Hello!
Hey Titodutta! I hope your feeling better. Sorry for all the hard and demanding times we had. And I want to show you something :-). --Aaqib Waramchoi (talk) 15:14, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
- Look, it is about India. And this type of wiki needs more Asians. --Aaqib Waramchoi (talk) 17:54, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

Your input invited
Hi Tito, We were just shooting the breeze on my talk page about a list of historic schools in India and, as is usual, the conversation drifted to unrelated things, eventually leading to Bengali names and how in the Calcutta University Calendar of 1868, they were all transcribed in their Sanskrit forms. Since your name came up in the discussion, User_talk:Fowler&fowler#Colonial_India (second half), I thought you might want to weigh in (if you so choose). We were just trying to understand, not make fun or anything like that. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 16:19, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
- Replied at your talk. --Tito☸Dutta 16:36, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
Hi, can you clarify whether Nemai Ghosh, the man behind Chinnamul and the one who is mentioned here are one and the same. —Vensatry (Ping me) 16:33, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
- @Vensatry: no, see Nimai Ghosh and Nemai Ghosh. Sources often confuse these two spellings. --Tito☸Dutta 16:36, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
- Both are cinematographers hailing from West Bengal and more importantly they worked for Satyajit Ray. Of these one has worked in Tamil films and even won a National Award. —Vensatry (Ping me) 16:41, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
- @Vensatry: Nemai Ghosh the article you have created was a film director. I have not read any article or book which mention Nemai Ghosh, after making a remarkable film like Chinnamul went to work ahead in Ray's films as a cinematographer. I believe, they were two different people. Anyway, see Robinson's comment. Tito☸Dutta 17:02, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
- Wasn't Nimai Ghosh associated with Ray? —Vensatry (Ping me) 17:23, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
- @Vensatry:, not the one who made Chinnamul, but, don't despair, you have created a wonderful article. Please spend two minutes to read the plot section of Chinnamul, he made the film in 1950, 5 years before Pather Panchali. Satyajit ray's photographer and Chinnamul's director are two different people, that's how I feel. Tito☸Dutta 17:27, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

Hmm, looks like both worked in Tamil too. —Vensatry (Ping me) 17:37, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
- I do not know about their Tamil works. --Tito☸Dutta 17:41, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
- While some sources state that he passed away in 1988, this document states that he was one of the jury members at the 55th NFA. —Vensatry (Ping me) 17:45, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
- Which "he"? Unless there is some clear mention that Chinnamul's Nemai Ghosh worked with Ray, I suggest to leave as it is. Tito☸Dutta 17:47, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
- The Nemai Ghosh who made Chinnamul should be the older one. The still photographer of Ray on the other hand is said to be 77 years old (in 2011), who again goes with the same name. He may not be the one who made Chinnamul, since it's hard to believe someone making a film at 16. —Vensatry (Ping me) 17:56, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
- Yes that seems correct. --Tito☸Dutta 18:36, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

I was going by the Chicago Inter Ocean article. Looking at Google Books, the results are all over the place: the top three results are Religion Not the Crying Need of India, Religion not the Crying Need of India, and Religion not the crying need of India. That is: three different capitalisations, and none of them the one you had. StAnselm (talk) 09:29, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
Re: Swami Viveknanda DYK
I am going to nominate Influence and legacy of Swami Vivekananda for DYK but please provide me with Hook and Image. I know the rest. Sohambanerjee1998 16:18, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
- Try Tagore'e or Gandhi's comments. Hook was suggested at your talk. Tito☸Dutta 17:12, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
- I looked over my talk, no hook was suggested. Please suggest a hook. Sohambanerjee1998 07:07, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
I had asked Rosiestep to nominate Template:Did you know nominations/Vivekananda in California but it has not been possible to trasnclude it to the DYK nomination page. Please see to rectify.--Nvvchar. 08:30, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- Nvv, don't know what to do with it but please provide me with a hook regarding the Influence and legacy of Swami Vivekananda. Sohambanerjee1998 08:40, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
Today is Gandhij's birth day celebration. I suppose this hook ... that Influence and legacy of Swami Vivekananda was profound on Mahatma Gandhi (pictured) during his visit to Belur Math in 1921 when he said “that the love that I had for my country became a thousand-fold”? should be fine. Add picture of Gandhi which is in the article.--Nvvchar. 09:24, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
Tito, has the above nominated? Otherwsie I will nominate it. How about three other articles still on your user page. There is also on Surya Namaskar Yagna on my user sandbox page? can you get some solid refrences on Vivekananda Temple in Belur Math.--Nvvchar. 12:04, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- Nvv, if by the above you were referring to me then I have a name, please use it. I will be indebted to you. Sorry for the late reply as I am on a wikibreak, came back only for the DYK noms. Regarding the hook, its too long and will get rejected. Suggest a shorter hook, within 200 characters. Please ping me when you are replying. Sohambanerjee1998 12:25, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- If there is no objection to the use of the honorific, then please go head and nominate. You can move other articles also and nominate. I will out for an hour and nominate Influence and legacy of Swami Vivekananda. --Nvvchar. 12:24, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- Extremely confused.
Please provide the below -
- Hook (within 200 characters) - ... that Influence and legacy of Swami Vivekananda was deep on Mahatma Gandhi during his 1921 visit to Belur Math when he said “that the love that I had for my country became a thousand-fold”? It is just 200 ch
- Picture -Picture of Gandhi is in the article
for the article Influence and legacy of Swami Vivekananda. Sohambanerjee1998 12:51, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

Hello and thank you
Hello Titodutta, and thank you for your many contributions to Wikipedia. I am contacting you because you are an active editor who was listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Neutrality. It is my hypothesis that a re-branded "WikiProject" that is more "edgy" and decentralized could prove to be more successful than a structured WikiProject when tackling issues related to this core concept. So I have started something I named Wikipedia:Neutrality cabal. I've already gotten a real-life friend to sign up, and you might know how hard that is to get people to participate on this medium. I invite you to sign up and contribute there so that we can hopefully collaborate, build camaraderie, and improve the encyclopedia. Best regards. Biosthmors (talk) pls notify me (i.e. {{U}}) while signing a reply, thx 17:14, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- @Biosthmors: I can not understand where to add name. You may add my name anywhere you want. In addition, the page may need redesigning. See a recent page I have designed Wikipedia:WikiProject Swami Vivekananda Tito☸Dutta 17:35, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- Done! Welcome. =) Biosthmors (talk) pls notify me (i.e. {{U}}) while signing a reply, thx 17:39, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- And that is a very neat design, thank you! Are there any other examples of WikiProject page designs you favor? I'm looking into that, as you may have seen from my talk page. Thanks again. Biosthmors (talk) pls notify me (i.e. {{U}}) while signing a reply, thx 17:41, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- @Biosthmors: I have made some very basic changes here User:Titodutta/sandbox2 Tito☸Dutta 17:54, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- It looks good, thank you. =) Feel free to implement it. Biosthmors (talk) pls notify me (i.e. {{U}}) while signing a reply, thx 18:03, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

Your edit comment
Thank you for self-reverting. I'm not sure what you intended with the reverted edit's comment. Neither of us is a newcomer here. The article does need substantial work to meet basic standards of grammar, and reduce the reliance on sources tied too closely to the subject.LeadSongDog come howl! 03:36, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- @LeadSongDog:, your edit was partially correct. Note, primary sources are not evil always, WP:PRIMARY also says
Unless restricted by another policy, primary sources that have been reliably published may be used in Wikipedia; but only with care, because it is easy to misuse them
. The two sources I generally refer, are widely referred everywhere, see Google Books, the best of best sources refer those two books. The cares they mentioned: don't analyse them, don't interpret them, I kept those in mind. Tito☸Dutta 11:49, 2 October 2013 (UTC)- I was more curious about the wp:BITE edit comment, because it doesn't seem to apply. I was rather restrained about applying the {{primary sources}} tags. In fact very few of the sources seem to be written from an independent, objective wp:POV. Most of them are written or published by followers, disciples, maths, etc, and have a distinctly admiring tone to them, omitting anything critical of the subject. Truly independent secondary sources are far more reliable. This sort of source can be a challenge to find when writing articles on religious, faith-based, and clerical subjects, but it is all the more necessary in such topic areas. LeadSongDog come howl! 15:13, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- @LeadSongDog: One may bite anyone, newbie or oldie does not matter. I did not notice your name while reverting, I self-reverted because I found you tried to help as well by making some copyediting and making some changes in the "sources" section. That's a good thing. Coming to the sources: the two sources you have tagged a) Vivekananda 2006 — I used it only once in the article, and the information was supported by two sources — one secondary source. You could easily remove the Vivekananda 2006 source. There is no rule that each information need to be supported by multiple sources, but, sometimes I try to do so, specially if the information is sensitive. About the second source "My India, Eternal India", this is a wonder book, let me inform you, the book is divided into two parts, the first part (which covers 3/4th of the book) is just collection of quotes of Vivekananda and in the second part is biographical and contains few essays etc. Naturally the first part's authorship is attributed to Vivekananda (since it is his quotes), but, the second part is written by Lokeswarananda. I cited content from the second part. I am unsure, if in such situation I should include only the section author's name. It'll not be an issue to find secondary sources for those 2—3 quotes. The only two differences are— a) in these books you have all information in one place, else you have to search here there, everywhere, read fragments (i.e. Google Books preview) peep into snippets, b) I generally try to cite from these books Wikipedia:WikiProject Swami Vivekananda/Harvnb, I have started buying books, but, some of the books are very very high-priced, I just can not afford them. Rajagopal Chattopadhyay's book and few other books are my long time targets, but price is just too high (since these books are everyday requirement, collecting from library will not help since I have to return the book to them after few days). Primary sources are not bad always, see the article Creative Commons license, almost all sources are primary, and that is needed there and helps the article. WP:PRIMARY suggests to use primary sources with care. I did not analyse sources or added my comments, just rewrote information. Those books are referred everywhere by scholars and researchers, it is better to cite directly than to write like this "Scholar A in his "Book A" cited "Writer B"'s "Book B" where "Writer B" told ...." But, yes, the cares WP:PRIMARY mentions should be carefully and strictly taken.
About the copyedit issues, yes, it was a known issue, there were/are many typos, error. If you see the edit history, I saved the first edit with some 13 thousand bytes. It took me 3 and a half hour to study to prepare just "one" edit. I told two more editors that after studying many pages and writing 16 thousand bytes in four five hours at a stretch, I was tired and asked them to make necessary changes. Copyediting is being done. You may help. Tito☸Dutta 15:49, 2 October 2013 (UTC)- And for information, as I have said "My India, Eternal India" is a wonderful book, actually every quote, every paragraph and everything there is cited as well. There are footnotes for everything — from where they have taken e.g. Kesari 4 July 1902, Indian Mirror 15 February 1898, Swaraj 22 Vaisakh 1214 (Bengali year), Aurbindo's complete works, Bose's memorial volume, Nehru's autobiography — everything has details including page number, year, edition — like Wikipedia. But, naturally I can not access those sources from a "paper book", I don't know what should I do here, cite "My India, Eternal India" or the sources they are referring (and I have not seen them). Tito☸Dutta 15:57, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- You might want to review wp:CITEHOW and wp:SAYWHEREYOUGOTIT for guidance on citation situations such as that. It is rarely helpful to make massive edits such as you describe. In most cases it is better to work on one section at a time, introducing one idea per edit. This makes for much simpler discourse between editors. Cheers.LeadSongDog come howl! 13:49, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

- What a coincidence! Yesterday night I was thinking of an article om the music related article on Vivekananda. The book Sangeet Kalpataru is still under circulation. I think the content should be in the present tense. Why not one on Musicologist Vivekananda if we can enough material to write on it? --Nvvchar. 05:11, 4 October 2013 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for October 4
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Sangeet Kalpataru, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ramprasad (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.

Time for a DYK. It should be added and sourced within the article's lede, but I'm thinking
- "Did you know... that the 2012 biographical film Sri Ramakrishna Darshanam is the first film capturing the life and times of 19th-century Bengali mystic saint Ramakrishna?

Hello! Your submission of Template:Did you know nominations/Rousing Call to Hindu Nation at the Did You Know nominations page is not complete; see step 3 of the nomination procedure. If you do not want to continue with the nomination, tag the nomination page with {{db-g7}}, or ask a DYK admin. Thank you. DYKHousekeepingBot (talk) 11:51, 5 October 2013 (UTC)

Sangeeta Kalpataru
I have completed my inputs to Sangeet Kalpataru also. But it may be useful to give the names of the 12 songs included in the book. This reference [2] gives names of songs scripted and sung by Vivekananda and Ramakrishna and if you have the book you can verify if these songs are part of the book. This book is also a very good sources to write on Vivekananda's passion for music.
Relationship between Ramakrishna and Swami Vivekananda is done. You may lie ro romove the hat tag on copy editing since I have done my bit.
Swami Vivekananda's prayer to Kali at Dakshineswar is also done. Now, all three articles could be nominated. --Nvvchar. 14:35, 5 October 2013 (UTC)

- Tito, I failed to nominate Mysore Dasara 2013 on the news page for 6th. Can you help, pl.--Nvvchar. 12:49, 6 October 2013 (UTC)
- Swami Vivekananda Youth Employment Week. There is some confusion as the official web site gives different dates in 2013. The img in the article also seems to be of 2013. I do not understand Gujarati well. I do not subscribe to the theme of this article.--Nvvchar. 13:03, 6 October 2013 (UTC)
- Dasara article for news page has been killed. You may like to join me before I post it on DYK as there is still time for that. The User:Titodutta/Vedanta Society of Northern California and User:Titodutta/Kanyakumari resolve of 1892 are yet to be moved. There 17 articles of Vivekananda pending approval on DYK. In the relationship article who don't you post Ramakrishna's photo. There are already many of Vivekananda imgs on DYK and many more will come also. I have read the Ramakrishna article and talk page discussions. I doubt very much if it can ever be taken to GA considering the controversies. Any way I will work on it a little more leisurely but not at the DYK pace. --Nvvchar. 07:18, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

Article help
Tito, a new user is creating articles about his family. I got involved because I speedy deleted one article. Unfortunately, I undermined my own credibility by mistakenly tacking on a BLPPROD tag to one of the other articles, without realizing the person was no longer alive. At this point, I think it would be preferable for someone else to look at the articles and evaluate whether they should remain at all on Wikipedia and, if yes, clean them up. Besides, you're much more knowledgeable than I am about Indian subjects. The two articles are Y.Adinarayana Reddy and YerrapuReddy Ravindra Reddy.
If you don't have the time or inclination to look at them, no worries, just let me know, and I'll see if I can find someone else. Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:38, 6 October 2013 (UTC)
- @Bbb23: I have nominated the second article for deletion Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/YerrapuReddy Ravindra Reddy, I can see few (2—3) mentions of senior Reddy in Google books and Google web. I don't like their replies, they should not remove templates, most probably they will removed the AFD template too. --Tito☸Dutta 15:00, 6 October 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks, Tito, I commented at the AfD.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:13, 6 October 2013 (UTC)

Well, today I need you HELP regarding the Continuous vandalism & Promotional Entry on page Bhowmick by some Unregistered users. Few of them are, 223.184.108.204 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log), 117.240.185.132 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log), 27.56.118.187 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log).

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.
IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.
Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
- Views/Day
- Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.
- Quality
- Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current assessment class, and predicted assessment class.
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:
- Content
- Is more content needed?
- Headings
- Does this article have an appropriate section structure?
- Images
- Is the number of illustrative images about right?
- Links
- Does this article link to enough other Wikipedia articles?
- Sources
- For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 11:25, 11 October 2013 (UTC)
