[edit] {{Tamil-stub}} and {{Dravidian-stub}}

Hi - I see you have recently created one or more new stub types. As it states at Wikipedia:Stub, at the top of most stub categories, and in many other places on Wikipedia, it is recommended that new stub types are proposed prior to creation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, in order to check whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it is otherwise correctly formatted, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, and whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies. Your new stub type is currently listed at WP:WSS/D - please feel free to make any comments there as to any rationale for this stub type. And please, in future, consider proposing new stub types first! Grutness...wha? 01:26, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Interesting edit summary comments by Bakasuprman

Here are some interesting comments made by Bakasuprman in his previous edit summaries: [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. This individual has something against folks who do not belong to the same faith as this user which was also the case with the recent 3RR this person committed. Further, the admin who let him of the hook makes me feel that he also favors editors of the same interests. Wiki Raja (talk)

Oh yeah, BTW, the admin Nishkid64 who blocked me stated that I did not engage in dialog on the page I was reverting. However, I did here. But wait a minute, something odd has occurred. That edit does not show in the history section [here. Something fishy is going on. Wiki Raja (talk) 04:46, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Nothing fishy is going on. I see the issues you see regarding Bakasuprman, but the edits you mentioned are old. The most recent comes from October 2007, and the least recent date back to July and August 2006. There's nothing I can, or should, do about that now. Your edits do show up in the history of Talk:Bharatanatyam; they are, in fact, among the top-most edits in the history. -- tariqabjotu 05:18, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
You are partially right that I have edits on that page. However, the following edits which show on the talk page do not show in the history. Please look at the dates in bold face below really close.

Wiki Raja (talk) 05:43, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Um... they do appear in the history. The edit dated 03:10, January 24 (UTC) appears here and the edit dated 06:18, January 24 (UTC) appears here. -- tariqabjotu 06:25, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
Er... Kindly explain the phenomena of having two different dates here. I'll be a little more descriptive. Look carefully above my edit and you will see Revision as of 20:11, 23 January 2008 (edit) (undo) in blue bold face. Next, look inside the green box below and you will see the date 03:10, 24 January 2008 (UTC) right after my username. Please explain that to me since I am getting a headache trying to figure out the marvels of magic here. Wiki Raja (talk) 06:30, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
I'm going to guess that you live in the Mountain Time Zone. I see Revision as of 22:11, 23 January 2008 because I live in the Eastern Time Zone. The timestamp you see at the end of comments is in UTC (hence the (UTC)). When daylight-saving time is not in effect, the Mountain Time Zone is seven hours behind UTC (UTC-7) and, likewise, the Eastern Time Zone is five hours behind UTC (UTC-5). -- tariqabjotu 06:41, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
Alright, I see now. Thanks for the explanation and sorry for the inconvenience. Regards. Wiki Raja (talk) 08:51, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Admin coaching request status

You have expressed interest in undergoing the Admin coaching program. However, after reviewing your edit history, I feel you may need more time since your most recent block(s) on Wikipedia before you can know for certain your ready to begin the process of becoming an administrator. Therefore, at this time, your application for Admin Coaching has been declined.

My suggestion would be to seek adoption from a more experienced user who can help you experience all of the various components of editing an encyclopedia. If you decide adoption is not for you, there is also the editor review process that may help you find areas to improve upon in our editing. If you would like to talk more about this, please feel free to leave me a my talk page. MBisanz talk 21:19, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] user Srirangam99 - hello Sir, need your help with regard to making changes on the Chola page

Sir,

I am new to Wikipedia and was saddened to see vandalization of some history pages related to Tamil Nadu like the Chola page with this great empire being relegated to the level of a Dynasty and miniscule empires which largely remained confined to their own state like Hoysalas etc. being called empires. Also equally misleading and vicious is the act of adding a section called Chalukya Cholas to refer to Chola kings whose only fault it seems was that they hailed from the maternal line of the Cholas. You will agree that in none of their available and verifiable records and inscriptions did the kings from Kulothunga I to Rajendra III ever address themselves as Chalukya Cholas, Chola Chalukyas etc. They even gave themselves only Tamilian names like Rajaja, Rajendra, Kulothunga etc. It seems like the title Chalukya Chola was given by vicious elements to show that the main Chola emperical line came to a close and that this empire depended on survival which it did through take over of the empire by Chalukya kings. In all fairness, even if in ignorance was this act to be done, then also the name that should have been given to these kings should have been the Eastern Chalukya Chola kings and not Chalukya Cholas.

Sir, could you pls. help me with the changing of title of Chalukya Cholas to the Later Cholas (this is something I have done in the Chola dynasty page by changing the heading in the para appearing after the Medieval Cholas). I was the name Chalukya Cholas changed to Later Cholas in the index attachment which gives the chronology on the Chola page.

Also I need your help in changing the title of the page Chola Dynasty to Chola Emperors. (I also saw with regret the irresponsible and insensitive reply given to you by user KNM in justifying the title Chola dynasty instead of Chola empire given to this line of Kings from Tamil Nadu). For your information, I am also pointing out to a lot of controversial insertions, innuendos and attribution of superlatives to the Chalukya and Hoysala kings by user Dinesh Kannambadi.

Could you kindly reply on my talk page, Sir?

Thank you very much.

[edit] Sri Lankan Entries and Bias

Dear Wikiraja

I congratulate you for tagging some entries which have been taken over by overzealous editors who turn the real facts into race based campaigns.

Sri Lankan entries have a Sinhala Buddhist bias, intent on hijacking the sites for their own imperialistic agenda. All the rational people should step in and let the truth prevail.

As this will be an ongoing problem we may have to resort to a committee which should attend to evaluate all Sri Lankan entries for bias and prejudice.
