[edit] Joshna Chinappa

Hi! That line was added by an annoymous user, and since nobody was watching the page, it went unnoticed. I've removed the sentence, since it was obvious that it was vandalism. You should be BOLD (click the link), and jump in to edit. It is possible to revert to previous versions of the article any time (See Help:Reverting ). So dont worry at all about making mistakes. Keep up the good work! Cheers! -- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK 16:15, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stub sorting at Naval Physical and Oceanographic Laboratory

To be honest, I'm not sure if science-stub was the way to go. Come to think of it, I think there's an oceanography-stub. I think I will use that one instead. Thanks for the help. It's always good to have a second (or third or fourth...) pair of eyes take a look at stub-sorts. Have a great day and happy editing! Amalas =^_^= 02:31, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stub sorting at EAMCET

The article you sorted as "India-university-stub". But it is an examination conducted by an indipendant body, the merit list which is taken into account by all the universities. So it should not be university stub logically. I searched for an exmination stub or something of that kind but could not find it. so I left it as is. Can you suggest as solution? -(Huntscorpio 16:17, 5 June 2006 (UTC))

I will have to agree that India-university-stub is probably not the way to go. As far as I know, there is no "examination" stub or anything like that. Probably the best you can do is double-stub it with both {{edu-stub}} and {{India-stub}}. Amalas =^_^= 17:20, 5 June 2006 (UTC)


done :-) anirudh 17:39, 5 June 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Hey Anirudh

I'm basically from Andhra Pradesh, currently in B.Tech 4th year in E.C.E in JIIT, Noida. I'm a newbie myself. I registered some time earlier but I only edit on off when I'm free.

The current stub looks a lot better. Lets leave it as is for now and hope the article gets upgraded in the near future. --Harsha,17:47, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hmm...

4th year I meant that I just completed my 3rd year. The placements are going on. Hope I'll get placed or I better pack my bags for MS. The college and Noida are cool enough. But the climate here is terrible - scorching summers & bizarre winters. Monsoon is literally non-existent. It rains when it feels like be it summer or winter.

Lets hope Wikipedia grows. It has come a long way when most of the articles are just stubs. Now any search on google yields a wikipedia article in its first page of search results - Now thats something isn't it?

You can contact me too, like ebooks or any tech related stuf if u want: hunt.scorpio@gmail.com -- Harsha, 18:27, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User page as stub

no problem :) stub templates have an automatic category link in them so the page was listed in a stubs category. substing the template meant I could get at the cat link and take it out. hope you enjoy being a wikipedia editor! BL Lacertae - kiss the lizard 23:56, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Linking

Hey Gingerjoos, I note you linking standalone year dates, such as in M.K. Thyagaraja Bagavadhar which I reverted. The Manual of Style says "Not every year listed in an article needs to be wikilinked. Ask yourself: will clicking on the year bring any useful information to the reader?". Hope this helps. Cheers. Moriori

I'm pretty much a newbie here. Perhaps a week old :-). Thank you for checking things out and reverting. I guess I must read the MoS more carefully. Happy editing! --anirudh 02:38, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
No probs. You have been here less than two weeks and have two usernames. I'm intrigued. Moriori 06:35, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hello

So happily wikediting?

[edit] No book.

Unfortunately the book abt temples is at home.

[edit] Dan Negru

You don't necessarily have to cancel your edit. Most of the time, the other person changed something that is unrelated to your change, so you just have to put your change back in and save it. For example, say the article said this at first:

Bob is an awesome person. He is the coolest.

Then, you try to edit it to say:

Bob is a great person. He is the coolest.

However, when you do that, it comes up with an edit conflict. It should display the 'new' article, based on what the other person changed. Say it now looks like this:

Bob is an awesome person. He is the best.

Since the other person's change is unrelated to yours, you can go ahead and put your change back in and save it, so the article would then read:

Bob is a great person. He is the best.

I probably explained too much, but I like to err on the side of more detail rather than less.

Regarding the stub-sort, yes {{tv-bio-stub}} would be viable. I try not to double-stub in most cases, and also tv-bio-stub is a little confusing to me as it could mean a variety of things (news anchor, cameraman, show host, etc). You can go ahead and put it on there. It wouldn't hurt. I hope that I was able to answer your questions. Have a great day and happy editing! Amalas =^_^= 15:07, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Well, double-stubbing isn't bad, per se, but we prefer to use one stub that is the most accurate. For example, {{Germany-writer-stub}} is a lot better than using both {{Germany-bio-stub}} and {{writer-stub}}. It reduces clutter and allows for better categorization. A guideline from Wikipedia:Stub#Categorizing stubs says: When marking articles as stubs, please be as precise and accurate as you possibly can. It saves other editors a lot of work further down the road. If an article overlaps a number of potential categories, more than one stub template may be used, but it is strongly recommended that only those relating to the subject's main notability be used. I guess that doesn't really answer your question, because there's no real definite answer and each stub-sorter has slightly different opinions. Double-stubbing is generally okay, but not preferred, and triple-stubbing is generally frowned upon. Anything more than that is just ridiculous. =) Amalas =^_^= 15:23, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ROWPU

Hi! To answer your question; yes, the ROWPU was designed and made for military use. There are water treatment and desalinization plants around the world that use reverse osmosis, but the specific term Reverse Osmosis Water Purification Unit refers to the various devices that are used in the feild during military operations. I'm currently enlisted in the US Air Force as a Utilities Systems specialist (AFSC: 3E451) and one of my jobs is the setup, operation and maintainance of ROWPUs and contingency water distribution systems. I do know a bit more about them than is in the article, but I am by no means an expert as to their function or design. I'll add more to it in the future, but I'm hoping a real expert on the subject will take over. Thanks for the interest! Happy editing. :) Kajmal 04:37, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

The wikipedia page doesn't explain it very well. The About.com Air Force Enlisted Job Descriptions and Qualification Factors page explains it much better. 3E4X1 is Utilities Systems. We deal with water and waste water and all the stuff that goes along with them. Treatment, storage, distribution, plumbing, waste water collection, sewers and waste water treatment.
3E4 are a family of careers that deal with fluids moving through pipes and containers that are NOT on aircraft. 3E4X2 deal with fuels and oils and the pipelines that carry them. 3E4X3 deal with pesticides and the containers and pipes that have to do with that. The 5 in my AFSC identifies me as a journeyman in my skill. When dealing with the general career field and not a specific skill, an X is used in place of the skill level identifier. Hope that explains it! :) Kajmal 21:06, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Chinmaya Vidyalaya

Hey! I'm doing great. Hope you are too.
I had created stubs of almost all the schools and colleges in Kochi, at the time I put the Kochi article for a peer review. Great work expanding the article! In fact, I've been through your list of contributions, and here is a little something for you. Congrats — you earned it! And happy editing! -- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK18:03, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Now its my turn to feel honoured. Thank you so much, Gingerjoos. :-) -- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK09:16, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia talk:Notice board for India-related topics/Kerala

Hello! Can you please add Wikipedia talk:Notice board for India-related topics/Kerala to your watchlist, so that you don't miss out on the Kerala related discussions? Thanks! -- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK12:12, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Quizzing

Hey, I noticed you mentioning that you were an avid quizzer. So undoubtedly you must be interested in the India Quiz on wikipedia. But beware, its very addictive. ;-) -- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK10:04, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Most of the questions you will find in PINQ will be really complex. Its made so to avoid people from easily googling out the answers. I'm taking a look at the Kitu Gidwani article. Great work on it till now. We could use a filmogrphy template as used in Asin Thottumkal, I think. I dont think much can be done about the links, but perhaps we can convert the link on top [1] into a reference (using ref tags as detailed in WP:CITE). Lets see..-- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK14:05, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
I've added the filmography templates. But they arent arranged in the choronological order. Actually, in the quiz, Gurubrahma (talk • contribs) says that she was the highest paid actress in India till 1990. If that is the case, then we might be able to get this page featured on the main page under the Did you know section. But before nominating, you should get a picture of the actress. Also, we need a reference for the claim that she is indeed the highest-paid model. Perhaps you can contact Gurubrahma (talk • contribs) and ask him for the ref? -- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK14:37, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
(PS: Remember that this has to be done within 5 days of creation of the article per the rules of Did you know.)
No, that wouldnt matter in this case, I believe. Anyway, there is no harm in nominating. :-) -- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK14:57, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
Hmmm...you could perhaps mention that in a seperate "Trivia" section. -- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK15:44, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kitu Gidwani

Hi, great work! I'm not sure abt the source for the fact I mentioned on WP:PINQ because I read it many years ago. --Gurubrahma 16:58, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Yes, you can use that image in case no free use licensed ones are available. However without the ref, it cant make into DYK.  :( -- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK14:05, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Knock Knock

Look who's here. And see this. Hope I didnt cause a heart attack, lol. -- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK08:25, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Happy New Year!

ചിങ്ങമാസം വന്നേ.....ഓണം ഇനി ദിവസങ്ങള്‍ മാത്രം അകലെ... ഈ കാത്തിരിപ്പിനും ഒരു സുഖം.....പുതുവല്‍സരാശംസകള്‍ നേരുന്നു....ഈ വര്‍ഷം സന്തോഷങ്ങളും ഐശ്വര്യങ്ങളും നിറഞ്ഞതായിരിക്കെട്ടെ എന്നാശംസിക്കുന്നു-- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK14:45, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Opinion on Model Engineering College#Model Engineering college students group (yahoo)

Hi Anirudh, I think we should avoid putting those yahoo group links. Maybe we can have links to sites of different associations or clubs in MEC. That too links that will be of common interest, and not pertaining to a single class or batch. And what about putting a better photo of MEC. Sonyjose 06:33, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
