[edit] Tamil To Do page

Hi, I just made some suggestions on the To Do page for Tamil. But the edits don't show up. Possibly something to do with moderation? --Chandrachoodan Gopalakrishnan

It takes a while when we transclude other pages content. You can now see that they've come correctly. In the future, after adding a TO DO item to the Tamil page, click on the purge the cache link in Talk:Tamil language below the TO DO box. -- Sundar \talk \contribs 12:23, 25 November 2005 (UTC)

P.S. Please do not add your comments to the archives in my talk page. I might miss them.

[edit] Your change to the Chola Infobox template

I notice that you have inserted your change to the Preceding state entry in the Chola infobox. This is incorrect as noted in my edit summary. Pallavas did not preceed the Cholas. The Chola dynasty article deals with the Cholas from the Early Cholas upto the Chalukya Cholas. Pallavas only came during the interim period when the Cholas were in decline. As this is a Feature article please do not make unilateral changes without discussing firt in the Talk pages. - Parthi 06:36, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] PutVote.com

A tag has been placed on PutVote.com, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because it is an article about a certain website, blog, forum, or other web content that does not assert the importance or significance of that web location. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles, as well as notability guidelines for websites. Please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on Talk:PutVote.com. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. --Finngall talk 06:30, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Just remember--we're not psychic. We can only judge an article on what's there, not what's going to be there. If you wish to recreate the article with more information, I suggest creating a subpage of your userpage and working on it there before copying the result to the article itself. Just make sure that there is enough content there to justify its inclusion under Wikipedia's notability guidelines. Thanks, and take care. --Finngall talk 06:43, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] PutVote.com

My speedy deletion wasn't the final say as to whether an article should exist - simply that the article as it was did not give any reason why the site mattered. Please feel free to write an article that gives a bit more detail as to why the site is important. News mentions, estimates on popularity from reliable sources, financial figures, etc etc. would all help. The problem with the article as I deleted it was that it mentioned none of this.

[edit] Re: Biasing of Indian articles

Dear Chandrachoodan Gopalakrishnan,

I am requesting your assistance in dealing with a user who routinely biases indian articles by interweaving discredited colonial theories, original research, and fanwank.

  • He has knitted together 3 maps (2 of which are inaccurate and mischaracterized) and stated that the indo greeks ruled all over northern india and parts of Maharashtra (debunked and discredited colonial theories) [[1]]
  • He has rejected compromise and reneged on agreements.
  • He has committed original research violations by interpreting primary sources directly and has created inaccurate maps that he changes at his own whim)[[2]]
  • He has wrongly credited foreign influences on india ranging from astronomy (he originally wrote that the greeks gave india astronomy) to mahayana buddhism
  • He wrote that the greeks helped chandragupta conquer the nandas (contradicted by eminent scholars)
  • He engages in fanwank (i.e. Yamuna page where he insists that seleucus' campaigns be mentioned, even when he did not reach the yamuna, simply because people who like greek history--as he does--would find that interesting. Must we add the british, dutch, and turkish discoveries as well?)

As such, I would greatly appreciate your assistance. If you could please add your support in my appeal to the wikipedia administration in correcting the Indo Greek article (which he rules as a personal fiefdom), that would make a big difference. His work is quietly diluting the accuracy and quality of indian articles, and I truly hope we can put end to that. Users vastu, pavanapuram,windy city dude, and mahitgar have already called that contributor's practices into question. Your assistance and voice would be welcome. Thank you for your time and understanding.

Regards,

Devanampriya 22:16, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
