deletion of category
Well, Good evening. In the page : Kalitas of Assam, the category"Assam" has been removed by u. actually the Kalitas as a caste or community is distinct to the province of Assam in India and hence the category "Assam" is very much important for searching this page. "Kalitas of Assam" has to be included in "Assam" category. Hence I am putting the category back again.(Undo)

Deletion of Category from page
Hi Girish, Thanx for the reply. "Kalitas of Assam" -- are the most numerous of all Assamese social groups in Assam (like the Ahoms). By the same yardstick which u have applied in removing the category "Assam" from this page, you should also remove the "Assam" category from the wikipage "Ahom" too.

removal of Alpolic Aluminum Composite Materials?
Hello,

Could you kindly explain how this article was tagged as an "advertisement"?

Here it is again for quick reference:

ALPOLIC® is a lightweight material composed of a thermoplastic core sandwiched between two skins of aluminum. This material is generally called Aluminum Composite Material and abbreviated as ACM. ACM was first produced in Japan in 1974, and was then introduced to the United States in the early 1980s. Common applications for ALPOLIC® are for architectural applications such as external and interior claddings, roof coverings, and ceilings of buildings.

I have read all the rules as to sort of content to stay away from, and I do not understand how this is nothing more than a informative piece not advertising anything?

I followed the information structure from a description from another similar material, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alucobond

If anything, the Alucobond article is more of an advertising piece in that is is more pro-product.

Could you please advise?

Thank You,

The kalpa is explained in the Bhagavad-gītā (8.17): sahasra-yuga-paryantam ahar yad brahmaṇo viduḥ. One day of Brahmā is called a kalpa. A yuga, or mahā-yuga, consists of 4,320,000 years, and one thousand such mahā-yugas constitute one kalpa. The author of Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta says that if one does not take advantage of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, he cannot be delivered for millions of such kalpas. http://vedabase.net/cc/antya/3/255/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.133.0.240 (talk) 07:18, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Inclusionism, not deletionism
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Inclusionism

Inclusionism is the philosophy that information should be liberally added and retained on Wikipedia. It is espoused by users called inclusionists who favor keeping and amending problematic articles over deleting them. Inclusionists are generally less concerned with the question of notability, and instead focus on whether or not an article is factual, with merit, or useful.

Inclusionism is opposed to deletionism which supports the deletion of unworthy articles and exclusionism which involves removal of unhelpful information (and deletion of an entire article only if such removal leaves nothing behind). In other areas, inclusionism usually aligns with eventualism because both philosophies hold that articles with mixed quality of content should be retained and will be improved in time. As the size of Wikipedia grows, incrementalists will also become more inclusionist as the standards for notability become easier to meet. Inclusionists do not necessarily lean toward either end of the mergism-separatism or exopedianism-metapedianism spectrums.

A favorite phrase of inclusionists is "Wiki is not paper." Because Wikipedia does not have the same space limitations as a paper encyclopedia, there is no need to restrict content in the same way that a Britannica must. Usually the AFD discussion takes the same or more amount of disk space than the article. It has also been suggested that no performance problems result from having many articles [1]. Inclusionists claim that authors should take a more open-minded look at content criteria. Articles on people, places, and concepts of little note may be perfectly acceptable for Wikipedia in this view. Some inclusionists do not see a problem with including pages which give a factual description of every person on Earth.

From a deletionist or exclusionist viewpoint, inclusionists appear to be arguing for the value of material and information which is substandard, or inadequately verified; however, inclusionists counter that there is little harm in keeping material that might some day be improved as information on the topics become more widely available. Inclusionists also point out that Wikipedia is not meant to be a poor copy of the Britannica, but rather a unique encyclopedia that aspires to "the sum total of human knowledge." Furthermore, inclusionists argue that the concept of "notability", an idea that many deletionists use as a basis for selecting which articles ought to remain and which deleted, usually has no objective criteria. They argue that reliance on such a concept does more harm than good to the goals of the project.

Inclusionists are perceived as having a greater acceptance of trivialities, small articles, non-traditional topics, and non-academic articles; this may cause them opposition by those who hold stricter views about the proper content of an encyclopedia. Inclusionists often see this project as a completely new and revolutionary way of storing and organizing all human knowledge. Many editors may object to articles such as a "List of tennis players who appeared on the David Letterman Show in 1995", but some inclusionists strongly support such items, arguing that they are valid additions to an encyclopedia aimed at being a repository of all human knowledge. Inclusionists may feel such critics are simply suffering from the academic standards kick. Inclusionists also point to the fact that there are no concrete standards for determining how noteworthy or notable a topic is.

Two important prerequisites for additions to Wikipedia are that the information is correct and well placed. That last aspect requires a good structuring of Wikipedia in levels of detail, with general articles linking to more detailed 'subarticles', which in turn link to still more detailed ones, so that (ideally, eventually) on the one hand people who are not interested in certain details will not be bothered by them, while on the other hand people who are interested in them will easily find them through just a few well-placed links. If the information is not thus well placed or Wikipedia is not well structured to place the info, then that should be changed instead of removing the info. If someone finds something interesting enough to write about then chances are that someone else will (one day) find it interesting enough to read about, so it should be in Wikipedia. If that person does not know where to place the info, then that should not stop them from putting it somewhere. Someone else will then (eventually) put it in the right place. Although of course what is the 'right place' also changes over time. If for example the info does not warrant a separate article yet, it can be kept in a higher level article, where it might become a 'seed' that attracts other related info, which together might later warrant a separate (sub)article. Such loose facts are often placed in trivia sections at the bottom of an article. Removing those seeds will stunt the growth of Wikipedia.

Inclusionism parallels eventualism and the legal standard of presumption of innocence. As always, the dangers of factionalism should be noted, as should the likelihood that many Wikipedians are neither exclusively inclusionist nor deletionist, but mergist or some other wiki-philosophy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.132.236.20 (talk) 06:41, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

About Ravana page
Hi Girik, I need a small help.

There are some wrong information on Ravana page, specially in Etymology section. Some people have replaced the word "Sinhala" with "Tamil" and they defaced that section. This is the reference link : http://www.hindustantimes.com/Ravana-is-a-hero-for-Sinhala-nationalists/Article1-249335.aspx. Please correct those errors according to this original article.

Pada-yatra

Why did you delete my edit? It made a valid point - actually the term Padayatra is more well known in ISKCON circles as a religious pilgrimage, than it is generally as a political march.

Every time I have made any (valid and well thought-out) contribution to Wiki, some editor has deleted it, or worse - deleted the whole page! (Which stood for years before I helpfully tried to delete a spelling or grammar mistake). My experience with Wiki editors leaves a sour taste in my mouth. This is made even more annoying in this case - when I was on Padayatra in 1994, how old were you? lol —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.13.152.52 (talk) 21:16, 24 September 2010 (UTC)

APPEAL TO YOU - RESCUE  Reg: [BRAHMAN PUJAN], [UNIVERSAL PRAYERS]. written by [Naresh Sonee] On wikipedia, These above two pages are far older than the present article [Brahman] References of above titles are also available on New York site - (Removed link) Meanwhile, Can your good selves in Wiki Project Indian Community re-create a precise pages on [Naresh Sonee] & his book [Brahmand Pujan] – [Brahmaand Pujan]. However, Sonee is the writer of  this  book  [Brahmand Pujan] written in 1999. registered with Government of India- HRRD. Details of the registration is provided here on http://brhmaandpujanbook.tripod.com/. More than sufficient, news and reviews are there on http://brhmaandpujan-news-reviews.tripod.com/ Since 5-6 yrs, for one or the other reason pages of [Naresh Sonee] & [Brahmand Pujan] are faced by communal bias from outside India  so these articles over and again get deleted here in Wikipedia for minor reasons. However, many hits of - Naresh Sonee reflects on google search engine also. So, I request Wiki Indian community to kindly come forward and generously help these two pages to grow, as I am fed up to fight my case alone here [left] and moved out long back. Meanwhile, such an important info/issue on ‘Indian literature’  which adds & spell  ‘new meaning /dimension’  to Brahman -should it stay lost else ignored? Your community panel has to judge at last. Myself, will not be on Wikipedia, for the same i apologise, but- pls. help these two pages to get reinstalled, reap, sow and grow, if you too feel so, I appeal to do this munificent favour.
