:{{ping|Kailash29792}} I don't use it as often as I should, but it's an amazing tool. The two things you'd want to do is create a list of articles based on Bhargav's contribution history (and maybe his socks), which you can do in the AWB tool, and then apply a regular expression ("regex") find/replace. I'm no good with regex, but the kind folks at [[WT:AWB]] are usually helpful at writing them for me. Alternatively, if this sounds like it's beyond your interest, I could do it. I still have some cleanup to do in Tamil TV articles, but after that I could work on it. [[User:Cyphoidbomb|Cyphoidbomb]] ([[User talk:Cyphoidbomb#top|talk]]) 18:10, 25 July 2020 (UTC)

Persistent disruption on Radhe Shyam

Can we please get a page protection for this new movie. After I published it, IP vandals keep changing the formatting and the languages filmed and dubbed into and they also kept changing the production houses. SP013 (talk) 15:00, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@SP013: Sorry for the delay. Totally slipped my mind.  Done 3 weeks. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:14, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Similarities in 2 new users

I find that the editing style of two new Wikipedia users User:Prema Puriwala and User:Amiha Jhunjhunwala are quite similar, not being a proper one and proper format and adding some unnecessary informations in their edits in Anupamaa. Please see to it. With regards. Noobie anonymous (talk) 17:29, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

80s film Editing

I'll look into it. Enigmatic persona (talk) 01:50, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Editor Arjann

The editor Arjann keeps reverting my edits on these two occasions [1] and [2]. On the Dil Bechara Soundtrack I gave an explanation as why I was changing the resolution from 250x250 to 316x316 and I explained to him that 316x316 was a more clear version of the album art that also complies with Wikipedia Standards as I have created 2 soundtrack pages myself and the album covers for both of them the BOTs themselves reduced it from 500x500 to 316x316. Coming to the second one I said that I was simply trimming down the description for the music section as I felt that it was too much for just one single. I also changed the Infobox to Infobox Album and I added a tracklisting so that upcoming songs could be added and that majority of the Indian film pages without a seperate soundtrack page have these Infoboxes but the user had also reverted that stating no reason as to why. SP013 (talk) 16:20, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Dear SP013 you should please understand that to satisfy non-free use criteria, the total number of pixels in the uploaded image for any non-free image (i.e. the width in px × the height in px) should not exceed 100,000 – square images should therefore not exceed 316px. Also, refer WP:IMAGERES which clearly mention there is no hard-fix rule that it should be 316 px and so on. Why are forcing the bot to run when you know the rules.Arjann (talk) 16:29, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Arjann I have used the [3] which was on Wikipedia:IMAGERES that helps the user resize the image. Now coming to the point, the original album cover art comes in at around 500x500 on Google Images and on the tool page it says the 100000 pixels are the right amount for a non-free image on Wikipedia and entering in the 500x500 it resizes down to 316x316. Also why did you revert the image if I am trying to just improve the image for the reader as the lyrics writer is not readable on the image. Please understand as I am not trying to start an Edit War. SP013 (talk) 16:35, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
SP013 "I am trying to just improve the image for the reader as the lyrics writer is not readable on the image." Images are not meant for that. The information on the album art is already present in the page. What clarity are we seeking here? Read again: The image will display in the infobox in its real size, capped by the value of the user's "Thumbnail size" parameter in their appearance preferences, or the default (currently 220px) for non logged-in readers or users who have not set a different preference.
Arjann I am not trying to start an edit war but why are you trying to mock me as I was just trying to improve a situation. Also I am trying to resolve a situation but you are not complying either and you went and directly reported me for a "3RR" which I have not done but it was 2 reverts and also you should check as you have also reverted my image twice. SP013 (talk) 16:47, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
SP013 You are unwilling to co-operate although I am trying to explain you. Hence, I need mediation. You have also deleted sourced content on Cobra (2020 film) page You should please read WP:WWIN.
Arjann I am trying to cooperate with you but all you do is revert my edits and you have also violated the 3RR on the Cobra page as you have had 3 reverts well within 24 hours. SP013 (talk) 17:06, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
SP013 Sorry to say - you have deleted sourced and valid content. Secondly, you are of complaining nature. You are posting on Cyphoidbomb's page? For what? You could have started discussion directly with me. This talk a lot. Arjann (talk) 17:09, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Arjann Sorry brother but I needed a mediator for this conversation but if you want we can continue on your talk page. SP013 (talk) 17:11, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I came across this discussion late. Does anybody need my input? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 03:26, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Yes sir with your input I think we can end the discussion and cooperate with each other on what should be done on both these pages as you are an expert in Indian film pages. SP013 (talk) 15:41, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ramya Pandian

Kindly post your opinion about whether or not Ramya Pandian should be speedily deleted.TamilMirchi (talk) 22:39, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please unlock this page for editing for all so that the people can update and correct the content from time to time.FlyIndian14 (talk) 02:51, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@FlyIndian14: Dear brand-new editor, no, I won't, since most of the changes that occur are of poor quality, like this edit, where someone tries to delete clear content about Ashi Singh replacing Kaur, or this change where clear prose about Singh replacing Kaur was deleted in favour of ambiguous slashes that could be interpreted several different ways. Or here where Ashi Singh is again removed or here after that when it turned into the idiotic slashes again. Who has time to deal with this crap? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 03:22, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, and whatever you want to change there, you can post an edit request on the talk page. Bring quality references. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 03:23, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Cyphoidbomb: Why you are talking so rude and mocking me if I am a new editor. You are so much arrogant about you being an old editor. You are lashing out like I have done all the poor editing. I just wanted to shorten the plot length and add some references to make it look good. If you still don't want to unlock, it's your choice.FlyIndian14 (talk) 12:27, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@FlyIndian14: Fair point and I apologise. I have been dealing with a lot of problems that keep being reintroduced in hundreds of Indian articles, including the one mentioned above. When you become auto-confirmed, which will take a few days, and which will require you to make improvements to other articles, you will be able to edit the article. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 15:43, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There is a paragraph on this page under the sub-heading "1973-1983 - New Vrindaban and Sannyasa" that's poorly sourced contentious material. But it seems to have gotten there following a discussion on the talk page. So perhaps I shouldn't straightaway delete it. I have added my inputs to the discussion on the talk page under the already-existing sub-heading "Removal should be justified". Can you please look into this matter please? Wistleblow (talk) 12:23, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Wistleblow: I think you did the right thing by opening a discussion. Those editors don't look very active, so you might consider dropping {{talkback}} templates on their talk pages in case it might inspire a response. You're not required to do that, though. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 21:55, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. Thank you very much. Wistleblow (talk) 13:19, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Whilst I applaud your good work on the Digangana Suryavanshi article (I have no problem with the edits and you are doing great work) could you consider toning down the edit summaries? I personally find the promotional POV-pushing to be irritating, but it’s probable best not to say it out loud :-) - Chris.sherlock (talk) 22:41, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Chris.sherlock: For you, because you asked so nicely? Absolutely. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 22:45, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks mate. Keep up the great work! :-) - Chris.sherlock (talk) 22:58, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nominate article

Hi, i would like to nominate some of the articles for feature article, could you please help me how to do it. PK743 (talk) 10:48, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@PK743: Sorry, not my area of expertise. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 13:04, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, Thank you. PK743 (talk) 14:30, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Radhe Shyam Talk page

I do not understand why the ThaThinThaKiThaTha is giving me warnings about me just trying to convey him the message that we do not want to change the languages without a primary source can you please help out because he is unwilling to understand that we have agreed on not adding Tamil yet.

Protection

On basis of serious BLP violations going on here , I figured out you might be interested in protecting this page for a little while until the controversy cools down! Regards Megan Barris (Lets talk📧) 09:49, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Chithi is a 1999 series of Sun TV. After many years, in January 2020 a reboot version was launched which is depicted by the montage of the series as Chithi 2. While I named it Chithi (2020 TV series), being a reboot as per MOS:TV as in case like Kasautii Zindagii Kay (2001 TV series) and Kasautii Zindagii Kay (2018 TV series), User:Rvsran changed it to Chithi 2 recently. Can it be its acceptable title? With regards Noobie anonymous (talk) 12:21, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Noobie anonymous: Hey there, this isn't my area of expertise, but we typically only disambiguate in article titles if there is a reason to, and the community prefers the simplest disambiguation possible. So for example, at Chithi we see that there are potentially two series that could be confused for one another, so we probably couldn't just create an article on that 1999 series and call it "Chithi". For that reason, the simplest disambiguation we could use is Chithi (TV series), although I see you've changed it to Chithi (1999 TV series). I'm not sure that the latter is the preferred version. As for Chithi 2, do we think that there is any other project out there called "Chithi 2"? If not, then it should be fine as Chithi 2, because anybody searching for that would expect to find this reboot. If we knew that there were other projects similarly named, then we would might disambiguate as [[Chithi 2 (film)]] or [[Chithi 2 (TV series)]] or [[Chithi 2 (2020 Tamil TV series)]] vs. [[Chithi 2 (2020 Telugu TV series)]], etc. Hope that helps. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 15:43, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Cyphoidbomb: I understand your point. There is a Wikipedia article for a film Chithi due to which 1999 series was titled Chithi (TV series) to disambiguate them before. With a reboot in 2020, representing the former one as Chithi (TV series) and its reboot as Chithi 2 would be confusing right. So, I consider using 1999 TV series and 2020 (TV series in the title for distinguishing them properly as like in Sanjivani (2002 TV series) & its reboot Sanjivani (2019 TV series); Kasautii Zindagii Kay (2001 TV series) and its reboot Kasautii Zindagii Kay (2018 TV series).
