Hi Fowler&fowler. The Pakistan article is currently undergoing a peer review and the aim is to make it a featured article again.

The article on Bengal Presidency claims that during the early part of the 19th century the Presidency extended upto NWFP and included Punjab. But is it not true that there were distinct entities to the west of the present-day Bihar right from the start of British occupation (Most of the United Provinces formed a part of the Ceded and Conquered Provinces, then Agra Presidency and later, North-Western Provinces). Did they come under the Bengal Presidency or were they outside its jurisdiction and if they did, how was the administrative setup in those areas?- Ravi My Tea Kadai 17:29, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Kashmir, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Cashmere and Chenar ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Your recent spate (which you reverted) on the 'List of Doon School alumni featured list nomination' was more to do with your personal convictions, whatever they are I'm not averse to them nor am I challenging them (you're entitled to your opinion). But the fault is that you didn't distance yourself while reviewing it. And, casually, trashed the list (and thereby the hours I put in to improve it) by succumbing to your personal opinions of the school. I believe mixing your personal convictions with Wikipedia editing/reviewing is dangerously counter-productive to its well-established neutral standpoint.

Greetings. wrt my last edit in 'Kurmi' i just clarified vague unrefrenced preexisting varna issue in lede with balanced and well ref content did not add anything except accurate ref. in etymology section tortoise totem is not my spec. only full sentance from same ref. previous editor for the reasons best known to him preferred to quote only half sentence from given ref and also surprisingly avoided final conclusive view of ref writer on etymology of kurmi. i merely completed referred sentence. did not add a word of my own. in info box i added a subcaste for which written references are available. thanks. my only concern is immediate deletion of my well referenced content by other editor. i feel sad.

Talk:Burma/Myanmar, is considered
bad practice, even if you meant it well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the

You probably take longer wikibreaks than I do :) However, there's one topic area that can be addressed quite easily even if you have just a few minutes here and there and was wondering if you might consider helping out in that. Category:R. K. Narayan, like all non-Bollywood/caste related topics is a heavily ignored area, albeit significant. Would you be able to spend a few minutes here and there to help bring all book articles within the category to a C-Class level? I've listed a couple of sources within each article as I created them, but there are a lot more and someone with access to an academic library would do better. (RP, this one's for you too). cheers. — Spaceman Spiff 04:27, 13 April 2012 (UTC)

Hello, I am a user very active in the Good Article nominating system. I often look and scout for articles that could pass as GAs. I was sifting through WikiProject Mathematics, and found this article. You seem to be the editor who has has the most recent edits done, and I was wondering, do think the article is ready to go under a GA review. If so, Great! If not, what could be done to improve it. I am really exuberant when an article I nominate becomes a GA, and would like for this one to. Please, help this article become a GA. Thanks mate! Oakley77 ( talk) 18:45, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

Based on your evidence at Talk:British Raj, I filed an SPI here. FYI if you want to comment further. -- regentspark ( comment) 14:21, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
I added a sentence on page India, Medieval history beginning 16th century, the information on 15 years (1540-1556) of local Afghan Suri Dynasty and their advisor Hemu's rule, who is also known as the last Hindu emperor of India. 1526 had seen the attack of Babur and demolition of most revered Hindu temples in North India. The barbaric rule was challenged by locals and Afghans lead by Sheh Shah Suri successfully defeated Babur's son Humanyun in 1540 and established an Afghan rule. Hindu king Hemu was an advisor to Islam Shah from 1544 to 1553 and worked as Governor of Punjab, Delhi etc. before acceeding to the throne of Delhi, after winning 22 battles continuously from Punjab to Bengal. Hemu lost his life in 2nd battle of Panipat fighying against Akbar's army. This 16 years non-mughal rule is missing on the page, hence, the need of putting a line. I think the line I wrote settles well with the flow and facts on the page. Please do the needful. Sudhirkbhargava ( talk) 11:13, 15 June 2012 (UTC)

what books do you suggest I use to source the article? I have the autobiography on hand but i am guessing that be a primary source so it could be a problem. also many of the books i have on him are very old ones written by contemporaries.

It's precisely your view that India was a 'colony' and therefore different from other legitimate countries is all the proof I need that your views are heavily biased and it is not worth trying to convince you of anything. The occupation of India by your ancestors as well the occupation by various Muslim invaders were mere chapters in the history of India which has remained a cultural/ethnic/geographic, even a linguistic entity for many millennia. Never mind Akhand Bharat and what the Hindutvavadis says, you clearly need to study-up on your history before you start editing WP pages. As for not creating an account, I have been editing pages since '05 or '06 without an account. I have never felt the need to create one and don't intend to do so now either. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 114.143.119.26 ( talk) 11:10, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
BTW, I might do a trawl of YK's recent article edits, per the ANI discussion. In the circumstances, including the fact that he threw a boomerang, I doubt that I could be accused of hounding if I do a review. What do you think? - Sitush ( talk) 12:13, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
I see, you're still at it. At the risk of sounding like one of the prescriptive grammarians of the 19th century, here goes: If "monumental fools" is singular, then subject-verb concord demands, "Monumental fools such as you is the reason that ...." (Similar to, "where handicaps such as deafness is the reason for the institutionalization.") Semantically, though, what makes more sense is: "Monumental foolishness, such as yours, is the reason ...." or "The prevalence of monumental fools such as you is the reason ...." Other anomalies in the rapidly decaying cadaver of your English are: (i) the use of "even though" with "still;" use one or the other, (ii) "know ... better than you;" use "better than you do" (same as "better than you know yourself") or "better than I know you." In conversation, this distinction is not important; but, here, given your dramatic claim, it most certainly is. (iii) "reason education is going ...;" use "reason that education is going." In many instances, though not here, "that" can be (and often is) dropped. Fowler&fowler «Talk» 04:46, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

Category:R. K. Narayan, like all non-Bollywood/caste related topics is a heavily ignored area, albeit significant. Would you be able to spend a few minutes here and there to help bring all book articles within the category to a C-Class level? I've listed a couple of sources within each article as I created them, but there are a lot more and someone with access to an academic library would do better. (RP, this one's for you too). cheers. — Spaceman Spiff 04:27, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is " Kurmi". Thank you. -- Jaychandra ( talk) 19:11, 21 April 2012 (UTC)
How do? I realise that you are on a break but I also know that you manage to find a few minutes from time to time. You should have been notified of this thread at ANI. - Sitush ( talk) 22:37, 1 May 2012 (UTC)
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is " Kashmiri Pandit". Thank you. -- SubQuad ( talk) 08:26, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
Hi, I did check the source in "A History of India By Hermann Kulke, Dietmar Rothermund" its written as Buddha is regarded as the first historic figure but regarded by who? I don't think that it can be written directly as "Buddhism, based on the teachings of India's first historical figure, Gautama Buddha". let me know your thoughts. -- sarvajna ( talk) 09:30, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

Dear Fowler&fowler, I apologize for being harsh on anyone. But please I am asking because I do not know whom to ask. Could you please tell me what is the solution when there is lots of WP:RS but no consensus. What needs to be done in such cases on the wikipedia? But in anyway I apologize for being harsh. Could you please help me and suggest a solution. Best regards and thanks Robin klein ( talk) 01:55, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
Hello, I am a user very active in the Good Article nominating system. I often look and scout for articles that could pass as GAs. I was sifting through WikiProject Mathematics, and found this article. You seem to be the editor who has has the most recent edits done, and I was wondering, do think the article is ready to go under a GA review. If so, Great! If not, what could be done to improve it. I am really exuberant when an article I nominate becomes a GA, and would like for this one to. Please, help this article become a GA. Thanks mate! Oakley77 ( talk) 18:45, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
I will give this a closer look. I've been meaning to ease back into wikipedia, and I promise to look into it by this weekend. Cool Hand Luke 14:46, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
Based on your evidence at Talk:British Raj, I filed an SPI here. FYI if you want to comment further. -- regentspark ( comment) 14:21, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
I added a sentence on page India, Medieval history beginning 16th century, the information on 15 years (1540-1556) of local Afghan Suri Dynasty and their advisor Hemu's rule, who is also known as the last Hindu emperor of India. 1526 had seen the attack of Babur and demolition of most revered Hindu temples in North India. The barbaric rule was challenged by locals and Afghans lead by Sheh Shah Suri successfully defeated Babur's son Humanyun in 1540 and established an Afghan rule. Hindu king Hemu was an advisor to Islam Shah from 1544 to 1553 and worked as Governor of Punjab, Delhi etc. before acceeding to the throne of Delhi, after winning 22 battles continuously from Punjab to Bengal. Hemu lost his life in 2nd battle of Panipat fighying against Akbar's army. This 16 years non-mughal rule is missing on the page, hence, the need of putting a line. I think the line I wrote settles well with the flow and facts on the page. Please do the needful. Sudhirkbhargava ( talk) 11:13, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
Just seen your removal at the Kashmiri article. I am not going to go mad about it but will be doing the same as and when I spot them. Good result; good stuff. - Sitush ( talk) 00:48, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
Right now, I am taking a short break and tidying some loose ends relating to Mancunian botanists, with the intention of taking John Horsefield to GA. Yes, I am aware that you do not care for the award-seeking tendency but if you fancy taking a look and feel the need to tweak anything there then please do. - Sitush ( talk) 01:01, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
Next time, please refrain from your de-constructive edits to wikipages. I'm referring to the case where you removed 'lawyer' from Nehru's description in the lead. Thanks! -- NehruJunky ( talk) 14:49, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
Do we really need urdu and hindi versions in the article? (Noting that you put them back after I'd removed them.) -- regentspark ( comment) 16:32, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
what books do you suggest I use to source the article? I have the autobiography on hand but i am guessing that be a primary source so it could be a problem. also many of the books i have on him are very old ones written by contemporaries. Is it really a big problem to cite them in support of the minor stuff? ex he attended this and he became so and so in this year etc? Cliniic ( talk) 18:40, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

It's precisely your view that India was a 'colony' and therefore different from other legitimate countries is all the proof I need that your views are heavily biased and it is not worth trying to convince you of anything. The occupation of India by your ancestors as well the occupation by various Muslim invaders were mere chapters in the history of India which has remained a cultural/ethnic/geographic, even a linguistic entity for many millennia. Never mind Akhand Bharat and what the Hindutvavadis says, you clearly need to study-up on your history before you start editing WP pages. As for not creating an account, I have been editing pages since '05 or '06 without an account. I have never felt the need to create one and don't intend to do so now either. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 114.143.119.26 ( talk) 11:10, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
BTW, I might do a trawl of YK's recent article edits, per the ANI discussion. In the circumstances, including the fact that he threw a boomerang, I doubt that I could be accused of hounding if I do a review. What do you think? - Sitush ( talk) 12:13, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
I see, you're still at it. At the risk of sounding like one of the prescriptive grammarians of the 19th century, here goes: If "monumental fools" is singular, then subject-verb concord demands, "Monumental fools such as you is the reason that ...." (Similar to, "where handicaps such as deafness is the reason for the institutionalization.") Semantically, though, what makes more sense is: "Monumental foolishness, such as yours, is the reason ...." or "The prevalence of monumental fools such as you is the reason ...." Other anomalies in the rapidly decaying cadaver of your English are: (i) the use of "even though" with "still;" use one or the other, (ii) "know ... better than you;" use "better than you do" (same as "better than you know yourself") or "better than I know you." In conversation, this distinction is not important; but, here, given your dramatic claim, it most certainly is. (iii) "reason education is going ...;" use "reason that education is going." In many instances, though not here, "that" can be (and often is) dropped. Fowler&fowler «Talk» 04:46, 28 June 2012 (UTC)
I went through that page, the consensus was not reached, and the discussion is going on, sorry, I cant accept your POV untill an administrator says so Paansing ( talk) 06:02, 23 June 2012 (UTC)

Continue your Das related discussions on his talk page Talk:Satish Ranjan Das. I have moved whatever was not pertinent (for improvement of DS article) from the Doon School's talk page to Das's. Continue it there and don't dump that garbage on Doon School's talk page.-- Merlaysamuel : Speechify 08:25, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
