Hello Qmwne235, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
Hi, to join the WikiProject Jainism just put your name down on the list of contributors and start helping! Thats it haha. As for the Userbox template, I haven't made it yet. I made one earlier but it got deleted/taken down somehow. - Zhang Guo Lao19:07, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
However before putting disputed neutrality tag please discuss as to why you are disputing the neutrality on the talk pages.
Please discuss where cleanup is required.
Please discuss why it has been put as Class B Article and not Class A as put by me.
For any changes please discuss on talk pages first or else it would be considered as POV and reverted back. I would appreciate your contributions a lot. Looking forwarding to constructive contribution to ensure that this article(in fact all jainism articles) is rated as featured article.--Anish Shah05:22, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I rated it down to B-class because it does not match the Wikipedia:WikiProject Jainism/Assessment standards for A-class articles. I realize that not all WikiProjects add Good Article status to the B-A-FA continuum, it is also important to remember that a poorly written page with many grammatical errors and clear, or even disputed bias cannot be A-class. I also added a POV tag because it seems to hold Jainism above other religions in its principles, saying that it is the only religion which does a certain thing, when that is not necessarily true (though technically I could delete such claims under WP:V, I would not due to the fact that some of these may be nominally true). I will copy this down on my talk page for record-keeping purposes. --queso man00:55, 24 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I do not agree with you and your way of functioning. Either you do some constructive contribution and not be a member of Jainism Wikipedia project for name sake. I said point out the cases which require the necessary changes and we will make the necessary changes. As the name of article suggests it provides the Karmic theory from jainism point of view. I have taken all the sources from respected authors who have researched jainism deeply. So kindly do not impose your POV on others. If you see the tag, it requires "more specific message" and "discussion on talk pages". If that is not forthcoming I will have to revert back. However i am open to making substantial changes wherever required. I am copying this on the talk pages of Karma in Jainism so that it stays on record. I am inviting improvements from you and other members of this project. If there are no contributions then I will rate the Article as per the wiki guidelines. Thanks--Anish Shah04:42, 24 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but not agreeing with me is not a good nor a valid reason to change something. The WikiProject Assessment guidelines clearly show that an A-class article must meet some guidelines when it comes to referencing, NPOV, and grammar. It is debatable whether an A-class article must be better than a Good Article, but in this WikiProject, GA status is necessary before promotion to A-class. I suggest you study these guidleines. Also, just because something is above Jainism, it doesn't have to be written from a Jain point of view. All Wikipedia articles MUST be written from an objective viewpoint. Just because Dr. Jaini is a respected author, the source is not automatically unbiased. Even Acharya Sushilkumar is biased, no matter how respected he is. The constant referencing of biased sources (the Tattvartha Sutra being one of the few ones that is not used in a negative way) is one of the main shortcomings of the article. Wikipedia articles are not designed to support their subject; they must instead simply shed light on the topic. As for any lack of constructive edits about Jainism I have made, I am quite an old-timer on this WikiProject as the second person to join. By looking at my contributions and articles I have edited or created on Jainism, it is quite clear that I have not added my name to the Jainism WikiProject just for the status. --queso man03:22, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have made some changes, mostly grammatical, as I see fit. Please look this over and add your opinion on the talk page or change it as you like, in which case I will look over your edits and see what we can compromise on. I also moved the tag for bias to a specific section where the bias seems to be concentrated. I have also written something on the talk page, mostly about reasons why the WikiProject has been declining in some ways, and why it is not as good as it should be, which you inquired about. There are also some proposals on how to improve the article.Σ --queso man19:49, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
This is a form message being sent to all WikiProject Disambiguation participants. I may have found your page based on your contributions or your link repair user box on your user page. If you are not a member, please consider including your name on the project page. I recently left a proposed banner idea on the WikiProject Disambiguation talk page and I would appreciate any input you could provide. Before it can be approved or denied, I would prefer a lot of feedback from multiple participants in the project. So if you have the time please join in the discussion to help improve the WikiProject. Keep up the good work in link repair and thanks for your time. Nehrams202023:12, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I've been attempting to overview and tidy up the geography cats which involve the places where people live. From the top level down to local neighbourhoods. There has been some overlapping and various mis-routings. It's been interesting looking at it all. However, there appear to be two useful ways of doing it - by region, and by size. And these can operate side by side quite usefully. The by region isn't a problem. But the by size has become difficult because User:Hmains wishes to use the term settlements to cover all sizes of communities, and has altered dictionary definitions [1] to fit his own understanding of the term -
[2]. Community appears to be the term used most often to describe the places where people live, regardless of size. This is the definition of community - [3]. I did some sorting, placing the cat Human communities under Human geography. Human communities splitting into Urban geography and Rural geography. And those splitting into appropriate sized communities - cities, districts, neighbourhoods, villages, settlements, etc. Hmains has reverted much of my work, and insists on settlements being the term we should use - basing it on this decision, which was a declined proposal to rename Settlements by region to Populated places by region. What do you think? Is settlement an acceptable term for covering human communities ranging from well established cities down to refuge camps. Is Human community a viable alternative? Are there other choices (apart from populated places of course!)? I have started a discussion here and [4], with the above wording, but no response as yet. Am I doing the right thing? SilkTork19:13, 24 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I noticed that you put a Prod tag on this article, and then listed it in Articles for Deletion. AfD and Proposed Deletion are two different deletion methods, you have accidentally combined the two. To delete an article using Proposed Deletion, you simply put the tag on the article, as you have already done, and then 5 days later if no one objects the article is deleted. There is no need to list it in the Articles for Deletion page. --Xyzzyplugh01:05, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thats awesome, you're the first person who has come to me about this! :)) I will of course do the same, if there is any particular article you want me to work on, let me know, otherwise I'll make my own choice. Thanks again! :) - Francis Tyers·23:29, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I assessed these articles as A-class not to imply that they were better than GA-class, but to distinguish them as better than the B-class articles. I've seen discussion elsewhere on different projects to indicate that GA-class doesn't strictly come between B-class and A-class. Many people see GA-class as something separate from the stub-start-B-A-FA sequence. Confusing, I know, but that was the way I was handling it. As for what A-class means. WikiProject Middle-earth doesn't have formal A-class a assessment system. I know some projects do, but we don't, yet! Would you like to suggest setting one up over at the WikiProject talk page? Carcharoth23:51, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I think all you'd have to do is rewrite that Assessments page to fit suitable Middle-earth criteria, after discussing at the WikiProject. The WikiProject is not very active at the moment, but it is something that needs doing. If you find the time, please start a discussion on it. Carcharoth21:52, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Area of a disk
You recently made a horrible edit to Area of a disk using AWB, with the edit summary "bad link repair". The edit was not a mere link repair, but made numerous changes throughout the article that contravene our explicit conventions in mathematics editing. For example, we absolutely do not replace "<sup>2</sup>" with "²". (It is too small to read, and it is inconsistent will all our other superscripts including variables and other digits.) And AWB was specifically told not to Unicodify mathematics characters. Please do not repeat this travesty with other mathematics articles. Thanks. --KSmrqT16:41, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Ummmm...sorry about that. I'm still learning the ropes with AWB, and it didn't say anything about that on the Home page or the User Manual, or at least that I saw. Can you tell me what I should've done instead? Also, how do I revert the edits I made to all the other mathematics articles I edited with AWB? Thanks, --Qmwne235 16:55, 3 November 2007 (UTC) (copied from KSmrq's talk page)
I looked through my contributions, and it seems that except for one other edit (Pi, which was reverted with a description saying that unicodifying is ok, but removing links was questionable), most of the errors I made on mathematics-related articles were just in the edit summary. Since the amount of edit summaries under AWB is extremely limited, what should I have chosen? By the way, it may be a good idea to archive this talk page. --Qmwne235 17:21, 3 November 2007 (UTC) (once again, copied from KSmrq's talk page)
(It's OK to just reply here; I'll see it.)
This problem with AWB was dealt with in October of 2006. Wikipedia being what it is, the code fix and the caution may have been "unfixed" by someone since then. I have posted a note on the AWB talk page so folks like you don't stumble into this and folks like me needn't constantly undo the article changes. --KSmrqT18:22, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Adoption
Hey, Qmwne235, I saw your offer for adoption on my userpage. I do believe that you can help me; therefore, I've decided to accept your offer and I will be an adoptee of yours.

You are f---ing b------ and deserve to be put in a mental home for editing wikipedia! - User:Shinjithetramengine (this signature added by Qmwne235)
I have noticed your threat to get an administrator to suspend one's account if he removes Alvis Brooks from the list of notable people from Shelby, Mississippi. To clarify what "notable" means, it means that there must be reliable third-party sources with which to verify the information as per WP:N. A quick Google search of "Alvis Brooks Mississippi" will yield only seven results, none of which are useful. It is probable that Mr. Brooks was a kind farm mechanic who touched many lives and we take your word for it, but I and many others sincerely do not believe he belongs on a list of notable people. As for the threats to get a user banned, not only are threats highly discouraged, but in this case, it wouldn't work. I'm somewhat familiar with criteria for banning, and removing a non-notable person from a list of notable people isn't one of them. In fact, it takes quite a bit to ban a person, even if they did do something wrong (which I didn't). I suggest that, if any of your changes are reverted without clear signs of vandalism, you ask the reverter why or post a message on the talk page of the article. Thanks! --Qmwne23523:14, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I would just like to mention something about the one to whom the threat was made. Nyttend, the first reverter, is an administrator, and, as such, his account cannot be suspended by another administrator unless he is stripped of his power, which is unlikely to happen soon. --Qmwne23523:18, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Dear Sir,
Your loutish message to me was not inferential to my small addition to Shelby, Mississippi. I will be mirthful to overlook it as an admirable person I am. For one I appreciate your desire to keep people informed on only gratifying information about this small delta town. I am delighted to inform you that this extravagant man is in the local history books. I am sure not many people will be doing research on this town. I have lived here for forty-five years. I can assume you have never been here? There is of course nothing to visit here unless you have relatives or want to see the three last old blues juke joints that still sentiment here.
By the way dear sir,
An other person has posted Mr. Brooks name up and it wasn't me. I went to standpoint his name back up and someone else has posted it, rather it was a local or some Admin that allowed it I don't know. I also wasn't aware of the invention the person posted about Mr. Brooks. If this fact is true I have learned something new about this man. I am sure you will waste your God-sent time researching it for me.
You are welcome to reference these history books if you would like to. If the statement is not referenced, it can be deleted as per WP:N. Keep in mind I will be checking to make sure these books exist. I'll wait about two days for a reference; if there is none at that time, I will delete it. Also, the other editor, very possibly you under your IP address despite your denial, stated that Mr. Brooks invented the KT socket wrench. A quick google search will prove that the KT socket wrench also does not exist. --Qmwne23504:07, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Dear Sir or Ma'am,
Check the IP address I assure you it wasn't me. I think the IP address is from the state of Penn.from my research. If he did invent this then I was unaware of it. I do however want to question the person who did put this up. I am very interested in finding out if it is truth. Why are you so loving of a town that I am sure you have never visited? Well enjoy wasting your time on such rubbish. If you have seen this town in "real life" I am sure you would stop wasting your hard spent time on it. If it gets deleted then thats no worries of mine. Since you are so loving of the south, why don't you do a search of Clarksdale, Mississippi? I know of three people on there that are not noteable people. Trust me, do your little google search on all the red ones. I know two of them in real life. Do you see me deleting their names thought? I have contributed to much to this server.
Much Thanks to A Friend,
M.D. Lawes
I find it oddly suspicious that a user from Pennsylvania would take the time to edit only the Shelby, Mississippi article, and then only to add in the name of Mr. Brooks. I am not quite loving of Shelby, although I'm sure it's a nice place, but I find that sometimes, untrue statements that end up on Wikipedia can potentially cause harm to someone, and although this is not likely to hurt anyone as far as I know, I consider it important to delete it if it isn't true. Of course, you still have the opportunity to reference it. Keep in mind I will be deleting any mention of Alvis Brooks tomorrow if there is no reference to the statement, but any time after that you or anyone else can add it again if you do find a good reference. As a response to your comments on Clarksdale, Mississippi, a Google search shows that all of the red-linked names are of people who exist (a few are portrait artists, one has a page on the IMDB). Anyone can delete them if they want to, but I won't because I feel that because there is proof of their existence, there's no need to delete them. --Qmwne23516:54, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough my friend, but you should have deleted it today.
The book he is mentioned in is not online so sadly I can't post it.It is only in the local library. I have the name, author, and page number.
For your information that Ip Address is from Penn. I was able to research it and if you find it odd that sommeone did if from there then I inturn find it odd your watching Shelby, MS like a hawk from your area.
I hope to talk to this person from Penn. I am unaware of what they posted.
P.S. Cagle "Small Time" Collins shows no google hits. Where did you find any at? You must not have done your research Sir or Ma'am
Futher more please stop messaging me I haven't the time to debate over a truly sad matter. I have to many clients to help on the weekdays.
Thanks
M.D. Lawes
Hello, Mr. Robert Johnston, it seems that you have added the name of Alvis Brooks back to the article on Shelby, Mississippi at the advice of M.D. Lawes. Mr. Lawes and I have discussed this for some time and I told him that if he could not find a reference, printed or online, for this information, it would be deleted. Of course, I would make sure the reference exists. I haven't found a single relevant Google hit for Alvis Brooks, nor have I found one for the KT socket wrench, the tool he supposedly invented. Mr. Brooks, if he is real, may be well-known locally, but if he is not notable on a larger scale, such that an unbiased third-party source cannot be found about him, then any information about him will most likely be deleted. Now, you edited his name back in and described him as the brother of Mel Brooks. If you are talking about the famous actor and comedian, the only notable Mel Brooks, I'm afraid that you're mistaken. Mel Brooks had three brothers named Bernard, Leonard, and Irving.[5][6]Also, neither being related to a notable person nor being a war veteran makes a person notable; if either did, we would have thousands of articles on virtually unknown people. For now, I'll assume that you have added his name out of genuine interest to improve Wikipedia, but I have deleted the mention of Alvis Brooks in the article for now. --Qmwne23517:11, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I am seeking help to deal with the disruptive behavior of User:IAF on the pages of Indian religions. He is intent on proving that Jainism is a derivative of Vedic religion and ignoring all the proofs and multitude of references of western and Indian scholars that I have provided. He is indulging in edit warring and ignoring the antiquity and contributions of Jainism and Sramanas to the Indian Culture. Maximum, that he can turn up with is 2 or 3 websites as sources and fringe theorists like Stephen Knapp – who claims that all Greeks, Romans, Egyptians were Hindus and Taj mahal was a Hindu Temple. Thanks--Anish (talk) 11:11, 24 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I'm afraid I don't have the necessary knowledge to effectively deal with your conflict on Indian religions, but I did what I could and added my suggestions to Discussion with IAF. Please read them and see what you and Anish Shah can do. I think that the most important step in resolving this is to avoid assumptions of bad faith. I would suggest that you copy and paste sections from the article that are disputed onto the talk page and change the disputed parts as you see fit, then let Anish Shah do the same, and compromise using both of your ideas and others'. I'll try to fix the grammar, as that appears to be a recurring issue, and look it over to see if it's unbiased and well-referenced; I'll assume that both of you as well as others such as Legalese and Manish Modi will do the same and help refine it. Then it will be fit to edit in the actual article. You can contact me on my talk page if anything important happens.
As an explanation for why I'm posting this, I was called to arbritrate between you and Anish Shah in the discussion. This was copied-and-pasted virtually word for word from Anish Shah's talk page. --Qmwne23520:34, 24 December 2007 (UTC) (copied and pasted from IAF's talk page)[reply]
Thanks for your attempt for reconciliation which I already tried before many times.
I was hoping that you would add your bit, if you have some knowledge on Jainism.
Well, I tried, but I really don't know that much about the early history of Jainism that hasn't already been covered.
You have clubbed me at par with IAF. Maybe you have not read the talk pages properly. He has flatly refused for any consensus or compromise. I assumed that he wanted some consensus when he started talk on my talk page. But he is simply playing around. He has never claimed that he wants consensus. Its not that I was not in disagreement with other editors. But I have made many compromises when others were right. But this chap is simply pushing his POV.
I recognize that, but a sentence or two describing the theory his references propound wouldn't hurt, as long as they are well-referenced and avoid original research.
Maybe be you have not realized that I have given more than a dozen references for each and every point I made. Believe me, it is a painstaking work going thru all the books. He simply has one or two sources from websites and one source from googlebooks.
I've seen your large lists of references, but those generally promote the status quo of the article, which says that sramana and Vedic traditions were separate. His lack of sources does not prove him wrong, but he should have better sources. We can only add in the parts of his theory that he has sources to back up; if he had better sources, it might be possible to make a larger section describing these alternate theories.
He has no scruples in quoting Stephen Knapp, who is making preposterous claims that all ancient cultures like Egypt, Greeks etc. were Hindus. If Stephen knapp is admissible as a reference then I have ten dozen Jain orthodox sources that make many claims that may not be acceptable to scholars. But I am refraining from doing that.
Stephen Knapp does not claim that all those civilizations were Hindu; he claims that some of the features in their beliefs and art resemble those of Hindu art, which is possibly true. If IAF claims that they were Hindus, that would be original research.
He has a habit of alleging that I am using Manish Modis account. Then He claims I am using 2 accounts.
Well, that's a lack of assumption of good faith on his part. Even looking at your writing styles, I can tell that you and Manish Modi are two separate users. Still, there's no way to deal with that. --Qmwne23518:03, 25 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That was what you stated in the reply on my talk page. Sorry, but I really don't know what on EArth that means, since I have almost no idea of how to use HTML.Chimchar monferno (talk) 01:02, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Anekantavada has been promoted as a Good article. Your contributions have immensely helped improved this article. Thanks for all your help. I hope you will help me out to make this as a featured article. I also intend to work on other Jainism related articles and am counting on your expertise. Thanks! --Anish (talk) 19:52, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The article Anekantavada has been promoted as GA and now I intend to nominate it for FA status. However the promoter of article Redtigerxyz (talk·contribs) was unable to check all the references and has put a checkcite tag on the top of the article. This is a stumbling block for FA status. He has suggested that some one with good knowledge of Jainism review the article as to – “whatever written in the article is a fair interpretation of the philosophy of Anekantavada”. You find any concerns this may be corrected. Then you can leave a note to this effect on the talk pages of the article and then this tag can be removed. As you have a fairly good amount of knowledge of Jain philosophy, I seek your assistance to review it for any inconsistencies as per your understanding and then leave your comments. Thanks--Anish (talk) 14:26, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
