Hi! Just dropped in to say welcome. Have a nice stay in Wikipedia.--Dwaipayan (talk) 11:00, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
A warm welcome, again. Victor 23:54, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Welcome here. We need a lot of Bengali wikipedians to write about articles related to Bengal. By the way, have you checked out the Bengali wikipedia? We need more people, especially those from West Bengal, to work on the articles. Thanks. --Ragib 01:23, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Ha ha, great to know you here in en wiki too. :) I was actually on a wikibreak during my visit to BD, so it took me so long to do the bn-wiki-advertisement to you. Anyway, please keep up your work in bn wiki ... you are doing great. Thanks. --Ragib 08:30, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I like your suggestion, I want to contribute to the bangla wiki but my system has lot of trouble with fonts. I am using an ubuntu operating system which does not have many features that are useful for typing in bengali. And the fonts that come with it have the worst possible layouts. I have a plan to improve the eng wiki bengali poetry related pages gradually. thank you for stopping by, Jeroje 00:33, 9 February 2007 (UTC)jeroje

[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia:WikiProject India

Welcome!

Hi, and welcome to the India WikiProject! We're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of India.

A few features that you might find helpful:

There are a variety of interesting things to do within the project; you're free to participate however much—or little—you like:

  • Want to know how good our articles are? The assessment department is working on rating the quality of every India article in Wikipedia.
  • Can you code? The automation department uses automated and semi-automated methods to perform batch tasks that would be tedious to do manually.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask another fellow member, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! ­ Kris (talk) 03:28, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Wikipedia-logo-hi.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Wikipedia-logo-hi.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Hi. I noticed you added a 'User:Wolf' complete with signature to the members list, but the user does not exist. Was this some kind of mistake and would you like to join the WikiProject yourself? Wikiwoohoo 18:00, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Oops, it was a big mistake... I used "Wolf" as my nickname; and added that in my signature. So, just to make things clear, I would like to participate in that project and User:Wolf is actually User:Akut (me). Thank you for notifying me. --Wolftalk 18:09, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

no there's no system in place - whenever anyone feels like changing it they can help themselves! DJR (T) 17:26, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

If you understand the way in which it works then I don't see any reason why not. Although at first glance the formatting of the template is quite dull - it'd be nice if we could maintain the format that is there are present. DJR (T) 10:58, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi! Thanks for incorporating the infobox. I corrected the population density and Infant Mortality Rates, which should be mean of two entities (WB and BD). The area under municipal corporation of Dhaka is 360 sq. km and that of 185 km². So Dhaka should be the larger one. --Dwaipayan (talk) 09:54, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject India Newsletter: Volume II, Issue 2 - March 2007

Project News
  • Jimbo's visit to India and the WikiCamp in Chennai: Jimbo recently visited India in late February and early March on wiki work. This included a trip to a WikiCamp in Chennai. The one day conference attracted 300 participants from across India and beyond dealt with issues facing wikis ([1]). It was widely covered by the press, eg The Hindu( [2]), which cited the efforts of Bhadani (edit count), Sundar (leadership on Tamil Wikipedia) and Ganeshk (Creation of Ganeshbot to create articles on Indian towns from census figures). Ganeshk himself travelled from California to attend the conference.
  • Wikipedia Weekly 15: Wikipedia Weekly, a informal Wikipedians' program that purports to give "A weekly audio roundup of Wikipedia happenings with news, interviews and roundtable discussions" recently interviewed two prominent editors Rama's Arrow and Ragib(listen). The entire 34 minute interview was entirely about the world of Indian subcontinent wiki-happenings, and was the first episode which was not entirely dominated by discussion of wiki-politics and wiki-bureaucracy, with the host Witty lama praising the efficiency of the project and its proliferation of featured content. Rama's Arrow cited the team spirit, friendship and respect among project members in discussing its success and FA productivity, as well as discussing subcontinental wiki-conflict. Ragib talked also of his public campaign to raise awareness of the Bengali Wikipedia in his native Bangladesh, which has seen a 30-fold increase in article count over the past year.
What's New?
Congratulations to all contributors who helped to develop the above content to represent the best of Wikipedia!
Need some help?

Are you stuck at a point where admin help is needed? There are 21 Indian Administrators in Wikipedia at the last count. If you need some help with anything related to WikiProject India, they are just a couple of clicks away!

Note from Editor's Desk
  • Welcome to the March 2007 edition of our newsletter.
  • Congratulations to one of our most reespected writers, bureaucrats and administrators, Nichalp, who is now entrusted with the oversight permission. In addition Riana has joined the administrative ranks after a successful RfA.
  • On a sad note, Nobleeagle, who was responsible for the creation of the Punjab WikiProject, and was largely responsible for Indian cricket team, Bhagat Singh and Lage Raho Munna Bhai becoming GAs, as well as working heavily in Indian religious and cricket work, has left the project after having his identity revealed.
  • More generally, certain Indian users have recently been subject to real life harassment by banned users, etc. If this is affecting you in real life, please do not hesitate to contact Wikimedia board members for assistance, or ask a senior Wikipedian to solicit help on your behalf if required.
  • Nishkid64, a prolific contributor and administrator, is currently undergoing surgery to fix a congenital heart defect. You can wish him well here.
  • Weekly Collaboration (Shortcut:WP:INCOTW): Collaboration of the Week has fallen from its once high feats. Please drop by and help rejuvenate it.
  • 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. Sponsored content for recruitments within your WikiProject sub-groups are also welcome, including requests for copyediting, photographic work, peer review, etc. We'll be very happy to include them here.
This edition special
  • Translation Department: Can you read and write any languages of India? Do you know multiple languages and are looking to keep your skills at a high level or improve them? If so, the Translation Depeartment may be for you!

The translation department of the India WikiProject aims to utilize high-quality non-English material related to India for the goals of the project. This includes both translating articles from and to other-language Wikipedias as well as assisting contributors with non-English sources. The department aims to provide services in transliteration, formulating scripts for various languages, as well as translating articles from one language to another and validating sources in other languages to that of the encyclopedia article. If you are looking for a friendly translator here is your go-to point. Currently, we are still seeking representation for Kashmiri, Nepali, Oriya, Sindhi and Tulu, as well as reinforcements in all other languages.

[edit] Robot

Ursäkta att jag har dröjt att svara. Jag finns koderna till Ganeshbot skickade till mig och lyckades sisådär sätta mig in i hur den fungerade. Dock var problemet att ganeshbot var uppbyggd så att den blev användbar först när man hade en ganska stor databas som kan läggas upp på en wiki. Mitt problem var det omvända, jag har en mycket liten databas men vill kunna lägga på material på många olika wikis samtidigt. Hittils har jag använt mig av ett worddokument, där jag översatt genom 'ersätt allt' och sedan klistrat in i respektive wiki. Jag lägger upp den filen på User:Soman/Part. --Soman 07:29, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Jag har nu testat översättningar på ett 20-tal wikipedior, med varierande resultat. Problem har dock funnits med en mängd grammatiska problem i flera språk (t.ex. genitiv). Inledningsvis var det ganska smidigt, men att manuellt klippa och klistra 60-tal artiklar blir lite bökigt. Jag tänker mig att man kan börja bygga ut databasen, annonsera om den på olika diskussionssidor på wikipedia och när man når typ 500-700 partier börja tillämpa automatisk uppläggning av artiklar. --Soman 14:42, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

It's pretty good. Why don't you raise it to the rest of the Wikiproject? --khaosworks (talkcontribs) 09:23, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Sydneynewman.JPG

Hello Akut, an automated process has found an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, such as fair use. The image (Image:Sydneynewman.JPG) was found at the following location: User:Akut/Doctor Who Portal/Selected articles/4. This image or media will be removed per statement number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media will be replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg , so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. The image that was replaced will not be automatically deleted, but it could be deleted at a later date. Articles using the same image should not be affected by my edits. I ask you to please not re-add the image to your userpage and could consider finding a replacement image licensed under either the Creative Commons or GFDL license or released to the public domain. Thanks for your attention and cooperation. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 21:38, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] U2 FAC

Hi Akut / Wolf: You served my father in the clone wars ... er, that is to say ... you supported the U2 article during its last FAC, and I was hoping if you'd be so kind as to give it a once over and perhaps support it again on the current FAC? Any review/comments are of course much appreciated by me and the other editors. Regards. Wikipedia brown (talk) 09:41, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
