Joining WP:INDIA

See Wikipedia:WikiProject_India/Members. Just add your name to the list :)— Deon555^talk_desk^{sign here!} 05:28, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Welcome!

Hi, and welcome to the India WikiProject! We're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of India.

A few features that you might find helpful:

• Please participate in any of our descendant workgroups that might interest you.
• The project has a monthly newsletter; it will normally be delivered in its entirety, but several other formats are available.

There are a variety of interesting things to do within the project; you're free to participate however much—or little—you like:

• Want to know how good our articles are? The assessment department is working on rating the quality of every India article in Wikipedia.
• Can you code? The automation department uses automated and semi-automated methods to perform batch tasks that would be tedious to do manually.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask another fellow member, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! — Lost^(talk) 10:49, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Niraj, welcome to the India project!! just a couple of points:

• You put your username as Niraj instead of Nirajrm. I have corrected it for you.
• You made an edit to the archive page of the India quiz. We generally leave the archive pages alone. You can instead go ahead and participate in the actual quiz which is at WP:PINQ. Cheers and see you around — Lost^(talk) 10:49, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Signatures

Hi Niraj. The first step is to always sign with ~'s like this: ~~~~. This will be automatically converted to your signature and a timestamp. The second step is to replace your automated signature. This is found in "mypreferences" at the top of your talk page, then go to "User Profile" tab. Then edit the contents of the box that is labelled signature. My signature box has the following: [[User:BostonMA|BostonMA]] <font color = "blue">^{[[User talk:BostonMA|talk]]}</font> You need to replace "BostonMA" with your own username. Hope that is clear for you. Sincerely, --BostonMA ^talk 22:53, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I haven't looked at the rules for how your signature is displayed. It may be "legal" to use Niraj as your display name (I don't know). However, I personally think it would be less confusing if you signed with the same name as your user name. (You may want to get a second opinion on that). I note that there is noone with the username Niraj yet, so if you are quick, you could create that account and then link the two accounts together (I can show you how). Then your username would be niraj. --BostonMA ^talk 00:02, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

To add userboxes, just add something like {{boxtop|align=left|Userboxen}} {{User:Feureau/UserBox/freespeech}} {{User:Wintran/Userboxes/Wrong}} {{User:Disavian/Userboxes/RC Patrol}} {{User:Omicronpersei8/Rcmistakes}} {{User:Disavian/Userboxes/VandalProof}} {{India Quizmaster|12}} {{boxbottom}} Of course you need to choose the userboxes you want. --BostonMA ^talk 00:16, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Look around on other peoples pages and see what you like. --BostonMA ^talk 00:19, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Userboxes

You asked about userboxes elsewhere, WP:USERBOX is the place to go. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 00:20, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

FA Certainly

We could certainly have the Constitution of India as a FA. Some would would be needed in bringing it up to FA standards. What is a featured article? should have pointers to the guidelines. The article could be based on Constitution of the United States, a featured article. We would certainly give you all the support needed if you plan to get this up to FA status.

Re:Sound Wiki India

Hi Niraj,

I am not sure what you are talking about. Do you mean that the audio of Jana Gana Mana (instrumental).oga is not loud enough. If yes, can you tell me which software do you use as your reader. It reads out loud on my computer even at 25% of volume. I will be happy to design your userpage. You just provide me with contents, and I will model it along the lines of my page, if that is what you require. Regards, — Ambuj Saxena (☎) 06:15, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

I used VLC player to hear the files, and found them at satisfactory level. Unfortunately, I don't have a copy of the file anymore with me, and to confirm if it is indeed whispering in Media Player, I will have to download it again. — Ambuj Saxena (☎) 04:56, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Re:Name change

Hi Niraj, sorry for the delayed reply. You can request username change at WP:CHU. But you will only get it if the user doesnt already exist. If he exists but has not made any edits, you can still apply at WP:USURP. Let me know if I can help any more — Lost^(talk) 13:02, 24 January 2007 (UTC) Nirajrm ^{Talk ||| Sign here!}

I trust that you've already read WP:Userboxes and WP:Images. The easiest way to make a userbox is to copy the code from an existing one that you like and modify it. Xiner (talk, email) 00:16, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi!

Hi CattleGirl,
I had made the mistake!!! I am user Nirajrm and I had put the request for adoption by making faulty name Niraj. My real name is Niraj and I was not knowing what that is going to make. Now I need the adoption. Will you adopt me? I am not remembering whether I had registerd by the same Niraj or not and can't remembering the password too. I am very sorry for all the mess. Here is my user page... --Nirajrm ^talk 15:05, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Oh, sorry, I should have realised that from my watchlist. I'll just change the name on my page and move the adopting userboxes, no problems. I can definitely adopt you!

Do you have any questions at the moment? Please feel free to ask- CattleGirl ^{talk | sign!} 04:40, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Re:Name change

Hi Niraj, I asked around a bit and found out that the account for User:Niraj was created a long time back even though he has not contributed anything. In such a scenario, the right place to ask for a username change is WP:USURP though it can take a considerable time. In the meanwhile, I have deleted that userpage as it was wrongly created. Anyway, this is really a minor issue so dont bother about it too much. You can still sign as Niraj even if your username remains the same.

But the real fun is to write some nice articles in your domain of knowledge. Hope to see you writing some great articles. Let me know if any more help required — plz helpme iwant you to give me the forms plz idont have money plz

Editing help is needed..

{helpme} Hi, My user page nirajrm under the userbox>about me there is some text and I want to remove it. How to do this? Nirajrm ^talk 05:48, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you mean, you should be able to remove any text by editing the page. Do you mean the "Categories: Wikipedians adopted in Adopt-a-user | Wikipedians involv..." text? That is introduced by categories introduced by the userboxes, only by removing the userboxes could you removed that text.--Commander Keane 06:17, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Hello to you. What are you studying at the U of S? I see you have come with an interest in veterinary medicine and animal husbandry. I am manager of a store down town, and my children are attending U of S. I have added Saskatchewan Wiki articles as I have a keen interest in history which began from our work in genealogy. If you're interested in Canadian-related topics, there's a project dedicated to it, and also a noticeboard for Canadian-related things. There is not one yet for Saskatchewan, however these are the articles that I can see have been started for Sk and Saskatoon...List of Saskatchewan-related topics or Category:Saskatchewan I hope you are enjoying it here.

There is no on-wiki way to count edits. That is hosted on the toolserver, so you'll have to use an external link to get to it. Is there some particular reason that you wanted a wikilink? --Sopoforic 04:45, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Re Saskatoon

Well, where I started was by adding some articles at List of communities in Saskatchewan and the List of rural municipalities in Saskatchewan have no information on them on Wikipedia at all. Any names on these lists which are red have no articles about them at all..

I also peeked around the articles which have been written about the U of S (see also U of S ) at Wikipedia ... some of them are empty or are stubs... like for instance see this page...Veterinary Medicine - University of Saskatchewan it is sooooo short. Is this an area where you have some insight?

Also any short article needs help!! so these can be found at... Category:Saskatchewan geography stubs or Category:Saskatchewan stubs..So far there is only one Saskatchewan Project Wikipedia:WikiProject Saskatchewan Roads SriMesh T

Bay of Bengal

Also I see that you are fron Gujarāt, a state of India on the Arabia Sea...I expanded an article on the Bay of Bengal. Did you want to re-read it and see if it needs tweaking.

{{Helpme}} relative to User:Nirajrm/Signhere

I'm replying here to your {{helpme}} request lest your signature page should be unduly cluttered; I hope you'll not mind. In any event, the numbering did not follow from the first entry to the second because a return space was left between the two, such that each is interpreted as beginning a different list (one encounters a similar problem with bulleted lists; the use of a return space between two entries resets the bulleting and deindents entries following such space). I removed the space between the signatures and also excised a few <br>s that appeared to be unnecessary; you should, of course, revert me straightaway if you desire that the <br>s should remain (apologies if I've been untoward). Should you have any further questions, feel free to drop me a line at my talk page. Cheers, Joe 20:40, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

== How to add the template in the Category? ==

Hi, How can I add the template saying that the user is from Gujarat template to the userbox I have created? --Nirajrm || Talk || sign here! 00:12, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure I understand. Do you mean give your userbox a template?

To give your userbox a template it's best to make it in a user subpage. If you're going to make more userboxes, you should probably make it a subpage off a User:Nirajrm/Userboxes subpage.

Say you create the page User:Nirajrm/Userboxes/Gujarat. You then place only the userbox there. Then, if you place {{user:Nirajrm/Userboxes/Gujarat}} onto a page, it should come up with your userbox.

I hope that answered your question, if not, please tell me. Cheers- CattleGirl ^{talk | sign!} 08:09, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

Images

I hope you have fun on Wiki, Niraj!

I see your question...How can I insert the smileys in the text? To get images you can check out Wikicommons for any picture you would love to have...or Wikipedia...Emoticon#Graphic emoticons...If you actually click on a picture on this page ..or any picture in Wiki... it will take you to Wikicommons where the original picture was uploaded to Wiki. So if I wanted to add the innocent smiley... I would type [[Image:SInnocent.gif|20px]] and it would look like... when it is re-sized to 20 pixels. See this page How to edit a page for more clues! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by SriMesh (talk • contribs) 05:06, 28 January 2007 (UTC).

Fixed formatting

I see you found out how to add the smileys... They are fun aren't they  :-)

Just added a |} to finish off the preceding article that was made... If a table is started with a bracket, it must end with another bracket going the other way...

Thanks for telling me that, I'll remember that for the future- I didn't even know you could turn that option on and off, so that was good to find out.

I typed the Re: before the message on your talk page so it was more obvious I was replying. When I reply to messages, I read the message on my talk page and reply to it here, but before I save it I copy it. I then save the page and paste the message onto your page, so that you can read the whole conversation. I hope this helped you- cheers- CattleGirl ^{talk | sign!} 06:36, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I got it! Thanks a lot for the help.--Nirajrm ^{talk ||| sign plz!} 14:51, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

To delete your own created pages, simply add the {{db-owner}} tag to the pages you want and they will be added to the Speedy Deletion list where an administrator will check it out and then delete it. Extranet ^{(Talk | Contribs)} 01:17, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of User Gujarat

An article that you created, User Gujarat, has been proposed for deletion, for the following reason:

Unencylopedic content; appears to have been created in the wrong place. Duplicate of correctly named page at Template:User Gujarat; redirect undesirable

Wikipedia has standards for inclusion that all articles must meet. Certain types of article must establish the notability of their subject by asserting its importance or significance. Additionally, since Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, content inappropriate for an encyclopedia – such as content more suited to a directory or social networking website – is not acceptable. See What Wikipedia is not for the relevant policy.

You are welcome to improve the article to meet these standards and remove the deletion notice. You may also remove the notice if you disagree with the deletion; note that in this case, the article may be discussed further at Articles for deletion. Thanks – Qxz 06:13, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Deleting a page that you created

If you wish to delete a page that you created, and to which other people did not make many substantial edits, put "{{db-author}}" on the page, in order to alert an admin that you want it to be deleted. Then, an admin will find the page and delete it after a short amount of time (at most, a couple of hours). Gracenotes^T § 22:01, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

In this case, however, John Reaves (talk · contribs) saw your request and deleted it for you. If you would like to undelete the content, just ask him (or any admin). Happy editing, Gracenotes^T § 22:08, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Archives

{{helpme}}
I want to archive messages in group of 25. Want new messages on the top! --Nirajrm ^{talk ||| sign plz!} 22:18, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

For recommended reading on archiving, please start withWikipedia:How to archive a talk page. It describes different methods of archiving a talk page. I recommend using the Subpage archive method with the cut-and-paste procedure. It's a nine-step process, but it's the most common archive method and will work for archive messages in groups of 25 instead of by date. - fmmarianicolon | Talk 23:19, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject India Newsletter: Volume II, Issue 2 - March 2007

Project News Plagiarism by the Times of India: Recently it was noticed that the Times of India, the world's largest distribution daily had systematically plagiarised many of Wikipedia's biographies on members of the Indian cricket team among other cricketers on its website, sometimes with errors propagated (details). After discussion and discovery of further plagiarisms in other fields, the issue reached the admin noticeboard archived here. Jimbo's visit to India and the WikiCamp in Chennai: Jimbo recently visited India in late February and early March on wiki work. This included a trip to a WikiCamp in Chennai. The one day conference attracted 300 participants from across India and beyond dealt with issues facing wikis ([1]). It was widely covered by the press, eg The Hindu( [2]), which cited the efforts of Bhadani (edit count), Sundar (leadership on Tamil Wikipedia) and Ganeshk (Creation of Ganeshbot to create articles on Indian towns from census figures). Ganeshk himself travelled from California to attend the conference. Wikipedia Weekly 15: Wikipedia Weekly, a informal Wikipedians' program that purports to give "A weekly audio roundup of Wikipedia happenings with news, interviews and roundtable discussions" recently interviewed two prominent editors Rama's Arrow and Ragib(listen). The entire 34 minute interview was entirely about the world of Indian subcontinent wiki-happenings, and was the first episode which was not entirely dominated by discussion of wiki-politics and wiki-bureaucracy, with the host Witty lama praising the efficiency of the project and its proliferation of featured content. Rama's Arrow cited the team spirit, friendship and respect among project members in discussing its success and FA productivity, as well as discussing subcontinental wiki-conflict. Ragib talked also of his public campaign to raise awareness of the Bengali Wikipedia in his native Bangladesh, which has seen a 30-fold increase in article count over the past year. Arbitration: Three cases are either in progress or have recently ended. Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/India-Pakistan regarding the activities of various Indian and Pakistani editors on pages related to Indian subcontinent history topics, the national status of various pre-Partition figures, and edit-warring over Indic scripts and WikiProject tags was held and concluded in late February- early March. As a result of this, four Pakistani users, Siddiqui, Szhaider, Nadirali and Unre4L were all banned for one year for disruption via edit-warring and confrontationalism. Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Sathya Sai Baba 2 regarding a dispute over the article of the religious teacher closed in early March with four users indefinitely banned from the article. Currently, Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Freedom_skies is in the evidence phase. It is concerned with the editing of Freedom_skies, who edits articles on ancient Indian history, primarily civilisation articles such as Indian mathematics and related articles, as well as Buddhism articles such as Pusyamitra Sunga, as well as those pertaining to the propagation of Mahayana Buddhism to China such as Bodhidharma and Zen. What's New? Vijayanagara Empire Featured and Good Content: Eight articles: Vijayanagara Empire (nom), Delhi (nom), Pashtun people (nom), Nathu La (nom), Harbhajan Singh (nom), Hoysala architecture (nom), Harbhajan Singh (nom), Technopark, Kerala (nom) and Western Chalukya Empire (nom) were featured from our WikiProject recently, since our last edition. 'Dineshkannambadi has been a phenomenal force in the production of FAs recently, being responsible for three of these eight articles. He has totalled five FAs, all relating to Kannada history. Three portals: Portal:Hinduism (nom), Portal:West Bengal (nom) and Portal:Kerala (nom) were also featured. There were two additional GAs, Murali Kartik and Bhagat Singh.

Note from Editor's Desk Welcome to the March 2007 edition of our newsletter. Congratulations to one of our most respected writers, bureaucrats and administrators, Nichalp, who is now entrusted with the oversight permission. In addition Riana has joined the administrative ranks after a successful RfA. On a sad note, Nobleeagle, who was responsible for the creation of the Punjab WikiProject, and was largely responsible for Indian cricket team, Bhagat Singh and Lage Raho Munna Bhai becoming GAs, as well as working heavily in Indian religious and cricket work, has left the project after having his identity revealed. More generally, certain Indian users have recently been subject to real life harassment by banned users, etc. If this is affecting you in real life, please do not hesitate to contact Wikimedia board members for assistance, or ask a senior Wikipedian to solicit help on your behalf if required. Nishkid64, a prolific contributor and administrator, is currently undergoing surgery to fix a congenital heart defect. You can wish him well here. Weekly Collaboration (Shortcut:WP:INCOTW): Collaboration of the Week has fallen from its once high feats. Please drop by and help rejuvenate it. As before, we'd like to stress, this is your newsletter, and we want you to be part of it as well. Provide us with news tips. It can be anything related to the project, from discussions to calls for help, and other interesting stuff within our community. Sponsored content for recruitments within your WikiProject sub-groups are also welcome, including requests for copyediting, photographic work, peer review, etc. We'll be very happy to include them here. This edition special Translation Department: Can you read and write any languages of India? Do you know multiple languages and are looking to keep your skills at a high level or improve them? If so, the Translation Depeartment may be for you! The translation department of the India WikiProject aims to utilize high-quality non-English material related to India for the goals of the project. This includes both translating articles from and to other-language Wikipedias as well as assisting contributors with non-English sources.
