References

Yes, I know reflist in talk page is not a common practice. But, is it against Wikipedia's rule? It is needed here.

How references work

Simple references

These require two parts;

a)
Chzz is 98 years old.<ref> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. </ref>

He likes tea. <ref> [http://www.nicecupofteaandasitdown.com Tea website] </ref>
b) A section called "References" with the special code "{{reflist}}";
== References ==

{{reflist}}

(an existing article is likely to already have one of these sections)

To see the result of that, please look at user:chzz/demo/simpleref. Edit it, and check the code; perhaps make a test page of your own, such as user:Titodutta/reftest and try it out.

Named references

Chzz was born in 1837. <ref name=MyBook>
"The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. 
</ref> 

Chzz lives in Footown.<ref name=MyBook/>

Note that the second usage has a / (and no closing ref tag). This needs a reference section as above; please see user:chzz/demo/namedref to see the result.

Citation templates

You can put anything you like between <ref> and </ref>, but using citation templates makes for a neat, consistent look;

Chzz has 37 Olympic medals. <ref> {{Citation
 | last = Smith
 | first = John
 | title = Olympic medal winners of the 20th century
 | publication-date = 2001
 | publisher = [[Cambridge University Press]]
 | page = 125
 | isbn = 0-521-37169-4
}}
</ref>

Please see user:chzz/demo/citeref to see the result.

For more help and tips on that subject, see user:chzz/help/refs.

Help

Sure! I may be busy for the next few days, but by the weekend I'll be glad to help! WhisperToMe (talk) 03:00, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! --Tito Dutta (Send me a message) 03:13, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Thank you Tito! I am indeed a little bit hungry, will make good use of the cake. And yeah, Kolkata FARC is still going on, and have to save it.--Dwaipayan (talk) 06:22, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Map

To have a map of Garfa made, go to the talk page of the author of the Dharmatala map image: Commons:User_talk:Jayantanth - Ask the user if he can make a map of Garfa

Barnstar

Thanks for the barnstar!

I think what they meant was that for it to be added to be "common/frequently used" barnstar list, it needs consensus, but anyone can create his or her own barnstar for a particular purpose

Hi. When you recently edited Google Help Forums, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Blogger (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) 10:50, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, yes, you are correct, dear bot, it is wrong. Since we often use the term Blogger for Google's Blog service, I did not think of checking the page. I have corrected it. --Tito Dutta (Send me a message) 10:55, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Article requests

Hi, Tito! On the Bengali Wikipedia, do you do article requests? There are some subjects that I would like to see started in Bengali that I listed at bn:আলাপ:প্রধান_পাতা#Article_requests - So if you are interested, please take a look! Thanks WhisperToMe (talk) 11:25, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In Bengali Wikipedia I do not do article requests (or are you asking if I participate in Bengali Wiki? No, I don't edit articles there).
I am not very sure if they translate En articles manually (I mean word by word) or by any translator. I have tried to translate one of your article using Google Translator of English>>Bengali (which is in alpha stage).. but, the translation see here was not very helpful. I have seen user Naveenpf has told you: If you want the bot to do the job please sign up at [1] I am not very sure what does he mean by bot job. Do you know? --Tito Dutta (Send me a message) 11:47, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure what he means, but I'll take a look at the page. Anyway, even if you do not edit the Bengali Wikipedia, thank you for your help! WhisperToMe (talk) 11:57, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • If no one else responds there, please fell free to alert me again, If you really need, I'll try to create at least one of your three articles in Bengali Wikipedia. I have already checked three articles, I think I'll be comfortable to translate this Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport article. Let me know if you need.
  • If they use any translator or bot (as Naveenpf has mentioned), the work will be easier, I think!
  • Also let me know if you think I can contribute anywhere else (preferably in Wikipedia English) --Tito Dutta (Send me a message) 12:11, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I took a look at meta:WikiConference_India_2011/Wiki_Outreach#Misc - It seems to be a bot for adding welcome templates - It doesn't seem to be a translation bot. If you want to make a short stub on Detroit Airport in Bengali, that would be nice :) - The Detroit area has a Bengal origin population WhisperToMe (talk) 13:52, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much, Tito! WhisperToMe (talk) 21:15, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I have followed. --Tito Dutta (Send me a message) 13:39, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mr. Dutta,

Sorry for delayed response. So, is there a verdict? What has been decided about my links? Can I add a few more links in appropriate places? I especially think my pages "tones," "notations," "embellishment" and "performance" are vital for any understanding of hindustani classical music and should be added to Wikipedia. Please let me know.
