Reviews
- Positives
- Great work on writing and improving Indian related articles.
- I'm also impressed with your work on Indian AfD's and WikiProjects.
- Suggestions
- I suggest focusing on topics other than India. Doing so can allow you to interact with a larger group of editors, which would defiantly help you if you ever consider requesting for adminship.
- You also need a lot more project edits. For example, you could participate in Peer Reviews, Esperanza, or RC Patrol.
- Instead of creating a new account, you should have renamed your old one. See Wikipedia:Changing username.
- I vocally agreed with TCB on the account renaming note :-). The only place I've really seen you around was at RfA, but you seem to be a very good editor, especially to India-related articles. I'm not sure what TBC is talking about as far as project space edits are concerned. You seem to be a very active participant at both RfA and sometimes AfD. Since you chose to create another account rather than renaming your old one, you will probably have to wait longer to enter an RfA. Still, I think you have the potential to be one of the many Indian aminiatrators we have on Wikipedia. - Mike | Trick or Treat 01:55, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

- This is concerning however. You'll probably get slammed for that on an RfA ;-). Creating articles about yourself is both against WP:AUTO and WP:VANITY. Probably if you have a consistant track record for a long time, people will be able to forgive you for it, but I can still see a few a oppose votes happening as a result of the incident. - Mike | Trick or Treat 02:15, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

- Response to this. Oh, well that makes it much less serious then. I'm glad to see that you've decided to go back to the old account :-). Be sure to fix your old redirects and redirect this page there. However, your behavior at the AfD was pretty bad, especially the constant shouting (or BIG TEXT the online equivalent). Since this was a relatively recent incident, I would wait several months to a year before an RfA. - Mike | Trick or Treat 02:26, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
- Hello there, Mariano Anto Bruno Mascarenhas. Reviewing the previous comments, I agree with the username change. I would not have removed the petition, it is better to know if it is possible to merge both users into one so that further reviews don't recommend you to do that again. Also, consider that this review will end in November 26 (a month after being published), so it may take a time until then. Now, the review. It is good to see you have improved quite a lot since Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mariano Anto Bruno Mascarenhas, understanding Wikipedia philosophy and even adopting a username to contribute. I notice you had uploaded 4 images with your old account, including Image:Wikiblock.jpg. You can't license a screenshot from Wikipedia as GFDL, note how Image:Www.wikipedia.org screenshot.png is tagged. If you don't need it anymore, I suggest you to nominate it for deletion (remove the license tag and use {{nld}} (as in {{subst:nld}}). The dual license for Image:TvMCEmblemColourWeb.jpg is strange. Can I take the image, modify it slightly (in example, include a sun behind the image) and then use it as a new magazine logo? If not, then the Creative Commons license should be removed, and the image reduced in size with the {{fair use reduce}} tag. As for your contributions, you have done a lot in Indian related articles. As you can imagine, most of the editors in the English Wikipedia are American or European, thus having people from other nations working in articles about their own places is always welcomed. I see a lot of participation in AFDs as well, however some comments like It is a wonder as to how it was termed as non-notable should not be made, as not everyone knows about Indian topics as you or other Wikipedians. Other than that (and considering your edits from September and October), you have done pretty well, and with your membership in Indian-related WikiProjects you will obtain more experience at writing, plus improving the quality of Indian-related articles. Good luck! -- ReyBrujo 23:49, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

- Just a note that at this point since you have made so many contributions with it I think you should stick to the new account. Nice job organizing your archives on your talk page BTW. - Mike | Talk 02:05, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
Questions
- Of your contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
- Nothing Special. I have not contributed significantly to FA. I have made substantial contributions to Articles relating to Tamil Nadu, Cricket.
- Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
- Few Minor conflicts, especially when I try to bring a POV article, I sometimes overstep make it POV at the opposite side !!! Like Sachin Tendulkar or Reservation_in_India. Other than that my concept of Notability and use of Hard Copies as reference have not found agreement with many people. Usually I don't revert the changes without discussion at the talk page. I can say that I have been never involved in 3RR or such. If some one gives stress, I would rather wait for sometime and allow things to settle Doctor Bruno 21:16, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
