editing of Jake Hanrahan
Hi, Please put the changes I made back in. The article had more information and links and was therefore more informative after my edit. I don't understand how you can say it is better with less info. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Catpose (talk • contribs) 20:07, 17 March 2017 (UTC)
- Your edits were reverted by user:XLinkBot, a bot account that automatically prevents the addition of certain links to Wikipedia article's. In this case it detected your addition of a twitter link and rollbacked this change. One unfortunate consequence of rollback usage is that it undoes all consecutive edits by the same user (Thus reverting your other edits as well). Titodutta only removed the text "changed al this, why has it been put back to the old version eh?" which you added in the main article body. Excirial (Contact me,Contribs) 20:15, 17 March 2017 (UTC)
Spock's full name
You shouldn't remove valid information from an article just because you think "the article was better before I made that change". That's not a good enough reason. Wikipedia articles about fictional characters are supposed to show the character's full name, even if that full name is very long and from a novel that's not well known, like in the article Wizard of Oz (character). I've added a proper citation, so please don't revert it again. If you want to improve the article, you can add more information, rather than removing information that's already there. --NetSpiker (talk) 11:40, 18 March 2017 (UTC)
- Your this edit is unclear to me. The article is on Spock, and may start accordingly. The offline reference you have added, I am unable to verify it. Regards. --Tito Dutta (talk) 11:45, 18 March 2017 (UTC)
What is unclear about it? Look up the Star Trek novel Ishmael on Google Books and search for the word S'chn. There's your verification. --NetSpiker (talk) 02:35, 19 March 2017 (UTC)
- If you Google Books and other citation to write in that way, why don't you add a couple of citations there? Regards. --Tito Dutta (talk) 14:13, 19 March 2017 (UTC)
Can you rephrase that sentence? I didn't understand it. --NetSpiker (talk) 00:24, 20 March 2017 (UTC)
- If you have Google Books and other citation to write in that way, why don't you add a couple of citations there? Regards. --Tito Dutta (talk) 14:13, 19 March 2017 (UTC)
I thought one citation was enough. --NetSpiker (talk) 06:35, 20 March 2017 (UTC)
- The article title is Spock, you changed the first sentence of it. You added an offline citation which I could not verify. I have not reverted your last edit, but I can see another editor has done so. The regular editors should decide how they want to write the lead. Regards. --Tito Dutta (talk) 06:57, 20 March 2017 (UTC)

- Hi, I have checked some of the references you have added. Reliable newspapers such as The Times of India, The Telegraph, The Hindu, where the person's works have been discussed in details (not one-two (sentence(s) mention), are always good references. Other references sources include, but not limited to: scholarly books, journals, Government websites. Once you further edit the article, I'll make some minor changes, including formatting fixes.

Administrators' newsletter – April 2017
News and updates for administrators from the past month (March 2017).
- TheDJ
- Xnuala • CJ • Oldelpaso • Berean Hunter • Jimbo Wales • Andrew c • Karanacs • Modemac • Scott
- Following a discussion on the backlog of unpatrolled files, consensus was found to create a new user right for autopatrolling file uploads. Implementation progress can be tracked on Phabricator.
- The BLPPROD grandfather clause, which stated that unreferenced biographies of living persons were only eligible for proposed deletion if they were created after March 18, 2010, has been removed following an RfC.
- An RfC has closed with consensus to allow proposed deletion of files. The implementation process is ongoing.
- After an unsuccessful proposal to automatically grant IP block exemption, consensus was found to relax the criteria for granting the user right from needing it to wanting it.
- After a recent RfC, moved pages will soon be featured in a queue similar to Special:NewPagesFeed and require patrolling. Moves by administrators, page movers, and autopatrolled editors will be automatically marked as patrolled.
- Cookie blocks have been deployed. This extends the current autoblock system by setting a cookie for each block, which will then autoblock the user if they switch accounts, even under a new IP.

Ramesh Chandra Majumdar (physicist)
Dear Tito
I need your help. I made a mistake in moving a page. As a result, there is now a page called Wikipedia: Ramesh Chandra Majumdar (physicist) as well as an Article space page with the same name. The history is attached to the Wikipedia: page. I do not have sufficient privileges to merge the pages, or to delete the Article space page and move the Wikipedia: page to it. Can you please fix it? Thanks a lot! Amuk (talk) 10:17, 9 April 2017 (UTC)
- I have studied the article and made the move. Please have a look, and consider adding more reliable citations. --Tito Dutta (talk) 10:32, 9 April 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks! I am working to further improve the article. Amuk (talk) 14:10, 9 April 2017 (UTC)
CVUA
Hello there, I was wondering if you could train me on counter-vandalism. I noticed that your student slots are full but if possible could you accommodate one more student? I've been editing for a few days now, and been reverting vandalism for a while but I'm not quite certain that my fundamentals are good. If you could mentor me, I'd greatly appreciate it. Kondavarsha (talk) 13:20, 8 April 2017 (UTC)
- I have had a look at your contribution page, although you have recently joined, you are working well. We can start discussing tomorrow, if it is ok for you. On Teahouse you asked a question, I'd also suggest to create or expand articles. --Tito Dutta (talk) 13:23, 8 April 2017 (UTC)
- @Tito Dutta: Sure, tomorrow is good. I can expand articles but to create articles I think I'll have to learn wiki markup. --Kondavarsha (talk) 17:58, 8 April 2017 (UTC)
- Hi, that's great. Please see Wikipedia:CHEAT for Wiki markup. Feel free to ask question(s). -- Tito Dutta (talk)18:53, 8 April 2017 (UTC)
CV training program
Hi. I noticed that you are willing to train users about Vandalism in the Counter-Vandalism Unit/Academy. If your free, I'd like to learn few things that might help me to contribute better in the Wikipedia. Thanks in advance (Price Zero (talk) 14:36, 30 March 2017 (UTC))
- Hi, we can start from 1 or 2 April. Please let me know if it is ok. Regards. --Tito Dutta (talk) 16:21, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
- Yes. of course. Looking forward to that. Thank you very much. (Price Zero (talk) 02:15, 31 March 2017 (UTC))
- Let's start. First we'll talk on our talk pages, and after sometime if needed, we'll start a user subpage.
Please read the Wikipedia help article Wikipedia:Vandalism. As you are learning to counter vandalism in a better way, I think this is the first article you should read. --Tito Dutta (talk) 06:47, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks for recommending the article Wikipedia:Vandalism. As your instructions, I have read the article and ready to start the work. (I beg you pardon. I accidentally clicked the save changes button, that's why the page got blanked. I'm really sorry.) (Price Zero (talk) 09:18, 31 March 2017 (UTC))
- No issue. It happens sometimes. Please let me know if you have any question related to the page WP:Vandalism. Please also read WP:AGF. Once you finish reading this page, please explain WP:AGF in your words. --Tito Dutta (talk) 09:33, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
- So far so good. No problem occur.
- Let's start. First we'll talk on our talk pages, and after sometime if needed, we'll start a user subpage.
- Assuming good faith is that when editors contribute to the Wikipedia, they do it with their good faith. They don't want to destroy the Wikipedia but to improve it. It's possible that editors may make some errors in Wikipedia due to misunderstanding or misleading, but its intend is not to harm to the article.(Price Zero (talk) 02:16, 1 April 2017 (UTC))

- Hello Price Zero, apologies for delay in replying. Your narration of AGF looks good. I was checking some of your recent edits (reverts). This looks fine, I could not understand this edit summary. --Tito Dutta (talk) 18:37, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
- Last one was another editor asking for sources telling "give source for everything you add". That's why I revert it. And it is not for vandalism. Not at all. (Price Zero (talk) 03:39, 6 April 2017 (UTC))
- Good. Tomorrow I'll start a discussion subpage. Please let me know if it is ok for you. --Tito Dutta (talk) 18:49, 8 April 2017 (UTC)

Need help and guidness
Hey Titodutta, how are you? I want to discuss something with you about an article on Wikipedia. The article is about Indian actress Vidya Balan. Since you're a senior editor and I have a kind of understanding with you, so I think that It would be good to seek help and guidness from you.
There is an article on Wikipedia about "List of Hindi film clans". This article also features the "Roy Kapur family" clan. Vidya Balan is married to Siddharth Roy Kapur, so that means that Roy Kapur family is also Vidya Balan's family and the members of the family are her in-laws. And everyone knows that In-laws are relatives. So I replaced this "|relatives = Priyamani (second cousin)" with this "|relatives = See Roy Kapur family" on her info-box section ("List of Hindi film clans#Roy Kapur family" also has name of Priyamani) but a user whose name is "Krimuk2.0" reverted my edits with these reasons "Her in-laws aren't her relatives, but her husband's" and "In-laws are what they are, not relatives. also, stop using personal attacks unless you wish to be blocked". Now you tell me what should I do. I know that I am right, In-laws are family members (if not then why Bachchan family is added to Aishwarya Rai and Jaya Bhaduri's info-box, Kapoor family is added to Neetu Singh and Babita Kappor's info-box and so many more), but he reverted my edits twice with lame excuses and also threatned me that he'll block me. Then I discussed it with another editors they said that Krimuk2.0 is a senior editor, they can't do anything about it. Now you tell that can't a senior editor do a mistake. Everyone knows that he's at fault and I am right but they are not doing anything cuz they don't want to mess with a "senior editor" (who can block them). Now I need your help please guide me that what should I do now?? Leave a message on my talk-page. It would be so kind of you. Thank you Many Words (talk) 13:49, 9 April 2017 (UTC)

- A lot of works of need to be done. A Wikipedia article is different from a resume or a personal website. I'll do some formatting and other works. You have submitted it for AFC, let's see how it goes, then we'll recheck. Thanks and all the best. --Tito Dutta (talk) 16:16, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
- Should i edit it more sir? AFC meaning articles for creation sir? I created my draft on sandbox, and then when i felt it was good enough i submitted it! Only then did i realize the teahouse, the criteria etc. I will still try working on it sir.
Thank you so much for the patience and support sir. Sincerely Thank you so very much. Yourgirl (talk) 18:12, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

- Hi, you tried added entries in "Further reading" section, you may have a look at the help page.

Hi sir, it's me again. Submission declined. First there were not reliable sources, now it is this - Remove the autobiographical/C.V. tone from the article.Not everything is encyclopedically notable, just because it can be sourced. Please do tell me what has to be done sir in your free time. thank you Yourgirl (talk) 16:51, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
- We need to find out a solution. Please read WP:NACADEMICS, we'll talk more on it. Regards. --Tito Dutta (talk) 11:03, 16 April 2017 (UTC)
- Sir thank you once again for the reply. I did go through the page sir, even before creating. I may be wrong but there are few reasons why i wanted to create this page: Emergency medicine is budding and is rapidly growing in India, he started the first emergency department in CMC, Vellore. His contributions have helped in starting post graduate EM in India, He is in the advisory board for EM in medical council of India, his textbooks are the only EM textbooks by Indian author, he is member of Fellow of the Australasian College for Emergency Medicine and Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians. He has been chief editor of journals in his field. He is chair and prof of named institution and also in social work during natural calamities, Disaster management course director in Bits etc. these are just a few i felt are important sir.
If i am wrong pls pardon me sir, but these are the reasons that made me create a page on him. In your free time do help me out sir. Thank you so much once again sir. Yourgirl (talk) 19:00, 16 April 2017 (UTC)

Hi,
Would you mind keeping an eye on this article? Vandalism has once again resumed, just a day following your recent semi-protection of it... Thank you. 70.71.160.24 (talk) 22:16, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
- It's unfortunate, and the last edit is a BLP policy violation and possibly a personal attack. I'll watch the article and if it continues, I'll consider a longer semi-protection. Regards. --Tito Dutta (talk) 06:07, 5 May 2017 (UTC)
Counter Vandalism Training
I notice that you have slots available for counter vandalism training. May it be possible for me to receive counter vandalism training from yourself? Note the time difference. (I live in the time zone of UTC+0, though, of course, due to it being spring/summer now, it is actually UTC+1 until October!) Pablothepenguin (talk) 23:50, 5 May 2017 (UTC)

Apologies for delay in responding to some of the recent messages. A few things in real life are keeping me very busy. --Tito Dutta (talk) 07:50, 22 May 2017 (UTC)
