hi

May I know why you have revereted my undo, Is it irrelevant to specify that Kannada is 3rd oldest Indian language after Sanskrit and Tamil. Regards... —Preceding unsigned comment added by IndiWorld (talk • contribs) 12:29, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Happy Rajyotsava

Congrats to you also!!. Finally after a gap of more than one year we have a main page article.Dineshkannambadi 00:10, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

Exciting. Happy Rajyotsava to you too. Gnanapiti 00:20, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

ರಾಜ್ಯೋತ್ಸವದ ಶುಭಾಷಯಗಳು. Exciting to see Karnataka on Main page. -- Naveen ^(talk) 02:15, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

There are two images I took at Belur that somehow ended up in wiki commmons, though I did not put it there. How shall we resolve this.? Image:Belur sthambha-buttalika.jpg‎; Image:Belur madanika.jpg‎; Dineshkannambadi 12:04, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Images on commons

I may be wrong, but I thought that I saw somewhere that the Commons had different rules about images, and that sometimes they deleted images without notifying the uploader on Wikipedia. Then the image would no longer be available for Wikipeidia. Is that not a danger? Thanks. --Mattisse 14:21, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

bot

I see that snakebot has been adding Tamil and Telugu bot names at the bottom of the articles for Vijayanagara kings. What exactly does the bot do when it adds a vernacular stuff like that. Does it make that article available for that language wiki? If so, why dont I see a Kannada equivalent being done? How can it be done?Dineshkannambadi 18:33, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

That bot adds interwiki links. That is, adding links to the same article in different language wikipedias.

If the article exists in Kannada wikipedia, then its interwiki link should get added by this bot. - KNM ^Talk 18:50, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

For example, see this edit. It has added Wikipedia article links from Kannada and Telugu language wikipedias, for the article Madikeri. Thanks - KNM ^Talk 19:26, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

I wonder who is moving these images to common. one more :Image:Buchesvara Korvangla.jpg.Dineshkannambadi 18:02, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

So its just a link to the existing English language article, not a translated article. Right? Which means a Telugu article could have an entirely different content compared to the English language article it is linked to. BTW, i notied KN has <5000 article, Telugu has 35,000.Dineshkannambadi 19:54, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I see it was promoted, during the very time that I was composing my comments! DK will surely read it where it is, and could act on it if he wishes. It is a good article in general. Regards, ImpuMozhi 21:20, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Hello!

Hey, I think you have a very bad impression of me after you saw me using my sister's PC, and even reporting this to an administrator. This led to my block, but I was shortly unblocked. What I wanted to say, is that it doesn't necessarily mean that I'm a bad editor. Plus, I know the article of Preity Zinta makes you very angry, especially when I'm a major contributor to it. If you want to tell me something, no need to use the edit summary for that. I'm open to criticism, and if you see me being a bit rude, please let me know and tell me that. Best regards, Shahid • ^Talk2me 18:11, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Responded in your talk page. - KNM ^Talk 18:36, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the help anyway. The article was not promoted, but I think it was a learning experience, wasn't it? Shahid • ^Talk2me 18:17, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

It certainly was. Thanks, - KNM ^Talk 18:36, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

I very much doubt that the article is way off a feature if many experienced editors supported it. We had clear supports from several adminsitrators and respected users who are very experienced in FA's and wikipedia -now if the article was way off why would they have supported it? ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^"Talk"? 19:10, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi there! Blofeld. Hope you remember we both worked on several DYKs in the past. :)

Regarding Zinta, yes the article is far away from FA quality, and that is my opinion, and you are welcome to differ from it, and so are several other editors. Also, I have given ample review comments which clearly say, what resulted in me coming to this opinion. Cheers, - KNM ^Talk 19:21, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Hello. I removed only Blofeld's comment which was cleared out and you can ask him, he will say that there is no problem. And, I removed the unreliable sites which were no longer in the article. Thanks, Shahid • ^Talk2me 01:54, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. Just a personal point, that's so sad that I'm now considered to be an editor with a bad history, who needs guidance at everything. Just because I was blocked after this another user hadn't discussed things on talk pages (like he does now), which led to my block of a 3RR rule, pulled by another one. My truly best regards, Shahid • ^Talk2me 02:06, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

I really don't know why this sentence is bad. She says that she learnt. So what's the problem? Nobody says that she is today. We write "as a child" - Ok - I'm going now. Tomorrow I'll think of a better way to add it. Regards, Shahid • ^Talk2me 02:24, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Angelina Jolie has a quote of her about her self-cut. Why Zinta can't have quote which indicates that she was popular at school and liked her life at school? Sorry, disagree. Shahid • ^Talk2me 02:27, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for editing the page friend. Yet, I must have disagreed with some removals. I've added them back things like "groomed in a...", "infrequent visits" (removed this actualt phrase "infrequent visits" - yes, I realised it's a POV), and literature; but rewrote keeping major neutrality. Please don't revert unless you disagree and want to discuss it. And please don't get angry, because we are on good terms now, and I'm considering you a very good editor (I know my opinion is not so important, but nevertheless...). I just want it to be as much informative as possible, like in Jolie's page. Your help is really much appreciated. Best regards, Shahid • ^Talk2me 02:47, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

I didn't intend to offend you, but I think it's more informative now than it was after your edits, because many things were removed. I didn't revert. My best regards, Shahid • ^Talk2me 08:51, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

I think your act was not right dear KNM. When it was obvious that many users who were objecting its FAC promotion and had some problems with me, would suggest to delist it. Shahid • ^Talk2me 10:56, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Tell me please, what problem do you have with self claims? Everything of her background life is actually told by her. Jolie can have self claims and Zinta cannot? You also reverted my edits. Please reply. Shahid • ^Talk2me 16:13, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Hey, no problem (I replied on my talk). Askman.com - non-RS? Shahid • ^Talk2me 18:22, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

I have no interest in this image at all, but please stop labeling it as a speedy deletion candidate when it is not. Please remove the watermarking or use WP:IFD to delete it instead of wasting administrator time by insisting on the wrong process. Thank you, Kusma (talk) 19:58, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your welcome. We share the first initial of our name! KVSTamilNadu 21:57, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Hello!

Hello KNM!

To avoid one more tiff with you and another opportunity of you going to an administrator to say that I own the page, please tell me, what's wrong with the distinct actresses fact when it's very well referenced? And why saying that Dil Chahta Hai is a romance which depicts... etc a POV again? Have you seen Jolie? Gia paragraph? The film depicts a world of sex, drugs and drama. So please explain the point. Please reply. Thanks, Shahid • ^Talk2me 17:02, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Ok. We are all in the article talk page. --Dwaipayan (talk) 17:22, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

KNM, please stop you. I don't own the article, I removed the surprise stuff. Here is the quote - "Credited with bringing a change in the image of Hindi film heroine, the dimpled lady from Himachal is known for her steadfast approach and honesty." What do you say? I don't know if you are Indian or not but please tell me how you interpret this quote from the ref. Shahid • ^Talk2me 19:30, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Please see this. Thank you, - KNM ^Talk 19:33, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

You poke fun at me now. Thank you for that. Shahid • ^Talk2me 19:34, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

What do you want from me guys? Could you please stop it? You have also reverted my edits. Not a whole revert, but you have also violated th 3RR rule, if I did. And I can provide diffs. Shahid • ^Talk2me 19:55, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Re: Staying away

Hi! Both of us have not interacted with Shahid prior to this Zinta article's FAC. However, we (you and me) know each other to some extent. And from this acquaintance, I am forced to tell you, do not stay away. The article is shaping up well, and should not be difficult for an FAC in 1 week or so, provided editors like you continue copyediting and improving. I have gone through majority of the citations, and maximum ~7-10 needs replacement (for the time being, I am not counting boxofficeindia website as debatable). The language is also improving. Let's give it a try :)--Dwaipayan (talk) 23:26, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of List of songs sung by Rajkumar for others

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. tennisman 02:07, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Review request

Hi. Could you take a look at Satellite Instructional Television Experiment and make suggestions for improvement at the talk page. I plan to take it to FAC asap. Thanks. And congrats on your many DYKs. - Aksi_great (talk) 18:09, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi. Thanks for the prompt review. I will try and expand the technical section. The article will probably end up being less than 30k. Don't know if article size is a criteria for FA. Will check that out. Images are going to be a problem. The only things that can be done is to add more maps if possible as there is almost nothing on the web about the experiment. - Aksi_great (talk) 18:43, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Could you take another look now? I have expanded the article a bit (20k now, Indian Standard Time is 17k). The Technical details section has been expanded. I have added a new section on international collaboration. My feeling now is that the article is as comprehensive as it can get. I have also merger the End of SITE section with the Impact section. And no more images can be found, we'll have to do with the 3 that are there on the page. - Aksi_great (talk) 11:06, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

images

KNM, How do I enter info on my user page about the images I have contributed to WIKI. For instance for templates , we write {{xxxyyyzzz}}. How do I do that and create a list of all the images so people can just pick it off my user page.Dineshkannambadi 18:32, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

All the 300+ images? Or will it be a new click into a page kind of a thing like you guys have for DYK's, etc? Fortunately, I have all my image names stored in a text file to cut and paste from.Dineshkannambadi 19:15, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Re to quick question

No we do not have the mention of catalogs (I read the article a while ago, as far as I remember there is no such mention). Ok, am removing catalog.--Dwaipayan (talk) 16:17, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Re: PR

Indeed, after seeing that edit, I told Shahid on his talk page to refrain from such behaviour. It is sometimes very difficult to make people understand that this personal stuffs ultimately leads to damage for the article. I am trying my best. Thanks for not furthering it there. And BTW, Mysore seems on its way to FAC, great!--Dwaipayan (talk) 17:37, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Re: PR

I thought that I would go for a PR too initially. But then I thought that this being a short article, I could handle comments during FAC itself. I will go through the article once again with fresh eyes and remove the small mistakes like spellings and units etc. - Aksi_great (talk) 18:26, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Wow that's great that you've created an article for that, but one user removes content. He's removed "popular" (fine for me), but he'd also removed it: "The website provides news related to Indian film industry, particularly Bollywood, film reviews and box office reports."

This doesn't need a ref even. Shahid • ^Talk2me 18:40, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

OK, fine. Thanks - KNM ^Talk 18:46, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
