[edit] Portal:Norway

I responded to your comment at the WP:FPORTC discussion page. Thanks for taking a look at the portal, Cirt (talk) 12:38, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

FYI, I changed that title/subsection heading at Portal:Oregon, per your suggestion, as well. Cirt (talk) 15:44, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
Thanks Cirt!! Shyam (T/C) 05:25, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] HELP! Need Hindi translations

I've been working a little on the Indian Space Research Organisation page, and noticed that the name is not given in Hindi (or any other Indian language for that matter). While I understand that English is the de-facto language of Indian science, I think it important that ISRO's name be translated into Hindi in the opening sentence of that article. I do not speak a word of Hindi (though I hope to rectify that after I complete my studies in Arabic and Mandarin Chinese), but this bugs me to no end (especially considering the Devanagari abbreviation in the logo). Could you kindly translate "Indian Space Research Organisation" into Hindi, with the Hindi abbreviation and a suitable (e.g. IAST) transliteration? Thank you!

[edit] Usurpation request

Hi Mpradeep, this is Usurpation request for Shyam on tewp. I have unified login with name "Shyam". Someone else has created with accountname "Shyam" before and have no contributions. Can this username be usurped with some other name, so that I can have same name on tewp as well. This will be a great help. Regards, Shyam (T/C) 09:19, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Y Done Hi Shyam, Your request has been considered, now you can unify your login account on tewp. __Mpradeep (talk) 10:13, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Portal:Anglicanism

You wrote: "Articles should be of good quality. There are some articles, which do not qualify to be selected, like, Old St Paul's Cathedral, St Thomas the Martyr's Church, Oxford."

Both of those articles have passed GA. A good article is called a good article because by definition it has been reviewed and has been determined to be of good quality. Why on earth would you claim they dont qualify for the portal? You also never addressed my response to your first comments. -- Secisek (talk) 11:08, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image licensing

Hi, why did you added cc-by-sa-2.5 on this image? Did you contacted the author of image? If you contacted the author of image and the author agrees to license under cc-by-sa-2.5 you must add this information on image description. Cheers. Carlosguitar (Yes Executor?) 12:02, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi Carlosguitar, I was new to Wikipedia at that time. I misinterpreted the author's quote. It can go for speedy-deletion. Sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks for making me aware of the incident. Regards, Shyam (T/C) 12:30, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi. I've attempted to edit the above article down to source-able, encyclopedic information. I'd love you to find sources for some of the stuff I've pulled out, though, and you seem to be the main contributor to the article...--Shannonr (talk) 13:15, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
