geo co-ordinates

Would you be knowing the coordinates for Kuttanad? =Nichalp «Talk»= 12:34, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

I am not sure... but Kuttanad spans over several districts so it may be not a fixed co-ord rather a range , i believe -- Tinu Cherian - 17:33, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Bot request

Out of curiosity, would your current bot approvals allow you to send {{Meetup/Utah/Invite}} to members of Category:Wikipedians in Utah, Category:Wikipedians in Nevada, Category:Wikipedians in Idaho and Category:Wikipedians in Wyoming? If so could you send out that notice to the category members? (FYI, the template does not include a header, you would have to add a header as well) Thanks! --Admrb♉ltz (talk) 02:57, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Not a problem. I have the task approved for my bot. When Should I send ? -- Tinu Cherian - 07:01, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Could you send it now? Also, will you be able to see if they already have the alert (its not subst'ed so you can use the what links here if you need to). --Admrb♉ltz (talk) 07:30, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Ok. I will do it today. I guess u dont want it to substed , but transcluded as below -- Tinu Cherian - 08:10, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Correct, it looks great. --Admrb♉ltz (talk) 15:06, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

I have done this myself. --Admrb♉ltz (talk) 22:25, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Oops, I am really sorry... I got busy with some work in real life. -- Tinu Cherian - 05:50, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

My RfA

Many apologies for not thanking you promptly for your best wishes. Friday was a very hectic day for me in real life, as was yesterday, and I'm only now catching up with various things. It was very kind of you to wish me luck, and rude of me not to reply faster. Doug Weller (talk) 21:19, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Re: WikiProject Merseyside article tagging?

I've been through the list and I believe that Wikipedia:WikiProject Merseyside/Cats is ready for the bot. Thank you for your help. --Jza84 |  Talk  12:07, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

 Done : Tagging completed for over 1400+ articles for the project. Skipped Category:Mersey-built ships because I wasnt very sure as it has ships of different countries. -- Tinu Cherian - 17:15, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

RFA for Dougweller

Tinu, I popped onto this RFA intending to support, and noticed that you had done so already - twice. So, I indented your second support. As I note at the RFA, good candidates are worth supporting twice - but I wanted to let you know in case there was confusion. Best, UltraExactZZ ^Claims ~ Evidence 11:30, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

OMG ! Well thanq , ya Good candidates like him are worth supporting twice. :) My bad..I had researched on the candidate sometime back and found no concerns. When I came back today, I didnt see my support vote :( ( and wondered I didnt support yet) and hence added again. Thanks again -- Tinu Cherian - 11:40, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Assessment

Hi Tinu,

I was assessing articles for the Mumbai project. It's time-consuming, so I was wondering if your bot could do this:

Task 1a

1. Read Category:Unknown-importance Mumbai articles
2. List them out as comma separated values on a subpage A.
3. List corresponding data such as importance and class on subpage A
4. List the article titles (without the Talk: prefix) on subpage B

Subpage B is for popups, to get a rough idea of the content. I can skip stub articles from full loading. Once this is done, I will populate the csv file with my assessment. It is now ready for Task 1b.

Task 1b

1. Use AWB and Ganesh's CSV plugin
2. Read the CSV file (the header line corresponds to the parameter eg maharashtra-importance, class, image-needed
3. Update the banners

This should speed up review work. Ensure that all locations mentioned in the following are tagged with wikiproject mumbai and maharashtra?

1. {{Mumbai - Suburban Railway,Western}}
2. {{Mumbai - Suburban Railway,Central}}
3. {{Mumbai_-_Suburban_Railway,Central_-_Harbour}}

Do let me know. =Nichalp «Talk»= 16:49, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Hi Nichal, I am extremely sorry for not replying to you in time . Was busy in real life. Unfortunately my bot doesnt have the 1st task capability. I see that you have already assessed all the WP:MUMBAI articles. I can do the task 1b this way, collect all articles that transculdes {{Mumbai - Suburban Railway,Western}} , {{Mumbai - Suburban Railway,Central}} , {{Mumbai_-_Suburban_Railway,Central_-_Harbour}} and tagg them for Maharashtra and mumbai , what say ? -- Tinu Cherian - 05:28, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Thank you

Hi Tinucherian. I would like to thank you for your support in my RfA and the confidence expressed thereby. It is very much appreciated. :) The RfA was closed as successful with 73 supports, 3 opposes and 4 neutral. I would especially like to thank WBOSITG for nominating me. Best wishes and thanks again, —αἰτίας •discussion• 23:13, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Adoption

I was wondering, you say that I am a fast learner, which got me thinking. In the present situation, I'm not really able to edit that much on Wikipedia, logging only only to check up on friends. Do you think I would make a suitable adopter? I would like the opportunity to help out newer and more inexperienced users, fullfiling all the criteria listed on the Adopter's programme page. Do you think I'm up to it? I know more-or-less how Wikipedia works now, where inexperienced users could get help if I cannot provide it and etc. I like meeting new people, showing them to projects where they would be best suited to improve, and get joy from doing so. Would it be worth a gamble? Regards, Blooded Edge ^Sign/_Talk 12:51, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

I am not really sure whether you are actually ready for taking adoptions yourself , but may I suggest something ? Try this : Wikipedia:New contributors' help page and Wikipedia:Help desk . See how you can help others here. Also do keep a watch on Wikipedians looking for help to help out. Once you gain some experience here and feel comfortable , you may post yourself as an adoptor. I also appreciate your interest in meeting new people, but please do remember that Wikipedia is not a social network such as MySpace or Facebook . Btw did you get a chance to look into some of the links I gave you. -- Tinu Cherian - 05:20, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

No actually, sorry, I've been down throughout the weekend with a very irritating throat infection. Wasn't able to do any homework, let alone check up on Wikipedia :(. Though I did have a quick skim through them before, if it was only a breif glance. Thanks much for your own opinions, I'll commit myself to more projects and etc provided I can keep myself above the assignment level (XD). Blooded Edge ^Sign/_Talk 17:00, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Note

Will reply properly when my time has freed up a bit. Btw, thank you for your message :) Ncmvocalist (talk) 05:26, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

OK. Should you wish you may mail me -- Tinu Cherian - 12:01, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Hello

Hi there. You are quite right about Juliancolton. I have a few questions for you, alright?

One, I would like to go to the page and express my opposition but it is almost a foregone conclusion that he will be swept into adminship. The only way I can see to have him defeated would be if you or someone else expressed the following. Two, I would be attacked on that page for expressing my sincere opposition to him and others who are his ilk. His nominator, Hink, is pretty terrible at the same things.

There is way too much emphasis now on having people become administrators who are heavy handed. These people often are guilty of spending huge amounts of time in nearly useless editing. Not that anything can be totally a waste but there are priorities of course. They also have pet projects and can even be a bit dictatorial and ban-happy. Here is where I ran afoul of Julian, Hink, Plasticup, Profilaes, etc. These guys are just going crazy and anyone who dissents must be a troublemaker of course. Never mind that I have been on Wikipedia longer than any one of them and perhaps longer than a couple of them put together.

I see Wikipedia as having some serious problems now. If a user is only interested in being a minor piece of something or hidden as it were behind trees and rocks in a forest scene, he or she won't have trouble. Let this same person decide to express an opinion and all kinds of wrath ensues. Anyway, I am also a Christian. I don't appreciate such things. I would like to see Julian defeated and Wikipedia brought back to a more normal society. Let's start a discourse and see what we can accomplish as far as bringing a bit more intelligence to how people conduct themselves on here. There is a bias on here as to those who can spend more than five hours a week up to twenty or whatever versus those who only spend ten to fifteen minutes a day. That should not occur. People do have busy lives and not everyone can dedicate such a huge part of their lives to this endeavor. Talk to you later! Moonlight25 (talk) 10:22, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Altough I dont agree with some of your comments, I thank you for leaving a note on my talk page. I vote for/aganist admin hopefuls at RFAs based on their merits and demerits. Sincerely I dont see any concerns regarding Juliancolton and obviously I have supported him by now. "I have been on Wikipedia much longer than these guys" , I guessed you have a master account. Which one ? :) If you have concerns regarding them, why dont you discuss with them or try ANI? . If there is anything that I can help otherwise, please let me know. Thanks -- Tinu Cherian - 11:57, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Re: TinucherianBot

Hey, can you teach me how you make a tagging bot? I'm interested in quickly clearing up unassessed articles in WP:UNI and WP:ROBO. Could I ask you to merge it into one of the operations TinucherianBot does or do I need to file for a BRFA? Technically it's part of Operation 5 of TinucherianBot... Anyways, thanks for your help. - Jameson L. Tai ^{talk ♦ contribs} 13:26, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

I could do it for you for your project per task5 of TinucherianBot ( see the bot page for more details) . Well, I dont mind sharing the code for you , if you want to do it urself...Need a detailed writeup for this, I will respond regarding this by tommorrow ( IST )..-- Tinu Cherian - 13:53, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Task 5 seems like a better idea. If you could do that for those two WikiProjects that would be awesome. Thanks a lot! :D - Jameson L. Tai ^{talk ♦ contribs} 14:11, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

 Doing... Autoassessment for WP:UNI and WP:ROBO . -- Tinu Cherian - 07:12, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

Re: Assessing

With 2 tagging, can you bot also assess the articles? Say if I mention that all schools get a mid rating? Regards, =Nichalp «Talk»= 14:06, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
