Apologies ..

Dear Mr. Faiz,

I tender my apologies for that statement, I realized later when I noticed the changes made by you that your actual actions were to make the article meet standard guidelines. However, at that time I already shot a message to you.

Thanks very much for your efforts, actually this article was composed by a person whose English seemed to be as second language with lots of grammatical errors followed by emotional statements at that time the neutrality was targeted of this articles followed by the language then grammar. I am working on this article since months to get rectified hence I requested everyone not to edit this article with any authentic reference.

I thank you once gain for putting your efforts, pls help us out to get rid of al tags. Apologies again.Humaliwalay (talk) 06:14, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

Suggestion appreciated

However I am afraid to say that your suggestion of [All Gov references provided refer the place as Haloor & not Hallaur. I think this also needs to be fixed. May be content of article should be moved to name space Haloor & a redirect put at Hallaur pointing to Haloor.] is not acceptable because Uttar Pradesh Government references are subjected to the Bhojpuri Language pronunciations and local accent. However the name Hallaur is universally accepted name. As per the records of national Government and all state level Governments wherever Hallauris have themselves registered, the name is spelled as Hallaur.

Would like to support with Example of India. India is spelled in English, but in Hindi which is the national language of India, India become Bharat Ganrajya, in Urdu which is one of the official language of India, India is spelled as Hindustan, in Arabic its Al-Hind etc.

Similar is the case with Iran which is redirected from Persia. Lebanon in English but Lubnaan in Arabic. Similar is the case with Hallaur and Haloor. the page Haloor is already created by me and redirected to Hallaur without any Ambiguity. the universally accepted name is Hallaur not Haloor. all schools and other institutions whether govt or private are spelled as Hallaur not Haloor. Hope my examples have made this clear. Pls help us out in adding more info and maintaining the neutrality of article. I would appreciate your feedback on articles created by me as follows:

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 17:18, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Mayawati

I agree with you that caste is a major issue in Indian politics and it is often a large consideration for many voters. However, I don't think it does WP justice to present a one-sided portrayal of Maywati. It's granted that a lot of her supporters view her as a symbol for India's dalits but I think that if this fact gets mentioned, one should also point out the complete picture; namely that her detractors/opponents view her as a woman who has illegitimately amassed a great deal of wealth in her rise to power. Please note though that I'm not suggesting she's any more or less corrupt than any other politician (Indian or otherwise). Thanks, Vedant (talk) 16:47, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi Sayed, I was just wondering whether or not you had any issues with the article now more specifically regarding the allegations regarding her amassing of wealth. I agree with Dr.K that for the most part these allegations are unsubstantiated in the sense that there exists no hard evidence linking her to anything but it is notable that a lot of her detractors bring up the issue so I feel it's somewhat important to mention. Do you agree. Thanks, Vedant (talk) 03:18, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

WikiProject India Newsletter Volume V, Issue no. 1 - (June 2010)

Project News WP:IND Newsletter is back! It's been nearly a year since the last edition, but we hope to bring out issues on a more regular basis now. The India Wikiproject was set up to increasing coverage of India-related topics on Wikipedia, and over the past few months the focus has been on improving article quality. A number of the project's featured articles underwent featured article reviews over the past year. Of these, Darjeeling and Flag of India survived the review process, while the rest were demoted. During the same period, Gangtok, Harbhajan Singh, Darjeeling and Mysore were featured on the main page respectively on August 20, September 17, November 6 and December 29, 2009. Meanwhile, articles on topics as diverse as Political history of Mysore and Coorg (1565–1760), Marwari horse and Iravan were promoted as featured articles, and respectively appeared on the main page on March 25, May 17 and May 28, 2010. Consequently, the number of FA-class articles under the project's scope dropped from 67 in August 2009 to 63 in June 2010. The number of good articles, however, saw a more than 40% increase, from 91 to 130 during the same period, while the number of featured lists saw a 33% increase from 12 to 16. Due to the recent policy changes regarding unreferenced Biographies of Living People (BLPs), an effort was started in January 2010 to source all unreferenced BLPs coming under Wikiproject India. 1200 such articles were identified initially and more were added to the list later. Due to the sourcing effort, the number of Indian unreferenced BLPs is down to 565 currently. During February-April 2010, There was a large scale disruption of Kerala related articles by a Thrissur based IP vandal. Editing from a dynamic IP BSNL connection, the vandal changed dates of birth, death and ages of a number of Malayalam and Tamil film actors. Later he added a few international biographies to his list. He also marked some living people like Arvind Swamy as dead. A month long range block was imposed on his IP range two times and each time he came back to vandalise dates once the block expired. Currently the range has been blocked for three months till September 11, 2010. What's New? Three members of the project, Abecedare, Tinu Cherian and SpacemanSpiff received their sysop mops in October-December 2009. Congratulations! This picture, shot in India, won the Commons:Picture of the Year contest 2009. Translations of the description in Indian languages are solicited. Wikipedians in Bangalore have been organising periodic meetups over the past year, in collaboration with the Centre for Internet and Society. The next meetup is scheduled for July 18, 2010. Indian and other Wikipedians from all Wikipedias in various languages are welcome to attend.

Current proposals and discussions Please add Wikipedia talk:Noticeboard for India-related topics to your watchlist in order to stay updated with the latest discussions regarding various aspects of the project. A discussion is underway here to reach a consensus regarding the use of Indian number names (lakh, crore etc.) in Wikipedia articles. Please participate and add your comments. Join the effort to source and save unreferenced Indian BLPs. Some unintended vandalism is going on at the Assamese Wikipedia by the sole active editor. This is a request for Assamese-conversant Wikipedians to help resolve the issue. A discussion is in progress here in order to determine whether non-Western (including Indian) forms of classical music should be referred to by the nomenclature of art music instead of classical music. Please participate and add your comments. Watchlist the Articles for Deletions page for India related discussions. Opinions from more Indian Wikipedians are required in many of the discussions. The World Classical Tamil Conference 2010 is at present underway in Coimbatore, and the Tamil Wikipedia is actively involved at the event. A detailed report will follow in the next issue. Wikimania 2010 is happening in Poland from July 7-11. Indian Wikipedians attending include Gurubrahma, Shiju Alex, Ravidreams , Santhosh Thottingal, Tinu Cherian, WMF Board member Bishakha Datta and Advisory Board member Achal Prabala. We wish them all the best! More on their experiences in the next issue. If you've just joined, add your name to the Members section of WikiProject India. You'll get a mention in the next issue of the Newsletter and get it delivered as desired. Also, please include your own promotions and awards in future issues. Don't be shy! Lastly, this is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue (Issue 2 – (July 2010)). Any and all contributions are welcome.

Urdu Wikipedia

Please could you help out at the Urdu Wikipedia? There are no Indian editors there, despite the fact that Urdu is an Indian language; and is not native to Pakistan. It has lead to the editors there using POVs about India; like "Maqbuza" Kashmir etc... which I have tried to remove; and is also unfair and misleading.

Battle of Karbala article was tagged in November 2009, I have done a major exercise on that article and removed tags by citing spources and removing personal tone used in the language. Please urgently I seek your full co-operation, have a review of that article completely as please correct the things which are tagetting the neutrality of that article. I seek you contributions and co-operation and feedback on the article for the portions edited by me. Please work hard on the article.Humaliwalay (talk) 14:04, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Urdu

Hi,

You're correct, the BBC ref never states that they're considering both Hindi and Urdu together, and so saying that is OR. However, the ref is clearly incorrect if taken literally: most of those 490M consider their language "Hindi", even if Hindi really is just Urdu. Unless we can rewrite the articles to indicate that Hindi is Urdu, it's misleading to count Hindi speakers as Urdu speakers without acknowledgement. If I'm wrong and Urdu really has octupled in just 13 years, there should be reliable sources indicating that, where the definition of "Urdu" and of "speaker" is made clear. Anyway, please take it to Talk. — kwami (talk) 09:58, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
