Welcome!

edit

Hi SivaKumar, and a warm welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you have enjoyed editing as much as I did so far and decide to stay. Unfamiliar with the features and workings of Wikipedia? Don't fret! Be Bold! Here's some good links for your reference and that'll get you started in no time!

Most Wikipedians would prefer to just work on articles of their own interest. But if you have some free time to spare, here are some open tasks that you may want to help out :

 
  • RC Patrol - Keeping a lookout for vandalism.
  • Cleanup - Help make unreadable articles readable.
  • Requests - Wanted on WP, but hasn't been created.
  • Merge - Combining duplicate articles into one.
  • Wikiprojects - So many to join, so many to choose from...Take your pick!

Oh yes, don't forget to sign when you write on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: ~~~~. This will automatically add your name and the time after your comments. And finally, if you have any questions or doubts, don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Once again, welcome! =)

Thanks a ton

This is to thank you for starting the article on Nitish Kumar. Keep up the good work. --Gurubrahma 07:21, 27 November 2005 (UTC)Reply

I work on a shared comp on which I don't have admin privileges and hence am not able to install telugu font. User:Vyzasatya is an admin on telugu wiki and AFIK, he is taking care of the problem. --Gurubrahma 11:02, 27 November 2005 (UTC)Reply

Kongu

edit

Hi Siva. I've made Kongu a disambiguation page. See that and create Kongu (region). You can read how I did this at Wikipedia:Disambiguation. We need to translate this help page for the Tamil wiki also. -- Sundar \talk \contribs 04:41, 2 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Bot

edit

Hi Siva. I've simply downloaded the existing bot and running it for Tamil wiki. Hereafter, we only need to add interwiki links to the en wiki from ta wiki. The bot will periodically create reciprocal links. See m:Interwiki.py for more details. It's a python-based bot. -- Sundar \talk \contribs 08:31, 7 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Chennai

edit

Hi Siva. The manual of style doesn't let us have an interwiki link there. However, people would still notice the interwiki link on the left as it is starred. -- Sundar \talk \contribs 05:50, 21 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Even in the article space, it's kind of questionable. But, let's wait for someone else to remove the link, if the person finds it bad. No need to revert your edit done in good faith. -- Sundar \talk \contribs 06:07, 21 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Request,Nomination for removal of Khalistan article

edit

Hello Sir I'm nominating this page for deletion because it is written with a point of view , excessive use of unreliable sources.and the title "Khalistan" is wrong for the topic because "Khalistan" does not exist,lack of support from resident Punjabi's and Sikhs in India, but there was a "Movement for Khalistan" and that is the right title for the topic, and i think this whole article "a new name" should be rewritten with the help of people from sikh community "in" India and other Indians, because this topic is related to politics/people of India.We all should understand Khalistan is not a political entity and having a article is not justified, Microsoft Encarta and Britannic encyclopedia don't have an article known as "Khalistan" but they do have articles on the movement that took place decades back, and i think there are also copyright issues involved with this article because big parts of this article are written on other peoples research. Many reliable sources are used to show "one side" of their view on the topic, there are also indications that organisations banned by US and EU are involved in providing their research on the movement.I am a strong supporter to have a stub on this topic , but im afraid that such articles on wikipedia have become mouthpieces for organisation which are known for disrupting peace (assassination of one of india's prime minister, twin bomb blast in New Delhi on the eve of Diwali) in Indian sub continent. This article requires your attention , please help. Anmol.2k4 18:53, 24 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Don't you think that the individual month names would be better served as redirects to the main article, since they're rather short? illspirit|talk 05:24, 18 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

No, it retries many times in the current code and fails after that. I don't know enough Python to meddle with thatMay be I should write one myself in Perl. :) -- Sundar \talk \contribs 11:21, 7 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

No content in Category:Railway stations in Tamilnadu

edit
 

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:Railway stations in Tamilnadu, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

(CSD C1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Category:Railway stations in Tamilnadu, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.
