- I'll leave the helpme tag up for more eyes, but it looks like you're referring to the material at Ravana that was removed here, and that you re-added here. It was originally removed with a request that it be re-written - there are parts that seem a little difficult to read, due to both grammar and word selection. Not a major problem, as that's why we have sandboxes to edit content in. A concern was also raised about the sources; we'll want to make sure that the information you include is from reliable and independent sources, and that the article is written from a Neutral point of view. If you're concerned about the removal, the first step would be to ask the editor who removed it - DaGizza. You can leave a message on their talk page here.

- I mentioned this on Talk:Ravana, but according to Wikipedia:Reliable source examples, other Wikipedia articles should not be used as references. The text should also be wikified, and it would be beneficial to have in-line citations. As Ultraexactzz stated, it would be a good idea to talk with DaGizza about this.

Thanks. The material about Ravana temples in India can be verified as they are still there and some of them since centuries. Mandor the place where Ravana is said to have married Mandodari is a town near Jodhpur. The altar there is a Government protected monument. Dave Brahmins of Godha/Mudgal gotra who claim to be descendants of Ravana are very much there in Jodhpur. In fact I visited the Ravana temple at Jodhpur and discussed with the temple priest there. Recently I spoke to a professor whose PhD thesis was on Ramayana. The professor was surprised when I told about Mandor and Dave Brahmins of Jodhpur. I wish the material I presented be independently verified so that the truth may prevail.Cheers. DMR Sekhar (talk) 07:47, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of Mudgal Gotra
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on Mudgal Gotra requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. The Llama! (talk) 10:41, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
Knol
[edit]I'm afraid that for two reasons you should not be using your Knol article on Wikipedia. First, there is the conflict of interest problem - please read WP:COI. Secondly, it's self-published - please see WP:SPS - which except for very well known experts in a field means we don't use it. Sorry about that, but hopefully you know some sources that can be used -- see WP:RS for help with what we are looking for. Dougweller (talk) 15:41, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of PROM Technology
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on PROM Technology requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for organizations and companies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

This article is not about any organisation. This article is about a natural technique of phosphatic fertilization which is of interest to the humanity. If the editors feel that mentioning about PROM Society which is a knowledge society, is the problem then the editors may suitably edit the text. PROM Society is not a commercial organisation.
Thanks, DMR Sekhar
File source problem with File:Bull of Ongole.jpg
[edit]![File Copyright problem](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading File:Bull of Ongole.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 18:05, 25 October 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ZooFari 18:05, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Dear Sir, I DMR Sekhar up loaded the picture of the Ongole Bull. The picture may be in public domain and may be used by any body. Let me also add that the bull in the picture won both state and national level awards in India. I own that photo and my father owned that Bull. Thanks. DMR Sekhar (talk) 08:54, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
Indigenous Aryans
[edit]Hi, Thanks for your contribution to the Indigenous Aryans page. Unfortunately, your new section wasn't properly formatted and is also contentious. I have moved to the Talk:Indigenous Aryans page so that it can be discussed. Please continue the discussion there. Cheers, Kautilya3 (talk) 07:01, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
