Thanks

[edit]

for your birthday greeting. Unfortunately I don't "rock" too much! I only listen to occasional rock/metal songs though I don't mind classical rock too much. Cheers GizzaChat © 07:02, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey

[edit]

I'm sorry - for everything. I think it's best not to go into much more detail than that. I was wrong about it all. Except Metalocalypse - It still ROCKS. And I really did think you looked like a cool person.NinaEliza 05:39, 7 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Did you know?

Hi, I came to u through Satavahanas page. I had also seen u on Shivaji page. satvahanas had Marathi as their court-language and not Maharashtri-Prakrit. Also I request u to have a look on Yadavas of Deogiri page. 04:25, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

I have been blocked and slapped with false allegations of being sock and abusive etc. I have a book of Mr.Kolarkar (Marathyancha itihaas) where their not a single mention of Yadavas of Deogiri being Kannadiga or court language being kannada yet Mr.Kannambadi has added some stuff which are not related to 'Yadavas of Deogiri'. He says about 500 inscriptions are found in karnataka (of Yadavas) and now he's saying that some other user might have added it and those inscriptions prove that kannada was a court-language of Yadavas. The same user tend to hide Maratha-origin theory as well on rashtrakutas.
I request u to verify Yadavas article closely. Itihaas 11:02, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Request

[edit]

I request u to revert the removal my valid edits at Seuna_yadavas_of_devagiri since Google books are allowed as citations on wikipedia. A certain user is insulting Marathi history and pushing kannada stuff in our articles.Plz find the details on talk page and history.

Plz do so. whatever i have done on yadavs page was according to wikipedia rules and norms. Yet the article isnt available for edition for me. Mr.Kannambadi with his Marathi-hatred has jeopardized the article. I have worked very hard to get the books and sources. Vishu123 06:54, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I am waiting for ur help. Dont we have more Marathi guys here who are intrested in history? Few editors are deliberately destroying Marathi history artciles and inserting their language nonsense. yadavas the pure Marathi empire is one of them. On top of it my cited info is shamelessly removed. Its like 'aaple te baal dusryache te karta'.Vishu123 19:19, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

see this where Mr.Kannambadi shamelessly insults yadavas and if any sane person reads it will understand that here Kannambadi is agreeing that yadavas were Marathis and suddenly he gets down and adds kannada nonsense their.Vishu123 19:23, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is pity that it is only me who's fighting against Mr.Kannambadi's insult of Maharashtra history. As a Marathi person u should had supported me against him especially when i am talking sense and true. Arent Yadavas of Devagiri our ancestors? If they are kannadiga so are you and me. After spending horus in library looking for books and spending fee hundred rupees all what i have got is insults and ill-comments from Mr.kannambadi and his allias. Still none of Marathi editors are aware of dubious partisan and one-sided books of Mr.Kannambadi. Why is he pampared even if he has a deep hatred against Maharashtrians and he himself has agreed that Yadavas are marathi also see this this. In the Ganagas page he is removing the Shravanbelagola Marathi inscription by giving hillarious explaination of it is already on other page? So why should be on this relevant page? He deleted everything i added in rashtrakutas chalukyas yadavas by imagining that Google books and marathi books are not allowed. I even presented the links to prove that they are allowed and result is i am blocked! Still no one is taking note of his blatant kannada terrorism across the history articles of wikipedia. For instance go to any page made by him and serach for word 'kannada.

I am almost thrown out out of all articles by various blocks, silence of marathi editors and inaction by concerned seniors. I have done my duty of trying my best. I have not taken the 'theka' of defending these articles. It is getting on my nerves. I am going to throw my books to kabadi because of these kannambadis in wikipedia. rememebr it is our ignorance which is enabling such kannambadis to ruin our articles. 59.95.39.200 07:15, 5 January 2007 (UTC) PS-Neither i am mahwiki or sarvabhaum. i dont know why u ppl slap me with these allegations? 59.95.39.200 07:15, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject India Newsletter: Volume II, Issue 1 - January 2007

[edit]
Project News
  • Project tagging:After a brief edit war over the addition of {{WP India}} to ancient archaeological sites now located in Pakistan, a "pre" parameter was introduced to remove the ROI flag from the template for pre-1947 articles, following discussion. After another large discussion on ANI alleging that the automated tagging by Ganeshbot and LostBot was "nationalistic", Ganeshbot was briefly blocked. Currently, the bots are again in action.
  • Swastika on Hinduism templates:Recently, an extremely large and at times emotional debate broke out regarding the use of the swastika on Hinduism templates, given its association with Nazism. As a result, {{Hindu Links}} now contains an educational message about the use of the swastika, as discussion on a more permanent resolution continues.

Rock music Wikiproject invitation

[edit]

Hello WikiProject Metal member.
WikiProject Metal music is important in expanding encyclopedic coverage of the metal. It brings attention to the lesser-known bands, and significantly improves the quality of the famous ones. Five Featured articles and two formers is proof of that.
This is the stuff I wish to achieve with the somewhat recently resurrected WikiProject Rock music. I hope to also attract attention to rock music articles of all sorts, and hopefully change some to GA or FA status. I invite you to come join us, and embrace the links between metal and rock music in general.
Rock on.

WikiProject India Newsletter: Volume II, Issue 2 - March 2007

[edit]
Project News
  • Jimbo's visit to India and the WikiCamp in Chennai: Jimbo recently visited India in late February and early March on wiki work. This included a trip to a WikiCamp in Chennai. The one day conference attracted 300 participants from across India and beyond dealt with issues facing wikis ([5]). It was widely covered by the press, eg The Hindu( [6]), which cited the efforts of Bhadani (edit count), Sundar (leadership on Tamil Wikipedia) and Ganeshk (Creation of Ganeshbot to create articles on Indian towns from census figures). Ganeshk himself travelled from California to attend the conference.
  • Wikipedia Weekly 15: Wikipedia Weekly, a informal Wikipedians' program that purports to give "A weekly audio roundup of Wikipedia happenings with news, interviews and roundtable discussions" recently interviewed two prominent editors Rama's Arrow and Ragib(listen). The entire 34 minute interview was entirely about the world of Indian subcontinent wiki-happenings, and was the first episode which was not entirely dominated by discussion of wiki-politics and wiki-bureaucracy, with the host Witty lama praising the efficiency of the project and its proliferation of featured content. Rama's Arrow cited the team spirit, friendship and respect among project members in discussing its success and FA productivity, as well as discussing subcontinental wiki-conflict. Ragib talked also of his public campaign to raise awareness of the Bengali Wikipedia in his native Bangladesh, which has seen a 30-fold increase in article count over the past year.

  • More generally, certain Indian users have recently been subject to real life harassment by banned users, etc. If this is affecting you in real life, please do not hesitate to contact Wikimedia board members for assistance, or ask a senior Wikipedian to solicit help on your behalf if required.
  • Nishkid64, a prolific contributor and administrator, is currently undergoing surgery to fix a congenital heart defect. You can wish him well here.
