Excimer Laser!!
Who exactly is the inventor of the excimer laser on the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur wiki page 1) Mani Lal Bhaumik (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mani_Lal_Bhaumik) or 2) Dr.Rangaswamy Srinivasan (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excimer_laser). I'm just a curious corrector and hope someone with more experience responds...
- Dr. Srinivasan is reported to have studied the impact and uses of Excimer laser, which I believe is different from invention. I am not sure how much is the contribution of Dr. Bhaumik. Technology advances are made in many steps, and possibly Dr. Bhaumik was involved in one of them. I do not have sufficient background to answer this, and a detailed analysis would require mode in-depth research into the history of Excimer lasers. — Ambuj Saxena (talk) 19:56, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
One featured picture
Hi! Image:Agasthiyamalai range and Tirunelveli rainshadow.jpg is a featured picture in commons. Does that mean it is of featured status in WP also? In that case, it should be listed in Wikipedia:WikiProject India/Featured and good content. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 05:35, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Re: You might be interested
Hehe, yeah I had recognized his name too :-) Would be sad if he is actually the real McCoy though. Naah, I'm sure it isn't him. This guy either coincidentally has the same name or is using the real guy's name as a pseudonym. Max - You were saying? 14:02, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
- Ah! I have seen the light. Read this. It seems the friendly folks over at IIPM have used famous names to cloak their identity earlier. Dang! Now I know why you posted the link on my page. I feel so bloody silly to have even given the benefit of the doubt to this guy! I should've known that these people are only capable of tricks like these. Oh well, I grow a little wiser every day. Cheers, Max - You were saying? 17:01, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
Nice work on the IIPM article, dude. Things seem to have stabilized over there. Let's hope it's not a transitory tranquility. Max - You were saying? 20:39, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Weather charts
Hi Ambuj,
Could you look into this problem? I know you fixed it once for another chart on IIT. Regards, =Nichalp «Talk»= 04:30, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
- Hi. Could you take a look at these Chennai and Mumbai charts? I can't figure out what those black objects are, and the titles ("Chennai" and "Mumbai") are not displaying. Thanks. Saravask 04:05, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
I see that the problems have been addressed. — Ambuj Saxena (talk) 17:13, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Hello
Just stopped to say you hello. I am sure that your real life is progressing very well. Yes - you should concentrate on one aspect of life at a time as a saying goes: [3] - yes - Ye shall keep My statutes.

Regarding TAF
Hi Ambuj,
Its regarding the Technopark article. I requested for WP:TFA/R. The requested date was April 4th (the date was available). But, it dint appear on the main page on April 4. What could be the reason ? How can I make a successful TAF ? I would like to go for April 17 or 18th (both available). Can you please help me in this ???? -- Rajith Mohan (Talk to me..) 11:30, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
The portal needs immediate and continued attention. I don't understand automated technologies much. Please try to fix (if needed) and clearly state in the help page what is needed to update/maintain the portal. Portal:Current events/India/How to archive the portal is not very explicit. Once the automated portions are done, anyone can do the updating. I was trying to do the updating today and yesterday. Did to some extent. But was not sure about archiving process, so had to quit after some time fearing I may force some errors. Please try to do it if you have time, or you can ask someone else. Let me know if you think someone specifically so that I can get in touch with that user. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 17:47, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

The article is not currently available on the net (the univ may publish it some time) but a short summary is posted on my userpage for now. Cheers
RFA
When you return from your wikibreak, please let me know if you are willing to have another go at getting the administrative tools. Assuming you can answer concerns addressed in your original RFA, I would support you and even nominate you. If you are not willing, that would be good information as well. -- nae'blis 16:02, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Thank you
Thank you for reviewing the BITS Pilani article. I had made a lot of changes from what was a very ordinary and biased article. I guess the format is still very ordinary. I will borrow ideas from other featured university articles and make some changes in the coming month or so. Please do contribute if you can as well. Appreciate it.

Andrews & Kurth, L.L.P. | Frank Andrews (Texan) | Frank Andrews (disambigutation)
My apologies for committing all 3 articles in parts over 2 hours instead of all at once. All are fixed now with references.
Frank Andrews (Texan) was an important player in US politics from 1803-1933 and I created a page for him.
His name was taken by U.S. General Frank M. Andrews, so I added (Texan) to his name, and added the disambiguation page.
Andrew's law firm also didn't have a page so I made one with a few paragraphs of their early history.
Happy Independence Day 2007

I noticed you were one of the primary contributors to the Indian Institutes of Technology article. I'm having Florida Atlantic University undergo a peer review before taking it to WP:FAC. Since you are familiar with the process I was wondering if you would mind taking a look at the article? If so, please go here to offer any advice/suggestions.
IIT Article - Changed Template
Ambuj, I have changed the IIT Template . The previous one looked cluttered with all the pics, and the color was an eyesore. Thought I should let you know considering you have lots of important edits on the IIT page.--Keynes.john.maynard 16:58, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:IIT KGP Logo.PNG)
Thanks for uploading Image:IIT KGP Logo.PNG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. 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 15:12, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

IIT KGP Motto
Hi Ambuj,
I was going through the IIT KGP Page on Wikipedia - Very informative.
Do you happen to know the meaning / translation of the motto: Yoga Karmasu Kaushālam ?
The meanings I have picked up on through google searches do not sound poetic enough - Perfection in action is Yoga and the like.
Do let me know if you come across something interesting. Many Thanks,

Fair use rationale for Image:NIFT_Logo.PNG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:NIFT_Logo.PNG. 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 Wikipedia articles 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
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 ensure 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 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. Rockfang (talk) 23:04, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
