Contested speedy[edit]

Hey, you nominated World War One: War At Sea for speedy deletion under criteria G7. However, the page was never blanked, nor did the creator indicate it could be deleted. A more appropriate criteria would be criteria A3, for pages without content. I am waiting to see if the user returns to expand the article first though. Yoenit (talk) 15:44, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Page was blank, there was only 2 tags. that is unreferenced, & uncategorized. so i nominated as Critaria G7Odisha1 (talk) 15:51, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. --Srikant Kedia 14:53, 9 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Odisha/Orissa[edit]

Thanks I appreciate your note, but English-language Wikipedia articles are named after their most common name, so although Orissa was recently renamed, it will take time before it is moved to Odisha. See this discussion for more. —Justin (koavf)TCM☯ 17:51, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop restoring non-free content to this or any other non-article page. In this edit you re-added the image File:Sanjukta Panigrahi, (1944-1997).jpg to the page, which is clearly marked as non-free image. Such images are not permitted to be used in portals or any other non-main space article page, per WP:NFCC #9. If you have questions, please ask. Thank you, --Hammersoft (talk) 20:35, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Odisha, you recently moved this article (probably to its correct title). While there's nothing wrong with that, you did it while the article was nominated for deletion, which is very much frowned upon. Please don't do that again. Nolelover Talk·Contribs 22:57, 10 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Also, please don't remove the deletion tag. Nolelover Talk·Contribs 22:58, 10 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bhubaneswar copyedit[edit]

Dear Srikant,

I have observed that you are quite interested in editing pages related to Odisha. The Bhubaneswar page currently lies in shambles and need heavy copyedits and information. I would request you, if possible try to edit the article to make it in a proper state. Thanks in advance. Amartyabag TALK2ME 08:40, 2 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am writing from WikiProject Barnstar Awarding. As a member of the project, I thought you may be interested in one of our new feature - a live news feed. Formally, any project news was displayed on the project page and any important messages (like this one) had to be idividualy delivered. We now, however, have a new feature - a news feed. The way this works is by the project having a news page (which can be found [[WP:WikiProject Barnstar Awarding/News|here). Users then place the following on their talk page


{{Wikipedia:WikiProject Barnstar Awarding/News}}


News will then be updated on your talk page (or anywhere else you decided to place this template). Please note that the new messages template will not be shown as news is updated.
We hope that you will help support this new feature and will add the template to your user space. Now this feature is in place, messages adressed to the whole WikiProject will no longer be individualy delivered.

Request regarding missed connection[edit]

Hi Odisha1

I attended all three days of WCI. Yesterday I struck up a conversation with a volunteer (who seemed to be involved in) and planned to exchange contact info with them, but it so happened that later on we were not on the same heritage ride as I had anticipated, and we did not find each other afterwards.

We had not exchanged names, but she had said she is from Thane and I had told her I live in Andheri. I am pretty sure that she went on the first heritage ride that started from the venue at around 9 am. I boarded the last one.

Would it be possible for you to help out here? I met a lot of people I would like to keep in touch with, and exchanged mail ids etc. But this one connection was missed in the fray.

I realise that this may appear to be a suspect request. I could propose an acceptable method to go about it if contacting this volunteer is at all possible. I do not plan to stalk or harass this person.

It would be lovely if this can come through. I would have made a post on the Facebook event page or the Wikipedia in Mumbai page, but it seems only a fraction of the attendees/volunteers 'liked' these pages or marked themselves as attending.

(I had posted this on Karthikndr's page at first, but he tells me he was unable to attend the conference)

Wikimedia Stories Project[edit]

Hello,

My name is Victor Grigas, and I'm a storyteller at the Wikimedia foundation. We're telling stories of Wikipedia users, editors, donors, programmers and staff to paint a picture of who uses Wikipedia - for the 2011 fundraiser.

I am in the process of planning a trip to India to gather stories from Indian Wikipedians in face-to-face interviews (possibly on video).

My primary goal is to conduct 15-20 interviews, and hopefully enough of my interviews will make compelling stories that will effectively solicit donations from the public. These stories may also be used for other communication purposes by the foundation.

I found your userpage on a list of prolific Wikipedians and thought I’d reach out to you. Prolific editing is always a good story to tell!

If you are interested in participating, please contact me via my email:

vgrigas@wikimedia.org

Thank you for your time!

Victor
