User talk:Roland zh

Hi, again, after DE-WP, also increasingly related to Wikimedia Commons, just uploads so needed, as well as and so meaningful South India related edits in strictly reduced dimensions – after eight years contributions frustrated day by day about increasing toleration, imho even silently support of vandalism/mobbing/trolling by parts of the present Wikimedia Commons (WC) administratorship... as part of longtime line of an accordingly 'list' of 'reasons' please see closing: no mediation asked for, even even not a single answer by WC admins Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/User problems between 15 January and 21 January 2015... not for the first time as mentioned. Notwithstanding that, please still have fun, Roland zh (talk) 11:54, 29 January 2015 (UTC) :-))

Edit of AdyaPrasad Pandey Page
Hello Dear Mr. Roland zh this is to informa you that Adya Prasad Pandey is not a vice chancellor of College and University he is a Vice Chancellor of Manipur University which is a Central University like Banaras Hindu University and Aligarh Muslim University as Central University includes some colleges but they are constituent colleges run by University so requesting you to move back to Vice Chancellor of Indian University.

Thank you for putting the title back. I realized that I had made an error due to the uniqueness of its organization and was trying to make that correction. Daniel the Monk (talk) 20:26, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Park Street, Kolkata, without good reason. They need to have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Disambiguation link notification for October 17
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Gilmore Girls, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Reunion. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Speedy deletion nomination of Ilana Rapp
Hello Roland zh,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Ilana Rapp for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Trivialist (talk) 01:14, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

Non-diffusing categories
When you make new categories for people restricted by gender within a larger non-gender-restricted category (such as your new Category:Indian women mathematicians), they must be tagged as non-diffusing categories (as I have now done for the Indian women mathematicians), and members of the parent category should not be removed from it when adding them to the child category. The reason is to avoid ghettoizing the women and making it so that when people go to the main category they only see the men. See WP:DUPCAT for more detailed guidance. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:25, 27 September 2016 (UTC)

20th/21st century categories of people
You should be aware that there's a consensus against the creation of people categories for the 20th and 21st centuries, see eg Categories_for_discussion/Log/2010_March_8. It's not a particularly distinctive way of categorising people as the vast majority of biographies fall into such categories.Le Deluge (talk) 12:51, 12 December 2016 (UTC)

Please do not remove articles from existing categories to place them in non-existent categories, as you did in these 2 edits:. Both edits used WP:HotCat, so you would have been aware that the categories did not exist.

 * Roland, there's no need to be snarky. You removed articles from a category which actually exists, and placed them in non-existent categories.  After categorising those articles, you did several other edits, so you could have created the category before continuing.  Instead, you left the categ as a redlink, which is an error, so I reverted, and I took the trouble to notify you politely.
 * I didn't create the category myself because I didn't think it was a good idea. Having looked at, I still don't think it's a good idea, so will nominate it for merger. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 20:53, 19 May 2017 (UTC)
