Page Curation newsletter
Hey Kondi. I'm dropping you a note because you used to (or still do!) patrol new pages. This is just to let you know that we've deployed and developed Page Curation, which augments and supersedes Special:NewPages - there are a lot of interesting new features :). There's some help documentation here if you want to familiarise yourself with the system and start using it. If you find any bugs or have requests for new features, let us know here. Thanks!

This was in news for a day and thus I created an article. As I haven't seen the film, I was wondering if you had or not? It is because I wanted someone to write the plot for the film or if it is available, can you give me a link to it? We don't need to provide a ref for the plot anyways. Cheers!

Thank you for taking the time to work on 2012 Delhi gang rape case. :) Legoktm (talk) 19:05, 20 December 2012 (UTC) |
Hey. Thanks for the cookies =) muchas gracias. I was wondering if you were able to open the piratepad page for the Delhi Rape case. I can't access it any longer. So if you could mail me the details which I typed out, I'll finish it and you can put the entire thing up by tomorrow night.
Thanks again for the welcome.

Modi
I have reverted your tag removal at Narendra Modi. Perhaps you were unaware of the section regarding the POV tag that already existed on the talk page and that includes a mention of a dispute that has gone to WP:BLPN and seems likely to end up being at WP:RFC. - Sitush (talk) 12:36, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
Notification
The Arbitration Committee has permitted administrators to impose discretionary sanctions (information on which is at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions) on any editor who is active on pages broadly related to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Discretionary sanctions can be used against an editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, satisfy any standard of behavior, or follow any normal editorial process. If you continue to misconduct yourself on pages relating to this topic, you may be placed under sanctions, which can include blocks, a revert limitation, or an article ban. The Committee's full decision can be read at the "Final decision" section of the decision page. Please familiarise yourself with the information page at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions, with the appropriate sections of Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Procedures, and with the case decision page before making any further edits to the pages in question. This is a non administrator notification, and will be logged as such on the case decision, pursuant to the conditions of the Arbitration Committee's discretionary sanctions system.
Sorry man. Darkness Shines (talk) 17:51, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
- I frankly don't know why you got this notification but others recently have received it after the discussion that happened at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#What_I_would_really_like. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 17:56, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
It is things like this which make me believe that wikipedia is a waste of time. Something I have already know of course. But it is not something that happened overnight, it has always been like this, compare with this article on Google Groups alt.wikipedia groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/alt.politics.india/j9kEYaZ7DrQ --Cuffasofas (talk) 18:13, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi. I've opened a GAR on the Ahmedabad article for which you are a main contributor. I have concerns that it does not quite meet current GA criteria regarding sourcing and MoS. Following the guidelines at Wikipedia:Good article reassessment, I'm letting you know in case you're interested in helping to resolve the concerns, though you are under no obligation to do anything. See Talk:Ahmedabad/GA2 for more details. SilkTork ✔Tea time 14:36, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
- You might have noticed that I haven't been editing much lately and I don't plan on doing so in near future. Ahmedabad for GA! --Kondi (talk) 14:36, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
