Cyril Alington

Please could you delete Cyril Alington, then I can move Cyril Argentine Alington to Cyril Alington, as this fits with Wikipedia naming policy. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have created Cyril Alington page in the first place. Christina Kaye 10:18, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

will do, thanks! Christina Kaye 10:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Comparison of Windows and Mac OS X

Hello, While I respect the decisions of an administrator of Wikipedia, I have problems with your decision concerning the deletion of the article Comparison of Windows and Mac OS X. Looking at the deletion talk page, we can see that the users' vote are 6 for deletion and 4 for keep. While Wikipedia is not a democracy, and I have absolutely no problem with that, where things start to bug me is that the 'delete' guys wrote like 250 words each about why it should be deleted, then the 'keep' guys would say like 'No, we should keep it because it might become good'. I would like to understand the rationale of the decision, could you enlighten a soul in sorrow ? :) Dravick 14:08, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/400,000_Faces

Hi, In the 'delete' decision you stated that it fails WP:WEB - could you clarify which part it failed? Thanks. Thedreamdied 21:08, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Block of User:Qxz

You seem to have blocked Qxz as anon-only account-creation-blocked on their request for leaving. Wouldn't this run the risk of preventing account-creation and anon edits by mistake if Qxz is on a shared IP? --ais523 11:12, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Regarding blocks

I'm not sure how this block is inline with WP:BLOCK. Perhaps you would consider shortining the block, or unblocking just in case the user wishes to come back and make good contributions. v/rNavou ^banter / _contribs 20:28, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

I've removed the block; normal Wikipedia policy is not to block to enforce a wikibreak or departure. Ral315 » 13:39, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Bradnt IP block

Hi, he uses... changing IP addresses. They aren't always the same and come from I think a group of IPs in San Antonio. A permanent block will probably get someone else later. Up to you! - Denny 16:46, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject India Newsletter: Volume II, Issue 2 - March 2007

Project News Plagiarism by the Times of India: Recently it was noticed that the Times of India, the world's largest distribution daily had systematically plagiarised many of Wikipedia's biographies on members of the Indian cricket team among other cricketers on its website, sometimes with errors propagated (details). After discussion and discovery of further plagiarisms in other fields, the issue reached the admin noticeboard archived here. Jimbo's visit to India and the WikiCamp in Chennai: Jimbo recently visited India in late February and early March on wiki work. This included a trip to a WikiCamp in Chennai. The one day conference attracted 300 participants from across India and beyond dealt with issues facing wikis ([2]). It was widely covered by the press, eg The Hindu( [3]), which cited the efforts of Bhadani (edit count), Sundar (leadership on Tamil Wikipedia) and Ganeshk (Creation of Ganeshbot to create articles on Indian towns from census figures). Ganeshk himself travelled from California to attend the conference. Wikipedia Weekly 15: Wikipedia Weekly, a informal Wikipedians' program that purports to give "A weekly audio roundup of Wikipedia happenings with news, interviews and roundtable discussions" recently interviewed two prominent editors Rama's Arrow and Ragib(listen). The entire 34 minute interview was entirely about the world of Indian subcontinent wiki-happenings, and was the first episode which was not entirely dominated by discussion of wiki-politics and wiki-bureaucracy, with the host Witty lama praising the efficiency of the project and its proliferation of featured content. Rama's Arrow cited the team spirit, friendship and respect among project members in discussing its success and FA productivity, as well as discussing subcontinental wiki-conflict. Ragib talked also of his public campaign to raise awareness of the Bengali Wikipedia in his native Bangladesh, which has seen a 30-fold increase in article count over the past year. Arbitration: Three cases are either in progress or have recently ended. Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/India-Pakistan regarding the activities of various Indian and Pakistani editors on pages related to Indian subcontinent history topics, the national status of various pre-Partition figures, and edit-warring over Indic scripts and WikiProject tags was held and concluded in late February- early March. As a result of this, four Pakistani users, Siddiqui, Szhaider, Nadirali and Unre4L were all banned for one year for disruption via edit-warring and confrontationalism. Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Sathya Sai Baba 2 regarding a dispute over the article of the religious teacher closed in early March with four users indefinitely banned from the article. Currently, Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Freedom_skies is in the evidence phase. It is concerned with the editing of Freedom_skies, who edits articles on ancient Indian history, primarily civilisation articles such as Indian mathematics and related articles, as well as Buddhism articles such as Pusyamitra Sunga, as well as those pertaining to the propagation of Mahayana Buddhism to China such as Bodhidharma and Zen. What's New? Featured and Good Content: Eight articles: Vijayanagara Empire (nom), Delhi (nom), Pashtun people (nom), Nathu La (nom), Harbhajan Singh (nom), Hoysala architecture (nom), Harbhajan Singh (nom), Technopark, Kerala (nom) and Western Chalukya Empire (nom) were featured from our WikiProject recently, since our last edition. 'Dineshkannambadi has been a phenomenal force in the production of FAs recently, being responsible for three of these eight articles. He has totalled five FAs, all relating to Kannada history. Three portals: Portal:Hinduism (nom), Portal:West Bengal (nom) and Portal:Kerala (nom) were also featured. There were two additional GAs, Murali Kartik and Bhagat Singh. Congratulations to all contributors who helped to develop the above content to represent the best of Wikipedia! Need some help? Are you stuck at a point where admin help is needed?

Note from Editor's Desk Welcome to the March 2007 edition of our newsletter. Congratulations to one of our most respected writers, bureaucrats and administrators, Nichalp, who is now entrusted with the oversight permission. In addition Riana has joined the administrative ranks after a successful RfA. On a sad note, Nobleeagle, who was responsible for the creation of the Punjab WikiProject, and was largely responsible for Indian cricket team, Bhagat Singh and Lage Raho Munna Bhai becoming GAs, as well as working heavily in Indian religious and cricket work, has left the project after having his identity revealed. More generally, certain Indian users have recently been subject to real life harassment by banned users, etc. If this is affecting you in real life, please do not hesitate to contact Wikimedia board members for assistance, or ask a senior Wikipedian to solicit help on your behalf if required. Nishkid64, a prolific contributor and administrator, is currently undergoing surgery to fix a congenital heart defect. You can wish him well here. Weekly Collaboration (Shortcut:WP:INCOTW): Collaboration of the Week has fallen from its once high feats. Please drop by and help rejuvenate it. As before, we'd like to stress, this is your newsletter, and we want you to be part of it as well. Provide us with news tips. It can be anything related to the project, from discussions to calls for help, and other interesting stuff within our community. Sponsored content for recruitments within your WikiProject sub-groups are also welcome, including requests for copyediting, photographic work, peer review, etc. We'll be very happy to include them here. This edition special Translation Department: Can you read and write any languages of India? Do you know multiple languages and are looking to keep your skills at a high level or improve them? If so, the Translation Depeartment may be for you! The translation department of the India WikiProject aims to utilize high-quality non-English material related to India for the goals of the project. This includes both translating articles from and to other-language Wikipedias as well as assisting contributors with non-English sources. The department aims to provide services in transliteration, formulating scripts for various languages, as well as translating articles from one language to another and validating sources in other languages to that of the encyclopedia article. If you are looking for a friendly translator here is your go-to point. Currently, we are still seeking representation for Kashmiri, Nepali, Oriya, Sindhi and Tulu, as well as reinforcements in all other languages. Signed...

RfA thanks

Thank you for your Support on my recent nomination for adminship, which passed with a final tally of 89/1/1. I probably owe you a cookie or ten for your help back when I was new here, but I will no doubt come up with some way to weasel out of it. If there's anything I can help with, then you know where to find me. Cheers. - Michael Billington (talk) 12:54, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Username blocks

Hi, I see you've been issuing a load of username blocks, most of which look like good calls. I'm a bit puzzled as to what's wrong with Simontinks (talk · contribs) though... Can you help me out? --kingboyk 13:39, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Your edits to User_talk:76.190.75.31

Hi, Just FYI the subst template you added at this talk page was 'inside' an unended HTML comment. This meant your ~~~~ didn't work, same as for their subsequent block message! Anyway I fixed it and used Template:Unsigned2 to sign your edit. Mark Hurd 15:20, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

I here you blocked my friend communist China! You are a spolied rich nerd. That is very mean to block someone for their views. Please be nicer in the future. Thanks Spread the love --—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Anti Communist China (talk • contribs) 13:37, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thank you very much for the working mans barnstar, I enjoy fighting vandalism and reporting inappropriate usernames to try to prevent any future vandalism and so all username are suitable per WP:USERNAME. Again, thank you and happy editing! Tellyaddict 17:53, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

My RfA

• Thanks for the support position. However, I've decided to withdraw my acceptance because of real WP:CIVIL concerns. I will try again later when I've proven to myself and others that my anger will no longer interfere with my abilities as a Wikipedia editor. Thanks again, and I'll see you around here shortly. :) JuJube 04:31, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

What, I don't even get a "no comment"? :( I notice that you retired a week ago., so welcome back! :) El_C 14:43, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Oh? You know something I don't, Friday? El_C 15:09, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

No, it just thought it could only have been a joke. Or looking further, I suppose it could be a last "parting shot" on an account that's being abandoned anyway. A retirement announcement, a couple weeks of inactivity, and then an unexplained block on a regular... bizarre. Maybe this should be checkuser'd. Friday (talk) 15:14, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot (talk) 15:03, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Chicken Invaders 2 Xmas.JPG

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Chicken Invaders 2 Xmas.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. After Midnight ⁰⁰⁰¹ 16:50, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Arpita Mukherjee

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Arpita Mukherjee, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Gurpreet Kaur (Fame Gurukul Contestant)

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Gurpreet Kaur (Fame Gurukul Contestant), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Gurpreet Kaur (Fame Gurukul Contestant).
