I have observed that you removed data added by me and suspected me about adding data without research. So, i would like clarify i live there there and posses much more information, so if you have sources with conflicting information i am open for discussion. I added satellite imagery because some idiot was engaging in edit war and wont stop removing data. Aman 17:44, 15 July 2018 (UTC) Guramandeep (talk)

Hey Sarvatra, Thanks for updating the new Air Force commanders. I might need some help with creating the articles for the new commanders (Air Force and Army). Please, let me know if you can help. Adamgerber80 (talk) 18:54, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of Armed Forces Hospitals In India, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Betul and Ghaziabad (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Sushil Chandra moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Sushil Chandra, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Too Many Reverts Abhinandan Varthaman

Hi @Sarvatra: I Checked you reverted my edits on Abhinandan Varthaman's Repatriation section I beleive I gave corrected source and edited his release news with WP:NPOV could you please explain why did you exactly reverted edits ?-- MrZINE | talk 13:21, 1 March 2019 (UTC)

I have done a lot of reverts on that page. Can you please link which specific one you're talking about? —Sarvatra (talk, contribs) 13:24, 1 March 2019 (UTC)

Hey, this was the revert I'm saying -- MrZINE | talk 13:28, 1 March 2019 (UTC)

From what I can see in the news right now, he is yet to return to India. Plus the time of his return isn't necessary to be included in the wiki article. That was my reasoning behind the revert. —Sarvatra (talk, contribs) 13:34, 1 March 2019 (UTC)

Request for comment at commons related to National War Memorial.

I have tagged you in a doubt (HERE) on Commons related to the National War Memorial pictures. Please comment if possible. Regards. DiplomatTesterMan (talk) 15:02, 1 March 2019 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Orphaned non-free image File:Air Marshal Rajesh Kumar, Indian Air Force.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Air Marshal Rajesh Kumar, Indian Air Force.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:23, 5 March 2019 (UTC)

DYK for Nazir Ahmad Wani

On 6 April 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Nazir Ahmad Wani, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Nazir Ahmad Wani, the first Ashoka Chakra recipient from Kashmir (posthumous award ceremony pictured), was a militant before he surrendered and joined the Indian Army? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Nazir Ahmad Wani. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Nazir Ahmad Wani), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Teahouse logo
Hello, Sarvatra! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Otr500 (talk) 00:26, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
(talk page stalker) Otr500, hi! I am afraid that you may have made an error in judgment here; the position of Election Commissioner of India is a constitutional one, and one which has a great deal of prestige and power attached to it. The Election Commission of India is the independent and constitutional body which has the mandate to conduct presidential, vice-presidential, parliamentary, and state legislative elections in India. The role of the commission is somewhat similar to the role of the Federal Election Commission, the Secretary of State, the state secretaries of state, and the state election commissions in the United States, combined; hence, as one might imagine, as one of the three heads of the body responsible for administering and conducting elections in India, an Election Commissioner exercises quite a bit of influence. Also, it is to be noted that an Election Commissioner's service conditions are same as that of a judge of the Supreme Court of India.
In addition, the Central Board of Direct Taxes is the body of the Government of India which collects, among others, the income tax. The chairperson of the aforesaid body hence, has a status analogous to that of a secretary to the Government of India.
In light of the points above, it should be quite clear that Chandra is independently notable and easily qualifies WP:NPOL; vide: some articles created by me, viz., Sunil Arora and Ashok Lavasa.
Notwithstanding the stuff I wrote hereinabove, the draft, in its, current state isn't worthy of being in the mainspace and needs some work; I wrote this screed just to inform you of the reasons as to why Chandra is an independently notable person. 16:03, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
Pinging you, @Otr500:. Regards, SshibumXZ (talk · contribs). 16:08, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
Reply, @SshibumXZ: Thanks for your comments but I feel it possible you should reconsider that I made an error in judgement. Your opinion on this may be because of part of my "special note" about passing. This is related to possibly being passed with a continued severe lack of content being the pseudo part.
Please note in my review: I did not decline the submission "because" the subject was an Election Commissioner or past Chairman of the Central Board of Direct Taxes that I might not have considered notable. I stated "I am not sure" but related that I do know policies and guidelines and my assessment was that the notability of the subject could not be substantiated by the sources. You apparently "specialize" in articles related to India so I will defer to your judgement and opinion as to the notability of the discussed positions.
I never intend to be biased but on new articles but I cannot take so much times as to completely research articles and sources or make edits in attempts to approve them. I perform a search and look at provided sources. In this case the sources provided, of which I feel I gave an accurate assessment, were severely lacking for any article and certainly a BLP. My ability to search will sometimes be biased because of a lack of available and credible hits I receive, and that I can review, but "if" I even think this may be the case I just decline with reasoning. I am in the camp that even what is considered intrinsic or inherent ("presumed") needs sourcing and certainly if contested by comments or tags.
In cases where I do not see clear notability, especially if a draft has been reviewed and declined multiple times with reviewer sources and/or notability issues unresolved, I will reject an article (indicated by a "stop sign") of which I am pretty sure I did not do in this case. I sometimes get daunted, that I may be swinging towards being a verified deletionist, when I randomly review several articles that do not show to have notability, so will "take a step" back to ensure I am not being too restrictive.
I strive to be as accurate on my assessments as possible with a #1 consideration being: "Would a new article survive an AFD", specifically, would I !vote other than keep, understanding that a presumption of notability requires more than just surmising, and that even a stub must have at least enough substance to be more than a dictionary entry or pseudo biography. A BLP does require a higher standard. The end result is that two of us agree that as written (and of course sourced) the draft is not ready for acceptance.
I am now saddened by seeing that you are "semi-retired". I might certainly exploit your knowledge on India related subjects should the need arise. Again, thank you for the comments and if you take interest I hope you can add content and references to result in a survivable article. Have a great day. Otr500 (talk) 18:22, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
Otr500, hi! First of all, sorry for the later reply! Now, my comment was not an inimical aimed at you; you're an accomplished Wikipedian whose experience far dwarfs my own. My comment, rather, was just to give you a brief rundown of how the Indian electoral system works, so that, if you were to encounter an AfC draft like this one again, you'd have some more context to judge the draft; nothing more, nothing less. I am sorry if I didn't make that clear!
I don't specialise in Indian-related topics, i.e., I am not an Indologist, but, yes, I do take special interest in topics such as law and government and I would be more than happy to help should the need of such help arise!
Yes, I am more or less semi-retired because I am preparing for law entrance examinations, so, that does not leave me with much time for Wikipedia. That is the very reason as to why I am not working on Chandra's article, as, I am just focusing on the article of the Fifteenth Finance Commission (perhaps my greatest article creation) and members thereof for now; after I am done with the aforementioned article, and if time permits, I would certainly have a look at Chandra's article!
Again, I am sorry for any ad-hominems I may have intentionally made! Regards, SshibumXZ (talk · contribs). 10:08, 11 May 2019 (UTC)
Thank you very much for the reply and the vote of confidence. I actually didn't take your comments as any ad-hominem (attack or otherwise) and I did not know the political layout so your comments were insightful. Any expertise I have in law and politics centers more around Louisiana and Civil Law. I espouse Constitutionalism but equally support that our country has survived with our Constitution since 1789. The trend of the last several years, that the budget can continually fall into an endless hole of deficit, is troubling. The move for an Article V Convention is growing and if the budget is the only goal, as a Single Subject Amendment, it would be great. A problem is that when special interests get involved the scope and outcome can become unpredictable. Louisiana has an arguable history of illegal politics. The Constitution of Louisiana has been rewritten eleven times but mainly for a specific agenda and most of the time the rest is symbolic. I think "Fifteenth Finance Commission" is indicative of what Wikipedia is all about.
Good luck with your future studies and congratulations, as I am sure you will pass the examinations, and and I offer an advance "welcome back" when you can. Otr500 (talk) 02:04, 12 May 2019 (UTC)
Otr500, first, thank you for your well wishes! They mean a lot, really! And yes, even here in India we regularly get news of your presidents and your Congress ending up in a tussle over the federal budget, purely because of the United States' status as the global hegemon; in the not too distant past, I have also read about Donald Trump imposing a state of emergency over there to fund his border wall, as, he wasn't able to get his budget pass through the Congress; it's also kind of hilarious as an outsider, but, must be annoying as a citizen of the United States. Also, thanks for your comments on 'Fifteenth Finance Commission'! That article took a lot of time to build.
Once again, thanks for your positive comments! And may we cross paths, though in a more positive setting, again! Cheers! Regards, SshibumXZ (talk · contribs). 13:12, 12 May 2019 (UTC)

@Sarvatra:I am glad that you have never heard of it. Because if you knew about it some 10 years ago, you would be in trouble. Just joking. No, it’s NOT A PART OF THE SFF. It is a separate unit. The SFF recruits Tibetians and is just an airborne force. The Mavericks (Special Group) are the Indian equivalent of CIA’s Special Activities Center.— Vaibhavafro💬 10:04, 6 October 2019 (UTC)
Only Sandeep Unnithan had the privilege of knowing about this force BACK IN 1999, just like he was the first to talk about K Missile family and INS Arighat! Coincidence? Lucky guy? I don’t think so.

Image request

Hi. Hope you are doing well. I was wondering if there was any usable image for this former IPS officer Farooq Khan. DTM (talk) 14:37, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

Hi DTM. There is one portrait image on pib which can be used, though it is of low resolution. There's another high resolution image but the image does not look suitable for using here. There's another image at http://jksocialwelfare.nic.in/ , but I'm not sure if GODL-India would be applicable over there. Regards. —Sarvatra (talk, contribs) 10:12, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
Yes, the first one you suggested on PIB will be fine. I totally forgot to use the PIB search option! Thank you! DTM (talk) 12:00, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
