Hi!
Good to see you! I'm doing some final summer cleaning—great for boosting my edit count. Glad that some India FA people are still around ... My warm regards. Saravask 19:15, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I tell you, that guy doesn't get half the credit he deserves. The India page was in a very bad way before he rebuilt it—I've been checking it occasionally.
 * Alas, there have been far too many talentless, time-wasting boobs who've fettered his work over the years, people who couldn't be bothered to write grammatical, engaging, FA-class copy. I wonder how much more higher-quality stuff we'd have (and how much less useless talk-page tripe) if they bothered to become as editorially capable as him.
 * Screed over. See you around. Saravask 23:31, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Save Kolkata from becoming a Former FA
Hi Dwaipayan,

This is to bring to your notice that the Kolkata article is currently in shambles; far from being a FA. A recent post in the discussion came to my notice that it might be put into FAR. Kindly collaborate to improve the article and bring it to its former glory. Amartyabag  TALK2ME  15:17, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

File:Kolkatanandan.jpg needs authorship information
Dear uploader:

The media file you uploaded as File:Kolkatanandan.jpg appears to be missing information as to its authorship (and or source), or if you did provide such information, it is confusing for others trying to make use of the image.

It would be appreciated if you would consider updating the file description page, to make the authorship of the media clearer.

Although some images may not need author information in obvious cases, (such where an applicable source is provided), authorship information aids users of the image, and helps ensure that appropriate credit is given (a requirement of some licenses).


 * If you created this media yourself, please consider explicitly including your user name, for which: will produce an appropriate expansion, or use the own template.


 * If this is an old image, for which the authorship is unknown or impossible to determine, please indicate this on the file description page.

If you have any questions please see Help:File page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:56, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

Re:Talkback
Actually I am currently staying in Bhubaneswar for my higher studies, so it is not possible to attend the Wikimeets in Kolkata. Regarding data related to Slums, economy, poverty, etc., we can use the available data currently, though it may be dated in some way. The current census (2011) has only released provisional data, the whole data will take more time to be available in public. Till then, we can fill it with the available data.

Disambiguation link notification
Hi. When you recently edited Kolkata, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Gobindapur (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 10:27, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

Re:West Bengal
Hello. I would love to join you in editing the West Bengal article (I am a Bengali, actually). Though mind you, I'm a film editor so I won't be able to help out with Geography-related WP policies. I'll do the best I can (and there'a a lot to be done). Haven't you tried the participants list in WikiProject India? I'm sure some of them would be interested in the article as well.

A small personal suggestion: your talk page could do with archiving. Its really huge. Thanks for the notification.

Re:BOI
Ah, its a very long story involving a hell of a lot of problems, but yes, for Hindi Indian BO figures, BOI is the most reliable and also the most quoted among other reliable sources. There are a select number of editors who worked to downgrade BOI's reliability when the figures from BOI did not match up to their expectations; I suggest you to not heed such editors. Yes, its figures are not freely available and I think some administrators are working on that issue (trying to, at least), but from what I've heard BOI is unwilling to release its content under Wikipedia's licence. That's the reason why the List of highest-grossing Bollywood films has only extracts; the shortened table is not because of unreliability. Hopefully this clears the issue.

Hey friend
It's great to see you more active these days. How've you been? The last article I worked on is Dimple Kapadia, what do you think? I started a peer review on it, hoping to take it a few levels ahead. Shahid •  Talk 2 me  21:46, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm fine, thank you. Great work, I hope everything settles. I am active but not as much as Blofeld. I'm kept a bit busy these days in real life but still trying to do something substantial with the little time I have. So Dimple Kapadia is the product of that, I guess. At first I just visited the article and planned to make a few changes to improve it a bit, and I don't know why, but I kept going on and on (though with short breaks here and there). Looking for sources was not an easy task, but I like the overall result because you generally cannot get that much for an actress most of whose films came several decades ago.
