Fyrish Monument

Latest comment: 15 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Somebody removed the link to Fyrish Monument which I added a couple of years ago. I'm not going to start a controversy by adding it back without a brief discussion. Comments please. The monument is a replica of the gates of Nagapatnam, built back home by the British general who captured the town in 1781. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Macguba (talk • contribs) 19:03, 11 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for Image:Tnlogo.png

Latest comment: 17 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Image:Tnlogo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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.

Reviewer: QatarStarsLeague (talk · contribs) 18:57, 11 December 2012 (UTC) I will review this article. It will commence in a day or two. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 18:57, 11 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Thanks a lot. Ssriram mt (talk) 22:28, 11 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Introduction

I really like the succinct and informative style of this lead. Very nice!

Infobox

This is all fine, the image checks out.

Etymology

This section looks nice.

History

Starting soon. Also, I apologize for the excessive wait. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 21:38, 2 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

No problem, thanks. Ssriram mt (talk) 00:42, 3 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Okay, starting again. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 17:19, 8 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Can Sangam period be wikilinked?

Done

"From 1799 to 1845 CE Nagapttinam was the headquarters of Tanjore district." Spelling error

Done

Everything else good.

Geography

This section looks fine.

2004 tsunami

Looks great here.

Demographics

"...belong to Scheduled Castes (SC)and 700 people constituting 0.7% of the population..." Space between (SC) and the following and.

Done

Everything else is good.

Economy

"...but lot of agricultural related trading in the town." How about you change the sentence to "but alot of agricultural commerce is conducted in the town."

Done

"Bulk of the employment in the town..." The bulk...

Done

What is CPCL?

Done

Lowercase for the term "automated teller machines".

Done

Everything else is good.

Done

Transport

Everything is fine, but if this port was utilized by the Dutch, British or French as a naval base or port, please specify in the article.

Done

Culture and tourism

This section is great, but the spelling of the section title should be changed to reflect how I spelled it above.

Done

Education and utility services

This section's content is fine, but you should separate the education and utility parts into individual sections.

I followed as in Thiruvarur where the thin section was merged. When split, it becomes very lean - so prefer to retain just for size uniformity with other sections.

Politics

Again, content is great but the section's title should just be "Politics".

Done

Conclusion

This a very fine article and I enjoyed reviewing it. Once the given issues have been fixed, I will pass this article. Congratulations! QatarStarsLeague (talk) 17:19, 8 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Thanks. I have included the 2011 provisional totals and made minor modifications in other sections. Ssriram mt (talk) 04:44, 9 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
