Templates

You're welcome =). As for the welcome message, I type it out every time I put it on someone's page. Just kidding—actually, what I have is a template. Take a look at

Notice board for India-related topics – that's where a bunch of people keep track of the work that's being done on India related topics. See you around! --Spangineer (háblame)

Oh, and thanks alot for your vote of support for my nomination for adminship! I appreciate it. --Spangineer (háblame) June 30, 2005 15:39 (UTC)
I never log out unless I'm using a computer that I don't have control over (i.e. friend's house, library, etc.). It just makes life easier, since I use wikipedia so much =). And yeah, if you turn off your computer, wikipedia will still remember you when you turn it on again and get back online. --Spangineer (háblame) June 30, 2005 15:55 (UTC)

Hi! Thought you might be interested in some India links:

Blink reversion

Welcome to Wikipedia.

I reverted your work on

Blink (book)
because it seemed a lot like the writing style they use on book jackets, and because it's far better to have a stub that gets to the point than a longer article that doesn't. For instance: "Why are some people instinctive decision makers? How do we get to know a man's personality just by looking at his face? The author explains...." This takes up two sentences just to add a few small details to what was already stated in less than one sentence: "how we make snap judgments based on small amounts of information".

I recommend

The Tipping Point (book) for a fairly good example of an article about a book. Happy editing. — 131.230.133.185

Hello from WAS

Hello, Shreshth91. I'm getting back to you on that comment about the jokebook. Sure, I wouldn't mind a little help (although I might make corrections afterwards). Even though I haven't gone through it yet, I've got categories set up for it, which I'll include and explain below: 1. One- and Two-liners (short jokes) 2. Jewish Jokes (there are a lot of these, which I actually put into another wikibooks jokebook called "Jewish Jokes") 3. Ethnic jokes (these can be with Jews, but they're mostly multi-ethnic; i.e. an American, an Englishman, and a Frenchman...) 4. Put-downs (quick retorts and comebacks) 5. Shaggy dog stories (jokes with a big build-up and then a sudden let-down; i.e. dragging it out to a tiny, little climax) 6. Quotes (pretty self-explanatory) 7. Historical/ anecdotal jokes (either jokesw which I've cited as coming from historical sources or personal anecdotes) 8. Tables turned jokes (sudden switch of perspective) 9. Word play (puns, etc.) 10. Bawdy jokes (adult or inappropriate humor)

Thanks! WAS 03:20, 10 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Rain

It depends on the parameters: Mawsynram officialy has the world's heaviest average, but c'punji has the highest rainfall in a year and in a calendar month. The necessary text is present in the article. yeah, and Mawsynram does not have an official IMD weather station. =Nichalp «Talk»= 13:56, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Unfortunately, your article "Lyrics - Songs about Jane" can't be accepted for two reasons:

  • it's not an encyclopedia article,
  • and it consists of the copyrighted lyrics of other people's songs, and therefore is a violation of Wikipedia's Copyright policy

Please read the

Wikipedia:Copyright policy page to see why we need to have this rule. -- The Anome
15:41, July 24, 2005 (UTC)

I wasn't completely sure about the copyright violation, but I nominated it for VfD because it isn't an encyclopedic entry. If you follow the link on the article's page to it's VfD page, you'll see my entry there as well. Also, someone linked a wiki place for lyrics (I think it's called wikilyrics) if you're interested in that sort of thing. Cheers. --DNicholls 03:42, 25 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Constitution of India

I feel the tag is still applicable. I want the Constitution of India to be a FA. The US constitution is a FA. Why don't you take ideas from it and expand the article. Ae you interested in featuring the article? You'll have to devote a lot of your resources to make it a FA. =Nichalp «Talk»= 19:01, August 13, 2005 (UTC)

Hindi

Delhiwala asking a Bombaywalla on correct Hindi?! I had the impression that Delhi people speak shuddh Hindi. We speak a really corrupted version -- the bollywood style, not the hi-funda Shushma Swaraj style. I'm not sure what to write for the missing hi-4 tag, though I corrected a minor error in the rest.
