AIV report of Igcar.fan

You reported Igcar.fan to WP:AIV. Generally users can only be blocked after they have recieved a warning which mentions they may be blocked and they continue to do so. Since this user appears to be attempting to discuss the issue on Talk:IGCAR, I have left them a sterner warning instead of a block. If they continue to insert their commentary into the article, you may re-report them. —dgies^t_c 06:27, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Igcar.fan

It has taken some time for me to get the names of people who resigned. You may block my editing rights, but the fact of the matter is that whatever I said is true. You may do this to satisfy your bosses @ IGCAR, but when you resign, you also will have this urge to sanitize the place.

Good luck with your career Srikanth!

Source added- a tertiary source

Hi,

One person has added a tertiary source Ahobila Mutt in the Iyengar article. The source was found on two other sources not mentioned in the wiki article Ahobila Mutt. But it is a credible source. Please do not delete it. Thanks. Svr014 (talk) 20:10, 24 June 2009 (UTC) Chicago, Illinois, USA.

Please undo the change you made

Srikanth,

Please undo the change you made to the article Iyengar. It is authentic in my opinion and I sincerely believe seeing those statements regarding the different racial origins of Vadakalai and Thenkalai Iyengars in a website many weeks ago. I am not able to recall the site now. Can you please look over various sources on the internet that talk about the racial origins of Iyengars? Awaiting your reply. Svr014 (talk) 15:18, 25 June 2009 (UTC) Chicago, Illinois, USA.

Polite Reminder, please respond

Please undo the change you made to the article Iyengar. This is a polite reminder, please respond.

WikMeetup Bangalore 3

WikMeetup Bangalore is scheduled for Sunday, 5 July, 2009 4:30 PM - 6:00 PM and I have emailed you with more details. Please ping me if you require any more information. Hoping to meet you on the meetup day. Take care -- Tinu Cherian - 08:52, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Rules in general, and info about Vadakalai Iyengars and Vadama Iyers

Please do not remove material with references attached to them. I have reverted the edit you made as you had removed the material which had sources. Please note that Vadakalai Iyengars and Vadama Iyers have some gothras in common and both groups emphasize sanskrit literature while doing almost all prayers. These two groups tend to have overlapping lineage in the brahminical tradition. Also, please note that Aryan migration started from North India to all the states in the South which include Kerala. Many present-day brahmins who live in Tamil Nadu have migrated from Kerala. I myself had talked with some Vadakalai Iyengars who have lived in Kerala for many decades. If you remove the material with sources again, you will be blocked on WP for several weeks. Also, read the article on deductive reasoning. Now you will understand the articles on Vadama Iyer and Vadakalai Iyengar better. Svr014 (talk) 14:48, 2 July 2009 (UTC) Chicago, Illinois, USA.

Replied. User:Svr014 is a sockpuppet of blocked User:Vyaghradhataki. Same POV, same unsourced claims.-The Enforcer_{Office of the secret service} 13:51, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

I disagree. I am a new user and am NOT a sockpuppet. Talk to any admin that knows my account history well. Ravi, you will be blocked for incivility if you make abyssmal claims about me. Again, I am a new user and I do not know who Vyaghradhataki was. Svr014 (talk) 15:40, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

Oh yeah, accusing someone of sockpuppetry is more incivil than calling some a bud, labelling valuable contributions as "rubbish" and questioning someone's caste.-The Enforcer_{Office of the secret service} 13:26, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Ravichandar84, I apologize for not being able to communicate my responses to your posts. Please accept my sincere apology. I used the word bud in the pretext that you may be 'immature'. This word does not have any derogatory meaning. Also, please make sure that the sources you select for articles do not contain any typos (errors). I never meant any offense to any editor like you and me. I do not want to carry the can as there is ambiguity in general on some articles on WP. I respect your contributions and I admire some contributions. Also, please read http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Wikipedia:Please_do_not_bite_the_newcomers. This article clearly mentions editors not to use disparaging names like sockpuppet or meatpuppet at newcomers. Hope you will find it useful. Again, I request you to understand me and please do not be angry at me. Thanks Svr014 (talk) 17:22, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

Please note that I did not question somebody's religion, caste, creed, or sexual orientation in a bad manner. I used the words "Just out of curiosity", and "If" in my posts. Please try to understand what these words mean in English language. I respect all editors at WP which include Indian editors. I am new to Indian articles on WP. I learn information from Tamilians on articles about Iyer and Iyengar as they would know more about these groups. Please assume good faith in my posts, please read WP:AGF. I wish you well. I mean well for you, Srikanth and other editors. I am a newbie and have decided to retire. Do not know when I will be back. Good luck in your editing. God bless the world! Thanks. Svr014 (talk) 17:29, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

Re:Thiruvallur district taluk

I feel that taluk articles are definitely eeded. We cannot have all the stats in the ones for district articles. Besides, there has been a great deal of confusion due to district level heads being mentioned in articles related to the principal city in the district, etc. I feel that the available info should be properly disseminated.-The Enforcer_{Office of the secret service} 10:03, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Aashayein foundation

Hi,

I am Shashank, writer of the article for Aashayein foundation. While looking at the logs I found that you have added the COI "Conflict Of Interest" tag at the top of the article. Can you tell me what is the COI regarding this article?

Thanks, Shashank —Preceding unsigned comment added by Shashanksoni13 (talk • contribs) 22:09, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Hi Shashank, Please read WP:COI. I felt that the article's tone was promotional and was more of advertisement. I felt you had an interest in promoting it and hence tagged COI on Aashayein foundation. Please read WP:PROMOTION and WP:NOT. Other than that, if you could make references inline and change the tone to be WP:NPOV, it would be great. Thanks Srikanth (speak) 05:33, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your message Sri. I have noted all your suggestions. Right now I am middle of a project, that's the reason i am not able to go through all the links properly. One day I searched for Srivilliputtur and really I felt sad to see very little info on that page. That's why i put in some info immediately.

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 17:41, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

WikiProject India Newsletter Volume V, Issue no. 1 - (June 2010)

Project News WP:IND Newsletter is back! It's been nearly a year since the last edition, but we hope to bring out issues on a more regular basis now. The India Wikiproject was set up to increasing coverage of India-related topics on Wikipedia, and over the past few months the focus has been on improving article quality. A number of the project's featured articles underwent featured article reviews over the past year. Of these, Darjeeling and Flag of India survived the review process, while the rest were demoted. During the same period, Gangtok, Harbhajan Singh, Darjeeling and Mysore were featured on the main page respectively on August 20, September 17, November 6 and December 29, 2009. Meanwhile, articles on topics as diverse as Political history of Mysore and Coorg (1565–1760), Marwari horse and Iravan were promoted as featured articles, and respectively appeared on the main page on March 25, May 17 and May 28, 2010. Consequently, the number of FA-class articles under the project's scope dropped from 67 in August 2009 to 63 in June 2010. The number of good articles, however, saw a more than 40% increase, from 91 to 130 during the same period, while the number of featured lists saw a 33% increase from 12 to 16. Due to the recent policy changes regarding unreferenced Biographies of Living People (BLPs), an effort was started in January 2010 to source all unreferenced BLPs coming under Wikiproject India. 1200 such articles were identified initially and more were added to the list later. Due to the sourcing effort, the number of Indian unreferenced BLPs is down to 565 currently. During February-April 2010, There was a large scale disruption of Kerala related articles by a Thrissur based IP vandal. Editing from a dynamic IP BSNL connection, the vandal changed dates of birth, death and ages of a number of Malayalam and Tamil film actors. Later he added a few international biographies to his list. He also marked some living people like Arvind Swamy as dead. A month long range block was imposed on his IP range two times and each time he came back to vandalise dates once the block expired. Currently the range has been blocked for three months till September 11, 2010. What's New? Three members of the project, Abecedare, Tinu Cherian and SpacemanSpiff received their sysop mops in October-December 2009. Congratulations! This picture, shot in India, won the Commons:Picture of the Year contest 2009. Translations of the description in Indian languages are solicited. Wikipedians in Bangalore have been organising periodic meetups over the past year, in collaboration with the Centre for Internet and Society. The next meetup is scheduled for July 18, 2010. Indian and other Wikipedians from all Wikipedias in various languages are welcome to attend.

Current proposals and discussions Please add Wikipedia talk:Noticeboard for India-related topics to your watchlist in order to stay updated with the latest discussions regarding various aspects of the project. A discussion is underway here to reach a consensus regarding the use of Indian number names (lakh, crore etc.) in Wikipedia articles. Please participate and add your comments. Join the effort to source and save unreferenced Indian BLPs. Some unintended vandalism is going on at the Assamese Wikipedia by the sole active editor. This is a request for Assamese-conversant Wikipedians to help resolve the issue. A discussion is in progress here in order to determine whether non-Western (including Indian) forms of classical music should be referred to by the nomenclature of art music instead of classical music. Please participate and add your comments. Watchlist the Articles for Deletions page for India related discussions. Opinions from more Indian Wikipedians are required in many of the discussions. The World Classical Tamil Conference 2010 is at present underway in Coimbatore, and the Tamil Wikipedia is actively involved at the event. A detailed report will follow in the next issue. Wikimania 2010 is happening in Poland from July 7-11. Indian Wikipedians attending include Gurubrahma, Shiju Alex, Ravidreams , Santhosh Thottingal, Tinu Cherian, WMF Board member Bishakha Datta and Advisory Board member Achal Prabala. We wish them all the best! More on their experiences in the next issue. If you've just joined, add your name to the Members section of WikiProject India. You'll get a mention in the next issue of the Newsletter and get it delivered as desired. Also, please include your own promotions and awards in future issues. Don't be shy! Lastly, this is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue (Issue 2 – (July 2010)). Any and all contributions are welcome.

Hi Srikanth,
I have just posted an article titled National Waterways 4. The article is one among the Six National Waterways in India. Whereas articles for 4 other National Waterways are yet to be created.

Bangalore presentation

Hi there, I stumbled across this presentation, and instantly thought about the Outreach projects; you might like to get involved there. Cheers,  Chzz  ►  13:28, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

I put a pointer to your pending presentation at the new Outer Space announcements page on outreach wiki. Hope you don't mind. If you get a chance, it'd be great to document your presentation in more detail, so it could be a useful starting point for other people who want to do similar things.--ragesoss (WMF) (talk) 13:52, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the pointer Chzz, will explore what I could do there :) Sageross, would write a blog post / note after the presentation and link it there Thanks again. Srikanth (Logic) 07:19, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

Awesome! Thanks. --Sage Ross - Online Faciliator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 17:38, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

Sounds groovy. Not sure what, if anything, I can do to help; just I thought it apposite to hook this into Outreach, because it fits the remit. Best of luck w/ the presentation; looks interesting and fun.  Chzz  ►  17:43, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

The presentation went along really well, You could find pictures here. There were few people interested in follow ups and we were glad to get mails like this and expect few more people at Bangalore meetups. We had discussion about editing interface usability experience,WP:NPOV,outreach among many other things. I will write a detailed post on this and will update here. Thanks! Srikanth (Logic) 07:11, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

Sounds great. If, in follow-up, any of them want help with any aspect of editing English Wikipedia, I highly recommend the live help. Cheers,  Chzz  ►  08:53, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

Im still not sure about the venue.Can you tell me the precise location.Im a Class X student residing in Anna Nagar.

Since im just a Class X student i can't be of much help being a volunteer.But i can help you with some details if you wish me to do so.Any help needed, you can try messaging me.Oh yes, i will try to help.But has the venue already been finlalised?Some halls across Pondy Bazaar and Inner Ring Road are clean and are located in focal points of the city.I know Tidel Park is'nt a bad idea but commuting will be a challenge and im not very sure whether i can foresake my school activities at the same time.But consider mass opinion about deciding the venue because im not the only chennaiite in wikipedia.Plus, Im still unsure of participting.

WikiProject India Newsletter Volume V, Issue no. 2 - November 2010

English WikiProject News After a missed issue, the WP:IND newsletter is back on track to being a regular bimonthly feature. The Indian WikiProject has seen plenty of online and off-line action, both in English as well as other Indian languages, and we now have a bigger, better format that intends to feature content and news from the English as well as other Indian language Wikipedias. Reaching out to Indians has been the theme of the Indian Wikiproject over the past couple of months, aiming to involve a greater number of Indians in editing both the English and Indian language Wikipedias. To this end, efforts to set up the Indian chapter of Wikimedia have moved into their final stages, and registration of the society is currently pending. An effort is underway to push for "WikiMarathons" at meetups, where attendees will be encouraged to edit the English and/or Indian language Wikipedias. This is intended to popularise Wikipedia editing among the general public. In addition, a bot to post DYK's from the Indian Wikiproject to Twitter was created and launched by User:Logicwiki. What's New? Regrettably, the number of Featured Articles has dropped from 63 in June to 58 at the end of October 2010. Several FAs came up for review and were delisted, while Fundamental Rights, Directive Principles and Fundamental Duties of India was saved. Meanwhile, Chalukya Dynasty appeared on the main page on July 9, 2010. Hearteningly, the number of Good Articles increased from 130 to 136 during the same period, while the number of Featured Lists remained constant at 16. The source code for the Article Alert Bot is now available and the bot itself is expected to be up and running very shortly. This means that article alerts for the Indian Wikiproject will again be available, enabling editors to easily keep track of developments in respect of reviews, nominations, deletions etc. The date change vandal mentioned briefly in the previous issue made a reappearance when the range block on his IP range expired in September. Consequently the block was extended till September 2011. In October there was a heated discussion in the India project noticeboard regarding the copyright status of the Indian party symbols. The discussion was triggered by the deletion of Wiki San Roze's party symbol images by Hammersoft as copyright violations. No resolution was reached, partly because of our inability to explain to Hammersoft how election symbols in India differ from party logos. Comments are requested from anyone with a background in Indian copyright law to clarify this issue.

News from Indian-language Wikipedias The Bengali Wikisource, which contains the literary works of many prominent writers of Bengali language including Rabindranath Tagore, has crossed the 5,000 pages milestone. According to List of Wikisource page, Bengali Wikisource is now at rank 21 among 56 Wikisource based on number of content pages. The Tamil Wikipedia stall at the World Classical Tamil Conference 2010 in Coimbatore in June 2010. The uploading of Tamil technical words donated by Tamil Virtual University to the Tamil Wiktionary was completed in October. The words were donated by the Government of Tamil Nadu due to lobbying efforts by Tamil Wikipedians during the runup to the World Classical Tamil Conference 2010 (WCTC) in June. Nearly 70,000 words were uploaded increasing the word count in Tamil Wiktionary from 1,20,000+ to 1,90,000+. This has brought Tamil to the 10th place (from 17) in the list of largest wiktionaries and has earned it a place in the Wiktionary front page logo. In addition, Tamil Wikipedians set up a stall at the WCTC and introduced Tamil Wiki projects to people from all walks of life. Jimmy Wales introduces the Malayalam Wikipedia CD of 500 selected articles during his key note address at Wikimania 2010 at Gdansk. The Hindi Wikipedia and its sister wiki projects migrated to the new vector interface on September 1, 2010. In addition, Hindi is the first (and so far the only) Indian language to be incorporated into the WikiBhasha translation and contribution toolkit developed by Microsoft Research. Malayalam wikimedian Santhosh Thottingal has developed a software (Wiki2CD) for the creation of the Malayalam Wikipedia CD, which was launched in 2010. In addition, Santosh, along with fellow Malayalam wikimedian Shiju Alex coordinated a panel discussion at Wikimania 2010 on creation of offline Wiki content.

Community news The first meetup in Delhi on 22 September 2010. Mumbai and Delhi held their first meetups in September, where Wikimedia Board members Barry Newstead and Bishakha Datta met up with Wikipedians and other interested members of the public in these cities. A month later, Hyderabad also held its first meetup. Arun Ram, Shiju Alex and Barry Newstead releasing the Wikimedia India community newsletter at the nineteenth Bangalore meetup on 24 September 2010. Wikipedians in Bangalore continued their tradition of meeting up regularly at the Centre for Internet and Society, with the nineteenth meetup in September featuring Barry and Bishaka as attendees, and marking the release of the community newsletter. Along with Delhi and Mumbai, Bangalore is reported to be one of the three cities in contention for the Indian office of the Wikipedia Foundation. Jimmy Wales speech at the Mumbai Wikipedia Meetup #3 on 31 October 2010. Intro by User:Bishdatta & User:Arunram. (Recorded by User:AshLin.) Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales had an interaction with Wikipedians followed by a presentation to members of the public at the third Wikipedia meetup in Mumbai on October 31, 2010. The first Wikimarathon, where Wikipedians and members of the public were encouraged to contribute to Wikimedia projects onsite, was held simultaneously at the meetups in Bangalore and Chennai on November 14, 2010. Wikipedians in Delhi also held a meetup the same day. The Malayalam Wikipedia held several academies in different parts of Kerala over the past few months. Wikimedia Foundation board member Bishakha Datta and Indian Wikipedian Srinivas Gunta co-authored a panel presentation at Wikimania 2010 on the Wikimedia Asia Project.

Re:Mapsofindia

sounds like a good idea. I've been reverting linkspam over the past few days and one user (User:Mapsofindia1) has already received a ban for this. Alternatively, we could get in touch with MoI and request that they freely license their maps on Commons, whereupon they could be used in WP :-) What say? Regards, SBC-YPR (talk) 14:15, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

LOL. All the excessive vandalism has addled my brain :D Also, most of the affected articles seem to either be transport-related articles or Indian city pages. Perhaps a category-wise cleanup might help. Regards, SBC-YPR (talk) 16:44, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

Wikimedia Stories Project

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

About me: I have been a Wikipedia editor since 2005, and have a background in film, video and audio. My userpage can be found here: http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/User:Victorgrigas

Arcot Road

Heya, Logic, I moved Arcot Road to State Highway 113 (Tamil Nadu) yesterday. Is it fine, or should it be renamed back to the old name? --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 15:36, 16 May 2012 (UTC)

Should be the other way round. Arcot Road is more known than SH113. Srikanth (Logic) 04:47, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Help needed for a citation

At Academi#Non-Iraq_services, after the line, "The Obama administration awarded Academi a $250 million contract to work for the U.S. State Department and the Central Intelligence Agency in Afghanistan.", a citation is provided [(http://www.thenation.com/blog/36756/blackwaters-new-sugar-daddy-obama-administration)]. It is from a widely read magazine's online blog written by a commentator with ~50000 followers. Even though the statement is not exactly collaborated in the blog article, please suggest if such a reference can be used on wikipedia at all, as personal blogs are generally not allowed on wikipedia. Thanks! Anir1uph (talk) 15:18, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
