Since yor know a lot about Dholavira, you can contact User:Rama's Arrow. He improved the page a few days back, and added photos. In fact the article appeared in Did you know... section of the first page (where interesting facts from newly created articles are presented). Rama is also originally from Mumbai and Gujarat.

Hi, you may want to look at WP:NPOV and WP:V and see if your latest edits to Mahatma Gandhi adhere to that. Welcome!! --Gurubrahma 07:50, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your edits on Constitution of India

You had added the following text on the above article:


Caste and Religion In India. Though India is Democratic and Republic Country, Indian Parliament has enacted many Acts and Laws on caste based systems and openly support the Kumbh Mela for Hindus and Haj Piligrims for Muslims. There is no uniform civil code for Citizens. There are many judgements from Supreme Court which contradict the Constitution of India or Indian Parliament where as citizens support Parliament instead of Supreme Court and this is new type of Democracy and Republican where all most all citizens are interested in caste based system and Religion.
The Prime minister and President (all past and present also) openly support the Religion and Caste system.


I have removed this text because:
  • Acts and Laws on caste based systems - for example??
  • openly support the Kumbh Mela for Hindus and Haj Piligrims for Muslims, openly support the Religion - because India is a secular country, therefore, the government cannot favour one religion over the other.
  • The Prime minister and President (all past and present also) openly support the Religion and Caste system. - again, for example?? which PMs and Presidents?? what instances??
  • There are many judgements from Supreme Court which contradict the Constitution of India or Indian Parliament where as citizens support Parliament instead of Supreme Court - once again, examples are missing.
  • this is new type of Democracy and Republican where all most all citizens are interested in caste based system and Religion. - This is outright nonsense and in your point of view. I, as an Indian citizen, am not casteist, nor is anybody I know. And if you read the news, you may know how the Indian population is protesting against the government's policy of reservation for backward classes.
Please always remember to cite the sources of where you are getting your information.--May the Force be with you! Shreshth91($ |-| ŗ 3 $ |-| ţ |-|) 06:45, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Sources of Information. Uniform Civil Code, Different Marriage Act for Muslims, hindus, Shah Bano Case and Bank Naionalization Case, all these gives the information. On the website of Prime Minister of India and The President of India, we see every 15 days greeting on the occasions of Religion Days at he Cost of those who do not belive in Religion. Present President APJ Abdul Kalam is from Science Branch and has offered Chaddar for Ajmer and same was news for General Public at the cost of you and me who do not believe in Caste, etc., etc. Somnath temple is the Monumnet of Indian Caste System. MK Gandhi, Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel, KM Munshi and Dr. Rajendra Prasad were involved in the construction of Somnath Temple.
I leave for the readers for discussion. vkvora 16:03, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Caste. I saw your recent edits on Indian caste systems etc. Please see Other Backward Class. This has been expanded recently, though much more work needs to be done. Please see if you could help. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 07:06, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Somnath Temple. Hi Voraji - Kem chcho? I know that your edits are of good quality, but I request you to please understand that India and Mahatma Gandhi are Wikipedia:Featured article. There is a special way of writing them, as per WP:MOS. We cannot have sub-sections on Somnath in the middle, breaking the proper stream of writing.
Please study WP:MOS as well as WP:CITE. You've been doing very good work, and keep it up! Rama's Arrow 03:00, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Religion. That's as may be, but it's questionable as to whether a discussion of this ought to be in the article. (Added: See WP:NOT#Wikipedia is not a soapbox) TCC (talk) (contribs) 06:17, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Your information. By the way, I strongly discourage you from publishing your address, telephone number, and email address on your user page. It may draw unwelcome attention from data miners and so forth. If anyone wishes to contact you privately, they can use the "E-mail this user" link in the "toolbox".

A user page is a web-based display of information relating to its author, sometimes including personal information for friends and others. User pages may also be associated with blogs, such that they are a way for internet users to communicate to each other. MySpace is an example of a website in which the focus is user pages. 59.184.143.217 11:41, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the link of Article 51A of Indian constitution in Talk:Other Backward Class. I wish the government sticked to the constituition! Coming days seem to be doomed.--Dwaipayan (talk) 09:40, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your Contributions

Hi,
I have seen you around for the last few days and have noticed that you can contribute quite well with expert's knowledge. However, intersperced with these are a few edits that qualify as original research. Since you have been adding them to talk pages, they aren't removed from there, but please understand that a lot of editors frown upon when they see the talk pages becoming message boards and discussion forums on Original Research topics. I request you to please add data/information only when you can cite verifiable sources, irrespective of whether its article or its talk page. Example of things that qualify as original research are "Somnath Temple is monument of Caste System", "Political Parties get their votes on caste system", etc. Thanks, -Ambuj Saxena (talk) 19:33, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Well I differ from Ambuj in one aspect. I do not think it is necessary to cite sources in one's user page/talk page. Its freedom of speech. Unless you talk something extremely radical and seditious. "Somnath Temple is monument of Caste System", "Political Parties get their votes on caste system", etc - qualify as neither! Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 19:43, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I think Dwaipayan got me wrong. I wasn't talking about user page or user talk pages. I was talking about article talk pages. -Ambuj Saxena (talk) 20:11, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oh! that's bad miss! Yes, in that case one should substantiate with reference, if one is trying to put forward a particular point of view. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 20:19, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Poverty And Hunger : There are many Hungry poors in Indian subcontinent than African subcontinent and India is on top. Border of Pakistan and India (near Punjab, Rajasthan, Kutch) is waste land but Indus Sindhu river pass through this land. Land is plain in surface and can be converted in green belt. Reader of Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia are requested to find out some solution to eradicate the poverty in Indian subcontinent. vkvora 03:35, 27 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Voraji, I think you have not understood what Wikipedia stands for. Wikipedia is not a publisher of original thoughts. It is not a place to socialize and bring about a revolution in real life. The problem of poverty and hunger exist, but Wikipedia is not the place to eradicate it. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. There are greater goods of humanity, but this is not the right place to raise your concerns. There are many online forums I know which will be receptive to your concerns and suggestions. It is essential to have vegetables to live, but its not the job a dispensary to provide them. Eradication of poverty is the vegetable (without which its not possible to live) but Wikipedia is a dispensary (which doesn't sell vegetables). Of course if you want suppliments, you can contribute well-researched and referenced encyclopedic articles on Poverty in India (the dietary vitamin suppliment found at dispensary). Please take my advice once. Avoid raising these issue for the next one month. Till then you will be familiarized with Wikipedia enough and you will yourself stop writing original thoughts here. -Ambuj Saxena (talk) 09:19, 27 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I am sorry I once again differ with Ambuj in just one regard. Voraji is talking in his user talk page and he is free to talk anything. However, of course if he wants to tell these things in an article, he has to substantiate with well-resourced facts.--Dwaipayan (talk) 09:35, 27 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
This was a common reply to his edits here and Talk:India. Of course he can write whatever he wants here, but I reiterated as seeing the reply in Talk:India and here, Voraji was likely to raise the issue again in article talk pages, which I believe is a waste of time. So I just wanted to take him into confidence about Wikipedia's policy. -Ambuj Saxena (talk) 09:45, 27 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
All talk pages are public. vkvora 15:37, 27 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Khatri

Hi, I see you have some knowledge on the Caste system, I was wondering if you would have the time to look over Khatri as this article doesn't really conform to WP:NPOV, it also needs to cite its sources. Thanks. Nobleeagle (Talk) 05:55, 27 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dash & emdash

Vkvora2001, clearly english is not your first language. The location of the dash is grammatically correct, and makes it easier to read. There is no capital or bolding involved at all. Please stop going against the views of the other editors, whose english is better than your. -- Jeff3000 04:18, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Vkvora2001, what you wrote on my talk page makes absolutely no sense. A dash is a way of dividing connecting phrases, much like a comma, but a dash makes that seperation stronger. Capitals are letters at the beginning of sentences, and have nothing to do with dashs. Bolding also has nothing to do with it. If you see it in bold, then it is your browser's fault; the way the sentence is structured in most english browsers on english operating systems is just fine. -- Jeff3000 04:30, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
If you want more help in understanding how dash's work, I could help you, but please know that the current structure of the sentence is just fine. :) -- Jeff3000 04:31, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
From the dash article: "The em dash is used in much the way a colon or set of parentheses is used: it can show an abrupt change in thought or be used where a period is too strong and a comma too weak."
Hope that helps, -- Jeff3000 04:40, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
If this: — does not look like a long dash, then you are probably using an obsolete browser that does not correctly display Unicode-encoded text. This will impose a number of inconveniences on your use of Wikipedia. If you cannot upgrade whatever browser you're using, I suggest you download one that's standard compliant such as Firefox. Alternately, your browser may simply not be changing encoding schemes automatically, and you can try setting it to Unicode manually. It's also possible you lack fonts with proper Unicode support.

- emdash look like capital and bold enlgish 9th letter I, not in my computer but almost all the computers.
59.184.141.109 05:03, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
In that case, all of the computers (what computers? In a library or something?) are set up with obsolete, non-standards-compliant browsers. Please don't expect us to accomodate them.

Gujarati Sahitya Parishad

No problem. There is a great void in wikipedia as far as gujarat is concerned. i am trying to find out stuff, but the net also does not have much information about gujarat. That particular article was created along with Gujarat Vidhya Sabha and Gujarat Sahitya Sabha. Please expand these articles if you have more knowledge about them.

Dholavira's nomination to the World Heritage List

You requested that this be posted on the World Heritage Site article, which is not quite right, since only sites which have already been proclaimed are included there. Dholavira is still being nominated, and based on the reports by the Indian media, not likely in the near future, with them prioritizing the Red Fort and a pilgrimage center in Jammu first. It will be more appropriate to highlight its value for nomination in the Dholavira article. Beside, if such information is included here, then it is a legitimate excuse for other nominations, which may or may not even get the final nod to be included. Please understand, this is an article pertaining to what has been included on the List, not on which places have the potential. Much like how the Olympic Games website only include host cities of past editions as well as approved hosts for future editions, not bids, which are placed in separate articles to avoid any confusion this might cause to those using wikipedia as reference. --Joey80 08:04, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you have specific suggestions or questions about editing related articles, or wish to improve the articles yourself with well-sourced contributions, please don't hesitate. There is a lot of work, so the more contributors, the better.

Poverty-stricken Women washing their clothes by a Main Road in Mumbai, India. by Antônio Milena/ABr


New Delhi, August 7: India has been judged as the sixth most dangerous country for children in the world, according to a recent poll. Afghanistan, Palestinian territories, Myanmar and Chechnya were placed better than India in the poll conducted by Reuters Alertnet, a humanitarian news website run by Reuters Foundation, Rajya Sabha was told today.
During the survey, the website asked more than 110 aid experts and journalists to highlight the most dangerous places for children. The first five dangerous countries are Sudan, Northern Uganda, Democratic Republic of Congo, Iraq and Somalia, Minister of State (independent charge) for Women and Child Development Renuka Chowdhury said while replying to a written question.
The facts that have been taken into account for the poll survey include the children involved in armed conflict, the psychological trauma experienced by children caught up in violence, the children living in poverty and forced to work to support themselves and their families and malnutrition among children, the minister said.

My dear friend you really need to visit India and see the immense changes taking place there:


Hkelkar

Baap-re-Baap!You're really biased and have a negative view of things. I have livedin Mumbai for 15 years and have seen many poor and starving people but nonetheless I don't have such a negative view.I see poverty in India as a dynamic process in transition. Your view is fodder for Pakistani ISI agents and other liberal socialist India-haters and Indophobes.Hkelkar 17:23, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I do not appreciate your pasting a whole news article from Times of India [1]. Do not add copyrighted text into even talk pages. Also, your cut-paste job was totally out of context. Thank you. --Ragib 05:07, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Question and Answer in Indian Parliament is not copy right of any News Paper
Entire news were from Press Trust of India and PTI obtain the news from Indian Parliament. Indian Parliament were discussing about survey done by somebody else and Minister was replying the question for dangerous Indian place for children.
However I have noted the contents and thanks Ragib Bhai. vkvora 14:45, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Abdul Kalam

Greetings, Vkvora. I see that you have been attempting to add something to the page on Abdul Kalam, but I am not sure what it means. Perhaps I can help? Reply here with an explanation of what you were trying to achieve, and I will try to help you do it. — Aetheling 14:09, 26 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you Aetheling Loren Cobb. Abdul Kalam the President of India greets Citizens on each and every religious day such as Holi, Depawalee, Eid, and birth day of Religious Leaders.
He offers regularly a piece of cloth CHADDAR to Ajmer Sharief Dargah (Muslim cemetray) at the cost of Citizens (I repeat at the cost of Citizen). vkvora 02:04, 27 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kashmir is by product of Defence Corruption in India and Pakistan

Shown in green is the region under Pakistani administration. The dark-brown region is the Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh under Indian administration, while the Aksai Chin is the area of Kashmir that is under Chinese administration.
all are part and parcel of attrocity on Poors, Women, Children and Dalits.
A very interesting perspective. Care to tell that to Lashkar e Toiba?
