My greetings to you Gizza. Hopefully a start of a peaceful period. And perhaps the ascension of the first Punjabi FA bio? Blnguyen (bananabucket) 05:00, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It's ready I think! 80kb and all Test and ODI series covered comprehensively. Here's the application. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 05:39, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

An arbitration case has been filed against me. Could you please take a look into it? Many regards, —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Freedom skies (talk • contribs) 10:02, 17 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Assessment[edit]

I'm going through Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/India articles by quality/1 and there are simply too many overrated articles in the list. Hopefully I don't get bored doing it :) =Nichalp «Talk»= 09:59, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Category of "women writers" under review for reinstatement[edit]

Hi! I hope you will pardon this notice, but the category "women writers" was recently deleted and is now up for deletion review. I noticed that you commented on an earlier discussion about "women" as a qualifier in categories and thought that you might like to know about the current discussion. scribblingwoman 16:36, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sehgal[edit]

Your second one: सैगल‌ is right. dishant 07:21, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Welcome back[edit]

Thanks - it was great to get away. Australia is looking great in the World Cup. Good luck. ॐ Priyanath talk 04:05, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well then, my apologies and condolences. I was visiting India just when the World Cup began, and hopes were up for at least a good showing. I'm happy that Bangladesh made it to the next round. I'm still working on Vairagya when it comes to sports - the two don't go together very well I'm afraid. I've seen Buddhipriya's good editing, and also liked the barnstar (Hindu Firestar) he created, which I've been wanting to tell him. ॐ Priyanath talk 00:24, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Admin Anniversary[edit]

Happy anniversary Gizza. It's been great working with you. Keep it up. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 07:19, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Malhotra[edit]

Do you know of the existence of any Elite Dhai Ghar in which the Malhotras are defined as the highest of the Kshatriya? Do you know of the idea that Malhotras are all descended from Lord Yudhishtira? Do you believe Vivek Malhotra, who teaches biology in the University of California, has notability? Well that is what is proposed in the current version of the Malhotra page. I tried reverting but was reverted by 3 different users, some of them citing vandalism. The article fails all of Wikipedia's guidelines and policies. I request your help in maintaining this page. dishant 07:34, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And the IP user who is promoting these ideas and just blanked this message on your talk page also has done this edit, in which they add unsourced claims blatantly!. dishant 08:13, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
If it doesn't take too much time, is this source enough to include the Dhai Ghar stuff into the Malhotra article?? It's more about intercaste marriage. Searching "Dhai Ghar" in google gives 19 results, some from Wikipedia copy sites. dishant 05:47, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Dishant and 81.xxx, you may have noticed that I haven't been involved in this dispute for awhile now. I think you two should perform a Request for Mediation where many neutral people will analyse your arguments for including or discluding the information of Khatris, Vaishyas etc. I do not have the time right now to see if the sources given from both sides are true or not. Best wishes to both of you. GizzaChat © 11:49, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello[edit]

Reference: [1].

I have put my reply on my talk page. Thanks for coming to my page. --Bhadani (talk) 11:13, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Happy admin-anniversary. Time flies so fast. --Bhadani (talk) 11:15, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

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 ([2]). It was widely covered by the press, eg The Hindu( [3]), 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.

Note from Editor's Desk
  • Welcome to the March 2007 edition of our newsletter.
  • Congratulations to one of our most respected writers, bureaucrats and administrators, Nichalp, who is now entrusted with the oversight permission. In addition Riana has joined the administrative ranks after a successful RfA.
  • On a sad note, Nobleeagle, who was responsible for the creation of the Punjab WikiProject, and was largely responsible for Indian cricket team, Bhagat Singh and Lage Raho Munna Bhai becoming GAs, as well as working heavily in Indian religious and cricket work, has left the project after having his identity revealed.
  • 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.
  • Weekly Collaboration (Shortcut:WP:INCOTW): Collaboration of the Week has fallen from its once high feats. Please drop by and help rejuvenate it.
  • As before, we'd like to stress, this is your newsletter, and we want you to be part of it as well. Provide us with news tips. It can be anything related to the project, from discussions to calls for help, and other interesting stuff within our community.

This edition special
  • Translation Department: Can you read and write any languages of India? Do you know multiple languages and are looking to keep your skills at a high level or improve them? If so, the Translation Depeartment may be for you!

The translation department of the India WikiProject aims to utilize high-quality non-English material related to India for the goals of the project. This includes both translating articles from and to other-language Wikipedias as well as assisting contributors with non-English sources. The department aims to provide services in transliteration, formulating scripts for various languages, as well as translating articles from one language to another and validating sources in other languages to that of the encyclopedia article. If you are looking for a friendly translator here is your go-to point. Currently, we are still seeking representation for Kashmiri, Nepali, Oriya, Sindhi and Tulu, as well as reinforcements in all other languages.
