Hi, my name is George and I made an account on the English version a few minutes ago. I am a amateur photographer and I will like to put some pictures where I think they are needed. I tried to put one on a page about a village in Netherlands, Eckelrade and apparently I have don't have the rights so far. I would like to know if U can help me in this problem. I have an account on the Romanian version with the same name. I also have a page where I put photos that I like http://haiducul.deviantart.com/ This is just to check me out. I hope I will have an answer soon. All the best, George
P.S. By the way, I appealed to U because I saw U started the article about Eckelrade. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Haiducul ( talk • contribs) 13:29, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi
As a new wikipedian,I was keen to create two articles on a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and a fellow of the Royal Society of Canada . Both are highly respected societies but I am trepidated to note that there has been some debate as to whether their members merit sufficient notability!!!To my way of thinking they do but I would welcome your advice as an adminsitrator (specially so from Chennai).

Hi Bhadani,
User:Walky-talky is constantly vandalising the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh page. He introduces soapboxy content that does not exist, claiming that it exists in sources. When asked he evades reply. I tried to discuss, plead several times. But he just reverts back things.
A scrap from somebody in his talk page, which he reverted back made me suspect that he is a sock puppet of banned user [User:Kuntanan] [3] From his very first edit he seems to know all rules of wiki.His style of editing seems to confirm my belief.

Hi Sir,
One user named AlexCovarrubias is typing untrue statements on the article Newly industrialized country. I corrected the information and put a note in the discussion section but he reverted them for no proper reason. He is a Mexican citizen and puts untrue information about Mexico in the article. I got the following facts from two very credible sources. The information is: 1) Mexico is classified as a developing country by the CIA World Factbook. Here is the source: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/appendix/appendix-b.html 2) The planning commission of Government of India classifies only 27.5% (and NOT 77%) of the population as the people under the national poverty line. He has typed the converse of these facts on the page Newly industrialized country. I do not want some body to edit these data and type something amiss (wrong) about any country in particular- India. Please protect the articles- Newly industrialized country, Developing country, Iyengar, and Vadakalai. I will keep you posted of other articles that are subject to mishandling, posting the wrong information, and/or vandalism of any kind. Please prevent this person ( AlexCovarrubias) from making edits on Wikipedia (WP). Please protect the contents of WP. Awaiting your urgent attention and help in this regard. Thanks for your time.

I saw that the list of yoga postures page had a redlink to Añjali Mudrā so I went ahead and created this page, not realizing that you had already created a stub for Anjalimudra. I've set up a couple of redirects to Añjali Mudrā from alternative spellings (actually, alternative punctuation and accents) but I didn't want to change an existing page into a redirect without checking with you first. Please advise how we should proceed.

Thank you for your wishes. I am confident to have a more productive stint this time - in the 5th year (and onwards) of my life as a Wikipedian. Currently, I am on deputation (from Bank of India) to Jharkhand Rural Bank as Regional Manager, Hazaribag Region, Hazaribag. The Region covers four districts, namely, Hazaribag, Chatra, Ramgarh and Koderma. I have extensively toured all the four districts very recently and the life here is very different compared to the developed states of South India where I spent around a decade of my working life. I had lived and worked in this beautiful small town (Hazaribag) long long back in 1975 for about a year. And, thanks once again for welcoming me. It gives a lot of encouragement to learn that friends are watching my page. And yes, Tinujee, I saw WP:MBL3. I am happy to see the same.

I have written and added to some articles about Rapti Zone based on my travels there as a volunteer in U.S. Peace Corps many years ago, plus new information I've found online and gotten from friends and colleagues. I was posted to Pyuthan Jilla so I've written about the district, Pyuthan Khalanga, the temple at Swargadwari, Dang District and Rapti Zone.
Of course there's much more to do and it would be wonderful if people living there now or recently could correct the errors that have probably crept into what I wrote.
Here is a long list of historic and religious sites in Nepal including dozens in Rapti Zone:

A tag has been placed on User talk:Pizzahut2, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that they
userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Thanks -- Iball ( talk) 16:35, 22 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi! I need some help on the article's history section. A user insists on removing a piece of information from the article. He thinks it is trivial. He insists using barabanki.nic as current W:RS for article. I have been insisting that info is relevant, etc. Can you check whether it is so? May be the user is correct but I'm not sure whether a piece of info which is properly sourced is all together non-worthy to be allowed little space in article. May be I'm incorrect, I just want issues at the article to be sorted out, either way. -- Sayed Mohammad Faiz Haider t c s 08:27, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

The article Alok Kumar Misra has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{ prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. jsfouche ☽☾ Talk 21:19, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
The article Ignited Minds has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}

edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other

speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach

A tag has been placed on File:Image of the Tomb of Emperor Humayun at Delhi.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hi, could I ask for your assistance? Two users by the names of Twilight Chill & Tuscumbia are vandalizing the History of Azerbaijan by removing citations to scholarly texts indicating that Azerbaijan was a part of Iranian territory for thousands of years: any serious student of history knows this, and the books cited to are from the Near Eastern Studies Department of a major University. Nevertheless, they keep removing citations from books (and rewriting history). It requires the oversight of someone such as yourself. Thank you for your assistance (and great quote from Robert Frost ... "and Miles to go before I sleep ...").

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Ignited Minds.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under Non-Free content criteria but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a Non-Free rationale.
If you have uploaded other Non-Free media, consider checking that you have specified the Non-Free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

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

Hi Bhadani. I saw you wrote "some one should create pages for each village" as an edit summary on the Sheikhpura district article. I agree that we should eventually have a page for each town/village, and I think it should be linked to from tehsil sites (which still need to be finished... I'm working on the maps now). We should probably start organizing a village page creation campaign eventually, and keep it organized amongst one another, since it's a huge job that will last for years. An example of what it could look like is this page, which is one of the two subdivisions (what they call tehsils up there) of North Sikkim district, listing every single village in the subdivision (admittedly very few -- it's North Sikkim, after all), the info for which I found here -- the only site I've seen which lists every village in India. I stopped making those articles, though, because I figure they might eventually release the census info for each village, and it's best to wait until then. Have you heard any info on if they plan to release village population figures?
Cheers, Bhadani. PhnomPencil ( talk) 14:04, 24 October 2011 (UTC)

Hi. In your recent article edits, you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Dear Bhadani,
My name is Jonathan Obar
user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community
HERE, were it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.
So a few things about the interviews:
Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name
HERE instead.
If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.
Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Obar -- Jaobar ( talk) 15:50, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi Bhadani,
User:Walky-talky is constantly vandalising the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh page. He introduces soapboxy content that does not exist, claiming that it exists in sources. When asked he evades reply. I tried to discuss, plead several times. But he just reverts back things.
A scrap from somebody in his talk page, which he reverted back made me suspect that he is a sock puppet of banned user [User:Kuntanan] [3] From his very first edit he seems to know all rules of wiki.His style of editing seems to confirm my belief.

Thanks for uploading File:Nitish Kumar On India Today Cover.JPG. 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).

Hi Sir,
One user named AlexCovarrubias is typing untrue statements on the article Newly industrialized country. I corrected the information and put a note in the discussion section but he reverted them for no proper reason. He is a Mexican citizen and puts untrue information about Mexico in the article. I got the following facts from two very credible sources. The information is: 1) Mexico is classified as a developing country by the CIA World Factbook. Here is the source: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/appendix/appendix-b.html 2) The planning commission of Government of India classifies only 27.5% (and NOT 77%) of the population as the people under the national poverty line. He has typed the converse of these facts on the page Newly industrialized country. I do not want some body to edit these data and type something amiss (wrong) about any country in particular- India. Please protect the articles- Newly industrialized country, Developing country, Iyengar, and Vadakalai. I will keep you posted of other articles that are subject to mishandling, posting the wrong information, and/or vandalism of any kind. Please prevent this person ( AlexCovarrubias) from making edits on Wikipedia (WP). Please protect the contents of WP. Awaiting your urgent attention and help in this regard. Thanks for your time.

I saw that the list of yoga postures page had a redlink to Añjali Mudrā so I went ahead and created this page, not realizing that you had already created a stub for Anjalimudra. I've set up a couple of redirects to Añjali Mudrā from alternative spellings (actually, alternative punctuation and accents) but I didn't want to change an existing page into a redirect without checking with you first. Please advise how we should proceed.

Thank you for your wishes. I am confident to have a more productive stint this time - in the 5th year (and onwards) of my life as a Wikipedian. Currently, I am on deputation (from Bank of India) to Jharkhand Rural Bank as Regional Manager, Hazaribag Region, Hazaribag. The Region covers four districts, namely, Hazaribag, Chatra, Ramgarh and Koderma. I have extensively toured all the four districts very recently and the life here is very different compared to the developed states of South India where I spent around a decade of my working life. I had lived and worked in this beautiful small town (Hazaribag) long long back in 1975 for about a year. And, thanks once again for welcoming me. It gives a lot of encouragement to learn that friends are watching my page. And yes, Tinujee, I saw WP:MBL3. I am happy to see the same. Sadly, I may not be able to join as I am in the process of understanding my role and the Region. Regards. -- Bhadani ( talk) 17:03, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

I have written and added to some articles about Rapti Zone based on my travels there as a volunteer in U.S. Peace Corps many years ago, plus new information I've found online and gotten from friends and colleagues. I was posted to Pyuthan Jilla so I've written about the district, Pyuthan Khalanga, the temple at Swargadwari, Dang District and Rapti Zone.
Of course there's much more to do and it would be wonderful if people living there now or recently could correct the errors that have probably crept into what I wrote.
Here is a long list of historic and religious sites in Nepal including dozens in Rapti Zone:

A brand new editor recently created this stub, which was subsequently tagged as a CSD G3 hoax. I declined the speedy deletion as I don't believe it meets the criteria - seems quite plausible to me. At the same time, I can't find much online to support the existence of this village, and it's not one of those listed in the Baglung District article - which you originally started. I'm curious if you have any insight as to the existence (or non-existence)of this village?-- Kubigula ( talk) 04:36, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

Why did editor Moonriddengirl ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Moonriddengirl#Bhurshut ) delete the rewritten post which had no copyright problem? Elsewhere you say there is no issues if the article was rewritten and so was it done to avoid any possible copyright violation.

A tag has been placed on User talk:Pizzahut2, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that they
userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Hi! I need some help on the article's history section. A user insists on removing a piece of information from the article. He thinks it is trivial. He insists using barabanki.nic as current W:RS for article. I have been insisting that info is relevant, etc. Can you check whether it is so? May be the user is correct but I'm not sure whether a piece of info which is properly sourced is all together non-worthy to be allowed little space in article. May be I'm incorrect, I just want issues at the article to be sorted out, either way. -- Sayed Mohammad Faiz Haider t c s 08:27, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

The article Alok Kumar Misra has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{ prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. jsfouche ☽☾ Talk 21:19, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on File:Image of the Tomb of Emperor Humayun at Delhi.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}

Hi, could I ask for your assistance? Two users by the names of Twilight Chill & Tuscumbia are vandalizing the History of Azerbaijan by removing citations to scholarly texts indicating that Azerbaijan was a part of Iranian territory for thousands of years: any serious student of history knows this, and the books cited to are from the Near Eastern Studies Department of a major University. Nevertheless, they keep removing citations from books (and rewriting history). It requires the oversight of someone such as yourself. Thank you for your assistance (and great quote from Robert Frost ... "and Miles to go before I sleep ...").

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Ignited Minds.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under Non-Free content criteria but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a Non-Free rationale.
If you have uploaded other Non-Free media, consider checking that you have specified the Non-Free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

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

Hi Bhadani. I saw you wrote "some one should create pages for each village" as an edit summary on the Sheikhpura district article. I agree that we should eventually have a page for each town/village, and I think it should be linked to from tehsil sites (which still need to be finished... I'm working on the maps now). We should probably start organizing a village page creation campaign eventually, and keep it organized amongst one another, since it's a huge job that will last for years. An example of what it could look like is this page, which is one of the two subdivisions (what they call tehsils up there) of North Sikkim district, listing every single village in the subdivision (admittedly very few -- it's North Sikkim, after all), the info for which I found here -- the only site I've seen which lists every village in India. I stopped making those articles, though, because I figure they might eventually release the census info for each village, and it's best to wait until then. Have you heard any info on if they plan to release village population figures?
Cheers, Bhadani. PhnomPencil ( talk) 14:04, 24 October 2011 (UTC)

All you have to do is put an asterisk next to the largest article you've wikified, and coordinators will check its wordcount after the drive ends. If you have a spare moment, please join and wikify an article or tell your friends. Thanks! Note: The drive starts December 1, and you can

Hi. In your recent article edits, you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Dear Bhadani,
My name is Jonathan Obar
user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community
HERE, were it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.
So a few things about the interviews:
Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name
HERE instead.
If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.
Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Obar -- Jaobar ( talk) 15:50, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi! It seems you recently created an unreferenced biography of a living person: Raghubar Das. The community has decided that all new biographies of living persons must contain a reliable source that supports at least one statement made about the person in the article as per our verifiability policy. Please add references as soon as possible. Thanks! -- LaraBot ( talk) 00:11, 19 February 2012 (UTC)
Hi, are you sure a 3-hour block is sufficient? This user has just come off a 3-month block, and has resorted to a large amount of vandalism, including BLP on at least two pages stating that Danny Dyer is leader of a group of criminals called Millwall Bushwackers known for football hooliganism, riots, fighting and arson. Please could you consider extending the block. Thank you. ⊃° HotCrocodile …… + 14:53, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
