 * Hi Agawas, your edits on Shantadurga Kalangutkarin Temple seem to be experimental; there are better places to test Wikipedia's formatting than an article which people want to read. Those include:
 * your user page
 * Wikipedia's sandbox
 * As of now the edits you're making are having a negative impact on the article, and that's annoying some other editors (and the people reading the article). If you have questions, ping me here. Cheers, Airplaneman   ✈  16:58, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Gawas


The article Gawas has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Unsourced and, well, is every surname notable? Where will it end? I know that we have some Surname articles but a line has to be drawn somewhere.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Sitush (talk) 16:31, 23 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Although you have written that this is a common surname, I could not find any articles about notable people with this name in Wikipedia, nor in the Times of India. Also, you seem to have written it from from personal family history, but that's also not a good start here (see No original research). Ancestry.com and ancestry.co.uk have a few records of this name but don't confirm any of the contents of the article; I'm not aware of any similar database in India. Until there are reliable sources about this name, and evidence of notability, I don't think we can rescue the page. – Fayenatic  L ondon 18:32, 23 August 2012 (UTC)

Sharvani devasthan
This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Sharvani devasthan, and it appears to be a substantial copy of http://www.wikimapia.org/348519/Sharvani-Devastan-Advalpal.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) MadmanBot (talk) 10:00, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Sharvani devasthan


A tag has been placed on Sharvani devasthan requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. -- Patchy1 10:04, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Jyotirlinga, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Parli (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).
