User talk:Medicine man

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello! I saw that you created the United one heart foundation article. Welcome to wikipedia, my name is Oskar, and If you need any help, feel free to ask. My talk page is at User talk:Oskar Sigvardsson, just press the link at the top to leave me a message. Anything at all, I'm here to help. I see that you have been around here for a while (you can see your own contributions here), but since no-one has formally welcomed you, I'd thought I'd do it. So welcome! Cheers! Oskar 23:06, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

No problem. I see that you got a message on the image you uploaded. Do you want help with that, or what? Oskar 23:14, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] United one heart foundation

I'm looking in to it. Stay tuned and I'll see what I can do. Just remember one thing, don't start recreating it, that will get you blocked for a short time if you do it too much. Cheers! Oskar 22:59, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

The recreated article is now located at User:Oskar Sigvardsson/United one heart foundation, in my userspace. Try and improve it as much as you can (I'll help too), so it won't get deleted again and in a week or so, we'll move it back to the main article space. Ok with you? Oskar 18:25, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
Sorry I haven't been able to look through it yet, I'm starting now :P From a first glance, it looks great, but I'll read it through. Oskar 23:20, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
Yeah, I just read it again, and it needs some serious rewriting. It's not really adhearing to neutral point of view right now. From the article you wrote, it's hard to really understand what the foundation does. First, answer me a few questions: It's an organization which provides medicine, medical technology and medical education to the third world, correct? In what countries does it operate? How much money does it contribute? Where is it located (in India?)? How many employees are there? Can you give me a short summary of the projects it's involved with? What's the history, how long has it existed? Who founded it? Try to come up with a few more of these, and notify me on my talk-page. Just give me the facts straight, as many as you know :P
You see, when I read the article right now, it sounds like it's an ad. I mean no offence, but it does sound like something that they would put in a press-release. At wikipedia, we don't do that. We try to describe just the bare facts and nothing else. I'm sure that if you let the facts speak for themselves, The United One Heart Foundation will come off looking great. I have no doubt that it will, it sounds like a wonderful organization. Oskar 00:02, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article ready to be put back?

I'm sorry for not responding for a while, it was an honest mistake :) I think you did a much better job of it, it's a fine article now. I loved that you put in a few references there, we love that! I did a fairly big edit for style to make it look more like a "wikipedia" article, but you did a great job! Read through it again and see if I did anything strange. If you give me your OK, I'll move it back into the main namespace. Cheers! Oskar 03:29, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

I've moved it back, it's now at United OneHeart Foundation. I let the admin that deleted it know (it's only fair), but I don't think it will be deleted again. If it is, it would most likely be taken to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, which means that you can make a case for it too be included. However, I don't think it will be, but I'll be keeping an eye on it just in case. Let me know if you need any more help with anything else that is related to wikipedia, I'm here to help :) Cheers!

  • 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!

[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.
  • Before we sign off, Advance New Year Wishes, everyone.

If you think it may qualify for GA/FA status, first consider submitting the article for peer review.
