[edit] Welcome !

Good to have another Mallu here :) Tintin 11:51, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

Do you have any specific areas of interest ? I am from Muvattupuzha, btw. Tintin 16:16, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

I go to ml.wiki once in a while but never attempted to edit anything. Haven't done much about Kerala in en.wiki also, but am planning to improve articles about writers (by looking up some Malayalam encyclopaedia) sometime in the future. Tintin 18:05, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

Can you please keep Wikipedia:WikiProject_Deletion_sorting/India on the watch list and vote if anything interesting turns up. Tintin 00:46, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hello

I saw some of your edits, and they were really fine. Please continue. We shall surely interact more. Happy New Year. --Bhadani 16:54, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] AFD process

Hi Raghu, I've just noticed that you've listed Mandodi Kannan for AFD. However, you've completed only the first two steps of the AFD process and not the third. I've done it this time. Please see Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion#How_to_list_pages_for_deletion for a better idea. --Gurubrahma 13:15, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] nic.in

I think it can be used after tagging it with PD-IndiaGov. I'll check with someone else and confirm. Tintin 12:11, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Sorry, they cannot be used. India govt pics are not in the public domain. Tintin 12:51, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

- Sorry, sradhichilla :) Tintin 14:57, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wishes

I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. --Bhadani 17:15, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Victoria

Hey! it seems that there is no article related to traditional horse carriages which were used in many parts of india. I think they were referred as "tanga" and also Victorias or Baggies used by the princely maharajas. Can you create an article on that. Since long I am not able to create any new articles. Thanks and Regards.

[edit] Malayalam wiki

You should also consider contributing to the Malyalam Wiki and if possible Tamil Wiki too. -- Sundar ^{\talk \contribs} 12:22, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Kerala Map

Hi, I noticed that the Kerala map that you put in the Kerala page has been removed and you have copied the contends to your sandbox. I liked the colouring scheme that you used in that map, but the boundaries of the states in your map are not accurate. In case you plan to work on the map more you could use the previous map as the base map(which shows the boundaries accurately). Thanks and Regards. --Raghu 19:06, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

Actually, I did (partially) use Nichalp's map as my base. If you could point out my boundary errors (compared to Nichalp's map), that'd be great. Thanks. Saravask 19:24, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding languages

Hello Ragu, I am not the person who added the languages, it was somebody else who added all that. I was only rearranging it.

[edit] Lets bring all Kerala Wikipedians under one list

Hello! I've created a template Template:User KERALA wiki as well as a category, Category:Kerala_Wikipedians in an effort to bring together all the Kerala Wikipedians. I believe there are no such existing categories. So, please add either the template (which will automatically add the category) or the category to your userpage. Thanks! thunderboltz 06:01, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] P T Usha

Oops! I'm sorry, but I really didnt notice that the history would be lost. (You learn somethign new everyday on wikipedia :P ) I'll certainly make a move request to an admin, but I am a bit busy till tomorrow afternoon. I just got a minute on the computer now. Maybe you could contact an admin yourself, or I'll definitely do that by tomorrow evening. thunderboltz 06:46, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Okay. I have informed User:Bhadani.

[edit] Proposed deletion of Pollachi

Hi there. I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Pollachi, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Pollachi. If you remove the {{dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

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

Where are you these days ?

Can you please add Wikipedia talk:Notice board for India-related topics/Kerala to the watchlist and comment on Wikipedia talk:Notice board for India-related topics/Kerala#Pointless articles Tintin (talk) 17:43, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Re. the arguments in the noticeboard, if you have Logan's Malabar Manual, can you please check if it contains any accounts of Mamankam. Tintin (talk) 09:31, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you. Looks a very useful source. Tintin (talk) 14:45, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Hey Ragu kutta! Long time no see. :-)

Tintin was pointing me to this great find of yours — just what the doctor ordered. My only worry now, is that I cant pester Tintin to go through Padmanabha Menon's Kochi Rajyacharithram anymore. :-(

Oh well, all good things come at a price. Cheers, and happy editing! -- thunderboltz^{a.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK}16:17, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Hai... I hope to get active again but still lacking that driving force... i log in every few days and check what you guys are doing... you are doing some really great work.... ok cya --Raghu 17:37, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you. Waiting to see you back active again. -- thunderboltz^{a.k.a.Deepu Joseph |TALK}06:07, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Location template

Hi Raghu. Noticed you use the locator maps a bit. Would you know if there is a template to superimpose multiple spots on maps ? thanks Shyamal 11:45, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pradip Somasundaran

This is a message to all Category:Kerala Wikipedians

I want your opinion on this particular person Pradip Somasundaran. He claims to be a famous singer in Kerala. Now being a Malayalee, I have not heard of this person before, so I wonder whether or not you have heard of him before and set this issue straight. If so, then please let your opinion be counted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pradip Somasundaran. Please note that by voicing your opinion as a Malayalee/Keralite will add more weight to your words.

Many Thanks --Ageo020 21:42, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Hello Raghu! Thank you for the confidence shown in me during my recently concluded RfA, which succeeded with a final tally of 77/2/0 . I'm still exploring the new tools, so feel free to tell me of any mistakes I might make. In case you need help with anything, just drop me a message. Thanks again; and here's wishing you and your loved ones a belated happy Diwali and an early Eid!--thunderboltz^(Deepu) 08:13, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Great work ! The Oriental Scops Owl call is esp. useful given that many printed form books have messed up on calls. Shyamal 03:56, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks Shyamal! --Raghu 05:07, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Noticed your nice Discophora lepida photograph. Perhaps you were on the Siruvani bird survey ? Shyamal 02:05, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes I was there in the survey. The earlier ones from Parambikulam were also while on the survey. I have heard about you from Praveen. --Raghu 10:53, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
