Speedy deletion of Harindranath Chattopadhyaya

A tag has been placed on Harindranath Chattopadhyaya requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Flewis^(talk) 05:58, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Creating inappropriate articles

You created an article called Crying Uncle. It looks like a dictionary definition, because it is very short and only describes its meaning. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a dictionary, and has been moved to ['crying uncle' in Wiktionary], a free online dictionary which works similarly to Wikipedia. Thank you. - Æåm Fætsøn (talk) 06:38, 25 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

October 2008

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Hashimoto's thyroiditis. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Please do not vandalise pages with spam. Hashimoto's thyroiditis is a thyroid autoimmune disease, not a mental disorder and if you thought adding an unhelpful spam link there was funny, it was removed and the next time you do this, you willbe blocked.

I've added the link again as it does not look like spam to me: I cannot verify the relevance of the source as I don't have access to it, but as it's a peer reviewed journal it meets the reliable source guidelines. —Snigbrook 17:40, 27 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Talking to users with talk pages

Hi RNAidu, you posted a talk comment on my user page. You are supposed to only post comments on talk pages, and if you found my name in an edit history, click 'Talk' which is in the brackets beside the user name, then post it. If you found my name in a talk page, click 'fætsøn' in my signature (try it!) ÆÅM «(fætsøn!) . And for other users, click (talk) if they don't have a signature and if they do have a signature, search for the link that shows "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:username" (hover your mouse over to find it).

If you're at a user's page, post a comment by clicking the 'discussion' tab at the top, next to the 'user page' tab, then post!

Remember that you always post comments in talk pages and nowhere else in Wikipedia! By the way, your comment was moved to my talk page. Again, happy editing and please stick to the rules! - ÆÅM «(fætsøn!) 09:09, 28 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Schizophrenia edit

Hi Ram, and a big welcome to Wikipedia! Nice to see an editor from Chennai! My sister and her family live in Tamil Nadu, I hope to go visit her next year. I noticed an edit you did on schizophrenia, which added three links to the section about suicide risk. Since this passage was already well sourced, I did not see the need for these links. Could you maybe write something on Talk:Schizophrenia on why the article will benifit from this addition? Also, references should be formatted according to the style in the rest of the article. Perhaps WP:CITE will be a useful read. If you need any help with formatting sources, or anything else, just ask on my talk page. /skagedal^... 11:16, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NOTE

In reply to your question re notability -- there is no easy answer. You need to read and understand WP:BIO, especially WP:PROF/WP:CREATIVE for people notable as academics or writers/artists, respectively, and be prepared to present evidence that the subject does satisfy these guidelines. There is always room for debate -- don't worry, your articles won't just be nuked, altough they may be tagged and discussed, and pending the outcome of the discussion perhaps merged elsewhere or even deleted. --dab (𒁳) 08:16, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You seem to have asked the same question of several people.

I note this one edit of yours to the article on schizophrenia. This edit consists of your addition of references to three articles, their authors and titles being:

A[shoka] J[ahnavi] Prasad, "Attempted suicide in hospitalised schizophrenics".
A[shoka] J[ahnavi] Prasad and P. Kellner, "Suicidal behaviour in schizophrenic day patients".
Prasad, Ashoka Jahnavi, and Nirmal Kumar, "Suicidal behavior in hospitalized schizophrenics".

They share an author, Ashoka Jahnavi Prasad. This is a familiar name in the English-language Wikipedia. An article on him, pointing out his membership of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, has been amply discussed at:

It has been very clearly established that the English-language Wikipedia cannot include an article on this person, under whatever name. If you disagree with this conclusion, please take the matter to Wikipedia:Deletion review.

If you have another person in mind, that person can be judged on his or her merits.

In the meantime, you may wish to add evidence to the articles that you have already created. (For example, you don't present any evidence for what you've written in an article you created and that I subsequently retitled The Leader (Allahabad newspaper).) -- Hoary (talk) 12:57, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
