Oversight
Hey there, I believe you recently tried to oversight a page I deleted yesterday (at 15:58, 12 April 2007) possibly as a result of my request on the oversight list. The thing is, I can still see the article (as a deleted article) and I am under the impression that if it had been oversighted I would not be able to. Possibly my understanding of how oversight works in a matter like this is flawed, but I did want to doublecheck. I don't want to list the diff, so bang me an email if I'm being too vague. Cheers (and thanks for your help). Dina 17:28, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
 * To clarify, it's really the article title that needs to disappear, the content was just run-of-the-mill vandalism. Cheers. Dina 17:33, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Usurpation
Hi, one of the requests seem to have gotten a little lost at the top of the list ( Pill ← Pill- ). No rush but there doesn't seem to be any issues with it. Just thought I'd let you know as its not obvious it hasn't been done on a cursory glance at the page... WjBscribe 16:30, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Bharat Rakshak
Hello. I saw you editing a talkpage on my watchlist so I thought you may be able to answer my question. Is [www.bharat-rakshak.com Bharat Rakshak] considered a valid source in military history articles? The problem at hand is that people are against my writing up the information presented by BR on the 1967 Sino-Indian skirmish, which China does not place any emphasis at all and have published very little on. Do you know any other Indian military websites which may contain information on this topic? Regards. Traing 06:52, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

In regards to this comment, I was wondering how alerting users toward bigoted comments can somehow be "on a similar level" as espousing hatred toward 1/6 of the world's population. If this was a friendly note, then dont worry, I dont intend to fight vitriol with vitriol. Baka man  17:34, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Collaboration of the Week
Hi. I wanted to know the time after which a nominated article for collaboration of the week finally gets selected. The page says that this happens on each Sunday, but the article Religion in India (nominated on April 6 & having most votes) has still not been selected. Is this a mistake? Can anyone select the article? Thanks.--Shahab 08:03, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Shahbag Map
Hello. I have corrected the map, and created a map locator as well. But, can't get them done in *.svg format. I tried once and uploaded it to the commons, but it showed blanc. May be I can mail the illustrator files to someone who can save and upload the svg files. You can reach me by e-mail, check my user page or consult ragib. Aditya Kabir 16:39, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
 * What a person! I love this community. Would you reconsider your position on the FAC now? Or, may be I need to wrok some more on the article. Aditya Kabir 16:25, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Help needed. Can you explain the transport thing you propose a bit? Should I add stuff on the public bus services, taxi stands, rickshaw roads and such things? Or would it become a bit trivial? Also, I need a bit more help on the administration and geography things you mentioned earlier. Aditya Kabir 16:52, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Well... I guess, most, if not all, of your issues have been addressed. But, I'm not sure if it is adequate. Please, do check and tell. You remain as the sole gatekeeper of quality at Featured article candidates/Shahbag at the checking level. Aditya Kabir 06:33, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Kaziranga National Park images
Hi Nichalp. I've made edits to three of the images in this article and wondered if you'd mind taking a look and giving me a bit of feedback as to whether they're what you're after. I can have a go at the others here and there when I've got time (snowed under with university work at the moment) and I'd be happy to work with other people at FPC to try and put together a tutorial like you suggested, although I won't have time to dedicate to that until the summer. Happy editing, --YFB ¿  19:41, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Indian collaboration of the week news
As mentioned in Wikiproject India newsletter of March 2007, the weekly collaboration of the Indian wikiproject has fallen from its once high feats. This message is to request the users to visit the collaboration page and help rejuvenate it.

move of FA Indian Standard Time - I am sorry
Dear Nichalp,

I know do what I thought about allready nine days ago

I am sorry for the problems I caused you with the move of FA Indian Standard Time. Moving an FA page like I did, was not a good idea. Hopefully I will not be so bad to do that again. From my current point of view, it was a mistake. Sorry.

Best regards Tobias Conradi (Talk) 16:03, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

Request
Deat Nichalp, A recent newcomer to wikipedia, The way, the truth, and the light. I don't know your opinion on the username, but it appears to me that it violates Username policy, because it appears that it resembles to closely Jesus, a religious figure. I have suggested and he has agreed to third party review. Would you please intervene in the situation. -- Ra nd om  Say it here! 15:35, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Some links: Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life. I think that the user's name violates relevant wikipedia norms. --Bhadani (talk) 15:46, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Heads up
I noticed you seem to be around at the moment. You might like to know about this discussion: Bot owners' noticeboard. The discussions seems now be focusing on whether BAG are necessary and whether Bot policy (esp. the edit speed restriction) is merely arbitrary. I thought as a crat who does quite a lot of Bot approvals you might want to read/comment on the thread. WjBscribe 07:11, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Attention regarding Geography of India
While doing a research on Geography of West Bengal, I noticed that the article Geography of India, a FA is in a bad condition, probably it will not meet the WP:GA criteria. The article was featured on June 8, 2005 that is about 2 years back when the Wikipedia was not much organised, so it got FA easily. If any improvement is not done, it will get defeatured within no time. I am pointing out some of the errors in the article: This was the initial observation. Further comments are expected to improve the quality of the article. Amartyabag  TALK2ME  04:56, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Just letting you know that I noticed and fixed the logo you made for Airtel. What I did was convert the text to path (because otherwise we depend on our programs having the proper font), and then I removed the black dot from the eye, and I repositioned the red dot slightly.

Images to commons
Hi Nichalp, I've uploaded several images to Wikipedia. Now, I want to move those images to Wikimedia commons for obvious advantages. How do I go forward for that? Shall I just upload same images to Commons and request deletion here in Wikipedia? Please suggest. Gnanapiti 14:19, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Please help!
IP User 81.149.27.200 and 88.109.215.0 (who are clearly same if you look at their edits) have been repeatedly reverting my good faith edits on Khatri, Malhotra and Luthra. He also accuses me of vandalism.

I will let you judge the two versions yourself. Our diff on Khatri, Our diff on Malhotra, Our diff on Luthra. He also does not explain to me where the peacock claims on Luthra are, instead changing the category from a sourced one to an unsourced one. I think his motivation there is simply because I rvert him on Malhotra. He believes my surname is Luthra without any basis at all. Hopefully admins can judge the two versions. dishant 07:42, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Response to above claim

On the contrary dishant has been Petty stalking my edits and vandalising my and other users entries after his peacock claims about the Luthra family were reverted.

This claim to you appears in retaliation for my being one of four users having supported a Delete case for removal of an entry for an un noteworthy person Ankur Luthra by administrator Xoloz. The article was subsequently removed by Wikipedia.

Dishant55555 vandalism goes back to March after my  Correcting his Vanity claims about Luthra. You can see on this link he has made unsourced vanity claims including - and adding alleged prominent people with the surname Luthra who do not meet wikipedia guidelines for prominence.
 * "Many Luthra's are extremely successful in terms of business."
 * "The Gupta Dynasty assumed control of Northern India in 400 CE, and the Luthras joined forces with the Guptas to maintain law and order in what became India's Golden Age."
 * Luthras held prominent positions as rulers and warriors.

He has since been stalking and vandalising Malhotra, Khatri, Kapoor etc pages by users who have changed his edits to NPOV ones. See his vandalism of the Malhotra page for example where he has removed dozens of lines of entries with authoritative sources such as links to Indian government websites. He has vandalised the Malhotra page again today though I see another user has reverted his edit.

Could dishant please be blocked from doing so. He has already received warnings to stop.


 * The IP user is mincing facts. The versions that he brings up are long gone and I no longer condone them. Look at the current versions for which he is reverting me for and then make your own decision. dishant 00:10, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
