Copy editing Tamil article
I saw your "Burning of Jaffna library" & I am impressed. Could please do some editing in Tamil. Your knowledge will be definitely beneficial to the article. Thanks. Praveen 15:03, 27 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Burning of Jaffna library is my cup of cake but Tamil language is not. I try not to be a drive by editor of subjects that I don’t know much about. About Tamil language, I knew about loan words and dialects an such and I created those sub articles and they are linked to the main article. If you can tell me exactly in what place you need my assistance, I may be able to help because in my opinion the article is already too big and is in need of being peeled of into sections. Thanks for the inviteTaprobanus 13:16, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks
Hey man... That was real nice thought. But people take advantage of "commenting on content" and abuse others through commenting (very harshly) the work. I just wanted to give them their own medicine. Anyways, I will try to follow Gandhian principles (which I am in real awe of) as per your suggestion. Praveen 13:14, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk page
Hi Taprobanus. I completely agree with you. In fact, I was really too tired, frustrated, and short of time to collect evidence and present a case. I've tried to be patient with him for a long time mainly because I wanted to get the best out of the situation. But his systematic disruption has taken whatever little energy I had for Wikipedia. I'm taking, at least, a few days off from this issue and spend my time productively in Ta Wiki. If you or anyone else can help build a case on top of what Praveen has built, please go ahead and I'll join you alongside. -- Sundar \talk \contribs 13:17, 4 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Me getting involved would be inappropriate because I have had very little interaction and it has only led to the articles getting better (Look at Burning of Jaffna library, if not for the malicious tagging and loose talk on the talk page, I wouldnt have been motivated to upgrade the article that will be sent to good article) but others who complain really should do the hard work or this will lead to more disruption. Just my opinion. Taprobanus 15:07, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Its ironical that on one hand you say that my criticism spurred you to improve the article and at the same time you call it 'disruption, malicious and loose talk'. If the article has indeed greatly improved(and from the cursory look I've taken at it from time to time since putting on my talk page couple of months ago, I must say that it has) then it follows that before it 'improved' it left a great deal to be desired. And if it left a lot to be desired, I am puzzled how criticism can be seen as anything but constructive.

In any case, I commend you for being civil and composed all along unlike the admin who rather gratuitously calls my edits 'disruption' and has always assumed bad faith(i have the diffs if you want proof). Highly unbecoming of an admin, I should say.

Be that as it may, I noticed that you've made a comment about S/T influence on T/S on the talk page. If I am reading you right, you, like me, seem to recognise that S influence on T is a foregone conclusion(to reuse a phrase I'd used once in the context). Also, you seem to disagree with the admin and his gang of malicious disrupters that Tamil had any influence on Sanskrit worth mentioning. I'd be grateful if you could talk some sense into them. If you could, it would help us in getting one big chunk of the issues out of the way on that article. I am only hoping that your charm works where my dozens of citations didnt.

Talking of citations, let me point out something that I've pointed out already on that talk page. These disruptive editors might throw some citations in your face and say.. "hey look.. we have proof that T influenced S!". My request is that you take a closer look at the citations and you will see that the so called citation only talks about "Dravidian" influence on "Sanskrit" and that too only some minor influences. I have been crying myself hoarse that "Dravidian" != "Tamil" and it only seems to have fallen on deaf ears.

Their citation perhaps belongs to the Sanskrit article under ==External influences on Sanskrit== or some such, but certainly not on Tamil language. In any case, please examine them to see if a sentence like "(...S influenced T greatly). "some scholars/experts have also pointed out the great influence of T on S"... "it was a mutual exchange.. two way process..." and such other weasels are warranted. Once again, I hope your charms work where my reasoning didnt.

You also talk of grassroots editing and I dont disagree with you. And that is why I created Date of the Tolkappiyam, Gajabahu synchronism and greatly improved(still working on it) Tolkappiyam(though these disrupters have weaseled away on those articles while keeping me busy on Tamil language and I havent had time yet to fix it). Presuming you have a background in Lankan history, I'd like you to take a look at Gajabahu synchronism in particular. I also request you to take a look at all the talk pages because these guys are masters at keeping discussions fragmented by engaging their opponents on the same issues on multiple talk pages. The latest one being ANI!

Once you've processed all the information, I do not expect that you try and reason with those unreasonable people on my behalf. It would be great if you could but I would also be content if you'd just leave your findings on the table so that I can get down and try to thrash out something with more reasonable editors.

And finally, I hope that you atleast acknowledge that I didnt intrude on your working space when you were busy 'improving' the article. That should also perhaps make you reconsider your presumption of malice on my part. Thank you for everything. Sarvagnya 23:29, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Ranjan Hoole
Dear Taprobanus, U do not know the meaning of "self promotion". I am neither the Tamil poet cum columnist nor Rajan Hoole. U are warned for unreasonably removing from wikipedia. Do not act on the basis of Guessing games. Let me know who is promoting whom. I am the one who started this piece on Rajan Hoole. I 've been updating it since its inception.


 * Dear Anon,


 * Please read WP:OWN, you don't won any article in wikipedia, what you are sourcing to say that he deserves the noble prize (which I agree, he deserves) is not a WP:RS source, it is a blog that you have been promoting, so now the article is original research WP:OR and what you are doing is also called WP:SPAM.


 * Read policies about Wikipedia, it is an encylopedia project so we have rules to follow. Further if you want to add Tamil sources that too only reputable sources, add in Tamil wiki not in English wiki. Even there Thesam, a blog will be not be tolerated because it is a mere blog without any editorial control that we know of. If it is otherwise do let us know.


 * I know you have now warned me twice now over wikipedia articles. I wonder what those warnings are about? Is it about nightly visit by a white van or about some unknown person may bump me off? I dont know please let me know.


 * Now I will warn you very clearly, you are violating WP:OWN, WP:RS, WP:OR, WP:SPAM and even WP:ATTACK by coming to my talk page to warn me. I will follow the wiki process to show you what is it to follow wiki process is. What you were not aware is that I breached WP:AGF in my edit summary because although I was correct in removing your commentary from Rajan Hoole, I was wrong is assuming that you are promoting Thesam although you had given us enough evidence. I will remove the original research from the article and will follow wiki process such as problem resolution process in indicate what it is to follw rules in Wikipedia means and I will take it to WP:ANI if it needs to be. Thanks Taprobanus 23:20, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Duraiappah_Stadium.jpeg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Duraiappah_Stadium.jpeg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.  howcheng  {chat} 20:56, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Mass graves
While there seems to be more discussion for it being a mass grave, it is still somewhat of a judgement call. Feel free to revert yourself, and ask the editor to bow to consensus of the non-involved editors discussed on the talk page. All I can do, probably, is revert it myself, and that is not going to get us anywhere different than if you revert. Lexicon (talk) 16:14, 11 May 2007 (UTC)


 * You're quite welcome - I couldn't help but get involved when I stumbled randomly across the article the other day. Hopefully we can reach a peaceful consensus at WikiProject Sri Lanka Reconciliation, because this situation looks to be on the verge of getting completely out of hand. PaladinWhite 05:50, 14 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Re:The straw poll, I voted yes for inclusion at Category:Mass graves, but no for inclusion at Category:Sri Lankan Tamil history; until the remains are identified, I don't think the case is strong for including it as "Tamil history," only as Category:History of Sri Lanka.


 * I added my vote at the new straw poll section; thanks for adding it. Also, thanks for the compliments you left at my Talk page a couple days ago... I did read them and meant to get back to you, but it completely slipped my mind. I do try my best to act in a mature and coolheaded way, and I'm glad to see that I come across successfully!

Requests for mediation/Sri Lankan Civil War
Hello Taprobanus,

Firstly, my apologies for the delay in progress on this case, as explained at Requests for mediation/Sri Lankan Civil War.

I am writing to you because, as a party to this case, your input is required before mediation can begin, to do with an offer by an experienced non-Committee member to mediate. Please see the Parties' agreement to WJBscribe's offer section and provide your input, so that this case can progress. Voting will remain open for seven days, and further elaboration is provided at that link.


 * For the Mediation Committee,  Daniel Bryant  08:55, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Category:War crimes in Pakistan
A tag has been placed on Category:War crimes in Pakistan, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a blank article providing no content to the in the current revision and past revisions would have been candidates for speedy deletion. Please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template   to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page.

Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the work of others. Thank you.


 * Your edits and reverts at the article Sri Lanka Tamils (native) are considered vandalism.Not a single historian says Jaffna Kingdom existed since 11th century.Not a single Historian definitely says Tamils were presented in good numbers for over 2000 years. We all know the earliest tamil inscription belong to the 12th century and issued by none other that great Sinhalese King Parakramabahu.


 * Also, You are pushing your POV by saying all the Karave,Durave and etc are of tamil descent. This is absolutely rubbish. These groups consists more than 40% of the Sinhalese population and you must be our of your　mind even to think they all were tamils before.


 * Please show us how the Jaffna kingdom helped to maintain tamil identity. We all know is was the king Sankili who massacred 600+ tamil Christians. So is this the way they preserved tamil identity ? by killing tamils ??


 * Also please refrain from adding mythical figures to the list of tamils. Do we ad maha-brahma or Ganeshwara to the list of Indians ? Do we add Zeus to the list of Greeks? Use your common sense please. Iwazaki  会話. 討論 03:08, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

A request for mediation has been filed with the Mediation Committee that lists you as a party. The Mediation Committee requires that all parties listed in a mediation must be notified of the mediation. Please review the request at Requests for mediation/Allegations_of_mass_graves_at_Chemmani, and indicate whether you agree or refuse to mediate. If you are unfamiliar with mediation, please refer to Mediation. There are only seven days for everyone to agree, so please check as soon as possible.

Hello Again :(
I hope not to come to your talk page with troubles only. But did I do the righ thing here. Am I follwing protocols or should I be doing something elese ? Thanks Taprobanus 12:25, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, the only thing that you did wrong i suppose is that you posted it as incident at the AN/I. AFAIK, there is a content dispute going on. I believe admins would ask you to refer to the WP:DR process. Maybe some admins would ask you to back up your report by differences (evidences) as you are accusing others of vandalism. -- FayssalF  - Wiki me up®  12:33, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Thank you brother for your prompt reply, as you have protected Duraiappa stadium mass grave, it is forcing people to talk who otherwise keep reverting without discussion. I have even started a straw poll section according to WP:DR on that. In the Chemmani mass grave article we have taken it to mediation WP:RFM, let's see the parties agree or not, if not we will take to WP:RFA. On Sri Lankan Tamils (native) and the list of Tamils articles I think we need protection before the parties (the same group) will be forced to talk, otherwise it will be a back and forth reverting. Just my opinion. Thanks Taprobanus 12:42, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Little context in Category:Tamil Australians
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:Tamil Australians, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Category:Tamil Australians is very short providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Category:Tamil Australians, please affix the template  to the page, and put a note on its talk page. This bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Category:Tamil Australians itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. Thanks. --Android Mouse Bot 2 19:13, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Mistake?
Anna, why did you remove the death threats on the State terrorism page along with forced return of IDP ? I will add it in the mean time but if you deleted it for a reason then go ahead and take it off. Watchdogb 13:30, 27 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Did somebody call it ST ? for example we should add Padahuthurai bombing because somebody did term it St. Just my opinion. Thanks Taprobanus 13:33, 27 May 2007 (UTC)


 * I don't know but a member of the state giving death threat fits state terrorism no ? Forcing people to go to a unsafe place should also fit ST I think ? Watchdogb 13:40, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
 * No unless sombody else says so because we are documenting not telling the truth :( so find the correct citation in my view


 * Why must you make me work hard ! Allright I'll see what I can whip up Watchdogb 13:51, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Dont sweat it, I am not at all worried about these AFD's. They are silly because as we become better at citing and find real good material one day or the other these articles will be re wriiten even if they are deleted today. One has to be a ghost to keep these articles from ever being written. It is a loosing proposition when you ar on the defensiv all the time. Taprobanus 13:57, 27 May 2007 (UTC)


 * “Pressuring displaced persons to return home goes against UN-recognized principles and is contrary to the Sri Lankan government’s repeated promises not to force people to return,” Adams said. “The government must only return people with their free consent, and provide aid and security for all those who decide to stay until conditions improve.”  Is that close enough to a smoking gun ?Watchdogb 14:00, 27 May 2007 (UTC) - PS I know what you mean but I was going to edit this article even if it wasn't put up for AFD :)
 * Go ahead, I am going to take a break :) Taprobanus 14:03, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

A couple of lines up from where you posted it says (in bold) "Please add new incident reports to the BOTTOM of this page", in line with other discussion pages.

state terrorism article
Thanks for the barnstar, and ill take ur comments on board and try and get some citations. Also the Jaffna Lagoon Massacre, apparently it cannot be claimed to be state terrorism as it occured on a pre declared prohibition zone. Surely this should at least be a war crime? Thanks. Thusiyan 14:27, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
 * If someone says that 14:29, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the advice
Thanks a lot for the advice, i will definitely take it on board. Just sometimes, i guess, frustration kicks in when things that seem like blatantly obvious facts to me, keep getting deleted for reasons such as "unreliable sources", or pages which have pefectly reliable and neutral sources are deleted.

I do see your point though, of these events having been recorded as ST, but as you know, it is really tough for these incidents to be recorded by a reliable source. And it seems like a really slow, long and tedious process of collecting information and sources! Especially when some of the articles documenting attrocities commited by one side of the war seem to be so heavily reported here, but the attrocities commited by another side seems to have so few articles or recognition. It seems to be unbalanced and as if there is almost a bias towards one side, because there are such little information about ST and other massacres?

But thanks anyway, i'm going to try and listen to it all. You're right about it becoming an addiction, but it feels different, because at least maybe we're doing it for a good cause? Anyway I'm a student and I've got exams at the moment and really shouldn't be spending my time on this! Thanks again Thusiyan 23:30, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Good, the best revenge is success itself. Remember some want us all dead and gone. To see us succeed even abroad burns their hearts, but when ever you have time just pop in and spend you time on small articles. That is creating grass roots articles, for example about Fr Eugene Herbert. They are countless ones like that awaiting to be written. He was dissapeared in eastern Sri Lanka, for talking about atrocities in the east, he was an American to boot. Now imagine trying to delete that article once it is created ? That will be a lot of fun:). Yes, a lot of thuggish behaviour goes on in Wikipedia when RS sources are deleted to censor information. You fight it by involving a lot of neutral editors. I am yet to count a single neutral editor support vandalism in wikipedia. Dont ever give in to such people, you will have support all the way. Get your exams over with and lets do some serious research. Good luck Taprobanus 02:11, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Disappointed
In the article State terrorism in Sri Lanka, you edit patterns which is contrary to the talk page tag which says that it is a controversial subject so please achieve consensus before making major changes is very disappointing. I can understand a tom, dick or harry indulge in such edit patterns but an admin should set the example for others to follow wikipedia rules and expectations. For example your personal opinion that Tamilnet is a blog is totally not acceptable to other wikipedians as well as reputable sources such as BBC, CNN and a number of research papers that is totally in disagreement with your personal opinion.. For example in an AFD this is what another wikipedian said about such comments. Comment: Yes. While recognizing that the Sri Lankan-Tamil civil war is a longstanding and viciously contested dispute, I decline to take notice of pissing matches between the various factions as to which source is supposedly discredited by its alleged adherence to one side or another. Fox TV is commonly presumed to be a biased mouthpiece for right-wing ideologues, but I don't think you'd get very far claiming it doesn't qualify as a reliable source on that count. RGTraynor 17:02, 24 May 2007 (UTC) Just think about the above comment. Infact I am ready to follow wiki process of taking this difference of opinion step by step all the way to arbitration to stop this vicious cycle of edits and counter edits with snide remarks. What ever the wiki community thinks will be final. Thanks Taprobanus 13:13, 29 May 2007 (UTC)


 * I am strongly of the belief that Tamilnet, a random tripod website etc, do not count as RS. Google videos etc are not RS. I didn't remove anything from proper third party reputable sources. And Green Left Weekly is not an international activist group, it is a fringe Australian leftist newspaper. And it says allegations....then it shouldn't be categorised as fact. And things can't be presented as fact when they are claimed by a partisan organisation. I am confident that my edits are in line with WP:RS.

Images
and and possibly few others(I havent yet looked) have been released on GFDL. The uploaders(for one of the pics being you) have admitted that it was taken from another source(to whom the copyrights belong, I presume). While I agree that these pics may be 'fair use' on the articles(about these people), I fail to see how they can be released on GFDL. Can you please update the licensing for these images with clarifications and if necessary, change their license. Otherwise, I may have to remove those(and possibly other pics) from articles.

Fair use
Hello Taprobanus, I believe that you these pictures fail the WP:FUC in that "Non-free content contributes significantly to an article. It increases the reader's understanding of the topic in a way that words alone cannot; without it, the reader's ability to understand the topic is significantly impaired". In the case of this picture, it shows the coffins of people killed in violence. I dispute that this picture tells us anything that we could not visualise about the event, since we can imagine what a coffin looks like. Thanks,

Non-free use disputed for Image:Padahuthaurai victims funeral.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Padahuthaurai victims funeral.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 07:17, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
