The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep,

And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep.

Disambiguation link notification for March 8

Hi. When you recently edited Chitragupta (composer), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Gopalganj district (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 10:52, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback Request

Can I have rollback rights? I promise I will do good and I think I have demonstrated it. --HIAW ! 00:40, 9 March 2012 (UTC) [reply]

I am sure that you will do good with the rollback rights. However, I have remained partially active for last so many months, and it will take some more time for me to get familiar with several administrative actions. As such, I suggest you to please place your request on Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Rollback. Happy editing. --Bhadani (talk) 04:35, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you ...

La Digue Article Assessment

I noticed that you previously assessed the La Digue article as Stub for WikiProject Africa, and I would like to request your assistance in resolving a dispute I am currently involved in with User:Highschoolpuppettier relating to his recent attempts to have the article re-assessed through WikiProject Biography despite the fact that I explained to him that the article is not within the scope of WikiProject Biography, and that he needed to re-submit his request through a WikiProject affiliated with the article such as WikiProject Africa. Having said that, I agree with him that the article is in need of re-assessment, but should be done through WikiProject Africa, which I am not affiliated with. Any assistance you can provide in resolving this matter would be most appreciated. --TommyBoy (talk) 22:12, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind, the article has been assessed as C-class by another user. --TommyBoy (talk) 07:39, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation to the April Wikification Drive

Hi there! I thought you might be interested in WikiProject Wikify's April Wikification Backlog Elimination Drive. We'll be trying to reduce the backlog size by over 1,300 articles and we need your help! Hard-working participants in the drive will receive awards for their contributions, including a brand new one for the single largest wikified article! All you have to do is put an asterisk next to the largest article you've wikified, and coordinators will check its wordcount after the drive ends. If you have a spare moment, please join and wikify an article or tell your friends. Thanks!

Note: The drive started April 1, and you can sign up anytime!

United States Education Program: Wiki-Project Management -- Interview Request

Hello Bhadani,

I apologize for the lateness of this message, but if you are still willing to join in our work, please email me using Wikipedia's email function so that we can contact you formally.

Proposed deletion of Raghubar Das

The article Raghubar Das has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable, local politician. Not a particularly notable post.

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. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. MBisanz ^talk 03:54, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If Wikipedians want to delete this page, let them delete this because I know many Wikipedia editors really do not understand much about Indian matters. Anyway, thanks for informing me. --Bhadani (talk) 13:07, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's not a matter of Wikipedians knowing or not knowing about India, it's a matter of the policy WP:Notability (people). It's incumbent on the supporters of the article to find proper evidence to establish notability; if they fail to do so by default the article will go up for deletion. The standards are even higher because this person is still living, and for accuracy and his own protection the standards of [[Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons] must be met to avoid deletion. If you have references from WP:Reliable sources indicating Raghubar Das meets the criteria, by all means please apply them. This is not a judgement on Das, nor on India, but simply a matter of the article not having enough sourcing to meet policy requirements. MatthewVanitas (talk) 16:25, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The article does have such a source - the source identifies him as a deputy chief minister of Jharkand, and this is stated in the article. A position comparable to Lt Governor of California (Jharkand's population is comparable to that of CA) would meet WP:POLITICIAN. Guettarda (talk) 16:35, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Certainly, and The Hindu is a solid WP:RS. The issue is it's only one source, and honestly given the BLP and WP:N threshold these days I would've suggested getting the article up to at least a full paragraph with 2-3 footnotes minimum before moving it from drafting to published. I'm certainly not disputing the notability of the office, just agreeing that one footnote is rather sparse, and the article is an extremely short stub at the moment. I wouldn't agree with "prod", but I do think it should be tagged "notability" until it has 2-3 references. Again, sorry if I (and maybe others) gave a mistaken impression that we thought his position/state isn't important, it's just the shortness/sparsity of the article, so again would suggest in the future building up such a stub slightly more before launching it to avoid such clashes. MatthewVanitas (talk) 17:12, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I do thank people who has enlightened me on these aspects of Wikipedia. If the consensus is to delete, let this "Wikipedia run by consensus" should delete the page. I do not care much, and I have encountered such approach earlier too. And, this is the precise reason that I have almost stopped contributing to Wikipedia. --Bhadani (talk) 17:19, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Getting lectured by the newcomers (ie, anyone who joined in the wave of 2006 or later) is par for the course ;) Guettarda (talk) 17:25, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Anyway, it is "all in a day's work". There may be several people around the globe who may think that The Hindu is a newspaper run by some sadhus. :-)) --Bhadani (talk) 17:38, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you --Bhadani (talk) 17:49, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome! It's very kind of you. Guettarda (talk) 18:08, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

But I thought everyone in the Mother Country was a sadhu (or at least was morally superior to us, with half our culture lost and our bloodlines intermingled...), or used to, until I discovered that they used electric lights and candles for Divali in India, and all my illusions were shattered. ;) Guettarda (talk) 18:08, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If we can stop the snide jabs at post-2006 editors (feel free to take a look at my contrib history and see if I'm a "newcomer" despite arriving in 2008), jabs at non-Indians, etc: there is no "consensus" to delete. One person prod'ed it, an editor removed it, I pointed out that it needs more sourcing. That's all there is to it. You can either avail yourselves of the plentiful number of sources on GoogleNews, or maybe I'll just do it myself in a few days. There's no point to drop down into self-pity over having not provided enough references for a WP:BLP article as per policy. MatthewVanitas (talk) 18:21, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No comments. --Bhadani (talk) 12:07, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Articles for deletion/Pakistan Murdabad

Hello, need your opinion. I had added the afd here to India Deletion list. And User:Mar4d removed from the list. When it is clearly mentioned in the 'History' section that the slogan was used in India and by whom, how come its not related ? -- ɑηsuмaη ^{ʈ ᶏ ɭ Ϟ} 19:22, 2 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
