Thanks for reverting the vandalism on my user page. (Got you scared with my header, huh?) I guess I should expect more of that when I use Huggle. Cheers, Kodster (heLLo) (Me did that) 14:59, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A question

[edit]

Hi NAHID! Thanks for your help!! I wanted to ask you if the English Wikipedia has a project where the articles are reviewed and the users give their advice how the article can be improved. Can I put my article there and ask the opinion about my competence in English? Slav9ln (talk) 16:12, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your answer!! The Russian Wikipedia has a special project where the articles can be placed before a nomination to good and featured articles and users advise if the article can be nominated there. Does the English Wikipedia has the similar project? Mostly I want to know the opinion about my competence in English and secondly about the plot of the article. Slav9ln (talk) 16:45, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!! You've helped me very much!! Slav9ln (talk) 14:14, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

А request

[edit]

Hi, NAHID. I've tried to put my article Sergei Bodrov, Jr. to Wikipedia:Peer review and I had a problem: when I did it I closed all other articles which were there and only my article remained at this page (so I undid all my edits). Can you put Sergei Bodrov, Jr. there with such a words: "I'm not going to nominate this article to good or featured articles. I simply want to know your opinion about the language in this article: is it good or poor and does it need improvement. Excuse me if it's not a right place for such a question. If it's so – can you tell me where can I turn with it. Thanks --Slav9ln" I'l see how it was done and next time I'l be able to do it myself. --Slav9ln (talk) 07:29, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No idea, you should ask the person to add such vague remark to the header. Was it really me? I guess the guy meant Jagiellonian University, but I'm not sure. //Halibutt 15:10, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Nahid, and thanks for your mail. You expressed concern about excessive tagging on an article about a specific institution. I won't be able to help there, but I suggest you ask User:Ragib, who is an administrator and seems to have worked on the same article. If he is not available, ask at Wikipedia:Editor assistance/Requests. Make your complaint as specific as possible. I don't notice you using that article's Talk page very much; the people at WP:EAR may ask you if you have discussed the issue with the editors involved before consulting them. EdJohnston (talk) 02:04, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It would be good if NAHID would express his concerns openly on the article Talk pages, and it would be good if another editor involved would reduce the borderline incivility in the edit summaries. (Words like 'blind' and 'idiot-proof.') While these edit summaries are not blockable, at least by me, they do raise tensions and they annoy anyone who has to review the situation. At Bambusa balcooa there are sharp exchanges between two editors in the edit summaries but nothing at all on the Talk page. *Use the Talk pages*, and use WP:Third opinion if needed. If you think something is not a reliable source, ask for comments on it at the Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard. EdJohnston (talk) 16:31, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

This is a request for editorial assistance (dispute resoltion). I hav been engaged in a long term conversation with the editor of the article entitled " Astronomical year numbering". He interprets a quote from Jaques Cassini to mean that Cassini equates the year 0 AD with the first year BC. My latest edit of the article (in Ta;lk:Astronomical year numbering-April 6,2010) presents my view that both the first year BC and the first year AD are year 0. This results from the fact that the zero in the sequence -1,0,+1 refers to the instantaneous point in time between the two years and not to a 365-6-day year. Thus the first year -1 runs from year 0- to year -1 and year 0 runs from 0+ to year +1. Now all the consequences listed by Cassini are faithfully fulfilled.Sammy 22:15, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

WikiProject India Newsletter Volume V, Issue no. 1 – (June 2010)

[edit]
Project News

WP:IND Newsletter is back! It's been nearly a year since the last edition, but we hope to bring out issues on a more regular basis now. The India Wikiproject was set up to increasing coverage of India-related topics on Wikipedia, and over the past few months the focus has been on improving article quality. A number of the project's featured articles underwent featured article reviews over the past year. Of these, Darjeeling and Flag of India survived the review process, while the rest were demoted. During the same period, Gangtok, Harbhajan Singh, Darjeeling and Mysore were featured on the main page respectively on August 20, September 17, November 6 and December 29, 2009. Meanwhile, articles on topics as diverse as Political history of Mysore and Coorg (1565–1760), Marwari horse and Iravan were promoted as featured articles, and respectively appeared on the main page on March 25, May 17 and May 28, 2010. Consequently, the number of FA-class articles under the project's scope dropped from 67 in August 2009 to 63 in June 2010. The number of good articles, however, saw a more than 40% increase, from 91 to 130 during the same period, while the number of featured lists saw a 33% increase from 12 to 16.

Due to the recent policy changes regarding unreferenced Biographies of Living People (BLPs), an effort was started in January 2010 to source all unreferenced BLPs coming under Wikiproject India. 1200 such articles were identified initially and more were added to the list later. Due to the sourcing effort, the number of Indian unreferenced BLPs is down to 565 currently. During February-April 2010, There was a large scale disruption of Kerala related articles by a Thrissur based IP vandal. Editing from a dynamic IP BSNL connection, the vandal changed dates of birth, death and ages of a number of Malayalam and Tamil film actors. Later he added a few international biographies to his list. He also marked some living people like Arvind Swamy as dead. A month long range block was imposed on his IP range two times and each time he came back to vandalise dates once the block expired. Currently the range has been blocked for three months till September 11, 2010.

What's New?

WikiProject India Newsletter Volume V, Issue no. 2 – November 2010

[edit]
English WikiProject News

After a missed issue, the WP:IND newsletter is back on track to being a regular bimonthly feature. The Indian WikiProject has seen plenty of online and off-line action, both in English as well as other Indian languages, and we now have a bigger, better format that intends to feature content and news from the English as well as other Indian language Wikipedias.

Reaching out to Indians has been the theme of the Indian Wikiproject over the past couple of months, aiming to involve a greater number of Indians in editing both the English and Indian language Wikipedias. To this end, efforts to set up the Indian chapter of Wikimedia have moved into their final stages, and registration of the society is currently pending. An effort is underway to push for "WikiMarathons" at meetups, where attendees will be encouraged to edit the English and/or Indian language Wikipedias. This is intended to popularise Wikipedia editing among the general public. In addition, a bot to post DYK's from the Indian Wikiproject to Twitter was created and launched by User:Logicwiki.

What's New?

Regrettably, the number of Featured Articles has dropped from 63 in June to 58 at the end of October 2010. Several FAs came up for review and were delisted, while Fundamental Rights, Directive Principles and Fundamental Duties of India was saved. Meanwhile, Chalukya Dynasty appeared on the main page on July 9, 2010. Hearteningly, the number of Good Articles increased from 130 to 136 during the same period, while the number of Featured Lists remained constant at 16.

The source code for the Article Alert Bot is now available and the bot itself is expected to be up and running very shortly. This means that article alerts for the Indian Wikiproject will again be available, enabling editors to easily keep track of developments in respect of reviews, nominations, deletions etc.

The date change vandal mentioned briefly in the previous issue made a reappearance when the range block on his IP range expired in September. Consequently the block was extended till September 2011.

In October there was a heated discussion in the India project noticeboard regarding the copyright status of the Indian party symbols. The discussion was triggered by the deletion of Wiki San Roze's party symbol images by Hammersoft as copyright violations. No resolution was reached, partly because of our inability to explain to Hammersoft how election symbols in India differ from party logos. Comments are requested from anyone with a background in Indian copyright law to clarify this issue.

Question on articles marked for deletion

[edit]

Hello NAHID:

A user had marked an article that I have made extensive edits to for deletion, but I can't figure out how to use wikipedia to provide feedback with a *Keep indication, plus my comments. I've seen other users do this with other articles marked for deletion. If you could let me know the proper means to correctly add my feedback to this proposal, I'd appreciate it. I haven't been able to figure it out yet. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sliv812 (talkcontribs) 05:42, 29 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject India Tag & Assess 2012 Contest

[edit]

Hello friends, we are a number of editors from WikiProject India have got together to assess the many thousands of articles under the stewardship of the project, and we'd love to have you, a fellow member, join us. These articles require assessment, that is, the addition of a WikiProject template to the talk page of an article, assessing it for quality and importance and adding a few extra parameters to it.

As of March 11, 2012, 07:00 UTC, WikiProject India has 95,998 articles under its stewardship. Of these 13,980 articles are completely unassessed (both for class and importance) and another 42,415 articles are unassessed for importance only. Accordingly, a Tag & Assess 2012 drive-cum-contest has begun from March 01, 2012 to last till May 31, 2012.

If you are new to assessment, you can learn the minimum about how to evaluate from Part One of the Assessment Guide. Part Two of the Guide will help you learn to employ the full functionality of the talk page template, should you choose to do so.

You can sign up on the Tag & Assess page. There are a number of awards to be given in recognition of your efforts. Come & join us to take part in this exciting new venture. You'll learn more about India in this way.

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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:03, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Talkback

Hello, NAHID. You have new messages at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Bangladesh.
Message added 02:00, 29 November 2013 (UTC). You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Somehow National symbols of Bangladesh are deleted, including the national emblem etc. see: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:National_emblem_of_Bangladesh.svg I think these files need to be restored. As far as I remember, these SVG files were user contributed, not scrapped from government resources. Also, if I remember, copyvio is exempted in such cases » nafSadh did say 02:00, 29 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

[edit]

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 11:19, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Supporting Indian Wikipedia Program resource distribution

[edit]

In 2017–2018, the Wikimedia Foundation and Google working in close coordination with the Centre for Internet and Society (CIS), Wikimedia India chapter (WMIN) and user groups will pilot a program encouraging Wikipedia communities to create locally relevant and high-quality content in Indian languages. This program (Code name: Project Tiger) will:

(a) Support active and experienced Wikipedia editors through the donation of laptops and stipends for internet access and
(b) Sponsor a language-based contest that aims to address existing Wikipedia content gaps.

The objective of the program is to provide laptops and internet stipends for existing editors who need support to contribute more actively. 50 basic model Acer Chromebooks and Internet stipends for 100 contributors are available for distribution. Provided resources are the sole property of the beneficiaries and should be used for the betterment of the movement.

If you're an active Wikimedian, and interested to receive support from this project, please apply. It will take around 10 minutes of your time, and will ask descriptive questions about your contribution to Indic Wikimedia projects.
