Hello, I'm Muhandes. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Indian Institute of Management Bodh Gaya, but you didn't provide a reliable source.

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Vivek Ray. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Indian Institute of Management Bodh Gaya, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the request edit template);
 * disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID). Thank you. Muhandes (talk) 19:53, 25 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Sorry for the late reply. I am just a student of IIM Bodh Gaya presently studying there. I don't receive any compensation to write about it. I just want to expand the article with relevant information. So, can I edit the article if I have reliable references and sources? Thank You Vivek Ray (talk) 20:55, 21 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi Vivek Ray. As a student you obviously have a conflict of interest. The text I linked above discusses how such a conflict should be managed. Specifically, propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the request edit template). --Muhandes (talk) 13:03, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I have proposed some changes on Talk:Indian Institute of Management Bodh Gaya. Please make the requested additions. Thank You Vivek Ray (talk) 16:40, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

Your submission: Draft:10th Mirchi Music Awards
When reviewing submissions, we run a copyright scan which matches your submission with the references you used. And it grieves me to say that the scan picked up a 21.3% confidence of similarity with the stated website on the declination banner of your submission. And after I thoroughly check through, some words cannot be rephrased like the singer's name. So I think I'll pass on the copyvio. My apologies. BTW, I saw that your article sourced Youtube as a source. User generated content is not really encouraged to be cited. Cheers and happy editing. EROS message 11:16, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * thanks for clearing that. And about the Youtube citation, it's a temporary one. I will change it once they update it on their official website. However, the video referenced by me has been uploaded through Radio Mirchi's official/verified channel. Also, I have resubmitted my draft. So, if you can, please review it. I will be removing that citation and information as of now. Thanks once again. Vivek Ray (talk) 16:45, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

Unsourced commentary
Hi Vivek, re: this edit, per MOS:FILM, Wikipedia editors should not be acting as critical response aggregators. If we want to summarise the overall critical response to a film, we must provide a source that summarises the overall critical response to a film. Part of the problem is that if we cherrypick reviews and then summarise those reviews, we are actively inserting our personal biases into an article. If I like a film, I might be more likely to choose positive reviews, whether I'm doing it on purpose or not. And if we go to an article that already has reviews, and then try to summarise that selection, we might be enforcing someone else's selection bias. This is why we should only quote reliable sources.

Additionally, phrasing like "mixed to positive", "positive to mixed", "mixed to negative", etc. phrasing is widely considered meaningless by multiple WikiProjects. "Mixed" already means "positive and negative", so "positive to mixed" would mean "positive to positive and negative". Please avoid such phrasing. Thank you, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 12:34, 20 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you for that information. It will help me in my future edits. Though, I would like to clarify that I didn't write anything myself. I was just copying it from the source page while merging as is mentioned in WP:MERGETEXT. You can find the original text here in the second paragraph. It felt absurd to me but I thought to let it be as it has survived on the source page. But thank you for making it concise. Vivek Ray (talk) 12:56, 20 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Ahhhh... I should have read your edit summary where you clearly explain that the content is being merged... Sorry about that. Please disregard the above. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 12:59, 20 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Just a quick question. In the 'Awards and nominations' section of any film/person, which awards are worth mentioning? Referring to Jacqueline Fernandez, most of the awards are unheard of - at least by me! This user is adding some awards which are unheard of or not much is available on Google. He/she is providing references but those are not notable I guess. Like for example this edit, the reference is some kind of survey form or something. I went through the discussion page of WikiProject Film/Indian cinema task force and found this and this quite relevant to my situation, but not many users had replied on these threads to make a proper discussion. So, I need some help here. Thanks a lot Vivek Ray (talk) 13:19, 20 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Awards are problematic. I think people create them as money-making ventures, and I'm sure that in some cases they're in cahoots wtih marketing groups to give their actor clients extra promotional boosts. As a general unwritten rule, if an award doesn't have an article at Wikipedia, it's probably not worth mentioning. This isn't a random thing I'm making up. If you look at List of child actors from Canada, you'll notice that most of the kids listed have articles. This is because we don't want people using Wikipedia as a directory, and you can imagine that every grandmother in Canada would love to add the names of their actor grandkids. Generally speaking, if an entry doesn't have an article, then notability has not been properly established for it. If you look at this discussion, while it focuses more on award article creation, you can see some disdain, ex: "I'd suggest editors watch List of accolades received by Carol (film) for indiscriminate entries." Also some stuff here . Do you have anything to add here? How would you decide whether or not to keep an award in an article like this? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:44, 20 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Per WP:FILMCRITICLIST: Awards included in lists should have a Wikipedia article to demonstrate notability. Because of the proliferation of film festivals and "award mills", festival awards should be added with discretion, with inclusion subject to consensus. Awards bestowed by web-only entities are not included. I haven't looked through the list to see which ones meet the criteria but it's fairly straightforward. Betty Logan (talk) 20:01, 21 May 2018 (UTC)

My edit
Hello Sir, I would like to inform you that the rating column that I had added in the bollywood films of 2018 was about the ratings of all the movies. I was editing it and in the first phase itself, it was removed. I didn't understood the reason. Can you please explain it to me? IAmPushpak (talk) 06:18, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi, you replaced the director cell with rating and changed the entry for 1921. Rest of the entries were about directors only. You can see your final change here. Also, I am not sure if ratings are supposed to be displayed on the 'List of films' article. I haven't seen it yet. If you want to add rating of any film, you can do it on their respective article page by providing proper references. You can read about referencing over here. Additionally, IMDb is not considered a source. You might want to read WP:CITEIMDB, before citing IMDb. If there is any more questions, feel free to connect. Thanks Vivek Ray (talk) 06:31, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

My edit
Yes Sir since I am new here, I was just checking if it works properly. So I had edited just one column and was planning to complete the rest by today.

And one more thing, I thought rating would be a good option to have while searching for the recent movies. Anyways, if you think that it is not required then no problem. IAmPushpak (talk) 06:35, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
 * If you would like to experiment, please use the Sandbox or your own sandbox. Using your own sandbox will preserve it from getting removed. Also, it's not about what I think or not think! If you feel there should be a rating column, you can add them after having a discussion and reaching to consensus over here or here, though I would tell you to go for the second link. But I would suggest before doing any of that, participate in The Wikipedia Adventure as it will help you to know how to edit and do other things on Wikipedia. Also, I would be posting a welcome message on your talk page. I ask you to read through the links and policies if you want to stay and contribute on Wikipedia without getting blocked by someone.


 * And, no need to create a new section every time. You can reply to that old section by placing a Template:Reply to before your message. Feel free to reach me again! Thanks Vivek Ray (talk) 07:00, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

Your articles
I see that you've created some Mirchi Music Awards articles. All of them have only primary sources, from organisation's own website. You remove native names from articles talking about Indic script this Indic script that but your own articles are improperly sourced. I don't think anyone of them will survive an AfD. Add enough reliable sources from news website, if you don't I'll slap AfD templates on them (jk I'll just add the sources myself if you don't). TryKid (talk) 18:36, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi, first of all those articles that you mentioned do not have "only primary sources from organisation's own website". There were 1-3 independent news articles referenced. I have added some more. Please, go through them and let me know if they can be improved, or help me by improving them! Actually, was thinking to add them since past few days but was just procrastinating! Thank you for threatening me out of my procrastination phase! It's always helpful to get rid of that monkey! LOL


 * Also, it's a bit confusing. I have seen various articles about awards citing the organisation's own website. Some of them are even Featured List! Like for example: National Film Award for Best Actress, National Film Award for Best Actor, 65th National Film Awards (not FL). There are more National Film Awards and Filmfare Awards articles with citations of their own websites for the list of nominees/winners/jury/etc. There are articles related to Oscars and Golden Globe which cite mostly (or sometimes, only) their own webpages and are Featured Lists. (I am not comparing MMA with these prestigious awards BTW!) This led me to assume that awards websites can be cited for the list of nominees/winners/jury. So, please help me by clarifying.


 * Going back to the articles created by me, they were reviewed and approved by the 'new page reviewer' group and that led me to believe that my citations are OK. And, since you are going to have a look at them, can you please assess the pages for quality? I believe the articles will come under WP:FILM, WP:INDIA and WP:PRIZE.


 * Regarding the Indic script thing, I am not against it or for it. I am totally neutral about it. I was just removing them because the MOS says they should not be present. If you want to add back anything that I have deleted, you can do so giving your reasons in the edit summary. I will not remove it again. But yeah, do tell me about any such re-addition so that I can remove those pages from my AWB list.


 * BTW, how did you come to know about my AWB truck? Thanks Vivek Ray (talk) 05:07, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
 * , Primary Sources: Primary sources can be used for like uncontroversial claims like who started the award, when it started, who was the organizer. But, you've to include non-primary sources to establish notability. 5-6 news articles from websites like Times of India or The Hindu really help. You are right, primary sources can be cited for nominee list or things like that, just like the TV show itself is the source for credits, plots character list etc. But, like I said, reliable sources to establish notability. NPR and Review: Your articles look really good, so maybe that's why they weren't touched by New Page Reviewers. I don't review articles for quality, as I'm not part of those WikiProjects and I don't believe that I'm competent enough to 'review' articles. You can add WikiProject templates on them, how to do it is written on every wikiproject page, but I personally believe that WikiProject aren't very helpful, besides a list of FA articles of that subject so that I can model my articles after them. Indic: Yeah you aren't alone in this Indic script thing many people do it and blindly follow rules like this. Yeah rules are good they maintain quality, MOS is good guide for making articles look good and shiny, but remember Wikipedia rule 0: If a rule stops your from improving Wikipedia, then ignore that rule. Or something like that, but you got the idea I think. I not the best editor here so everything I say may be wrong but you your own judgement. AWB truck I know because I regularly view some user's contributions page, just to see what people are up to and if any new drama is brewing. Cyphoidbomb has best contributions, always tagging new users with warnings. That's a very good way to meet new people. Bye and Thanks. TryKid (talk) 06:34, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Yup! That's why I stopped removing native languages as of now. Need to ask around about it and know/learn more. Will just be doing general fixes/clean up with AWB for the time being. And thank you for your comments! Vivek Ray (talk) 06:45, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Talk:Naagin (TV series) has a discussion on it (last one on the page, titled No Indic Script). TryKid (talk) 08:15, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Ah, thanks for sharing this link! Learnt a bit more about how WP works. And, I request you to share some more of such helpful discussions whenever you get time and not busy with your stuff. Thanks again Vivek Ray (talk) 08:43, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

YouTube
Hi Vivek, re: this edit summary, just a note that while YouTube itself isn't a reliable source, if an otherwise reliable source has a video on YouTube, we can use that as a reference, so long as we're pointing to a verified channel (We don't want to point to potential copyright violations).

I have no opinions about Lehren TV (I've never personally heard of them) I just wanted to address the generalisation about YouTube. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 14:25, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you for this information. Even I was wondering the same thing that YouTube channel of RS can be considered reliable. But, then was not sure as my draft was declined because I had cited YouTube (though the channel was reliable!). Anyways, I don't know much about Lehren TV either, but I watched the video which was referenced and found that most of the supporting cast details are incorrect or speculation. Thanks again!

Bepannah
Hi Vivek, is it necessary to write episodic updates to the Plot section? It is kind of meaningless. Csgir (talk) 04:44, 1 August 2018 (UTC)
 * No, not at all! The 'Plot' section for a TV series should be within 500 words. If someone starts writing episode-wise update, the length will run over the word limit. To know more about how to write a plot for a TV series, you can read MOS:TVPLOT. It is really helpful. Regarding Bepannah, I have put a 'long plot' template and a comment that the plot should be within 500 words. But they are ignored by the users who update it every night after the show airs. Thanks to User:Nusrat21's copyediting/trimming the plot is not ridiculously big! Additionally, a separate sub-section of '6 Months Later' looks really absurd. It can be written in prose like "After six months, Zoya is..." or any other way which is more pleasant to read. I have changed it twice but some IP added back the sub-section heading! What do you think about it? Thanks Vivek Ray (talk) 06:53, 1 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Exactly, the "6 months later" section seems like a episodic update done right after the show airs every night. I don't mind the "6 Months Later" sub-section to denote a leap. Will trim that section in some time.Csgir (talk) 09:23, 1 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Copyediting done. Have a look! Csgir (talk) 09:52, 1 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot! Also, I request you to do the necessary copyediting/trimming from time to time. Else, it will become too large. Thanks again Vivek Ray (talk) 15:44, 2 August 2018 (UTC)

Harsh Rathod Poke me!  09:42, 30 June 2018 (UTC)

2. Can you please improve prose of my latest edit to Draft:October (soundtrack) and check the facts. Harsh Rathod Poke me!  14:58, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi, sorry I can't work on it right now as I am a bit busy. I will go through it later. In the mean time, you can ask User:Csgir for help. He is really good with editing and has helped me on many occasion. Thanks! Vivek Ray (talk) 14:11, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for the kind help. Harsh Rathod Poke me!  14:13, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi User:Vivek Ray, thanks for the recommendation! I went ahead and edited the draft of User:Harshrathod50. Hope it helps. Csgir (talk) 05:19, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your efforts, yesterday I was about to write to you about this but was indulged in some other work and forgot. Harsh Rathod  Poke me!  05:53, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I have done some changes. Please go through it. Thanks Vivek Ray (talk) 06:48, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Aah! You added one more quotation. I was also thinking add it but feared that this would go under WP:QUOTEFARM. But this was not the case I think. Thanks! Harsh Rathod  Poke me!  08:34, 3 August 2018 (UTC)

Paltan
Plzz creat paltan movie page. The trailer of movie has released now. Sush150 (talk) 15:25, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
 * There is already a page for Paltan (film) but currently it redirects to J. P. Dutta. I have asked for the older version to be restored. You can edit it once it is done. Thanks. Vivek Ray (talk) 15:40, 2 August 2018 (UTC)

Thanks a lot... Sush150 (talk) 07:24, 4 August 2018 (UTC)

Manmarziyaan
Hi I'm Sush150 My dear friend I made changes after watching the official trailer of movie.so not need for provid reliable source. These changes are real and match the information of movie. I am not made fake changes. Sush150 (talk) 07:10, 9 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Other readers have not watched the trailer. So I request you to cite a reliable source for your information. In case it is from trailer, just cite the link of the official trailer. Later, you can replace it with a reliable news article. Also you added runtime for Gold (2018 film). What was the source for that? The film has not released yet and so needs a citation. Thanks Vivek Ray (talk) 07:28, 9 August 2018 (UTC)

T series
Hi Vivek, I saw that you fixed up the dangling disambiguation links into T series in no time (while I was doing it manually ;-). I tried to trick a bot into fixing up another bunch of them, but it seems to be such an easy job for you that we might not need to wait for the bot to come around: If you have fun and time, please have a look at:

All incoming links to T-Series should be piped to point to Super Cassettes Industries T-Series.

Thanks. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 11:35, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I was using DisamAssist to repair the links. But after the double-redirect thing, it is not detecting any incoming links at T series. Maybe redirecting T-Series back to the disambiguation page T series might do the trick as DisamAssist cannot be used at T-Series or T-Series (company). Can you restore the previous version where you redirected T-Series to the disamb page? Thanks Vivek Ray (talk) 12:04, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I see. I have restored the old link now. The tool should now see lots of incoming links to be disambiguated. Since they all pointed to the same company page originally, they don't need to be checked individually. Thanks. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 12:19, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi, all the incoming links from the Article namespace have been disambiguated. I am going to remove the maintenance tag. Thanks! Vivek Ray (talk) 18:15, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you, Vivek! :-) (There's one dangling transclusion into T-Series - right now, I can't find the source for it, do you?)
 * --Matthiaspaul (talk) 18:21, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Sorry, couldn't find it. You may ask R'n'B for help. Vivek Ray (talk) 18:42, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Can you move the page Super Cassettes Industries T-Series to T-Series (company) or similar as that would be inline with the naming conventions. The current page title isn't the correct name of the company nor is it known as such. Thanks. Gotitbro (talk) 05:52, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I don't have moving rights. You can ask Matthiaspaul to do the same. Thanks Vivek Ray (talk) 06:01, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Can you see if the title can be fixed? Thanks. Gotitbro (talk) 06:11, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Done. :-) --Matthiaspaul (talk) 08:26, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I see the links still point to Super Cassettes Industries T-Series, can they be replaced with the T-Series (company)? Gotitbro (talk) 03:00, 17 August 2018 (UTC)

Reg : Bepannah Screenplay credits
Hi Vivek,

This is regarding the Bepannah article. I added in the name of the editor based on the data provided in the episodic credits. Here is a screenshot - the correct screenplay and dialogue writers must be Ishita Moitra and Koyal Chaudari ( Koyal's name is missing from the list). The text is in hindi though. Hope this helps. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bepannah_writers_screnshot.png Ujsr (talk) 03:30, 26 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, noted. Thank you. Vivek Ray (talk) 06:02, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

Request for help/review
Hi. Since you're part of WikiProject Awards, I'm reaching out to you for review and/or advice on improving the 2018 Nobel Peace Prize article. I've also posted to the Project's talk-page and a couple other editors as well. Any tips and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Litjade (talk) 11:19, 12 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi, I skimmed through the article and it looks really good. You should go ahead and ask for peer review for more eyeballs/opinions. Thanks! Vivek Ray (talk) 11:37, 12 December 2018 (UTC)
 * That's good news. Thank you! Just to confirm, do you mean I should follow the peer-review request instructions at WP:PRG? Litjade (talk) 12:02, 12 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes. You can also go through WP:FAC and WP:GAI. Thanks. Vivek Ray (talk) 12:15, 12 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the advice. (Glad I asked!) I followed WP:GAI and placed the "start review" template on Talk:2018 Nobel Peace Prize. —Litjade (talk) 17:25, 12 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Oops, I see I didn't "ping" you in my last message! Sorry for messing up. Anyways, I have changed the article to B-class as I think it satisfies the criteria easily. Vivek Ray (talk) 17:51, 12 December 2018 (UTC)
 * A thousand thanks! (Is it a faux pas not to ping you on your own talk-page? My apologies, if so.) I'll rest my eyes while, hopefully, fresher eyes lead to new ideas for improving the article. Thanks again. —Litjade (talk) 18:49, 12 December 2018 (UTC)

Cheers

 * Thank you! Cheers to you too and a very merry Christmas! Vivek Ray (talk) 20:22, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
