Madan Puraskar Pustakalaya library

edit

On 14 June 2007, IP editor 202.51.76.234 deleted the Madan Puraskar Pustakalaya library from the "Culture" section of this template. The Madan Puraskar Pustakalaya library was added to the template on 28 September 2006 by Joelr31 with the remark: "adding topics removed from main article". As I see it, this template is used as a topically organized see also reference for users on article related to Nepal. If the library is notable, which I do not know, then I see no reason why it shouldn't be in the template. If the library is not notable, then the appropriate procedure is AfD, not deletion from the template without discussion. On this restricted basis, I have restored the library to the template. Any editor challenging the notability of the Madan Puraskar Pustakalaya library is encourged to do so using the AfD procedure.   --Bejnar 14:40, 14 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Undetected vandalism

edit

I was shocked to find out that someone has made it so that this template automatically converts into Category:Colonial History of Nepal which is a completely nonsensical phrase. Suddenly, we have years old articles on a zillion different topics about Nepal all populating that ridiculous category. I suspect some registered editor might have been POV pushing, and it went unnoticed. Please fix this asap. Just look at that category page to see how ridiculous it all is.

I have removed the link, which had been added with this edit. I'm not sure I'd call it vandalism and haven't reverted the entire edit, but the link doesn't belong, and it certainly shouldn't have categorized every Nepali topic in the category. The category itself likely should be deleted, too, as well as parent category Category:Colonial History. That's an unrelated issue. Due to server cache issues it may take some time for the pages bearing the template to no longer be listed at Category:Colonial History of Nepal; on any specific page you can purge the cache to resolve the issue.
