July 2011
Creating articles about  locations: Wikipedia is not  a travel  guide. Please be sure that pages you  create are about  existing towns and  cities and are correctly  referenced per our instructions at  reliable sources and WP:CITE. Failing to  do  so  may  result in  all  the pages being  deleted. Thank you. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 07:27, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Regarding Humpi Article Removal
I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. Articles are not removed for vandalism, they are removed because they are nonsense, non-notable etc. The Hampi article you point to above exists, and the only time I have edited it is to REMOVE vandalism, back in July.

Your recent edits
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or  located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment.

Starting again...
Hi, it seems there may have been some misunderstandings. WP:COPY is absolute - we need to respect copyright, but one can also write *from* a source without copying from it. Unless a source is less than about 70 years old, it is not in the public domain - government sources are "crown copyright" in Commonwealth countries, I'd imagine India would have a similar concept with a different name. I think it's great you're using reliable sources rather than random websites like some other editors have in the past, it's just a matter of using them as a source rather than simply transplanting them. If I can be of any help (I do a *lot* of work from Australian gazettes), please let me know. Orderinchaos 06:38, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
