[edit] language populations

Hi Thanneer,

I see you added "significant numbers" of speakers of several Indian languages to various countries in List of languages by number of native speakers. Do you have sources for these claims? We've spent a good deal of time squaring all the data with Ethnologue 15, and arguing for any changes on the talk page. Ethnologue isn't always very reliable, so we're happy to change, but if we don't verify everything, the article quickly becomes useless. (Like having 250 million speakers of Turkish, or a significant number of native Spanish speakers in Bangladesh.)

[edit] Tamil Population Figures - References???

300 000 Tamils in UK, USA, and Canada. Where is this data from? Are these guess estimates? What is the basis for these assertations? --Natkeeran 14:28, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of NRIs

I reverted your edits because I believed they could be interpreted as vandalism. If it was not, please contact me on my talk page. Be warned. Scienceman123 04:03, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

By that I mean the mass removal of content as well as re-inserting spelling mistakes. Scienceman123 04:11, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kumar

An article you created Kumar (drag queen) (I moved it for more descriptive naming) has been nominated for deletion and a bunch of tags were added to it. Can you help me to improve it, especially to find sources that confirm all the claims in the article? This is not meant to encourage you to "vote" in the AfD, but if you do choose to participate in it, I recommend you note a) this message, and b) that you are the page's creator, for full disclosure. Thanks and cheers!--Kchase02 T 04:35, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks Chase for noticing very quickly. I wanted to creat an articlwe on Kumar and found an article on transgenders in Singapore, and cut and paste from there. It is a temporary measure until I find time and obtain the sources to write a better article. You may delete the page for now, if you believe the page is misinforming. Regards Thanneer 04:39, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
OK, I stubbed it, but it could still use a lot more attention if you can find those sources!--Kchase02 T 03:21, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
