C-class articles for WP INDIA

edit

Hi! As you are a volunteer at Wikipedia:WikiProject India/Assessment, I'm notifying you that there is a discussion on the Indian noticeboard on the introduction of C-class articles for WP India assessment. Please weigh in at Wikipedia talk:Noticeboard for India-related topics#C class articles. Thanks! =Nichalp «Talk»= 08:31, 2 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

  • No problem; it sounds like you and I have that in common in terms of busy-ness. I'm well thank you. I hope you are too? I just realised this notice was here when I came to reply so thought I'd note that I too would appreciate your views on the C-class matter.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Chang.gif)

edit

  Thanks for uploading Image:Chang.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:44, 9 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Re:Kalimpong FARC

edit

Nice to see you back. Yes, I saw book references in the article below but I think they would hold true even now. So need not worry about them. For some information which was very hard to find elsewhere I found it on Gorkhapedia. I had opened a thread on WT:IND asking about Gorkhapedia. I think we can pick some non-controvertial information from there too. We will try our best. --GPPande talk! 07:37, 9 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Re: Kalimpong

My primary source was this: Holidaying in Sikkim and Bhutan – published by Nest and Wings – ISBN 81-87592-07-9 Looks like we have to do another Gangtok. =Nichalp «Talk»= 19:28, 9 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Yes, I do, but would have to search. Can't remember where I kept it. PS Could you archive this page? It takes a long time to load. =Nichalp «Talk»= 19:52, 9 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

GAN

edit

Hi Dwaipayanc - How's everything? I know you are on break but I thought I'd let you know that I've nominated Chak De India for WP:GAN. To do so, I had to significantly reduce the plot which was about 1000 words over the normal limit of 900 words. I think that this is potentially both a GA and FA article. -Classicfilms (talk) 20:08, 28 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

All is well, just going back to some articles that seem to have potential. I understand about time, no pressure...When you do have a moment, if you could tell me what the lead needs to make it stronger, I would appreciate it. Good to hear from you, -Classicfilms (talk) 21:23, 28 December 2008 (UTC)Reply
Thanks!! Let me think about these point and I'll let you know when I've revised the intro. -Classicfilms (talk) 21:52, 28 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

More on Chak De

edit

I re-wrote the lead. When you have a free moment, could you take a look? Make any changes that you feel are necessary or let me know on my talk page what can be improved. Thanks so much, -Classicfilms (talk) 01:45, 29 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Ok, I made the changes. Take a look and let me know what you think. Also, the article is seriously in need of free images but I can't seem to find any - not even of SRK. If you have thoughts or ideas, let me know. -Classicfilms (talk) 02:30, 29 December 2008 (UTC)Reply


  The Original Barnstar
A long overdue Barnstar for the many hours of advice and tips you have given towards the improvement of Bollywood articles. Much appreciated Dwaipayanc! - Classicfilms (talk) 16:23, 29 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Images etc.

edit

You're welcome!! The barnstar is long overdue and well deserved...

Thanks for the tip about images. Perhaps I can ask you, when you have a chance, to upload the images to the commons? I don't mind doing all of the tweaks etc. to the article (and I really appreciate your help in this area...) but it would be great to have the help of other editors in terms of uploading images - thanks for the tip though about IndiaFM, that is very helpful to know about. I did add a few free images to the article, which are somewhat related to the topic though not the best - it would be great to see more Bollywood film project editors work on the article in such areas as images and adding further information... Though I know you are technically on break at the moment so any help you can give is appreciated!! Thanks, -Classicfilms (talk) 22:44, 29 December 2008 (UTC)Reply
