Nepali sculpture

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Nepali sculpture, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.manang.com/nepal/general_information_about_nepal/art_architecture_nepal/sculpture_of_nepal.php.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Chitra Lekha Yadav has been reverted.
Your edit here to Chitra Lekha Yadav was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Chitra-Lekha-Yadav/102570483134785?rf=1522482397982082) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link.

Speedy deletion declined: Divinfavor

Hello Tulsi Bhagat, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Divinfavor, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: There is sufficient context to identify the subject of the article. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. -- GB fan 12:24, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of WHNC

I just declined your speedy deletion nomination of WHNC. The article as it stood when you tagged it was probably speedy deletable. The problem is that the article had been vandalized. When you go to an article you should always check the history of the article to see if the article had been vandalized. If it has, instead of nominating the article for deletion, you should fix the article. -- GB fan 19:15, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

Why revert?

I am creating anew article for the UNESCO site Armenian Monastic Ensembles of Iran. What is the problem?Nvvchar. 10:26, 25 November 2015 (UTC)

@Nvvchar: Nothing is problem there. Just move forward, It has no content as null so that i've reverted. If you want to create then you may processed, remove the content and add the suitable information per title. Regards, Tulsi Bhagat (Talk) 12:38, 25 November 2015 (UTC)
It takes time to add text. and it is going to be a long article as it would cover three heritage sites. I would appreciate if you pl revert it back. Thanks.--Nvvchar. 13:05, 25 November 2015 (UTC)
If i'll revert then it will be again empty page. Please, add suitable information there. No, need to revert. -- Tulsi Bhagat (Talk) 13:42, 25 November 2015 (UTC)

Invitation from Wikipedia Asian Month 2016

Thanks for partipating Wikipedia Asian Month last year, and I hope you enjoy it. Last year, more than 7,000 articles contribute to Wikipedia in 43 languages in Wikipedia Asian Month, making us one of the largest event on Wikipedia. We will organize this event again in upcoming November, and would like to invite you join us again.

This year, we are lowering down the standards that you only need to create 4 (Four) articles to receive a postcard (new design), and articles only need to be more than 3,000 bytes and 300 words. We are also improving our postcard sending process, e.g. making the postcards right now, and collecting the address after the event ends without waiting other languges.

Wikipedians who create the most articles on each Wikipedia will be honored as "Wikipedia Asian Ambassadors". We will send you both digital copy, and a paper copy of the Ambassador certificate.

Thank you for considering! --AddisWang (talk)

Wikipedia Asian Month 2017: Invitation to Participate

Hello! Last year, you signed up to participate in Wikipedia Asian Month (WAM) 2016 on the English Wikipedia. The event was an international success, with hundreds of editors creating thousands of articles on Asian topics across dozens of different language versions of Wikipedia.

I'd like to invite you to join us for Wikipedia Asian Month 2017, which once again lasts through the month of November. The goal is for users to create new articles on Asian-related content, each at least 3,000 bytes and 300 words in length. Editors who create at least four articles will receive a Wikipedia Asian Month postcard!

Also be sure to check out the Wikipedia Asian Art Month affiliate event - creating articles on Asian art topics can get you a Metropolitan Museum of Art postcard!

Information icon

Hello Tulsi Bhagat. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to Code for Nepal, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat SEO.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Tulsi Bhagat. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Tulsi Bhagat|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. Usedtobecool TALK ✨ 17:21, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

@Usedtobecool: Hello, Are you stalking me? FYI, no one is paying me (neither directly nor indirectly) for creating any article. I am here because i feel [edit]ing wiki is fun and also to make Jimmy's imaginary world a reality. Code for Nepal has been doing various projects for digitizing Nepal, and I am open-source and free knowledge enthusiast. My aim is to build a free knowledge Nepal. If it matters, Open Knowledge For All would be subject to COI for me. Kind regards, — Tulsi Bhagat (contribs | talk) 17:39, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
Tulsi Bhagat, I looked over your creations and sourcing because of the disagreement we had on RS/notability on the recent AFDs, whatever it may be named, I have no intention of making a habit of it. On the contrary, having recently come to know of you, I am a great admirer of your contributions to Wikimedia.
To be clear, are you saying you don't work for Code for Nepal? Because my BEFORE indicated otherwise. Usedtobecool TALK ✨ 18:02, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
@Usedtobecool: Let me clear you, I am an enthusiastic person and I am taking every seconds a new step to learn/explore new things new environment. In my journey, I came to know about Code for Nepal and I've joined it as a volunteer same as i am a volunteer here on Wikipedia. To be completely honest, I am not being paid in any way, and have written this article without any prompt from anyone. Please do the necessary as you feel it is required. I am sure that you are more experienced than me here on enwiki. I would love to learn new things from you too. Thank you for messaging me! Kind regards, — Tulsi Bhagat (contribs | talk) 18:45, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
Tulsi Bhagat, WP:PAID is clear.
Interns, on-loan staff, and unpaid workers, including volunteers, are deemed to be employees. If they are directed or expected to edit Wikipedia as part of their tasks, they must make a paid-contribution disclosure.
It would be impractical to get into the nitty-gritties of it all. We do not act under procedures as that of real-world official investigative organisations. You are an intern at an organisation that you are writing about. That makes you a paid editor. You haven't disclosed that on your userpage, your edit summaries or the article's talk page, that means you are in violation of the Wikimedia Terms of Use. I suggest you give a thorough read to WP:PAID and make necessary disclosures. To be on the safe side, also suggest reading WP:COI and making disclosures if any, on any other contributions you might have made here. And continuing to comply with both PAID and COI policies in all your future contributions. In the meantime, here are some simple points to keep in mind:
  • Always use WP:AFC to create articles on subjects with which you have a COI.
  • Never mark articles that you have a COI with as reviewed. It's explicitly mentioned at WP:PAID, and is also one of the criteria for revocation of NPR rights.
  • Always use WP:Edit Requests to suggest changes to articles that you have a COI with.
Regards! Usedtobecool TALK ✨ 19:11, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
I'd be happy to try and answer any further questions you might have, although I am myself just learning to walk the Wikipedia PAG maze. Alternatively, the Teahouse or the {{help}} template are very useful for guidance. Cheers! Usedtobecool TALK ✨ 19:18, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
Usedtobecool WP:PAID refers to people who are writing the article as part of their being an employee. Volunteering with them, and making an article out of ones own volition is a conflict of interest but is not a direct violation of WP:PAID. Vermont (talk) 20:12, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
Vermont, I agree that such would be the case, technically, and in spirit, and AGF might be enough if the disclosure were upfront. Since it wasn't, PAID still applies because we can't verify that the editor isn't getting directly/indirectly paid or editing wikipedia is/n't a part of their job description.
In this case, considering Mr. Bhagat's reputation across Wikimedia, I am electing to simply take his word for it, and am satisfied with the COI disclosure on the article's talk page. I am gonna go over the sources, trim the article and remove the PAID tag from the article, although my brief perusal of the sources suggests it doesn't meet GNG, so I don't know what I'm gonna do if that turns out to be the case. Having to go to AFD would be a tragedy after all this. Cheers y'all! Usedtobecool TALK ✨ 04:03, 2 November 2019 (UTC)

New Page Review newsletter November 2019

Hello Tulsi,

This newsletter comes a little earlier than usual because the backlog is rising again and the holidays are coming very soon.

Getting the queue to 0

There are now 814 holders of the New Page Reviewer flag! Most of you requested the user right to be able to do something about the huge backlog but it's still roughly less than 10% doing 90% of the work. Now it's time for action.
Exactly one year ago there were 'only' 3,650 unreviewed articles, now we will soon be approaching 7,000 despite the growing number of requests for the NPR user right. If each reviewer soon does only 2 reviews a day over five days, the backlog will be down to zero and the daily input can then be processed by every reviewer doing only 1 review every 2 days - that's only a few minutes work on the bus on the way to the office or to class! Let's get this over and done with in time to relax for the holidays.
Want to join? Consider adding the NPP Pledge userbox.
Our next newsletter will announce the winners of some really cool awards.

Coordinator

Admin Barkeep49 has been officially invested as NPP/NPR coordinator by a unanimous consensus of the community. This is a complex role and he will need all the help he can get from other experienced reviewers.

This month's refresher course

Paid editing is still causing headaches for even our most experienced reviewers: This official Wikipedia article will be an eye-opener to anyone who joined Wikipedia or obtained the NPR right since 2015. See The Hallmarks to know exactly what to look for and take time to examine all the sources.

Tools
  • It is now possible to select new pages by date range. This was requested by reviewers who want to patrol from the middle of the list.
  • It is now also possible for accredited reviewers to put any article back into the New Pages Feed for re-review. The link is under 'Tools' in the side bar.
Reviewer Feedback

Would you like feedback on your reviews? Are you an experienced reviewer who can give feedback to other reviewers? If so there are two new feedback pilot programs. New Reviewer mentorship will match newer reviewers with an experienced reviewer with a new reviewer. The other program will be an occasional peer review cohort for moderate or experienced reviewers to give feedback to each other. The first cohort will launch November 13.

Second set of eyes
  • Not only are New Page Reviewers the guardians of quality of new articles, they are also in a position to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged for deletion and maintenance and that new authors are not being bitten. This is an important feature of your work, especially while some routine tagging for deletion can still be carried out by non NPR holders and inexperienced users. Read about it at the Monitoring the system section in the tutorial. If you come across such editors doing good work, don't hesitate to encourage them to apply for NPR.
  • Do be sure to have our talk page on your watchlist. There are often items that require reviewers' special attention, such as to watch out for pages by known socks or disruptive editors, technical issues and new developments, and of course to provide advice for other reviewers.
Arbitration Committee

The annual ArbCom election will be coming up soon. All eligible users will be invited to vote. While not directly concerned with NPR, Arbcom cases often lead back to notability and deletion issues and/or actions by holders of advanced user rights.

Community Wish list

There is to be no wish list for WMF encyclopedias this year. We thank Community Tech for their hard work addressing our long list of requirements which somewhat overwhelmed them last year, and we look forward to a successful completion.

Reviewer of the Year

This year's Reviewer of the Year is Rosguill. Having gotten the reviewer PERM in August 2018, they have been a regular reviewer of articles and redirects, been an active participant in the NPP community, and has been the driving force for the emerging NPP Source Guide that will help reviewers better evaluate sourcing and notability in many countries for which it has historically been difficult.

Special commendation again goes to Onel5969 who ends the year as one of our most prolific reviewers for the second consecutive year. Thanks also to Boleyn and JTtheOG who have been in the top 5 for the last two years as well.

Several newer editors have done a lot of work with CAPTAIN MEDUSA and DannyS712 (who has also written bots which have patrolled thousands of redirects) being new reviewers since this time last year.

Thanks to them and to everyone reading this who has participated in New Page Patrol this year.

Redirect autopatrol

A recent Request for Comment on creating a new redirect autopatrol pseduo-permission was closed early. New Page Reviewers are now able to nominate editors who have an established track record creating uncontroversial redirects. At the individual discretion of any administrator or after 24 hours and a consensus of at least 3 New Page Reviewers an editor may be added to a list of users whose redirects will be patrolled automatically by DannyS712 bot III.

Source Guide Discussion

Set to launch early in the new year is our first New Page Patrol Source Guide discussion. These discussions are designed to solicit input on sources in places and topic areas that might otherwise be harder for reviewers to evaluate. The hope is that this will allow us to improve the accuracy of our patrols for articles using these sources (and/or give us places to perform a WP:BEFORE prior to nominating for deletion). Please watch the New Page Patrol talk page for more information.

This month's refresher course

While New Page Reviewers are an experienced set of editors, we all benefit from an occasional review. This month consider refreshing yourself on Wikipedia:Notability (geographic features). Also consider how we can take the time for quality in this area. For instance, sources to verify human settlements, which are presumed notable, can often be found in seconds. This lets us avoid the (ugly) 'Needs more refs' tag.
