You might get help here if you explain which NCC and IMA you are takling about. Alternatively, I suspect, based on your question, that you found one of our over 6 million articles and thought we were affiliated in some way with that subject. Please note that you are at Wikipedia, the free online encyclopedia that anyone can edit, and this page is for asking questions related to using or contributing to Wikipedia itself. Thus, we have no special knowledge about the subject of your question. You can, however, search our vast catalogue of articles by typing a subject into the search field on the upper right side of your screen. If you cannot find what you are looking for, we have a reference desk, divided into various subject areas, where asking knowledge questions is welcome. Best of luck.

Actually, Astronaut, this is the Reference Desk. However it is quite possible that nobody answering here will be able to provide any useful information for you, particularly if, as I guess, your question relates to India. --ColinFine (talk) 21:43, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Why not? Are there no Wikipedia editors from India? --Jayron32 01:45, 24 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
While I did notice the IP address locates to Delhi University, there are many NCC and IMA and more than one coulod be relevant to an Indian student. I didn't want to presume which one the OP was asking about. However, the specific wording also sounds like the OP came here thinking we were actually associated with the body they are seeking information from. I think my answer was quite fair and the best that I could provide based on the information provided. Astronaut (talk) 09:25, 24 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Doesn't anyone know why we get so many requests for careers advice from Indian students? Is someone recommending us for that purpose? I'm not aware that we have ever been able to give a particularly useful answer to one of these questions... --Tango (talk) 11:57, 24 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

How do I download Omeglespyx for my computer? 71.146.4.142 (talk) 05:35, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You don't download it. It is an online chat website. Just point your browser at the website. Astronaut (talk) 11:06, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
They aren't asking how to use Omegle. They're asking about OmegleSpyX which is a downloadable. Dismas|(talk) 17:06, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
