For your support which helped in retaining an important article, Rahul Raj encounter, on wikipedia. Keep contributing to this free encyclopedia. Manoj nav (talk) 06:58, 2 December 2008 (UTC) |
hi Gppande
Keep contributing to wikipedia.
It's really unfortunate that this happened. Even I was blocked a few month back. I had expressed my concern then -
"I am shocked that wikipedia is so prone to misunderstanding and administrator possibly have fewer tools which could help them to take authentic actions."
I wish administrators use this - Wikipedia:Assume good faith more often then the limited tools provided to them. Apart from this, administrators should never misuse their position. Also I don't think many would support for an article being deleted based on voting . It should be based on the reasons posted on Afd page by various users and not the number of users.
Wikipedia:Discuss_and_Vote: An admin takes the discussion into account as well as the numbers voting to arrive at an informed conclusion. Consequently, the stronger arguments will prevail although a decision contrary to the majority would only be rendered when there is compelling evidence of inappropriate campaigning or "vote stacking" by one side. Because the point of these processes is to form consensus, it is preferable that people include comments and discuss the matter along with voting - that is, people are encouraged to explain their reasonings, respond to others and possibly compromise or change a vote, rather than signing a one-word opinion and not looking back.

Kalimpong - Politics section
Hi, I understand that such a politics section is not needed in FA articles, just like Darjeeling or Kolkata. I didn't add it, as I did not add it in other FAs, even though I added similar info in many other non-FA article. Will you please move this text, as suggested by you in your comments "History of politics can go inside the Darjeeling (Lok Sabha constituency) article. Not needed here. removed Politcs section."? Otherwise, this text will go away and already some editors (probably PKNyogi) had spent their time in writing it and in providing refs. Thanks. --GDibyendu (talk) 14:24, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
- Well Done. It looks good.--GDibyendu (talk) 14:57, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Kalimpong FARC
Now, this is gonna be relatively tough job. Tough to find out online refs. Nichalp probably used some book(s) while developing the article for FAC.

- Is there any way you could cut down the map in the infobox. Only a small portion of it shows Kalimpong, and the smaller, included map of India does a good job of locating Kalimpong in a general sense relative to India. Also, the map has a funny bar (or something) at the bottom. Perhaps that could be cropped out. Regards, —Mattisse (Talk) 04:10, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
Re: Need help on copyedit and prose.
I did a bit of copyediting; please use what I've done as an example for the rest of the prose. Gary King (talk) 19:30, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
Hi. I've made a minor copyedit. Please check if my edits are OK. I find that the following issues need to be addressed:
- Somehow avoid the self-reference in the phrase "this article". Possible add "as per census 2001" where necessary and do away with this sentence?
- Explain what is meant by "annual average exponential growth rate". Based on my reading, if it's a percentage, they use the term "rate", else "ratio". And what do we mean by exponential here? Is the measure something like, log(delta p / p)? This is particularly needed because, in the following line, we talk of percentages.

I notice that this category you created is unpopulated (empty). In other words, no Wikipedia pages belong to it. If it remains unpopulated for four days, it may be deleted, without discussion, in accordance with Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#C1. I'm notifying you in case you wish to (re-)populate it by adding [[Category:Dalit community stubs]] to articles/subcategories that belong in it.
I blanked the category page. This will not, in itself, cause the category to be deleted. It serves to document (in the page history) that the category was empty at the time of blanking and also to alert other watchers that the category is in jeopardy. You are welcome to revert the blanking if you wish. However, doing so will not prevent deletion if the category remains empty.
If you created the category in error, or it is no longer needed, you can speed up the deletion process by tagging it with {{db-author}}.

Hi Gppande,
I am pleased to see that you have used my monobook script in the past; I hope you've found it useful.
I have to let you know on your talk page that ArbCom has announced a temporary injunction against the "mass delinking of dates". You can still delink dates on an occasional basis; however, you may wish to be cautious and use the script only for its non-date functions until the issue is resolved by an RFC poll. You may wish to express your view on autoformatting and date linking in the RFC at: Wikipedia:Date_formatting_and_linking_poll.

Seeking help against vandalism
Hi
User:Walky-talky is constantly vandalising the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh page. He introduces soapboxy content that does not exist, claiming that it exists in sources. When asked he evades reply. I tried to discuss, plead several times. But he just reverts back things.
A scrap from somebody in his talk page, which he reverted back made me suspect that he is a sock puppet of banned user [User:Kuntanan] [1] From his very first edit he seems to know all rules of wiki. His style of editing seems to confirm my belief.
Please guide me on what I could do.Thanks nihar (talk) 11:52, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi
Hi, nice to see you login again after quite sometime. These days, many of the old FA's are getting demoted mainly due to lack of references and lack of quality copyediting. We could not even save Mumbai, though there is a good chance that it can again qualify as FA. We have made an attempt to revive collaboration efforts in the form of WP:INCOTM. Though its aim is to generate FAs, my personal aim/expectation is to get GA's out of articles rated B or lower. This seems to be easier to achieve, as FA scrutiny is pretty difficult now.--GDibyendu (talk) 15:41, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
