Orphaned non-free image File:BJP logo 2006 04 25.PNG

 

Thanks for uploading File:BJP logo 2006 04 25.PNG. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images 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 "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk 05:00, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

BRAHMAN

Reg: BRAHMAN , Can your good self re-create a precise page on 'Naresh Sonee' & his book 'Brahman Pujan' - 'Brahmaand Pujan' . However, Sonee is the writer of this book ‘Brahmand Pujan’ written in 1999 http://brhmaandpujan-news-reviews.tripod.com/ http://brhmaandpujanbook.tripod.com/ Since 5-6 yrs, for one or the other reason pages under ‘such names’ are constantly faced by community bias here in wikipedia. Hoewver, Naresh Sonee reflects on google search engine. So, I request Indian community to kindly come forward and generously help these two pages to grow, as I am fed up to fight my case here and moved out long back. Meanwhile, such an important info/issue on ‘Indian literature’ which adds or spell ‘new meaning /dimension’ of Brahman -shouldn it stay lost else ignored? i will not be on wikipedia so i apologise but- pls. help the page grow.

Question

Hello. I was about to replace dashes with en dashes at this list: List of non-Forbes billionaires. Might there be a fast way I could do this? Thanks! Jesanj (talk) 01:07, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Well, I went in and did it manually, it didn't take too long, but regarding Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser, is there any info on what tasks it is most helpful with? Thanks again. Jesanj (talk) 01:21, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Invitation to Gastropod group

I received your invitation, thanks GaneshK! I am not particularly on the topic of Gastropods. It happened that I was just playing around and ended editing a few articles. I hope that you and others more interested in the topic find my small contribution of some use. Of course, perhaps in the future I will add some more contributions. Have a good time!

Synonym redirect pages

Hello my friend. Long time.

I am wondering if there is a bot that can be made to create synonym redirect pages. Could a bot search an article from a list, find the synonym in the synonym section, and make a redirect page to the article title? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 06:10, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

  Done

Step two: Please look at this if you have time. We need a doodad to automatically make these redirect pages, pending a thumbs-up from the people on the project. Can you describe, determine or devise a doodad that will dispatch this dandy deed? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 10:10, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

  Done

Thanks anyhoo. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 13:44, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

I am a bonehead

Of course I know CSVloader can make articles. Those redirects would have been 10 minutes work. I'm getting dumber by the day. I should never have allowed User:Obsidian_Soul to spend all that time. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 21:24, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Koothanallur

Hi! How are you? And how is life going? :-)

By the way, I just want a favour from you. An article on the town Koothanallur has been deleted and create-protected by an admin. A few Wikipedians have, instead, created an article for the same town under the title Kouthanallur. But then, I found that "Koothanallur" is the official spelling of the place, and not "Kouthanallur". See here. Can you please remove the protection on Koothanallur so that I can move the stuff in Kouthanallur to Koothanallur and convert it into a redirect page.-The EnforcerOffice of the secret service 03:12, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

Hi! All my articles are being put up for deletion by one user, Inks, though the reasons cited are usually false alarms. For instance, please see the deletions entry page for my Raj Rao's page. It would be great if you could look into this. Thanks. Manorathan (talk) 11:41, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

DAB populates places in India

Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (India):

I suggest that places in India use the state or district for disambiguation and not "India". India is such a large country, 2nd most populous, that it will be much more clear to use a lower level. Otherwise, it would be like using "Europe" for places in Europe.

A list of places that would need renaming is at Talk:List_of_cities_and_towns_in_India#Analysis_of_disambiguation_tags.

If these are renamed, all articles left as "X, India" should be set index articles, as in Category:Set indices on populated places in India. This is good for automatic checking with bots. Bots could even create these set index pages.


Maybe you can reply at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (India). Bogdan Nagachop (talk) 14:49, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
