Dowry system in India

I am working on User:Maheshkumaryadav/Pink sandbox. Mahesh Kumar Yadav (talk) 14:08, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. I look at it either tomorrow or the day after (I may not be on WP much tomorrow; not sure yet). Qwyrxian (talk) 14:26, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

Is the section(User:Maheshkumaryadav/Pink sandbox) sufficient enough to be taken to Dowry system in India or is it needed to be developed further. Mahesh Kumar Yadav (talk) 07:23, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

I'm going to make comments on User talk:Maheshkumaryadav/Pink sandbox. My overall impression is that it seems interesting and well written. However, after checking just a few of the references, I'm already finding problems. I'll comment over there. However, it may take me time as you've done a lot of work and I want to check it thoroughly. Qwyrxian (talk) 02:24, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

Nomination of List of villages in Haryana for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of villages in Haryana is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of villages in Haryana until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Qwyrxian (talk) 05:25, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Just ignore that; it's an automated message because I created the AfD for the list with a tool. Sorry, but this one has to go--of the small number of blue links, almost none of those actually point to villages in Haryana. As I explained in AfD, this list actually makes it harder to improve coverage of villages in India, because it would take significant effort just to get the list to the point where it had no information rather than inaccurate information as it does now.

Proposed deletion of Nano City

The article Nano City has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A classic example of why WP:CRYSTAL exists. This scheme was cancelled - see, for example, http://www.indianexpress.com/news/nano-city-project-called-off/643290/ or generally GSearch "nano city project called off".

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Sitush (talk) 11:33, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Maheshkumaryadav/Blue sandbox

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on User:Maheshkumaryadav/Blue sandbox, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Haven't heard from you in a while

I haven't heard from you in a while, and I see you haven't been editing Wikipedia much. Do you have any questions, or need any help or suggestions? Qwyrxian (talk) 06:32, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Nowadays i am getting less spare time, that's the reason. I shall be incorporating the change in the sandbox advised by you. Thanks. Mahesh Kumar Yadav (talk) 07:38, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

No problem, I totally understand. I just wanted to make sure I hadn't missed something from your or hadn't addressed some concern. Qwyrxian (talk) 08:42, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Sockpuppet investigation

Hi Mahesh, please accept my sincere apologies if I have got this wrong but there has been a worrying development today and in the circumstances I have decided it is best to open a sockpuppet investigation, which you can find here. I have let your mentor know that I have done this.

Hopefully it will be a coincidence and we can all forget about it. - Sitush (talk) 14:40, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

I've blocked your account indefinitely. Using another account to get around the ANI consensus that you would work with a mentor, a consensus that meant you did not receive a community ban, is not acceptable behaviour. You can be unblocked, if you can convince an administrator you will work with your mentor, and edit from this account and this account only. Courcelles 22:41, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Is it 100% certain that he socked? Maheshkumaryadav?? Do you have anything to say??? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:04, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Nothing is ever really 100% certain with CU, but it is likely the check found a combination of unique UA strings combined with an editing pattern linking the two users. Viriditas (talk) 23:42, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

I see. I interpreted the report result as did find, therefore likely a sock, with likely referring only to the CU results, and not the behaviour. I gather that means, say, 70% likely as far as the CU is concerned. That plus the 80% likelihood of socking based on editing similarities, adds up to.....how's your maths? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:49, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

I think you're right; the CU results referred to the same dynamic IP and UA's. Does the result of "likely" also take into account editing similarities? For example, the pattern of dropping the master for the puppet in just over 24 hours time and proceeding along the same contribution history? I'm not a CU so I don't know the answer. Viriditas (talk) 09:05, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

The CU is the person who imposed the block here. There was evidence supplied at the SPI regarding editing patterns etc. The mentor is currently on a short wikibreak. Things may change when the mentor returns. - Sitush (talk) 13:22, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

Maheshkumaryadav: In case you are not aware: You can still edit this page. We await your comments. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:54, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Unbelievably disappointing. Disheartening. And for no benefit, in fact: we're still going to go through and delete or merge all of those articles you created, Mahesh. All you actually did was to cost serious editors a bunch of time, and have your articles live for all of a week or so. And, if you sock again, they won't even be up that long. Obviously, you're free to provide some sort of explanation here, but I can't imagine what could convince either me or an uninvolved admin to lift the block, given that the alternative to the mentoring was actually a ban. I'll have to think about whether or not, in fact, you should be banned instead of only indefinitely blocked. Please, do tell us, what the logic was behind the socking. If you prefer to contact me by email, go to my email page and send a message there. It really is a shame, because, if focused, you really could do a lot to improve English Wikipedia's admittedly below average coverage of India, the largest English speaking country.
