New adoptee!
Hello! I saw your name in the list of adopters here. Would you like to adopt me to help me be a better user here at Wikipedia? Jedd Raynier (talk) (contributions) 13:51, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
 * You left the same message on my tp also. I see that you have been reducing your work on wiki lately Mike. So do you mind if I adopt him? Choice is yours as he left the same message on my tp at the same time.  Yash  t  101   14:04, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
 * You're welcome to. Indeed, I will be inactive for a couple more weeks, so go for it Yash. Jedd, have a nice day, and you can always report here if your mentor starts acting mean ;) . Best,  Lynch 7  16:37, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I was childish few months back, but not anymore. Please..please..please trust me   Yash  t  101   16:40, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
 * It's okay. No matter who among the two of you will be able to adopt me. I assure, Mike, even if you can't be active here at Wikipedia for weeks, Yash is there to adopt me. Trust me also; he'll be a good mentor. Jedd Raynier (talk) (contributions) 10:18, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
 * By the way, I would like to say belated congratulations for winning in your RfA. I wasn't able to greet you since I had a lot of work to do in school.
 * Oh well, it isn't a competition or anything of that sort to win, but thanks! It was certainly great to see the trust that the community places in me! Now got to live upto that. :)  Lynch 7  18:53, 4 May 2012 (UTC)

Abuse response
Hello, I am really sorry to keep asking you, but it's been nearly a month since I made my request and there is no sign of it being closed any time soon, as all other members of the abuse response team last edited months ago. Is it compulsory to be approved before starting on some cases?  Puffin  Let's talk! 18:27, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Don't worry, you can keep pestering me :) . Actually, you don't need to be approved before you can start acting on cases, but we have an internal mailing list that you can be a part of so that we can maintain proper logs of emails sent and stuff. The list admins seem to be Netalarm, user:Jamesofur and User:DeltaQuad . DQ seems to be the only one active these days, I'll leave him a note on his talk page.  Lynch 7  18:40, 4 May 2012 (UTC)

59th National Film Awards for In the News
Hey. With the ceremony took place on May 3, I have pushed the article for "In the News". Would you mind commenting here. I am not sure whether article is eligible or not as its an Indian awards ceremony. Thanks. -  Vivvt Talk 23:49, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Hehe, I'd be the first one to oppose this ;) . This is national news, something not really suited for the Main page ITN. Besides, the Filmfare Awards are much more notable and popular than this, so I'd say this has a slim chance, if any of finding any support. Don't worry though, the article's in a good shape, that's what matters!  Lynch 7  18:43, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Well! You aren't first one to oppose for sure. All have opposed till now. :( §§AnimeshKulkarni (talk) 18:47, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm not surprised :P  Lynch 7  18:50, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm. But never mind. ;) Thanks. -  Vivvt Talk 18:51, 4 May 2012 (UTC)

Anon hopping to make poor edits
Any chance of a look-see at Sheohar (Lok Sabha constituency), Sheohar etc? I think that the first probably should be semi'd. You did pass a general comment on my TP on Friday in response to a wall of text, so I quite understand if you consider that to make you involved. - Sitush (talk) 07:48, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I agree, and its semi-d. Meh, it was just a passing comment.  Lynch 7  17:49, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, I considered it to be a passing comment but I do not want to give the appearance of compromising you. I rather think that you understood more of the complaint upon which you commented than I did, but a basic application of policies such as WP:V and WP:BLP suffice wrt the article and I am pleased that you have done that which you have. They'll be back, of course, but when that happens I will find another admin or just take it to WP:RFPP. Either method will spread the load. They will hopefully get the message before I turn to all 1500 or so of the admins, minus those who are not active. - Sitush (talk) 23:37, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
 * If they come back, a longer protection should do, and then they usually forget about it. Not much of a worry.  Lynch 7  18:14, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

New quality assessments for the education program
I'm leaving this message because you were one of the editors who assessed articles for the Public Policy Initiative last year. The Education Program is running a new set of assessments to evaluate the impact of the current set of courses on Wikipedia. If you would like to contribute assessments, please take a look at Ambassadors/Research/Article quality and do as many assessments as you have time for. Please also let anyone else know who you think might be interested in being an assessor. Thanks -- Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 10:24, 13 May 2012 (UTC)

In the news
A French film wins a Best film award in a French film festival and it goes in "In the news" section!!! §§AnimeshKulkarni (talk) 12:29, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Cannes is an international festival. Multiple nations come forward to present their films. The venue of the festival is France, that's all.  Secret of success  ( talk )  16:01, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I am not gonna comment anything. Just point out. §§AnimeshKulkarni (talk) 17:10, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, Cannes is an international festival, and a French movie just happened to win the award. Besides, it is way way more notable than the Indian National Film awards (which, I suppose, is the reference you are making). The National Film Awards aren't even as notable as the Filmfare awards, forget Cannes.  Lynch 7  02:23, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
 * No comments again! (Don't mind, nothing to do with you people personally.) §§AnimeshKulkarni (talk) 18:33, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Just to add a few, I've always wondered why DFF don't announce nominees like other major awards. Atleast Filmfare does that. &mdash; Vensatry (Ping me)  14:02, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * DFF collects entries from all films for all categories. Hence all films that applied are nominees. This year there were 375 nominees. (including non-feature films and writings) They could announce which film applied in which category. But that seems a cumbersome thing to me. §§AnimeshKulkarni (talk) 14:20, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * For NFAs, there are no nominations but only considerations. The considerations are also suggested by film producers per section. Committee does not review complete film for all the awards but only for the given suggestions. So that seems logical from DFF's point of view for not disclosing the considerations.

Talking about notability of NFAs, government is not giving any special treatment to any awards. Be it Bharat Ratna or Jnanpith Award. All the awards are published on the respective sites. Its the media which decides the notability. NFAs becomes notable only if Bollywood gets the awards and not otherwise!! For this year, it looked like only Vidya Balan was awarded and others were just invited to clap for her success. Thanks. -  Vivvt Talk 15:07, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, I tend to agree with you Vivvt. Bollywood gets all the media attention. But hey that's how it is: If arthouse films got the attention that a Bollywood/Tollywood blockbuster did, then it just wouldn't be right. After all, commercial films are made to appeal to the masses, and awards like Flimfare/Screen awards etc. cater to that target group. NFA is for all kinds of films, and its unrealistic to expect the masses to suddenly acquire a taste for art films. So, in short: I guess its good the way it is!  Lynch 7  17:30, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Looks like you've got and missed my point at the same time. :) Thanks. -  Vivvt Talk 20:10, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * All entries cannot be considered nominees. I've read in several news sites that some actor was in the contest of getting Best Actor award until the last round. Hence contestants in the final round must be the nominees. Hundreds of films make entries and you cannot say whatever films that enter are nominees. Coming to Filmfare, I don't think even they consider awarding seriously. They are termed popular awards and mainly consider only mainstream films. They never awarded a popular actor like Rajinikanth on more than one occasion (that too for a film which nobody would've expected) . They gave two major awards "Best Director" and "Best Actor" awards for Kanchivaram, a pure art film and still referred by the media as popular awards. Also they have awarded Satyajit Ray only twice and some of the art-film directors from Malayalam cinema were never awarded. I don't think they seriously consider presenting the awards. &mdash; Vensatry  (Ping me)  04:41, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
