Kingdom of Mysore
Thank you for your copy edits. The article looks much better now.Dineshkannambadi 12:53, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your offer. Yes, the articles Musicians of Mysore Kingdom and Mysore Kingdom literature need your copy editing skills. As such they are important subarticles to two upcoming FA candidates. As far as the Kingdom of Mysore is concerned, I will complete the "religion" and "administration" sections in a week. Please copy edit those sections too, when they are complete.Dineshkannambadi 14:26, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

For your copy editing skills
India related articles are never easy to copy edit, for they are full of vernacular terms, despite which you are doing a great job. Thanks.Dineshkannambadi 14:02, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

related FAC
Both subarticles "Mysore Kingdom literature" and "Musicians of Mysore Kingdom" are related to the Upcoming FAC Kingdom of Mysore which you already copy edited and Mysore that User:Amarrg is working on. Kingdom of Mysore will go for Peer review next week, followed by Mysore in November.Dineshkannambadi 13:08, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Kannada meters
I agree that information on metres is more in depth detail and most readers would not be interested in or may not relate to. I have provided the info because often the type of metre itself determined the kind of literature. For example, a writing in sangatya metre is specifically meant to be "sung with a musical instrument", not read like a book. Writings in Vachana metre (also known as Vachana literature) is meant to be recited in a particular way that it has maximum impact on the audience. Similarly the Yakshagana literature would be ineffectual if the contents were not dramatized on stage and sung. These developments are purely 10th century onwards with the arrival of devotional (bhakti) movements. I have included the metre in all the other articles on literature I have written just for completeness and consistancy (Hoysala Empire literature, Western Chalukya literature etc).thanks.Dineshkannambadi 15:00, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Kingdom of Mysore
I have added a new section since your last copy edit, called "Religion". I will add one more section called "Administration" this week. Feel free to copy edit the sections anytime you are free. By oct 10th, the above article will go for PR then for FAC shortly thereafter.thanksDineshkannambadi 15:43, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

I have completed the above mentioned sections. Hope you find time to copy edit them. thanksDineshkannambadi 02:40, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the copy edit. Because the main article was getting too bulky (70K bytes) I have created a new subsection for the section you copy edited and called it Administration of the Kingdom of Mysore. The "Administration" section on the main article will be reduced to accomodate a more acceptable main article size (<65K). Just wanted you to know. thanks.Dineshkannambadi 16:07, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

I agree that some sentences in History section needs to go (w.r.t literary accomplishments of kings). I will look into that tonight. I though of creating subsections for "Social life" and "arhitecture" too. Let me look into that tonight. Ideally 65K size is ok for FA, from previous experience, especially since the article covers 1400-1947, a period of 550 years.Dineshkannambadi 14:04, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

One of the problems is the sections "Religion" and "Society" are not big enough to make subarticles out of. Those sections that do have subarticles are "Administration" (10K), "Music" (30K) and "literature" (20K) are quite large by themselves, so I went ahead with sub articles. So the best thing may be to reduce those other sections cleverly, while still conveying the meaning. The article is in PR, so whatever we do, we need to do it in the next week or so.thanksDineshkannambadi 15:16, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

I have created a subarticle for the Economy of Mysore Kingdom. I should be done trimming that section in the main article today. I will take two more sections (society, religion) over the next 2 days and do similarly. If you have time, please give these trimmed sections a final look before I move the article to FAC by Oct 18th.Dineshkannambadi 14:37, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your recent edits. I have completed chopping the "society" section having created a subarticle for it. I am replacing all the web citations in the "architecture" section with book citations and should be done today. Web citations are sometimes frowned upon by reviewers (though in this case, I see very little diff between the web and book contents for the Palaces and temples). So the architecture section has to be copy edied again.thanks.Sorry about the repetition.Dineshkannambadi 12:16, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

I agree. So also the Musicians of Mysore Kingdom. Even the title line needs to reflect that in the sub-article. Please ensure that the talk pages of the concerned articles also move.Dineshkannambadi 12:49, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Thank you. If it becomes FA, the credit goes to you too.Dineshkannambadi 14:50, 13 October 2007 (UTC) On a personal note, though I was born and grew up in Bangalore which is 130Kms from Mysore, I have visited only one Mysore Palace 12 years back and the Lalitha Mahal palace which is now a 6 star hotel when I was a kid. Makes me feel guilty. Next year, on my visit to India, I plan to visit all the palaces and later perhaps write a FA called "Architecture of Kingdom of Mysore".Dineshkannambadi 15:10, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi. The earliest records from Mysore Kingdom (epigraphal source) is from 1551 (which ofcourse does not mean they were administering independently. At the same time, it would convey the wrong meaning to say that the earliest evidence of Mysore administration is the minting of gold coins which happened in early 17th century, though it surely means the Kingdom had come of age. The independence of Mysore happened gradually during the rule of Raja Wodeyar I (1578)in second half of 16th century from which time many inscriptions are available. This is what we need to convey. I have gone ahead and made the change and will provide a citation for the same tonight.thanks.Dineshkannambadi 14:13, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

However, I do appreciate the fact that you caught this gap in the information I had provided in the "Administration" section.Dineshkannambadi 15:06, 16 October 2007 (UTC) Actually, I have reverted to your version on second thoughts. I will add a citation though.Dineshkannambadi 15:16, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for all your effort in copy editing Kingdom of Mysore. Th article is in FAC now.Dineshkannambadi 23:12, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

DEFAULTSORT bot
I believe I've seen Smackbot making edits in that area, at least where there's existing sort keys on individual categories. You could check the list of approved bots, or else ask over at bot requests. Alai 18:11, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

hi.
Hi. I have been busy planning the next FAC "Western Chalukya Architecture", an unique architectural idiom that flourised in Karnataka between the 11th and 12th centuries. With this effort in mind, I travelled to the districts of central Karnataka (Dharwad, Gadag etc.) this summer and visited a dozen of their fabulous monuments. I will finish writing this article and uploading some of the images which I am sure you will enjoy, sometime around Nov 10th. I am looking forward to your copy edit skills to help me make this article a FA.thanks.Dineshkannambadi 23:54, 23 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Mysore: I dont think you will jink it. The article covers just about everything that a summary style article can, though it is not perfect.:)Dineshkannambadi 12:30, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Anton LaVin


The article Anton LaVin has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Possible notable junior player, but hasn't played professional rugby (ie Super 14 or higher), only Shute Shield and the one off season of ARC. Only trivial mentions of him in match reports, no significant coverage in reliable sources.

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. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. The-Pope (talk) 07:09, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
