement


Thank you and hoping to have some productive work from you at the Project,

Help archiving the Wikiproject page.

For some reason, I can never edit the Wikipedia:WikiProject_India/Assessment, always get the 'server crashed' error. Recently I tried again and while archiving the old requests, only half of the job could be done. I ended up just putting the old ones in the archives but NOT removing them from the main page. Here is what you need to paste on the main assessment list by just copying the source. Sorry for the trouble. -Ugog Nizdast (talk) 18:22, 17 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
