[edit]Invitation from the Guild of Copy Editors
The Guild of Copy Editors invites you to participate in their November 2011 Backlog elimination drive, a month-long effort to reduce the size of the copy edit backlog. The drive begins on November 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on November 30 at 23:59 (UTC). We will be tracking the number of 2010 articles (and specifically will be targeting the oldest three months), as we want to copy edit as many of these as possible. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copy edits more than 4,000 words, and special awards will be given to the top 5 in the following categories: "Number of articles", "Number of words", and "Number of articles of over 5,000 words". We hope to see you there! – Your drive coordinators: Diannaa, Chaosdruid, The Utahraptor, Slon02, and SMasters. |

India Image Vote Results Disagreement
[edit]Hi,
Thank you for voting in the India Demographics Image Vote. I have counted the results of the vote and displayed them here. The top 8 images with the most votes were displayed.
Unfortunately, User:Fowler&fowler believes that he should be the one that gets to pick the final images, despite the fact that all of us have voted. He has called me disruptive, and when I tried to explain myself, he has reverted my explanation on the talk page twice!!! How can a user just delete someone else's comments on the Talk page?
Wikipedia consensus says that the images that most people have agreed upon should be the ones in the rotation. One user can't just pick his own images when all of us have voted. What's the point of voting then?? I am not sure what to do.
Since you voted, please post your opinion here. Thanks. Nikkul (talk) 02:53, 29 October 2011 (UTC)

The nomination is too premature. The article is too far from FA at this stage. You may start with elevating the article to WP:GA standard. See the GA criteria. or you can ask for WP:Peer review for improvements. Let me know if you need more suggestions for improvement. Redtigerxyz Talk 14:10, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
Your signature
[edit]Hi Chitransh. It has been a long time since I interacted with you. I noticed that your signature ([[User:Chitransh Gaurav|<math>\mathfrak{Chitransh Gaurav}</math>]] <sup>([[User talk:Chitransh Gaurav|<math>Talk</math>]])</sup> ''{{Time|IST}}'') contains the {{Time}}
template. Please note that this template displays the current time and date at any given moment, meaning if it is 12 noon on December 31st, it will display that in the post. While every user is given freedom to have a custom signature, your signature should not have this Time template. Every post that you create, be it on your talk, any other user's talk or any article's talk, should have the timestamp when you actually wrote that post. So please remove the {{Time}}
template from your signature. Just type the four tildes at the end of your post and this signature and along with it, the current time and date will be added. Cheers! — Abhishek Talk 15:07, 4 December 2011 (UTC)

- Last October, you created a vector.css file containing the lines:
.mw-redirect {
- color: #4CBB17;

- What this does is set all wikilinks which are redirects—such as Hyderbad International Airport, which redirects to Begumpet Airport—to display in a green font.

Speedy deletion nomination of Chitraguptji Pooja
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Chitraguptji Pooja requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. →Στc. 05:13, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Prakruthi Nivas
[edit]You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.
Thank you.
A tag has been placed on Prakruthi Nivas, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article that does not provide sufficient context to identify its subject. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Click here to contest this speedy deletion which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}
) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Yasht101 (talk) 08:15, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification
[edit]Hi. When you recently edited Chitraguptji Pooja, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Petiole (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) 10:41, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
TB
[edit]You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
Regarding Deletion of Prakruthi Nivas
[edit]The article was deleted under A1 criteria in which the articles with less content are deleted.
In order to avoid it there are 3 options:
- Marking the page as stub
- Try placing a tag { { underconstruction } } (without the space in between the brackets)
- Creating a subpage of your userpage and creating the article there first. Then, once you've completed the article to an acceptable standard, you can create the article properly and copy everything from the subpage to the main article.
That way, you're less likely to leave half-finished articles lying around, which other users may mark for deletion. Happy editing! --Yasht101 (talk) 16:47, 5 February 2012 (UTC)

MOTDs (This space for rent)
[edit]You may have noticed over the past few days that the MOTD that you link to on your user page has simply displayed a red link. This is due to the fact that not enough people are reviewing pending MOTDs here. Please help us keep the MOTD template alive and simply go and review a few of the MOTDs in the list. That way we can have a real MOTD in the future rather than re-using (This space for rent). Any help would be appreciated! –pjoef (talk • contribs) 18:58, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
CSD
[edit]Why did u feel that its not important!? U need to go through CSD properly. Uttranchal Pradesh Congress Committee is a political wing that got majority and has formed the current government in Uttranchal.
Take it as WARNING or Suggestion but do take care of it next time!
Please be sincere on wikipedia and in tagging pages! Yasht101 14:50, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
Sorry, for the wrong tag(IF YOU FELT IT WAS WRONG), but you should create a list of Congress committees instead of creating a single line article for each committee. But, Utt Congress Did not get majority, it won 32 seats and that's not majority. I still feel it is not important at all, as it is the INC or UPA which won the seats, still I don't get it why is that committee to be an article of encyclopedic importance. I am still not convinced!
() 15:21, 1 November 2024 IST [refresh]
- The page is for Uttranchal (Which got Majority), NOT UP (Which did not got Majority). And there is no such policy for short articles as it is a stub. You should read this: STUB
- Look at these articles and increase ur knowledge about INC; All India Congress Committee (Which consists of 500 top politicians) CWC (The cheif decision making committee, consist of top 15 politicians).
- To make administration proper, INC has various depertments which look after politicial activities of there respective state. There is a article on list and it is Pradesh Congress Committee. Various departments consist of State level committees for e.g., GPCC for Gujarat, Uttranchal Pradesh Congress Committee for Uttranchal (That u think isnt important and tagged for SPEEDY DELETION). Members of Uttranchal Pradesh Congress Committee are only eligible to become MLAs of Uttranchal and can form the government which represents INC in the assembly. They in all are 34 such depertments. They all hold good enough importance to be a part of wikipedia because u can contest for MLA or MP or another post if and only if you are a member of the committees of ur respective state from INC.
- If u have any further question, feel free to ask me. I m here to help! Yasht101 07:37, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
PS: I m really sorry if i sounded rude to u. I m badly frustrated cuz of on going board exams of mine and then u came up with CSD. I m sufffering from kind of anxiety n stress combined.

- An idea:
- There is a programme on wikipedia, Adopt-a-user. Here, u can select any one who can help u out on wikipedia. U just have to leave a message on their talk page asking adoption and the user will help and guide u in becomming a better editor. Even i adopt users. I can help u out in wikipedia. If you'd like, I'll b happy to adopt u. Take a look at my contribution history to get an idea of the sort of areas I normally operate in; if you think I'd be able to help you, drop me a line on my talkpage.
- You're under no obligation to accept; if you don't think I'd be the right adopter for you u can go for someone else. Awaiting your reply.

[edit] Guild of Copy Editors March 2012 backlog elimination drive
Greetings from the Guild of Copy Editors March 2012 Backlog elimination drive! This is the most successful drive we have had for quite a while. Here is your end-of-drive wrap-up newsletter. Participation Of the 70 people who signed up for this drive, 40 copy-edited at least one article. Thanks to all who participated! Special acknowledgement goes out to Lfstevens, who did over 200 articles, most of them in the last third of the drive, and topped all three leaderboard categories. You're a superstar! Stfg and others have been pre-checking the articles for quality and conformance to Wikipedia guidelines; some have been nominated for deletion or had some preliminary clean-up done to help make the copy-edit process more fun and appealing. Thanks to all who helped get those nasty last few articles out of the target months. Progress report During this drive we were successful in eliminating our target months—October, November, and December 2010—from the queue, and have now eliminated all the 2010 articles from our list. We were able to complete 500 articles this month! End-of-drive results and barnstar information can be found here. When working on the backlog, please keep in mind that there are options other than copy-editing available; some articles may be candidates for deletion, or may not be suitable for copy-editing at this time for other reasons. The {{GOCEreviewed}} tag can be placed on any article you find to be totally uneditable, and you can nominate for deletion any that you discover to be copyright violations or completely unintelligible. If you need help deciding what to do, please contact any of the coordinators. Thank you for participating in the March 2012 drive! All contributions are appreciated. Our next copy-edit drive will be in May.

GOCE July 2012 Copy Edit Drive
[edit]Invitation from the Guild of Copy Editors
The Guild of Copy Editors invites you to participate in their July 2012 Backlog elimination drive, a month-long effort to reduce the size of the copy edit backlog. The drive begins on July 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on July 31 at 23:59 (UTC). Our goals are to eliminate the articles tagged in April, May and June 2011 from the queue and to complete all requests placed before the end of June. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copy edits more than 4,000 words, and special awards will be given to the top 6 in the following categories: "Number of articles", "Number of words", "Number of articles of over 5,000 words", "Number of articles tagged in April–June 2011", and "Longest article". We hope to see you there! – Your drive coordinators: Dank, Diannaa and Stfg. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

Hello!
[edit]Hey! :-)
My name is Noopur. I edit English Wikipedia and I work with the Wikimedia Foundation. I will be visiting Hyderabad soon and was pleasantly surprised to see that there are more than 20 active editors in Hyderabad! I thought it would be really nice to get together and meet you once. I was hoping to discuss some issues on WP:India and to know what topics you edit on. Also, have you met other Wikipedians before? It would be a great inspiration to meet a long term Wikipedian :-)
Please reply on my talk page or you can e-mail me at nraval@wikimedia.org Noopur28 (talk) 08:06, 29 June 2012 (UTC)

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged 2013 Hyderabad Bomb Blasts for deletion, because it appears to duplicate an existing Wikipedia article, [[:{{{article}}}]].
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks, GAtechnical (talk) 16:02, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 4
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Mahindra École Centrale, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page JNTU (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.

Motto of the Day Help Request April 2014
[edit]→ Wheel the wild dance,
While lightnings glance,
And thunders rattle loud;
And call the brave
To bloody grave,
To sleep without a shroud.
Motto of the Day (WP:MOTD) is in a state of emergency and really needs your help! There are not enough editors who are reviewing or nominating mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review, and this probably means that you will notice a red link or “This space for rent” as our mottos for the next weeks and months.
Please take a moment to review the nominations and nominate your own new mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review and Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/'Specials. Any help would be appreciated! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 09:13, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
- This message has been sent by pjoef on behalf of Motto of the Day to all editors of the English Wikipedia who are showing MOTD's templates on their pages, and to all the participants to MOTD: (page, template, and category).

New deal for page patrollers
[edit]Hi Chitransh Gaurav,
In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.
Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.
Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:29, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

Stop threatening other users
[edit]First of all, you are NOT a certified member of Wikipedia and you have no right to threaten other users of Wikipedia. Frequently visited pages needs to be updated with the latest information. The page NIT Jaipur has many outdated and non-cited articles. Other NIT pages are outdated too. Also, you are NOT the certified member of the NIT Jaipur page. However, you can edit it with the latest information like rankings and citations.--Tigerson1995 (talk) 18:38, 19 April 2017 (UTC)
Tigerson1995, I just posted the five pillars that wikipedia relies on, you are encouraged to make your edits as conformable as much as possible. If you want to make constructive changes, post them on the talk page and let us discuss, blanking them out is not the right way to proceed. I have gone through your changes and have assimilated them to the extent possible into the page. And as you can see on your talk page, you should know who is at fault. Thanks and Regards.
