[edit] Welcome

Hello, Devapriya, and welcome to Wikipedia! I am Deepu Joseph (a.k.a. thunderboltz). Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk or ask me on my talk page.
• Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~).
• Provide an Edit summary
• Take a look at Consensus of standards. It is always wise to read the talk page of an existing article before making major changes on it. Even then, I typically ask if anyone minds that I make a change. Very often they do! ;-)
• Create a User page

[edit] Re: Is it justifiable.....?

Hi! The article S. Jithesh was unreferenced and was deleted per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/S. Jithesh. Then it was recreated and was speedy deleted according to the policy. The alleged sockpuppetry/meatpuppetry[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AAdministrators%27_noticeboard%2FIncidents&diff=84451988&oldid=84448007 ] second deletion nomination (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/S. Jithesh (2nd nomination)) only raised doubts. That was my reason for protecting the page to avoid recreation of the article.

The links provided by you are as follows:

• [1]: This is a directory, which anybody can join and add/update his/her profile (From the site: "It is FREE without photos and Rs.100 with photos")
• [2]: Again, anybody can sign up and create a profile here.
• [3] is a personal page hosted at Tripod, a free web-hosting service
• [4] is a personal page hosted at Geocities, a free web-hosting service
• Chintha.com: I'm not sure about this one. But from the website: "Chintha.com depends heavily on the resources of many voluteers. They are contributing their time and energy to create content"

However, since you say that S. Jithesh is famous in Kerala, I've dropped a note at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Kerala. If the person is indeed notable, I (or some other admin) will unprotect the page and allow creation of article with references. utcursch | talk 13:22, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lame excuses of an Administrator

User:Utcursch doesn't know Malayalam...!So he had to consult with other Kerala wikies before taking a hasty step. Answer to all the above raised Questions by User:Utcursch is there in the Desabhimani Daily's and Samakalika Malayalam Weekly's cuttings. I have uploaded the scanned copies of the newspaper in Talk:S. Jitheshpage and in Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Kerala. Please visit the pages. Who can judge the notability of a Malayali Cartoonist...? We malayalees or a person who does't know Malayalam....? He had to take our opinions into consideration.Atleast the opinions of User:Kjrajesh, User:Raghu.kuttan,I and you since our major contributins are on related subjects. These type of deletions will blacken the credibility of wikipedia. As we all know there are only a few editors in Kerala wikipedia who are interested in the editing of Art and literature related subjects. All who love Malayalam literature know that www.chintha.com is a popular Malayalam Online Magazine. All the writers featured in that online magazine are notable. One is a Njanapeed Winner. Some others are Padmasree winners.Can he say that all are notable,except one! I'm Sure all the Malayalees will laugh at such stupid deletions. I think Art lovers of Kerala will laugh at wikipedia if it's going in this way...! Ego clash between editors will hinder the improvement of this site. Let the experts to comment on art related subjects.?  Nileena joseph ^{(Talk|Contribs)} 16:35, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
