The peace dove

Peace Dove I think you felt really hurt. And, this is by way of just a gesture of goodwill. You are free to initiate suitable measures against me as deemed fit by you. The decision of the wiki-community shall be acceptable to me. --Bhadani 13:18, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

Urban data on districts

Hello Anwar, Good job updating the urban data on the district articles. Here is barnstar for that. May I suggest that you add a sub-heading, "Demographics" and add the information under it. Thanks, Ganeshk (talk) 18:22, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

I, Ganeshk, present you this working man's barnstar, in appreciation of his efforts updating demographic data on Indian district articles. Ganeshk (talk) 18:22, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Vijay picture

Hello, Anwar, I noticed your changes of copyright information of the Vijay picture. You tagged it as "no information on his copyright status". Copyright status information was provided, along with the copyright holder - is anything wrong with the copyright issue I am not aware of? --Plumcouch 07:24, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Yes, its not a screenshot and its not from Aathi. It was a wallpaper collage copyrighted by indiaglitz.com Anwar saadat 13:53, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Hello, Anwar. I went to the official page, http://www.aathithefilm.com/ and took it from there. I re-tagged it as promotional picture, as it is a promo picture for the movie, if it's not a screenie. That should do. Best regards, --Plumcouch 16:54, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Featured list removal candidates

I noticed recently that you nominated List of Indian districts for removal. Earlier, the old discussion, from a previous removal attempt was displaying. It was for that reason that I reverted your edits.

I have since seen that you wish to renominate it for removal. In that case, please revert your edits to the page for the current nomination because a record has to be kept of it. Move it to some appropriate place, such as Wikipedia:Featured list removal candidates/List of Indian districts/Archive 1. Then, write the new removal nomination at the redirect page. This way, a record of the old discussion is kept outside of the edit history. This is said in a different way at Wikipedia:Featured list removal candidates.

PS: I noticed that your username is Anwar Saadat. Since there is a real-life historical figure with the name Anwar Sadat, it would probably benefit you to either change your username or at least change your signature (preferences) because some people might think that it is an inappropriate username. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 00:03, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

I am not sure if my daddy would be pleased if I change my (user)name. So that's out of the question. Aloan has been kind enough to revert, move and redirect the renomination as you said. I am not good at housekeeping. How to change my signature? Anwar saadat 15:57, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Would this help you? - Aksi_great (talk) 16:00, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

I think I got it. Anwar 16:04, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Sukh's RFA - Thanks!

Thank you for your vote on my RfA. Unfortunately there was no consensus reached at 43 support, 18 oppose and 8 neutral. I've just found out that there is a feature in "my preferences" that forces me to use edit summaries. I've now got it enabled :) Thanks again. Sukh | ਸੁਖ | Talk 15:51, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

Economics

Hello Anwar. I'd like to tell you that despite the previous disagreement about Ajith Kumar, I think that you are doing an excellent job with the economic statistics. Your contributions are valuable. Keep it up!Blnguyen | Have your say!!! - review me 01:38, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

Merci beaucoup!

Thank you,Anwar saadat! Thank you for voting for my recent RfA, which passed (to my extreme surprise and shock) with a total tally of 66/15/2. Although you didn't give me a support vote, I would nevertheless like to thank you for your helpful comments and offer a helping hand in any admin-related tasks that may be required -- it's as simple as leaving a message on my talkpage. Thanks again! -→Buchanan-Hermit™/!? 22:41, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Request

Hi, I see that you use Tamil in your edit summaries many a time. That would be problematic for people who are not conversant with the language. Since this is the English WP, I request you to stick to English. In case you are interested in contributing in Tamil, you may find the Tamil Wikipedia more relevant. Thanks, --Gurubrahma 06:10, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Something is fishy with this page

Help:Displaying_a_formula. Is it supposed to be like this - blank! Anwar 09:08, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

I've fixed it. Stifle (talk) 09:14, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Regarding User:Holy Ganga

I'm sorry you think that my tool is doing harm to Wikipedia, and I certainly do not wish for this to be the case. I'm looking into the situation with Holy Ganga, though I might add that the appropriate place to report users who perhaps should not be using the tool would be at User talk:AmiDaniel/VP/Abuse. If what you claim about his recent 3RR blocks is true, I will remove him from the list of approved users. AmiDaniel (talk) 21:19, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

I've asked Holy Ganga to comment on the matter; however, he has yet to do so. There seems to be consensus among myself and others after reviewing the case in depth to take no action against him currently, and so unless you can provide any further evidence on the matter, he will not lose his privilege of using the tool. I take all allegations that someone has abused this tool quite seriously, as I've been gravely concerned about abuse since day one. Thus, if you can substantiate your claim that he should not be using it, I will oblige. Please voice your opinion here. I also don't completely understand why you're opposing my RfA on these grounds, but if you feel that it's a reason to oppose, then I will respect that. By the way, I've also changed my header on this message from "Arming the Vandal" back to "Regarding User:Holy Ganga," and I'd prefer if you would please not put words in my mouth. Thanks. AmiDaniel (talk) 02:07, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

CSD G5

I've taken down the db CSD G5 on the following pages:

• Thirupathi
• Jayam
• List of popular Kollywood films
• Mallika Kapoor
• Ramesh Khanna
• Ramyakrishna
• Sadaf Mohammed Syed
• Sandhya
• South Filmfare Award for Best Actor (Tamil)

I hope this is okay. If you still feel that they warrant deletion on content, please feel free to bring them to AfD. Thank you -- Samir धर्म 07:42, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

concerns are mounting

Anwarbhai - the concerns regarding your behavior are mounting. It is obvious that you are a productive editor - it would be great to work with you here. But you are not giving that opportunity to anyone by behaving irresponsibily and insulting so many decent editors. Wikipedia is a brotherhood of encyclopedia-builders. Your hostile behavior is the exact kind of thing which can kill WP. Not even Jimbo Wales would be allowed to do what you're doing. You need to listen to the advice given by people who don't want to be your enemies, and improve. We can have a frank talk, but you need to take these steps. Rama's Arrow 16:23, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

no personal attacks

Anwarbhai - your refactoring your talkpage and derogatory remarks amount to a personal attack against editors who are trying to talk to you. As you were advised on Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#A_Troll_supports_Vandal_and_takes_over_my_talk_page, and by your previous blocks by Nichalp and Essjay, you need to realize the error of your ways.

Please see WP:NPA, remove the attacking format of your talkpage by removing the insulting headers and stop this behavior. We are willing to talk frank and honestly with you on any issues you might have. You've not given this method a chance and that's disrupting WP and wasting all our time - we should be building an encyclopedia, not quarrelling. Rama's Arrow 17:19, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

I hope you also realize that a frank apology is in order from you to Nobleeagle, Sundar and Aksi great. Rama's Arrow 17:22, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Warning

Please understand the policies and procedures of WP properly before trying to apply them. G5 applies only to those pages created by a banned user while they were banned. It obviously means that it doesn't apply to pages created before they were banned. Please take time to understand why someone is removing your speedy tags rather than simply reverting their actions. Continuing in this manner would result in a block. You are free to apply other deletion mechanisms such as other CSD tags, PROD or AFD if they are applicable. --Gurubrahma 18:57, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

This is a chart of bans of the proven puppets of the vandal Prin. I believe all articles created by his puppets after the first ban date (11 April) are eligible for speedy del under { db-ban }.

Ban Date	Ban Duration	Puppet/Puppeteer
11 April	48 hours	User:Prin
14 April	96 hours	User:Prin
19 April	1 month	User:Yellow
23 April	Indefinite	User:Yellow, User:Cumbi, User:R.Madhavan, User:Jathu
24 April	Indefinite	User:The_Man's_Plans
10 May	Indefinite	User:Naan_Kadavul
17 May	Indefinite	User:Prin, User:Jath16, User:Benzee
18 May	Indefinite	User:CoolJ
22 May	Indefinite	User:Anwar_saadat_the_muslim_extremist
24 May	Indefinite	User:Prince_06, User:Ghajini, User:Anwari_Begum

The following articles were created after 11 April by his puppets - Jayam, List_of_popular_Kollywood_films, Mallika_Kapoor, Ramesh_Khanna, Sadaf_Mohammed_Syed, Sandhya, South_Filmfare_Award_for_Best_Actor_(Tamil)

Anwar 21:01, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

I think you are confusing ban and block. These two are two different things. The account Prin was banned on 17 May. Also, if deletion going by the date of banning was so simple, even a bot could do it. It is not. The admins need to look at other editors of the article etc. Also, it'd be better if you put a notice on your talkpage saying that you'd reply here. I was waiting for a reply from you on my talkpage! --Gurubrahma 04:46, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

UK

Lovely table

I like it, I like it! Have only seen the Medway economics table, but I'm guessing you've done a lot more. Nice one: a really valuable addition to Wikipedia. And buddy, sort yourself out before you get banned, eh? Being a "mature civil editor, with wide-ranging interests" sounds a great idea. All the best, JackyR | Talk 17:40, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Will certainly do anything helpful if I can, but I don't quite get you: "conforms"? JackyR | Talk 20:17, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Yep like conform to all senses. See above posts. Anwar 20:19, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Dorset

Dorset is a featured article, it is supposed to represent our best work, so you shouldn't just go dumping stuff in without consideration for how it fits and whether it contributes anything to the article. I appologise for not giving a proper edit summary, but I was intending to make further edits which would have made the explanation redundant. Here is why I reverted:

1. Redundant changes to article structure
2. Inappropriate presentation for this article
3. The data is just some raw numbers:
   1. Those who will understand the data straight away probably won't be the sort who come to Wikipedia to look for it.
   2. Those reading the article for curiosity/learning probably won't learn much of use from the table.
   3. Without comparing the GVA to other regions/counties/cities/the UK as a whole, it tells us nothing about the county. I am already working on a comparison with neighbouring counties.
   4. Raw data comparing years is again meaningless to the vast majority of readers. A sentence telling us whether GVA grew more or less than the national average would tell us more about the state of the economy.

Joe D (t) 21:32, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Regarding your second revert. If that's what you believe, do feel free to start a website that lists random unconnected facts. The rest of us are trying to write an encyclopedia. Joe D (t) 21:34, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Do you believe narrations are more effective than tables. They aid tables. They can never replace tables. Otherwise, you have to explain the agri-trend, industry trend and services' trend in so many words. Tables are more efficient and aesthetic. Economy sections can never be redundant. I suggest you keep the table in addition to any narration or inference of your words for inter-county comparisons or relative growth vis-a-vis nation. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia with multimedia capabilities. It is best to avail all those features for pedagogical purposes. Appreciating your civility. Anwar 21:41, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Economic stats tables again

I suppose it would be shedload of work, but it would be interesting to include GVA per capita. Otherwise it doesn't meaan anything useful to say that London has a larger GVA than Rutland, but does the average person in Rutland produce more than the average Londoner? Is there a way to modify the template so that it calculates that figure without you having to revisit every page that you've already done? --Concrete Cowboy 23:29, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

GVA per capita is a arbitrary figure unlike GVA which is actual. So those variables should probably be used with caution. GVA data is useful in getting a practical idea of trend of industry-wise relative growth and market potential. I believe such aggregate figures are more effective in business planning as well as pedagogy. Bcoz, it hardly matters to a curious businessman if Rutland is poorer or richer than London if all his supplies, products, staff and markets are established in Rutland only. I have no clue about inserting scripts into tables for auto-sum. Anwar 02:49, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
