Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to BIMARU, did not appear to be constructive and has been automatically reverted by ClueBot. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you believe there has been a mistake and would like to report a false positive, please report it here and then remove this warning from your talk page. If your edit was not vandalism, please feel free to make your edit again after reporting it. The following is the log entry regarding this warning: BIMARU was changed by Manoj nav (u) (t) blanking the page on 2008-07-30T11:33:42+00:00. Thank you. ClueBot (talk) 11:33, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * As already pointed out by ClueBot, simply blanketting pages is not acceptable. If you disagree with the contents of an article, you should first try to initiate a discussion at the corresponding talk page. --Soman (talk) 11:38, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Simply blanketting pages is not the way to deal with content disputes. If you want the article deleted, then initiate request for deletion. That said, I doubt that the BIMARU article would be deleted, as it is a term often used in academia and newsmedia. --Soman (talk) 09:50, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Bokaro Ispat Vidyalayas
A tag has been placed on Bokaro Ispat Vidyalayas requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Woland (talk) 15:41, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

Title change.
Hi, I changed the title to (Economic distress of Biharis in India) what I believe is appropriately reflecting the content of the article. I am aware that changing the title hasnt solved all the problems and I still believe the article needs a lot of rewriting and will be doing my contributions whenever I find some time. Hope it is ok. Thanks. Docku Hi 04:17, 11 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, if there are editors who are concerned with the title and explain their concerns for changing the title, you have to address those concenrs. You can not make an unilateral decision changing the title without provinding any explanation just accusing the editor of vandalism. That is not the way wikipedia works. I also notice your free use of the word vandalism. If i notice such language again, you will be reported to administrators which could get you into trouble. Docku Hi 13:50, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

You have blanked following subsection-

"Genocide of Bihari culture"

Indian government, till recently, identified all Bihari languages (Bhojpuri, Magadhi, Maithili and Angika) as dialects of Hindi. A Bihari speaking Bihari accent of Hindi in the rest of India is frequently reminded of that he is speaking incorrect Hindi inspite of belonging to the Hindi heartland of India. This stereotype has been created by the establishments in Delhi to propagate Hindi at any cost. Bihari languages (Bhojpuri, Magadhi, Maithili and Angika) are descendants of ancient Magadhi-prakrit language spoken in the ancient kingdom of Magadha and are very different from Hindi or Urdu. Even after 60 years of India's independence Bihari languages, which are spoken by almost the whole of the population of Bihar, have not been given official status. Maithili was granted official status in 2004, after an active movement, through its inclusion in the Eighth Schedule of the Indian Constitution, so that it may be used in education, government, and other official contexts.

Will any administrator make me understand if this is not vandalism. If any editor has any dispute, he or she is supposed to add citation tags and give the previous editors time to further modify it. Instead of this the subsection has been blanked.

The section headings Causes of xenophobia and prejudice against Biharis and Notable establishment sponsored incidents of hate and prejudice against the community has been changed to to Causes and Notable incidents respectively to dilute the topic and then it has been claimed to change the title to Economic distress of Biharis in India or Treatment of Bihari economic migrants in India or Anti-Bihari migrant sentiment in India. Do we need experts to confirm if these anti-bihari sentements are racism. Why is it so difficult to assimilate?

Manoj nav (talk) 06:32, 12 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Do you have any reference (not just any, reliable) for any of the information written in "Genocide of Bihari culture"? Without references, contentious materials will be removed immediately from article even if many of the editors editing the article (including you and me) think and believe it is true. verifiability is the first rule (not the only).
 * "Xenophobia", "racism" and "establishment sponsored incidents" are incredibly loaded words and without extraordinary references, they stand no chance in the article. In fact, I would caution you against adding them in the future because doing so without a strong evidence could get you into trouble.
 * Read the following policies during the small break, WP:VERI, WP:RS, WP:NPOV, WP:NOR, WP:NOT, WP:REDFLAG, WP:UNDUE and several others. Remember, if the informations which we add breach even one of these policies, it cant stay in wikipedia. Good luck. Docku Hi 14:12, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

History of mails between Yellow Monkey (administrator who blocked me) and manoj_nav (myself).

Yellow Monkey: I believe that

is not allowed; you have debated Fundamental metric tensor under your IP, and then under your registered account. You are not allowed to give the impression of being two people in this way.

Manoj_nav

2nd mail: The date (11 August 2008 ) on which http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Bihar#Someone_has_edited_the_introduction_without_discussion this discussion was made was the second day of mine as an editor on wikipedia when I had no account on wikipedia.

3rd mail : I discovered in the history page that the 1st edit make by Special:Contributions/202.144.93.138 is 3 August 2006. This is my office IP. Lots of people must be making edits using this IP. The 1st edit I have made is dated 23 July 2008 related to topic Magadha. This is a case of misunderstanding and ignorance. Kindly unblock.

NB: The time I made my 1st edit is not when I routinely starting contributing for wikipedia. 202.144.93.138 and 122.169.81.43 are the ips of the computers which I generally use.

Speedy deletion of Patna School of Painting
A tag has been placed on Patna School of Painting requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hindi template
Can you please tell me why you changed the template again? Bihari as per linguistics is not a part of the Hindi group. We don't go by social perceptions on wikipedia, and that is why we have declared Hindi and Urdu also to be the same language.  Maquahuitl talk! 05:03, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Actually those issues need to be sorted out. We need to make space for social perceptions notwithstanding that we stress on facts. Therefore, in articles we can perhaps put disclaimers that "these XYZ families are socially considered to be a part of Hindi but are not considered the same from the POV of linguistics etc.". However, in something like a template we should mention only factual details.  Maquahuitl talk! 06:35, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Raj Kumar Shukla, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://tirhut-muzaffarpur.bih.nic.in/District/Bettaih.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists.

Racism faced by Bihari community in India
You have basically undone all the changes I have done sometime before. You havent answered any of the concerns regarding Original research. You havent answered why you call it racism (again original research) when all Indians are the same race. It appears to me that you havent really understood the problems with the article. Pls understand WP is not a medium to advertise your displeasure, ideas and opinions to the world, but rather an encyclopedia. I have posted the same message in the article talk page, let us try to keep the discussion there.  Docku: “what up?”  15:46, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

caution
Apparently, you seem to be adding a lot of material to this article Racism faced by Bihari Community in India such as this. Words including "Xenophobia'" and "racism" are original research. If you choose to continue adding original research without any regard for wikipedia policies, you will be reported to Administrators notice board and could get blocked.  Docku: “what up?”  00:41, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for informing
Hello, The article needs more sources like these that explicitly state "racism", "prejudice", "xenophobia" against Biharis. Otherwise the article looks more like a personal opinion (ie. original research and synthesis). I appreciate your effort in adding references like these. Do inform me once again when you are done. Similarly, please improve the Causes section with sources that actually state "the causes of prejudice against Biharis". --KnowledgeHegemonyPart2 17:28, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Re:vandalism on Bihar article
--  Tinu  Cherian  - 04:30, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Re:Awadhi
Actually, I am not sure whether we can say that "Awadhi has been influenced by Magadhi", since Magadhi lies after a gap of another language, Bhojpuri in between. What actually is perhaps meant by the statement is that Shauraseni Prakrit of this region was influenced by Magadhi Prakrit of the East, which ultimately gave rise to Eastern Hindi languages like Awadhi, Bagheli and Chhattisgarhi. There is another statement however, saying that Awadhi has taken birth from Braj bhasha, which I guess is nonsensical. Most modern Indian languages are of the same generation, and both Braj bhasha and Awadhi are of the same generation. One cannot be from the other. Perhaps language pairs like Malayalam-Tamil and Bengali-Assamese and some others share this relationship, and even then it is not at all in their modern forms, it is difficult to say anything like this for Braj bhasha and Awadhi, as far my knowledge goes.  Maquahuitl talk! 05:30, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

A friendly advice
As a fellow wikipedian and an Indian, I just wanted to say a few words to you. I have noticed that you are interested in writing about racism against Biharis in India. As a native of the neighbouring state of UP, I would like to tell you that already there is a lack of good coverage of the Hindi belt on Wikipedia as there are few people from the Hindi belt/Punjab on wikipedia as compared to Bengalis and few Southern people. Instead of focussing our energies on articles related to negative issues, why not instead write about the languages, culture, cities, and other such important topics here, which will help these articles move shoulder to shoulder with the articles of other states. Negativity will catch the eye much faster.  Maquahuitl talk! 05:47, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I concur with that buddy. You can see quality of articles in WikiProject Bihar is very low and many of places in Bihar are still unrepresented in Wikipedia. You can compare this with smaller states like WP:KERALA. I created the WP:BIHAR including other unrepresented states with this view, so that people interested can join and help. Although I am not from the state, I would like to see more of India content properly and fairly represented in WP from every inch of our country. ( Having said that I help all other country Wikiprojects too ). Let me also know if you want any help from my side.  --  Tinu  Cherian  - 06:20, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Well that is good and appreciable. Please concentrate on the same and avoid controversial issues like racism which will only waste your energies. Whatever you've written is alright- leave it there and move forward towards the positive areas(as you are going). Especially regarding languages, the individual languages of the Hindi belt have poor representation/information on wikipedia and even on the internet in general. I have even been reading books to gain knowledge about them so that I can write about the same on wikipedia. The other important articles besides languages would be individual cities, esp. capital cities like Patna, Jaipur, Bhopal etc.  Maquahuitl talk! 09:33, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

 * I have replied here Talk:North India. --KnowledgeHegemonyPart2 17:23, 29 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi. Yes I am aware of the difficulties faced by linguists in categorising Maithali, Bhojpuri and Magadhi. Some classify them as independent. Some as dialects under the umbrella term Bihari and some regard them as a dialect of Eastern Hindi. In fact even Bihari is regarded as independent or as sub-Hindi. Shall discuss this. I have to leave now. --KnowledgeHegemonyPart2 17:56, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

 * I would probably argue that that is not enough- I do not see why the image is absolutely necessary to the article. I have no opinion on whether those protests need to be included in the article, but, even if they do, does there really need to be a picture? No, I don't think so, as what the protests looked like probably isn't that significant, and they are almost certainly not significant enough that they warrant using an image from a commercial news source. As for your other question, images can't be moved, you'll have to re-upload it. J Milburn (talk) 17:07, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I only tagged the images I came across while looking through newly uploaded images- I will take a look at the others another time. The image you have added to the article is a borderline case- I think an argument could be made either way. Are there no other photos of this available? Perhaps it would be worth contacting some copyright holders to ask if they are willing to release the images under a free license, or searching for a related free image. I personally wouldn't include the image- but if you like, I can send it to images for deletion for a wider discussion. J Milburn (talk) 19:22, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Bihari migrant attacked in Mumbai 2003.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Bihari migrant attacked in Mumbai 2003.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not.

Hindi in Bihar
I think that the article is unnecessary. Can you explain on what grounds do we need this specific article?  Maquahuitl talk! 06:25, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

Re:Discrimination faced by the Bihari community in India
Thanks for your message. I honestly don't have time right now to read the article again to see if the significant views are included. Nevertheless, you certainly know what I meant with that tag when I inserted it on the article page. Id est, cause of discrimination -> immigrant workers with low pay; cause of immigration -> failure in local politics and economics. When you are ready to point out fingers at other parties as causing historical injustice, you can't forget the real local factors. For instance, you also have anti-English riots in Bihar, UP and other Hindi states to make Hindi as official language of India. This certainly alienates the interest of other states to the Hindi belt. As I said earlier, if you feel all the causatives are listed, go ahead and remove the tag. But, if the tag be removed without attending to the reason that it was added there, firstly, it would count as vandalism and failing to assume good faith. Second, it would mean that you are trying to push a POV fork without covering significant view points even when you are explained to. Last but not the least, me or someone else will once again tag this since it would miss significant view points.

Fair use rationale for Image:Birsa Munda Statue at Naya More.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Birsa Munda Statue at Naya More.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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.

Biharis in B'Desh
We need an article on them if it is not already there. As a person who has cretaed number of articles on conflict related issues, the only wat go forward is small step at a time. Start with small articles such as a person, an incident, a policy, a riot, group of people, categories then you can put them all together into a complete subject matter. It takes anywhere from 1 to 2 years just to complete that. But always treat it like a project with number of small steps along the way. Taprobanus (talk) 14:54, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

It has been a while and thanks for the Star. I have made a case for the Rahul raj encounter entry to remain. Hopefully, that can remain o wiki.

Hi Manoj,

I have created some major articles Cinema of Bihar, List of Bhojpuri Films, Patna Film Festival and Bhojpuri Film Award and also did some major changes in Bhojpuri Film Industry to revive the information about Media in Bihar.

 I am not familar with bhojpuri language ant its film (I have not seen any bhojpuri movie[:(]). So I want your contribution in above mentioned major article. 

I have also created article for some bihari movie like Ganga Maiyya Tohe Piyari Chadhaibo (1962) •  Laagi Nahi Chhute Ram (1963)  •  Ganga (1965)  •  Bidesiya (1963)  •  Bhouji (1965)  •  Loha Singh (1966)  •  Dher Chalaki Jinkara (1971)  •  Daku Rani Ganga (1976/II)  •  Amar Suhagin (1978)  •  Balam Pardesia (1979)  •  Chanwa Ke Take Chakor (1981)  •  Saiyan Magan Pahelwani Mein (1981)  •  Saiyan Tore Karan (1981)  •  Hamar Bhauji (1983)  •  Chukti Bhar Senur (1983)  •  Dulha Ganga Paar Ke (1986)  •  Roos Gailen Saiyen Hamaar (1988)  •  Mai (1989)  •  Ganga (2006)  •  Udedh Bun (2008)  •  Bhaiyaa(maghi film) •  Kanyadan film(maithali)  • Bhauji Maay (maithali) •. But these are the minor article so we have to concentrate of major articles which is mentioned in first paragraph.

Speedy deletion of Image:Rahul Raj.jpg
A tag has been placed on Image:Rahul Raj.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on  explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. -- <em style="font-family:Kristen ITC;color:#ff0000"> Tinu  <em style="font-family:Kristen ITC;color:#ff0000">Cherian  - 12:19, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Dont feel bad that I had to tag ur Rahul raj picture for SD. We have certain copyright rules and issues in WP for pictures taken from news sources or websites. You cannot take them from there and pass it on to Wikipedia as free GNU license. If you happen to have a picture taken by u or got from somebody else who have permited to use in WP, please upload them. Btw I have re-written your article to make it as a incident than a Bio article. I have also nominated the article for DYK here on your behalf.

 * One more request dude. I think I have already talked about this to you. I know you are very much worried and angry about the racisims that Biharis faces . But please try to develop more articles on Bihar itself, than articles regarding Bihari sentiments.You know that I had created WP:BIHAR some time back. I wanted the unrepresented states of India to have enough articles in WP. You may want to see that smaller states like WP:KERALA has 3000+ articles while WP:BIHAR is with just 200+ articles. Develop good articles about places, geography, culture and arts in Bihar than concentrating on negative sentiments articles. This is just a personal suggestion. Dont hesitate to take any help or advice from my side. Enjoy your stay in Wikipedia.

 * Nice to see your message on my talk page. This is first time that we are interacting. I am glad to know the article made it to DYK and congrats to you. Thanks a lot for the barnstar. I am not going to quit WP, I was just angry the first time when I saw I was blocked for no reason. WP is too good a site to ignore. I agree that admins are just using some basic tools to determine puppets and innocent users like me and you get caught in between. Surely there should be some more sophisticated tools. I have left a message to Tinu also on his talk page. Just be cautious while working on important websites regarding from where you are doing so - avoid shared resources.
