Sanskrit
Hi Sechzehn,

As you apparently speak some Sanskrit, I would like to ask you if you know of any good online dictionary for that language or if you can recommend any software for looking up Sanskrit words. Thanks for the information Watasenia 06:35, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

After I got my language skills in English and Japanese, I updated my language skills. Sechzehn 06:13, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate your contributions to the OpenBase article, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the article in your own words. For more information, take a look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Happy editing! Wakemp 03:27, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Welcome to Esperanza!
Welcome, Sechzehn, to Esperanza, the Wikipedia member association! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.

Now that you are a member, you might be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is the StressUnit, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. We have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.

In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Possibles.

I encourage you to take an active voice in the running of Esperanza. We have a small government system, headed by our Administrator general, Celestianpower, and guided by the Advisory Committee, Titoxd, JoanneB, and Freakofnurture.

If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact me by my talk page, Celestianpower by email or talk page, or the Esperanza talk page. Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users on our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). If you're new to IRC, please see the IRC Tutorial, which was written by one of our members. I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to be!

Thanks! G . H e  21:25, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

A short Esperanzial update
As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.

As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Esperanza/June 2006 elections.

Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, &mdash;Cel es tianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Sri Lankan Army
Dear my friend, This what i want to say. Before Accusing me for blanking the Human Rights Allegations section you have to go through the history page of Sri Lankan Army article. See, someone came from 64.231.40.234 IP did that blanking job. Its a Canadian IP. On that day I just did some corrections for two minor mistakes and one was done by 160.94.105.163. Believe me, I'm from Sri Lanka and I can even prove that if you want. My pal, I'm not blaming on you for this incidence. I know that you made a simple mistake. So I here by I'm asking from you to leave a message on talk page, about this incidence. Thank you, Lahiru_k 18:19, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

WikiProject NCSLC
Hi Sechzehn, we wanted to invite you to join this project to help clean Sri Lanka ethnic conflict related articles on wikipedia. NCSLC: Neutral Coverage of the Sri Lankan Conflict. Pls let me know your inputs and how to take it forward from here. We eagerly looking fwd to having you there. Cheers, Elalan 02:24, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi Sechzen, thanks a lot for your inputs. Could you pls tell me how to include a picture in it, without changing the template? Thanks. Btw, you are most invited to the comm :-) Sudharsansn 17:45, 16 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Great Sechzen, it looks good now. Could you pls tweak with the project banner and make it more presentable, by including links, etc..? Something like the code which you used in the members banner for automatic updation and related stuff?? Thanks a lot. Sudharsansn 18:16, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Great Sechzen, thanks for the work!! :-) Sudharsansn 10:27, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Civility
Hi Sechzen, there is a new kid, literally a kid, who is going beyond limits with scant respect for fellow editors and has gone overboard with his civility almost thrice inspite of friendly suggestions. Kindly intervene and warn him so as to avoid trivial conversations. He is dragging in things like how his parents brought him up, how we all should have been brought up, how he wants to honor the SL Army, how much of a pre-school kid 'I' am for all the good work I did on the VP page. I would pls ask you to interfere and issue him a strict civility warning and ask him to go through WP policies. The link is here and the user name is User:Iwazaki Thanks Sudharsansn 06:01, 20 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi Sechzen, Pls go through this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Velupillai_Prabhakaran&diff=82998537&oldid=82954817


 * Here Iwazaki has framed up two entire sections of his own, literally without any citation at all. The citations he has pointed to refer to a newspaper article which he has read sometime ago and is not a piece of evidence which can be verified by everybody who would be reading that article. It is something like 'I-saw-that-in-news-once' kind of a link. A strong msg needs to be sent out to Iwazaki who is violating almost every single policy of Wikipedia, Civility, NPOV, Verifiability, etc...I kindly request you to step in and take some action to avoid blanking-out vandalism and reverting to uncited versions of the article which transitively refers to Vandalism. Pls go through my posts here to justify removal of the sections and how he has responded here


 * The user has also been issued a final warning for Civility but continues his spree of personal attacks and diplomatic vandalism. Check this Iwazaki Talk page


 * This seems to be going on for almost a month inspite of several friendly suggestions and also Admin warnings. Kindly help. Thanks Sudharsansn 13:49, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Iwazaki referred to WP:PAIN
Hi Seczhen, could you please express whatever you had mentioned in Iwazaki's talk page here: WP Personal attack notice board I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks Sudharsansn 19:58, 22 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks a lot Sechzen. Could you probably leave a msg there? Thanks again! Sudharsansn 21:02, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Completely agreed, I assume perfectly good faith with everyone but it is irritating to note that at times this lack of good faith is so detrimental to an article, which to me spoils the very essence of Wiki. Eitherway, point taken! Thanks Sudharsansn 12:56, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

VP Page
I need your help in explaining Verifiability to Iwazaki here because he is framing up two sections based on nil evidence. Pls check this diff. Thanks Sudharsansn 13:30, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your message
Sorry I was not aware of the policy.Hence removed controversial content feeling it should be backed by citation.As I felt it did not have the citation .Very sorry about it

I felt the comment was harsh and needed a citation to be put there.I will not remove controversial content without citation.Anyway what I removed was

The entire Muslim and Sinhalese population of Jaffna was forced to leave within 48 hours in 1990 due to an ethnic clensing order by the LTTE. During this forced exodus, they were not allowed to take any of their belonging with them. LTTE had even removed the jewellery from the women that they were wearing at the time. Regards Harlowraman

Your language skills
You have mentioned all your language skills in your user boxes, but it is very sad to note that you don't have a native level user box to show your native language!!! After a thorough investigation about your work on wikipedia, I came across this user box which I can highly recommend to you.

SL Navy and Airforce
Sechzehn, on this point I think the stuff related the Sri Lankan airforce and navy should belong in their respective pages. You can perhaps add a link to mention see also under the human rights abuses section. In all fairness though, the human rights abuses shouldn't dominate the articles on the navy and airforce. In fact both of these pages require a lot more content and once thats there, there shoulb be room to insert the human rights abuses section. Elalan 04:10, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

 * No problem, we can just create an image called as 'Against Sinhala goons vandalism in Wikipedia', not a problem at all!! After all, we can exercise our democracy too User:Sudharsansn (talk· contribs) 18:41, 14 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Actually this image is copyright violation. Its Donkey from the movie Shrek superimposed on part of the LTTE logo.  The copyright permission  on this is invalid.  Elalan
 * The image is a copyright violation, plus the statement on the user box opposes certain wikipedian, which is against the rule of the project. The user pages are not mean to be a soapbox or insult/attack/oppose anyone particularly fellow wikipedians.  Elalan 20:13, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Comments on Vaharai bombing required
Hi Sechzehn,

When you have a minute can you look at the Vaharai bombing page. Thanks. Elalan 20:08, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Sinhala Vandalism
Pls read through this link to understand how my user page and the NCSLC being vandalized by Sinhala, pro-govt vandals!! Request you to voice your support and report everything that happens!! User:Sudharsansn (talk • contribs) 11:52, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Ghastly userbox
Note that a new userbox has been created by Lahiru and is being used by so many others. This is the one: Rather than saying that they want to support the Army, they would simply want to kiill all Tamils?

Isn't it that clear that Wiki is just not the place for any of them? User:Sudharsansn (talk • contribs) 13:16, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Periyar Vandalism
People have vandalised the page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periyar_Ramasami.I have reverted it with no changes .How do you use the revert command?

This page is clearly getting vandalised.

1:Only 1 name needs to be used either Periyar or EVR not 2 creates confusion to readers particularly foriegners.Periyar is how he is known.He is refered as Periyar in Tamil Nadu Government.[1] University is called Periyar Universityn named after him[2]

2: Periyar being likened to Hitler is potentially libellous as Hitler was responsible for millions of deaths whereas Periyar was not guilty of even one.Further no evidence or citation is given this comment.Periyar turned the offer to become the head of the Madras Presidency in 1939 after the Congress quit but he turned it down now to compare Hitler is wrong.

3:Brahmins:comments like The population of Brahmins in Tamil Nadu, which was about 10% in the 1920s, is today less than 3% as a result of persecution by EVR and his followers are strange as not even a Single Brahmin has been killed in the entire Dravidan movement. Further Rajaji,Jayalaitha and Janaki who were Chief Minsiters were Brahmins and ruled Tamil Nadu longer than any other single community and these statements are not backed by citations or evidence which are required.Jayalalitha is the head of a Dravidan Party

4: And the wording should be encyclopedic none emotional and contraversial lines like Within a span of 20 years, the Brahmins of Tamil Nadu, who had been living there for more than 2000 years, were turned into alien immigrants by the DK's propaganda. The speeches called for the elimination of Brahmins from Tamil Nadu, and the enslavement of Brahmin women. The speeches harkened back to an ancient Tamil glory, similar to Hitler's revival of ancient Germanic culture are not abcked by citations or Evidence

5:Further someone blanked His Childhood and Education 6:I have Reverted the Mass deletion done by 192.223.243.6 without changes

Please help.Thanks Harlowraman.

Commercial use of Image:John Doerr.jpg
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:John Doerr.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:John Doerr.jpg is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only" or "used with permission for use on Wikipedia only" which was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19 or is not used in any articles (CSD I3).

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license GFDL-self to license it under the GFDL, or cc-by-sa-2.5 to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use PD-self to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. This bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Image:John Doerr.jpg itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. If you have any questions about what to do next or why your image was nominated for speedy deletion please ask at Media copyright questions. Thanks. --Android Mouse Bot 2 21:08, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:SIPphone logo.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:SIPphone logo.gif. 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. 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. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 14:32, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Image:NUT1.jpg
A tag has been placed on Image:NUT1.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is a redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

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. - AWeenieMan (talk) 19:40, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Category:WikiProject NCSLC Articles
I notice that this category is unpopulated (empty). In other words, no Wikipedia pages belong to (are members of) it. If it remains unpopulated for four days, it may be deleted, without discussion, in accordance with Criteria for speedy deletion. I'm notifying you, the creator of the category, in case you wish to (re-)populate it by adding to articles/categories that belong in it.

I have also blanked the category page. This will not, in itself, cause the category to be deleted. It serves to document (in the page history) that the category was empty at the time of blanking and also to alert other watchers that the category is in jeopardy. You are welcome to revert the blanking if you wish. However, doing so will not prevent deletion if the category remains empty.

If you created the category in error, or it is no longer needed, you can speed up the deletion process by tagging it with db-author.
