Thanks. Now, much more than 5x. The tortoise img posted by you on Redtiger's page prompted me to write this article. I hope it goes through the DYK process smoothly. --Nvvchar. 16:20, 7 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. Can you offer your opinion on which photo is more appropriate for the Infobox in the Scott Allie article in this discussion? You don't need to know anything about Allie; I'm contacting you because you've worked on Featured Pictures. I tried contacting lots of editors who work on comics-related articles, but every time I do so, we wind up with the sentiments split down the middle, and no clear consensus. I'm thinking perhaps that people who work on matters dealing with photography might be able to offer viewpoints that yield a consensus. Thank you. Nightscream (talk) 15:33, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, From what you have said on your own page perhaps you would rather not get another message but your work on the Rani's article has improved it, especially the new statue picture with the Rani and her son. Since it is in Commons it will be easy to include it in WP articles in other languages.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 03:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It has become much better since the version of September 2012; it needs some work by an editor able to consult the most relevant books. However the account by Allen Copsey includes information about the different views of their authors and Michael Edwardes based his book Red Year on both British and Indian sources unlike the earlier British writers on the subject.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 22:56, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, Good work improving Dhag. Can you create a page for the best actress winner Usha Jadhav? I barely know anything about her. It's a shame wikipedia is not covering her.--Anoopkn (talk) 12:01, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
On 28 March 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Saptashrungi, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that there are figures of many gods as well as, unusually, a tortoise(pictured), on the steps to the Saptashrungi temple, built in 1710 AD? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Saptashrungi. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.
if it was U who reviewed Mughal-e-Azam for making it GA, I think u missed one thing: this source [1] which is used over 20 times in the article has the original source in the archive slot instead of the archived version. if u don't understand me, pls see any past revisions of the article (preferably post-GA version).

Hm. I've just read your collapsed box above. I hope that the query above is (a) suitably brief and (b) 21st- rather than 16th-century in style. <g> Chin up! - Sitush (talk) 18:35, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No problem... i don't mind answering this one. I think they both refer to same names... just variations in pronunciation as well as spelling both in English/Indian language. If you see Help:IPA for Hindi and Urdu, there are small variations in "n", "ɳ" and "ŋ" and also "d̪", "d̪ʱ", "ɖ" and "ɖʱ". Our word over here hence has many combinations and permutations. We have an article on Karishma Randhawa who i see is quite widely being referred to as Randeva also in many fan forums. But this one case shouldn't make it a rule. There are chances that they are actually different. Its mostly like Chaudhary, Chowdhary, Chaudhari, Chowdhury, etc. where spellings have mostly changed per region or simply personal choice. I don't think one can distinguish these also easily now. Another simpler example would be "Chauhan", which is the way it is used in Norther India, especially Rajasthan. (You must have come across it in your Rajput cleanups.) "Chavan" on the other hand is quite popular surname in Maharashtra. They probably are father and son (not respectively), but you notice that a person not so keen about language or just by habit may interchange these two. I don't think this has been of any good help... but i guess no one can be in this case. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 03:49, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You have hit the nail on the head there. Someone claiming to be Karishma Randhawa/Randeva has contacted me asking for that article to be renamed. I did some research and while Randeva is used quite a lot in the context of her, Randhawa is much, much more frequently used in English sources on Google. There might still be scope for sidestepping the basic requirements of WP:COMMONNAME (BLP has all sorts of implications, for example) but I really need to understand the motives for requesting the change. I have asked her if she is willing to explain those reasons to me, privately if necessary.
Your explanation has been of immense help, thanks. Aside from elaborating on the general issues of transliteration etc, it eliminates some basic reasons why she might want the title to be changed (eg: because she has legally changed her name). Great stuff, and much appreciated. - Sitush (talk) 16:57, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dharmadhyaksha, I want to change the sources (dead links) of the awards sections with links that work but the only link for BJFA awards I find is gomolo. I also don't know where it is a reliable source. Do you know whether it is a reliable source and can be used in the article? Tolly4bolly19:17, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hello! Gomolo is not considered as the best source. But it has been used many a times for verifying some facts. Depends on what kind of article it is. If its something like Pran's biography (published especially after his win of DPA) then i wouldn't consider that as the best source. There are chances that Wikipedia itself has been their source. You see, until now Yamla Jat was a 1945 film per our article. And thats why it appears so in Times of India's print edition of 13th April. In case the gomolo article is a list of winners of that year, we can have that as a reference for sure. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 04:52, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia editor Jorgath just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:
This article is generally very good. I made two notes 1) It may be slightly non-neutral, although it's not blatant, and 2) there's a bunch of red links. Otherwise, great work! - Jorgath (talk) (contribs) 16:46, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
Hello, Dharmadhyaksha. You have new messages at Talk:Amruta_Subhash. You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
All of it, against me and the other editor. You are implying bias on our part against editors from a particular location. Such wholly unfounded accusations are covered by the first section of WP:WIAPA. Leaky Caldron12:37, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
And it wasn't me who at first linked editors with their country wise editing preferences. (Also note that i did not imply you were biased against editors of a particular location. That's quite different than what i said.) §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 03:28, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I have made no association between editors and their country of origin. My single reference to nationality was "The entire subject is notable and you being in the huff because your article about the death of an Indian politician being deleted plays no part in the decision on the title of this subject." An editor had asked about "a recent politician in India whose funeral was one of the biggest in recent history, Mumbai a city of ten million and the state of Maharashtra (100 million) ground to a halt while the body lay in repose, yet Wikipedia considered that the event wasn't notable enough for a separate article. I was wondering why the death of Thatcher and the funeral is notable to have an article of its own? The article was created and the Afd decided that it be deleted. Oh a seven km long cortege isn't notable?" I answered that the manner in which the WP:GNG policy applied to the Thatcher article was appropriate. You said "Well.... your dear friend Leaky Caldron has already made it sufficiently clear above that the inflow of India-related editors is because of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Death of Bal Thackeray. By saying it again and again are your propaganda techniques based on Big Lie? And is it that you don't wish India-related editors or any non-Britain-related editors to voice their opinion here?" That is a clear accusation of nationality-based bias. I suggest you examine your inaccurate, fact twisting denial above and admit that you have made wholly unsubstantiated and bad faith claims. Leaky Caldron10:52, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I never said that you associated editors with countries. I have said, "it wasn't me who at first linked editors with their country". §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 11:15, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
So what does "Well.... your dear friend Leaky Caldron has already made it sufficiently clear above that the inflow of India-related editors is because of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Death of Bal Thackeray.". Liar. Leaky Caldron11:47, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Read it again, he said I never said that you associated editors with countries. I have said, "it wasn't me who at first linked editors with their country".--sarvajna (talk) 12:24, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not interested in YOUR interpretation. I want him to explain the discrepancy between his denial and the statement that I have copied above. I suggest you keep out of it. Leaky Caldron12:28, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
LC, Sarvajna is right in highlighting the key points of my statements. I still stand by my statement that "it wasn't me who at first linked editors with their country". §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 14:42, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nor was it me. Your dishonest misrepresentation of your own statement, which I have highlighted above, is reprehensible. You are an editor to avoid. I am minded to refer your behaviour for Admin. consideration and will sleep on it. I suggest you reflect on your words and clarify exactly who you are aiming your false accusation at. Leaky Caldron15:44, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Well calling the comment of other editors as crap and threatening me by saying I suggest you keep out of it is all you have got? I am sure you can do better. Even a child can see that you are the first person to make comments about nationality(I am not saying that there anything wrong with your comment) The entire subject is notable and you being in the huff because your article about the death of an Indian politician being deleted plays no part in the decision on the title of this subject. Leaky Caldron 15:01, 19 April 2013 (UTC)(emphasis added) and Dharmadhyaksha just stated what you said also it would be dishonest to miss the comments that were made by other editors before Dharmadhyaksha's comment. An editor said I did not explicitly say so above. Note that User:Yogesh Khandke appears to have been canvassing opinion, including requesting a fellow editor AfD this article to which DD replied Note the dates. That discussion was a few days before the day this move was requested. If deletion was intentions, which logically can not be achieved with a move request, a move request would never have been made. Putting such irrelevant notes is playing foul..There was again a comment from the other editor It strikes me as odd the amount of people who are coming here to !vote whose main interest is in Indian subjects(emphasis added) to which DD replied Well.... your dear friend Leaky Caldron has already made it sufficiently clear above that the inflow of India-related editors is because of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Death of Bal Thackeray. By saying it again and again are your propaganda techniques based on Big Lie? And is it that you don't wish India-related editors or any non-Britain-related editors to voice their opinion here?. I hope you have read those comments and you deliberately did not miss them. --sarvajna (talk) 17:03, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I made an accurate comment about the nationality of a dead Indian politician who's article was deleted. That in no way amounts to making a reference about the nationality of particular editors or the "inflow of India-related editors" to the Thatcher article. I have made no such inference, insinuation or statement. You've picked on the wrong editor to make false claims of racist behaviour I'm afraid. Again, I suggest YOU keep out of it since my dispute is with the talk page user and your constant interference is as annoying as it is unhelpful. Leaky Caldron17:17, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict)If you feel that i should be avoided then please do that. I am not overly delighted to converse with you either. Sarvajna; thanks; has now put down all points in front of you. If you still fail to comprehend any substance from them, i don't think me talking more on it will help you. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 17:22, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You have completely failed to justify this remark: "Well.... your dear friend Leaky Caldron has already made it sufficiently clear above that the inflow of India-related editors is because of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Death of Bal Thackeray.". Unfortunately the discussion about moving the Thatcher article has been closed otherwise I would have struck your disgraceful remark using (Personal attack removed). Your friend is as bad as you, dishonest and evasive. Leaky Caldron17:34, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
What the hell is racist about that? Your failure to comprehend simple statements has left me nothing much to say here. Dishonest, crap,evasive. Grand show of civility --sarvajna (talk) 17:44, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Well, you got it wrong about Bal Thackeray, you got it wrong about whether the Thatcher article was needed and you got it wrong about renaming it so making wrong assertions about editors with whom you disagree is hardly a surprise I suppose. Leaky Caldron18:25, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You seem to have inserted an infobox for Don Bosco High School, Matunga.
I think the name has been changed from Don Bosco High School, Matunga to Cardinal Gracias High School in the infobox.
Any special reason for changing the name in the infobox?
I must say that I am very disappointed by your GAR which indicates that you have no desire to work with the article writer but against him. I can't help but think you're doing this out of spite for what this editor has said to Gleek Vampire which is very childish indeed. It seems to me you saw Prashant's attack on Gleek's work so you've decided to return the attack on his out of spite, the timing is clearly not a coincidence and I see you've also put 7 Khoon Maaf up for GAR. I'm sick and tired of the ill feeling between you all. You've let the Indian cinema work group down, all of you by your refusal to work together to improve things and self support each other. You could have quite easily mentioned the points for improvement on the talk page without taking it to GAR.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld16:01, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I also agree, it is quite tiring. That was not my fault that Gleek passed that GA. I don't know. If you can reasses then, make a particular Criteria for Reviewers and tell them that only experienced editors should grab articles to review. It was not my fault that he chose to review my article. He also passed Freida Pinto, I'm sure that article is also, was easily passed but, why you didn't reassessed that one. Why not Imran Khan? Its is tiring....i worked day and night on the article. I don't want to listen any excuse. Comments on Imran Khan, not reassesment. But, on my article you reassesed all, why not you came on talk page. This shows your biasness and hypocrisy. No. Please delete all reassesments for god sake.Prashanttalk17:42, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict)Oh please... i don't follow these guys talk pages at all. I am sincerely of the opinion that GA quality of this project is degrading day by day. 2 weeks back i posted similar comments on Imran Khan (actor)'s talk page post its GA. After Kareena Kapoor became FA, some non-INCINE editors posted a huge list of changes on it's talk page. The article did not even mention that she has a wax statue; countable few Bollywood people fall in that class and our "FA" didn't mention it. I don't care who nominates these articles and who reviews it. I don't care if they team up together and clear each other's articles or team up against each others and trash it. And i also don't consider my comments as something against the project but more inclining to the betterment of it. If you think my points in GAR are wrong, you may point them out there and i am always open to consider your counter opinions. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 17:33, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Who are you to consider our question. I'm not interested in any GAR. This shows your hypocrisy and I know who or how many told you do this. If you posted comments on IMRan Then why not on their talk page? Because you want to show your supremacy. You biased user, smell the coffee and look at the mirror. If you can't work on any Indian article , you don't have any right to do this. First, you should work on a stub, then you would know what hard work means.

(edit conflict)@Blofeld and Prashant: I don't like using templated warning related to Wikipedia:No personal attacks and thats why i won't be adding those on your talk pages. Also, you two, and probably others who plan to come charging on my talk page, should comment only on the content of the articles. No personal attacks, on me or on nominator or on reviewer are going to be helpful here. GAR stays open for many users to comment on.
