Helpful copy edits on this page. Great work. Obina 23:28, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
I liked what you did and what you're proposing for cosmetics. The big problem I have is that much of the information about cosmetics and the cosmetic industry either isn't published anywhere, is proprietary information, is in sales literature from cosmetic ingredient suppliers, or is published only in specialized trade journals, most of which aren't on the web. I've been a cosmetic chemist for many years, but I can't just write down what I know and load it onto Wikipedia - I don't have sources for half of it outside of personal experience, and the other half is proprietary and/or copyrighted. See http://www.ctfa-buyersguide.org/ and try to look up an ingredient (water?) for an understanding of what I mean.
I'd like to help, though. If you can think of a way, or of a specific topic, let me know. Bobzchemist 19:57, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
Those are difficult questions. Let's first answer to your last paragraph. I think there will be 300+ items in the list, maybe many more (so far I've found search engines, but not complete lists... not a good sign). Some compounds will have more than one purpose, like surfactants that are acids. I'm afraid anything but alphabetic wont work.
'Purpose' will be a short characterization of why things are added, describing the nature of the compound and it's role in a mixture. By sticking to technical/chemical discriptions, I think it should be possible to keep that information non-controversial. INCI seems not to list useless or fantasy compounds but chemicals that are added usually and for a reason (I hope I am not wrong on that...).
Verifiability could become difficult, because the discription is very brief and basic. When I see 'sodium hydroxide' in the list, I just add 'base', like any chemist would, and on some I don't know yet were to get the information from at all... I will look around, there MUST be at least some books dealing with cosmetic industrial chemistry, to obtain most of the information from one source. Information in chemical text books is awfully scattered.
Then I think there should be two articles (which could both be described 'Cosmetic ingredients'...). One is the list I am working at, with the very chemical/INCI focus. Although I know some people (chemists...) who would read it for fun, one would typically use that list only for looking up what is in one's body lotion. Second would be an article in prose, giving a general idea how cosmetics are made, from what kind of substances, from which resources - a bit like the existing 'incredients' section in 'cosmetics', only better and verified. The natural division of such an article would of course be by categories, just as you proposed. Maybe using a disambiguation page?
I'm glad those questions can be discussed before any of the articles exists, that makes things much easier.-- Sam195 14:49, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
P.S. A disambiguation page for those two artcles, I mean. And did I write 'some books'? There are hundreds - so no problem there. -- Sam195 12:00, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
I have already executed a stub-class article on a late-1980's celebrity scent; since perfumes and fragrances are associated with cosmetics manufacturers, I consider perfume listings such as Electric Youth (fragrance) a potential include for WikiProject Cosmetics. Is this reasonable, or would you suggest a separate WikiProject on fragrances? - B.C.Schmerker 05:48, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your edit in Suhrawardy's article. But Categorizing Maulana Akram Khan to only Akram Khan is misleading as it refers either to the cricketer of BD or the Dancer from India, So..... I have reverted it again to Maulana Akram Khan( the famous politician and Editor of Daily Azad of Calcutta/Dhaka)asdone before by Al-minar.
Thank you once again!

Hi
Can you rename the Gulab Singh of Kashmir page to "Gulab Singh of Jammu and Kashmir", since that was the complete name of his kingdom?
See Jammu and Kashmir See http://www.indianembassy.org/new/Kargil/JSingh_BBC_July_19_1999.html
Maharaja Gulab Singh is considered a hero for the Rajputs and other people of Jammu and implying that he was a Kashmiri would be considered insulting. As it is many Pakistanis and their friends try to dilute the identity of Jammu and Ladakh by describing them as parts of "Kashmir", which is certainly not the case.
Thanks and regards, Jagat Singh Sambyal of Jammu. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 61.2.21.184 ( talk) 00:10, 14 February 2007 (UTC).

Many of them are of stub and start class, but a few are of B or A caliber. Getting a simple assessment rating can help us start moving many of these biographies to a higher quality article.

Hello Tina, I am RS. I am an atheist with a Hindu background. I am not an Indian. Was Jawaharlal Nehru, the first PM of India, an atheist? Do you have any reliable source that identifies Jawaharlal Nehru as an atheist? If yes, then, please add his name in the List of atheists. Thank You. RS
Hi. You posted some comments on Talk:Elizabeth Báthory and seem to be interested in keeping the article encyclopedic. Recently there's been a very aggressive anonymous IP address user editing the article to remove NPOV wording to outright try to make the article state that Bathory did, in fact, take baths in blood, did write a diary confessing to murders and witchcraft, and all sorts of other highly biased comments. I would appreciate it if you would add it to your watch list if it isn't already and take steps to prevent such blatant unscholarly personal opinions from remaining in the article. Thanks. DreamGuy 20:45, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
Hello Tina! Thank you for finding the source where Nehru is identified as a nonbeliever. However, to identify someone as an “atheist”, we need an impartial source where the person is identified as an “atheist”, or he/she should clearly say, “I don’t believe in the existence of God”.
The rules of the Wikipedia are strict. And, you know, we are serious atheists. Can you find a source where Nehru is identified as an “atheist”? Or, can you find a quote of Nehru where he affirms that he does not believe in the existence of God? If you can find those sources, then we can add his name in the List of atheists. Thank you.
Hi, I hope this is the correct place to contact you. I made an addition to Bathory, re Hostel 2. Sorry this was unrequired but I genuinely felt I was making a positive contribution. This way anyone wanting to understand some of this history might want to watch that scene in Hostel 2 to illustrate the sadistic brutality of this torturer.

The newsletter is back! Many things have gone on during the past few months, but many things have not. While the assessment drive helped revitalize the assessment department of the project, many other departments have received no attention. Most notably: peer review and our "workgroups". A day long IRC meeting has been planned for October 13th, with the major focus being which areas of the project are "dead", what should our goals be as a project, and how to "revive" the dead areas of our project. Contribute to the discussion on the the new channel (see below) We decided to deliver this newsletter to all project members this month but only those with their names down here will get it delivered in the future. This is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue. Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned or post news on the next issue's talk page
Lastly, a new WikiProject Biography channel has been set up on the freenode network: Our thanks to Phoenix 15 for setting it up.

Email to Postal Mail
A convenient free postal mail service which can deliver email messages all over Pakistan. Peoples can now use their email to send letters giving you another route to communicate with others who are not connected to the Internet in Pakistan.
In recent past Internet and e-mail have revolutionized the world of communications. But those who do not have easy access to Internet and e-mail facilities could not get benefits of this facility. In its endeavour to make the benefits of e-mail available to a common man, Al Tayyeb Group has introduced i-post service. By i-post all those who do not have computer or do not have access to Internet can send e-mail by Post Office or receive e-mail through a postman. Those who have access to Internet can also send i-post to those who do not have access to Internet.

I've been trying to write on articles related to the Empire of Brazil ( Honório Carneiro Leão, Marquis of Paraná, Afonso, Prince Imperial of Brazil, Platine War, etc...) but I could use some help.

Hello friends, we are a number of editors from WikiProject India have got together to assess the many thousands of articles under the stewardship of the project, and we'd love to have you, a fellow member, join us. These articles require assessment, that is, the addition of a WikiProject template to the talk page of an article, assessing it for quality and importance and adding a few extra parameters to it.
As of March 11, 2012, 07:00 UTC, WikiProject India has 95,998 articles under its stewardship. Of these 13,980 articles are completely unassessed (both for class and importance) and another 42,415 articles are unassessed for importance only. Accordingly, a Tag & Assess 2012 drive-cum-contest has begun from March 01, 2012 to last till May 31, 2012.
If you are new to assessment, you can learn the minimum about how to evaluate from Part One of the Assessment Guide. Part Two of the Guide will help you learn to employ the full functionality of the talk page template, should you choose to do so.
You can sign up on the Tag & Assess page. There are a number of awards to be given in recognition of your efforts. Come & join us to take part in this exciting new venture. You'll learn more about India in this way.

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant!

Helpful copy edits on this page. Great work. Obina 23:28, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
I liked what you did and what you're proposing for cosmetics. The big problem I have is that much of the information about cosmetics and the cosmetic industry either isn't published anywhere, is proprietary information, is in sales literature from cosmetic ingredient suppliers, or is published only in specialized trade journals, most of which aren't on the web. I've been a cosmetic chemist for many years, but I can't just write down what I know and load it onto Wikipedia - I don't have sources for half of it outside of personal experience, and the other half is proprietary and/or copyrighted. See http://www.ctfa-buyersguide.org/ and try to look up an ingredient (water?) for an understanding of what I mean.
I'd like to help, though. If you can think of a way, or of a specific topic, let me know. Bobzchemist 19:57, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
Those are difficult questions. Let's first answer to your last paragraph. I think there will be 300+ items in the list, maybe many more (so far I've found search engines, but not complete lists... not a good sign). Some compounds will have more than one purpose, like surfactants that are acids. I'm afraid anything but alphabetic wont work.
'Purpose' will be a short characterization of why things are added, describing the nature of the compound and it's role in a mixture. By sticking to technical/chemical discriptions, I think it should be possible to keep that information non-controversial. INCI seems not to list useless or fantasy compounds but chemicals that are added usually and for a reason (I hope I am not wrong on that...).
Verifiability could become difficult, because the discription is very brief and basic. When I see 'sodium hydroxide' in the list, I just add 'base', like any chemist would, and on some I don't know yet were to get the information from at all... I will look around, there MUST be at least some books dealing with cosmetic industrial chemistry, to obtain most of the information from one source. Information in chemical text books is awfully scattered.
Then I think there should be two articles (which could both be described 'Cosmetic ingredients'...). One is the list I am working at, with the very chemical/INCI focus. Although I know some people (chemists...) who would read it for fun, one would typically use that list only for looking up what is in one's body lotion. Second would be an article in prose, giving a general idea how cosmetics are made, from what kind of substances, from which resources - a bit like the existing 'incredients' section in 'cosmetics', only better and verified. The natural division of such an article would of course be by categories, just as you proposed. Maybe using a disambiguation page?
I'm glad those questions can be discussed before any of the articles exists, that makes things much easier.-- Sam195 14:49, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
P.S. A disambiguation page for those two artcles, I mean. And did I write 'some books'? There are hundreds - so no problem there. -- Sam195 12:00, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
I have already executed a stub-class article on a late-1980's celebrity scent; since perfumes and fragrances are associated with cosmetics manufacturers, I consider perfume listings such as Electric Youth (fragrance) a potential include for WikiProject Cosmetics. Is this reasonable, or would you suggest a separate WikiProject on fragrances? - B.C.Schmerker 05:48, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your edit in Suhrawardy's article. But Categorizing Maulana Akram Khan to only Akram Khan is misleading as it refers either to the cricketer of BD or the Dancer from India, So..... I have reverted it again to Maulana Akram Khan( the famous politician and Editor of Daily Azad of Calcutta/Dhaka)asdone before by Al-minar.
Thank you once again!

Hi, hope I am writing this message in the appropriate place. Why this inconsistency in the spelling of this name? Why are we using Caanakya except for places where its the name of a book or so? Thanks ... Vineethtm 19:48, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi
Can you rename the Gulab Singh of Kashmir page to "Gulab Singh of Jammu and Kashmir", since that was the complete name of his kingdom?
See Jammu and Kashmir See http://www.indianembassy.org/new/Kargil/JSingh_BBC_July_19_1999.html
Maharaja Gulab Singh is considered a hero for the Rajputs and other people of Jammu and implying that he was a Kashmiri would be considered insulting. As it is many Pakistanis and their friends try to dilute the identity of Jammu and Ladakh by describing them as parts of "Kashmir", which is certainly not the case.
Thanks and regards, Jagat Singh Sambyal of Jammu. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 61.2.21.184 ( talk) 00:10, 14 February 2007 (UTC).

Seeing that you are an active member of the WikiBiography Project, I was wondering if you would help lend a hand in helping us clear out the amount of [ unassessed articles] tagged with {{WPBiography}}. Many of them are of stub and start class, but a few are of B or A caliber. Getting a simple assessment rating can help us start moving many of these biographies to a higher quality article.

Hello Tina, I am RS. I am an atheist with a Hindu background. I am not an Indian. Was Jawaharlal Nehru, the first PM of India, an atheist? Do you have any reliable source that identifies Jawaharlal Nehru as an atheist? If yes, then, please add his name in the List of atheists. Thank You. RS
Hi. You posted some comments on Talk:Elizabeth Báthory and seem to be interested in keeping the article encyclopedic. Recently there's been a very aggressive anonymous IP address user editing the article to remove NPOV wording to outright try to make the article state that Bathory did, in fact, take baths in blood, did write a diary confessing to murders and witchcraft, and all sorts of other highly biased comments. I would appreciate it if you would add it to your watch list if it isn't already and take steps to prevent such blatant unscholarly personal opinions from remaining in the article. Thanks. DreamGuy 20:45, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
Hello Tina! Thank you for finding the source where Nehru is identified as a nonbeliever. However, to identify someone as an “atheist”, we need an impartial source where the person is identified as an “atheist”, or he/she should clearly say, “I don’t believe in the existence of God”.
The rules of the Wikipedia are strict. And, you know, we are serious atheists. Can you find a source where Nehru is identified as an “atheist”? Or, can you find a quote of Nehru where he affirms that he does not believe in the existence of God? If you can find those sources, then we can add his name in the List of atheists. Thank you.
Hi, I hope this is the correct place to contact you. I made an addition to Bathory, re Hostel 2. Sorry this was unrequired but I genuinely felt I was making a positive contribution. This way anyone wanting to understand some of this history might want to watch that scene in Hostel 2 to illustrate the sadistic brutality of this torturer.

The newsletter is back! Many things have gone on during the past few months, but many things have not. While the assessment drive helped revitalize the assessment department of the project, many other departments have received no attention. Most notably: peer review and our "workgroups". A day long IRC meeting has been planned for October 13th, with the major focus being which areas of the project are "dead", what should our goals be as a project, and how to "revive" the dead areas of our project. Contribute to the discussion on the the new channel (see below) We decided to deliver this newsletter to all project members this month but only those with their names down here will get it delivered in the future. This is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue. Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned or post news on the next issue's talk page
Lastly, a new WikiProject Biography channel has been set up on the freenode network: Our thanks to Phoenix 15 for setting it up.

Email to Postal Mail
A convenient free postal mail service which can deliver email messages all over Pakistan. Peoples can now use their email to send letters giving you another route to communicate with others who are not connected to the Internet in Pakistan.
In recent past Internet and e-mail have revolutionized the world of communications. But those who do not have easy access to Internet and e-mail facilities could not get benefits of this facility. In its endeavour to make the benefits of e-mail available to a common man, Al Tayyeb Group has introduced i-post service. By i-post all those who do not have computer or do not have access to Internet can send e-mail by Post Office or receive e-mail through a postman. Those who have access to Internet can also send i-post to those who do not have access to Internet.
Wikipedia should have an article on this social service & must be a part of WikiProject Pakistan.Please comments. -- SaqibChaudhry ( talk) 09:23, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

I've divided it in several articles (I've just finished Early life of Pedro II of Brazil) that goes from his birth to the the period beyond his death. The problem is that I am only one and can't do everything by myself. I've been trying to write on articles related to the Empire of Brazil ( Honório Carneiro Leão, Marquis of Paraná, Afonso, Prince Imperial of Brazil, Platine War, etc...) but I could use some help.

Hello friends, we are a number of editors from WikiProject India have got together to assess the many thousands of articles under the stewardship of the project, and we'd love to have you, a fellow member, join us. These articles require assessment, that is, the addition of a WikiProject template to the talk page of an article, assessing it for quality and importance and adding a few extra parameters to it.
As of March 11, 2012, 07:00 UTC, WikiProject India has 95,998 articles under its stewardship. Of these 13,980 articles are completely unassessed (both for class and importance) and another 42,415 articles are unassessed for importance only. Accordingly, a Tag & Assess 2012 drive-cum-contest has begun from March 01, 2012 to last till May 31, 2012.
If you are new to assessment, you can learn the minimum about how to evaluate from Part One of the Assessment Guide. Part Two of the Guide will help you learn to employ the full functionality of the talk page template, should you choose to do so.
You can sign up on the Tag & Assess page. There are a number of awards to be given in recognition of your efforts. Come & join us to take part in this exciting new venture. You'll learn more about India in this way.

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant!

If you've been contributing to the contest, thank you for your support, we've produced over 2000 articles. If you haven't contributed yet, we would appreciate you taking the time to add entries to our articles achievements list by the end of the month. Thank you, and if participating, good luck with the finale!
