Waltham Town Lock
Hi. :) I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know that I've removed the speedy template from this article. I've seen buildings interpreted as companies or groups of people, as with churches, but evidence of other articles on water locks suggests that these are rather treated rather as geographical articles. Since A7 is for non-controversial, clear-cut deletions only, I have defaulted to declining the speedy nomination. That said, I certainly agree with you that it doesn't indicate importance! Since some topics are considered important by default (articles on rivers, for instance), I had a look at the geography section on common outcomes for deletion debates to see if I could find precedent on water locks, but it doesn't seem to be specifically addressed. I've tagged it with the relevant wikiprojects, which may bring interested editors who can help determine if deletion should be pursued through other means. Meanwhile, of course, you may wish to pursue other deletion processes yourself. I've got this article watchlisted, as I am curious to know how water locks are handled. I've also watchlisted your page for a time. If you want to talk about it further, just drop me a note here. And thanks for keeping an eye out on article quality. :) --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:34, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Great contributions!
Hello Ravichandar! How are you? I am also a Humanist. I think we have similar beliefs. I have seen your contributions and you have done a great job. Your contributions to the article History of the British salt tax in India are excellent. One thing: years are not wikilinked when alone. Guidelines recommend not wikilinking to years when they are alone, without specific context and rationale for linking to them. Hence it's "(1835)", not "(1835)". On the other hand, full dates should always be wikilinked so as to ensure the date will be rendered as formatted according to the reader's date preferences; hence, "(May 5, 1835)", not "(May 5, 1835)".

Article Nacel: subject to speedy deletion
Dear Ravi,

How are you? I've seen that you had a look at my article on Nacel today. I've noticed that my article is subject to speedy deletion. I would like to contest this speedy deletion as I really want to write a short description of this organization, Nacel, active in language education all over the world. American High Schools in Minneapolis, Beijing or Korea are also part of this organization, so I think it may be of interest for Wikipedia users. This organization and the partner organizations of the Nacel network have sent millions of students since 1957 (date of creation) all over the world so I really think that it may be of interest for people learning languages to know about this network.

Another similar organization, EF Education, has also an article on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EF_Education. This organization also organizes language travels abroad and participate in language improvement and intercultural understanding.

I want to give information on the history of the organization and how language travels have been organized all over the world during the past 50 years. I would be happy if Wikipedia could keep this article online. I'm ready to make changes and add information on the text if needed, it's not a problem.

Thank you in advance,

Article language courses / subject to speedy deletion
Dear Ravi,

My article "language courses" has already been deleted but I don't understand why, as it is a description of what is a language course and it's very similar to another article of this field: language school : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_school.

I would like to describe in this article what is a language course, what is the content of a language course, what should a person interested in a language school expect to find, useful information etc... It will be a general description of a language course. I think that it could be of interest for many persons.

I'm ready to re-write the article if needed.

Please let me know your comments.

Hi Ravi, I don't know why you had created the page Kaadavarkon to represent User:Kaadavarkon. The user had been reported by me and has already been banned as a sock puppet of Vyaghradhataki.

Avichi Meiyappa Chettiar
Hi. I am interested to help improve the article as far as I can. Regarding filmography, can you please find out a source where the films are listed? the article has WP:MoS issues, for example, the citation superscripts comes after the punctuation marks, not before. I can try to see these aspects. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 07:23, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Regarding the NPOV tag at Desiya Murpokku Dravida Kazhagam
You've placed a POV tag here but have not initiated a talk page discussion. What is the issue? I trust this is an oversight, however, please furnish an issue for discussion. It is my custom to remove POV tags that fail to raise specific, actionable items for I regard the lack of such as a frivolous and disruptive misuse of the tag. See POV. Take care. Gosgood (talk) 11:17, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Ditto Justice Party (India). What is the issue? What sort of actionable item do you propose to restore neutrality? These tags, at present cannot be acted upon because you are not furnishing specific, critical observations about how certain passages in the articles fail at taking a neutral, unbiased points of view. Please furnish specific, actionable advice on the talk pages or I will remove the tags as being frivolously applied. Thank you. Gosgood (talk) 19:26, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Re: Sachidananda Bharathi- I
Kunnuvarankottai village is now in Dindigul district (madurai district was divided into many smaller districts after 1965) and not as you have mentioned in the article "presently in Madura district" and it was in Madura district when this Biography was translated by R Krishnaswami iyer in 1965.

The pincode of this village is 624220.
