[edit] License tagging for Image:Janmaadya.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Janmaadya.JPG. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 21:05, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Newari music

Thanks for your editing! Could you cite a source for your expansion at List of Asian folk music traditions. Thanks. Tuf-Kat 05:10, 3 June 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Concerning your Portal Proposal

I noticed you proposed Portal:Newa and it was summarily blocked by those who opposed it. This appears to have been in violation of Wikipedia's policy Wikipedia is not censored. Therefore I've nominated the portal approval process page for deletion. The discussion and voting page can be found at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Portal/Proposals. --Transhumanist 16:59, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 47 in Newari

Hi, I am collecting translations for the number 47 (forty-seven). So far I have 509 translations, which you can see here. Can you help and tell me how to say and write 47 in Newari? I'd be most thankful; please reply on my talk page. Thank you! — N-true 15:28, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi nice new articles but thet go under Category:Vajrayana Buddhism and Category:Newari. I have no knowledge of this sect they may be the same and one category may become one. But make sure it is under one of both of these. Ernst Stavro Blofeld 19:35, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

No having checked Newari is an ethnic group perhaps category using both this is very important to wikipedia. Please see Esoteric Transmission now. Also buddhist-stub Ernst Stavro Blofeld 19:37, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vajrayana

I object to your unilateral and arbitrary breaking up of the Vajrayana article. It is considered polite to discuss such major changes on the talk page of the article before making such a major change. I have reverted your removal of massive amounts of information from the article. While your Esoteric transmission article might have arguable merits, I believe that your Tantra techniques article is misguided and the information it contains which is unique to Vajrayana and not other forms of tantra should be kept in the Vajrayana article where it belong. Again, please discuss first with the other editors of the article before making such major changes. Such articles are always a delicate balance of negotiation and compromise between the existing editors, and those editors should be involved when making major changes. Thanks.

[edit] Invitation for WikiProject Maharashtra

Hi Eukesh,

A new project has been created, to exclusively deal with Maharashtra and Marathi-related articles. You are invited to join the WikiProject Maharashtra. The project aims to develop Marathi and Maharashtra-related articles to Featured Article-status. You can join the WikiProject by adding your username here. However, don't forget to visit the project page. This is of course, a sister project of Portal:Maharashtra. Come, join us in developing Wikipedia. Thanks,

[edit] Persecution of Hindus

Very thought-provoking facts you placed there. I was almost certain that Bhutan actually sanctions Hindu ceremonies. From what I understand Bhutanese just hate Nepalis, I'm not sure its really a religious hatred, more of an ethnic feud.Bakaman Bakatalk 22:48, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Thaks for opening my eyes. I never knew so much was going on.Bakaman Bakatalk 15:55, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Note from Editor's Desk
  • Welcome. It has been weeks and months since the idea of newsletter was mooted among the WikiProject India Community. This would be our first full-fledged edition of our Newsletter, and we'd like to start by saying we are very happy to have you among us.
  • This is your newsletter, and we want you to be part of it as well. Provide us with news tips here. It can be anything related to the project, from discussions to calls for help, and other interesting stuff within our community. If you have received or given any barnstars recently, do let us know.
  • Advertisements for recruitments within your WikiProject sub-groups are also welcome. We'll run special sections, and recurring columns in the coming issues.

  • Cartography Department (Shortcut:WP:INMAP): The Department of Cartography within the WikiProject India is a group of wikipedians who work on providing quality maps related to India. Their contributions gain more significance as we try to provide more information on places, districts and states of India. As a thumb rule, maps serve better if they are in SVG format. The location maps by the cartography department has helped us include location information based on latitudes and longitudes for a give place within India. The Indian Roadways map is a featured image, one amongst the few best road maps in the world. Still, there is more work to be done. There are 604 districts in India (see List of districts of India), and each district page needs a map of that district. You can help too. Contact the Cartography Department to learn how you can help in making the best maps in Wikipedia to be India-related!

Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may mention it at WikiProject India Outreach Department.

[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Nepal

Thank you for having recently joined the Nepal WikiProject! We are still a new group, so there is a lot of work to be done. We are very appreciative of your having joined, and look forward to working with you in the future. If you have any questions about the project, please feel free to contact either me or Яανị directly. Also, I noted that you created the recent Bhutan project. I added a little text to the project page and have listed it on the Wikipedia:Community Portal, so there is a chance of a few new members from there. Also, I created a banner for the project and am adding the project to the Project Directory. I also added my own name to the list of members, although, honestly, I'm not sure how much I will be able to add anytime soon, given other commitments. But a project with at least two members looks a bit better than just a one-person project, even if the other one isn't actually doing much project-related activity. Thanks for your work to date and all the work you will contribute to both of these projects. Badbilltucker 23:21, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pali wikipedia

Hi Eukesh - Thank you for the reference to pi.wikipedia.org. What a wonderful endeavor! With deep regret I must say I can only very marginally read a little Roman-script Pali. I don't even have regular access to a Devanāgarī-enabled Internet browser. And, at this point in my life, I would only embarass myself by attempting to write in anything other than English. You give me something else to aspire to though. Thank you so much for nurturing the Pali-language WP site. With sincere appreciation, LarryR 17:17, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject India Newsletter: Volume I, Issue 3 - December 2006

Project News
  • Name change of cities in Karnataka: A straw poll was conducted on the proposal to change the name of cities in Karnataka, per the Nov 1, 2006 decision by the Karnataka government to rename them from the current anglicised forms. The result of the poll was to change the names. As controversial as the decision may be in the real world, the article Bangalore in Wikipedia still reflects the old name. You may be interested in knowing why. Dig the archives.
  • New Project Noticeboard (Shortcut:WP:INB): WikiProject India now sports a new colourful centralised noticeboard. An effort to make the noticeboard current and dynamic was mooted a few days back, and Ganeshk came up with the new format. The new noticeboard will strive to be the one-stop shop for all project related information. The shortcut is WP:INB.
  • Members List: The old members list is being phased out to give way for the new members list. New members are requested to add their names to the new members list. As the newsletter grows, further issues of the Project Newsletter will be delivered to those enlisted in the new list. So dash down now, to check if ur name is in there.

Note from Editor's Desk
  • Welcome to the December 2006 edition of our newsletter. Time flies past like matter into the black hole. It is interesting to notice that we are already into the last month for the year of 2006. 2006 saw discussions and development beyond realisation. In the world of Wikipedia where quality counts than quantity, we have come a long way. We've made better than 'nothing', to say the least, and even that is an achievement. I take this opportunity to thank everyone including those who have dotted the i's and crossed the t's.
  • As before, we'd like to stress, this is your newsletter, and we want you to be part of it as well. Provide us with news tips. It can be anything related to the project, from discussions to calls for help, and other interesting stuff within our community. If you have received or given any barnstars recently, do let us know. Sponsored content for recruitments within your WikiProject sub-groups are also welcome. We'll be very happy to include them here.

[edit] Newar Rituals

You have created several very short stub articles on Newar rituals, such as Bahra, Jankwa and Iihipaa. Do you have enough information on these to create separate articles, or would it better to merge them all into one article called something like Newar Rituals and redirect to it?
