[edit] Your message

Unexplained= You did not take the time to explain the major changes/additions to the article. Please use the edit summary. Unsourced= You did not provide a citation, "2007 has been a pretty quiet year", that could be interpreted as your personal POV. Also, most of the information you added is probably recentism, "Eminem's album is anticipated", you should just write a paragraph for the history of Shady Records in 2007 at the end of the year when all the events unfolded. Also, I don't believe that much is needed for some EP by Ca$his. We should focus more on their studio albums. You can say their albums are anticipated in the albums' articles. That article should only report the history like the way you did before. It does not mention that any of the other albums were anticipated, and mentioning this belongs at WikiNews but not here. That's the place for current events. Thank you. --- Realest4Life 12:55, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Oh wait, I was wrong when I said they were unexplained. I simply did not notice it. I apologize. --- Realest4Life 12:59, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
OK, I've changed it so that we can both agree with the current version (for now, at least). It does mention Ca$his' EP, because the album was actually released, but I don't think we need to mention Eminem's and 50 Cent's albums yet. Not until they are released. Tell me if you like the current version. --- Realest4Life 14:15, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
No problem, it's all good. Good work, and happy editing. --- Realest4Life 18:14, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
He is linked,

In 2006, Shady Records had their seventh artist, by the name of Ca$his, signed to the label. Ca$his is an Orange County-based rapper that was born in Chicago.

The first mention of Ca$his there is linked, check to see. --- Realest4Life 19:07, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
Well, the first time Ca$his is mentioned in the article (not the artist roster table), he is also linked to his article. I think that is what you meant. However, if by "WikiMod" you mean administrator, then no, I am not an administrator. I've just been around for some time so now I am familiar with most of the rules and formatting styles, and content issues. If you need assistance, ask me for help, I will help you as much as I can. Keep up the good work and happy editing. --- Realest4Life 19:46, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Actually, I added it a few hours before after I noticed you added it to the Aftermath article. So it's all cool. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 01:36, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, well, go to "My Preferences" at the top, then when you're there check "Raw Signature", add [[User:Harish101|text you would like to add goes here]]. I used to have a main page, but I didn't really like it so I deleted it, however, neat ones can be found on User:Ayoleftyz's page, he copied his from mine, or User:NJ Rock's page. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 01:44, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

You're not bothering me! I don't know how to do it yet, but I think you should take a look at this WP:ARCHIVE. If you have anymore questions, feel free to ask me. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 01:59, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Nah man, you don't have to return the favor, I'm just doing this because I think you're a pretty cool dude, if you need anymore help, you know where my talk page is. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 03:00, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Have I given a problem with an image and its copyright? Then READ HERE

I get it, I have a lot of files uploaded and some which are infringements (though I'll never understand the ones about the CD covers...). PLEASE note that I uploaded these a very long time ago, before I really knew what I was doing on here, and I just wanted to contribute by adding to the articles how I thought would be beneficial for the readers.

If you spot any more problems, instead of giving me several paragraphs, please just SIMPLY (layman's terms) state in a couple of lines what I can do to sort it out.

Thank you.

Just one thing, although this message might affect some users' approach, bots won't read this and will go on with the automated messages. There are templates, so you add something like "message1" and you get those paragraphs or something like that. Also users that are in a hurry most likely won't read this anyway. Just thought you should know. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 03:07, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, not just bots, but any user can give you this message, like for vandalism I think. I don't know what they are (because I don't care that much about this ish), or where to find them, so I can't help you there. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho?

[edit] Hey

What's up? I'm doing my accounting homework LOL, boring shit. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 22:51, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Ummm... I'm grade 11... and it's workplace level (I live in Canada, so it might be different over there, I'm assuming you live in the U.S.), but I also took it for University level, cuz I just didn't know what to take, out of 8 courses, two are accounting and two are history, I just didn't know what to take LOL, everyone else was having trouble deciding which courses to take and which not to take, I was like "man you guys are faggots" cuz it was so easy for them. At least I got rap music. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 22:58, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
It's hard for me, I'll probably go with accounting, like, my career, and I started editing Wikipedia back in like April 2006, I don't know exactly when, but I started off by editing soccer articles, then, by like February I was really into it (and I'm not some nerd, I'm just an average guy, but it's so addictiing lol), and I started editing rap pages. I think one of the first pages I ever edited was G-Unit vs. The Game feud. Now I edit Curtis, Detox, etc. How about you? --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 23:32, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
By the way, I sorted out that ish with the offensive word. It's cool. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 03:26, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
I know, it's just so cool that you can actually change this stuff yourself, and then thousands of readers will read those pages, and I see you've met my homie Spellcast lol. Do you have an MSN or Yahoo Messenger e-mail address or something like that? Keep in touch, you know. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 16:04, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

"Is there some d-low way to pass my addy over?" - What lol? Sorry but I didn't get what you were trying to say. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 00:39, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Oh wait nevermind, lol. Just leave me a message and I'll remove it after. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 00:40, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
I don't know lol, we just kind of edited the same hip-hop pages for a while and got to know each other, I would ask for his advice on a lot of things, he would ask for mine on some things, so yeah, and I also talk to Ayoleftyz, JpGrB, and I have a few other people that I'm cool with. There are a lot of cool people here, of course there are some that just want to mess up shit and things like that, but yeah, there aren't that many of them forum nerds or whatever, or at least I didn't run into any of them around here haha. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 00:55, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
I just added you, btw. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 01:03, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
I need advice sometimes regarding rules, when to use something and when not to use something, how to deal with other editors, formatting, all kinds of things, not the basic stuff though, I think I got that stuff under control, and nah man, all the stuff you see is old, your message is the only recent one that is still on-going, because as soon as someone leaves me a new message, I try to respond back ASAP, I feel it's the right thing to do. Or I just open up a new tab or something and both continue convos and edit. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 01:11, 24 September 2007 (UTC)


I'm only saying this because I noticed you were using the old way of formatting refs, you shouldn't use that template anymore, instead, this is the way to format it: <ref>Shaheem Reid ([[September 22]] [[2007]]). [URL Title]. MTV (date of publishing may go here if there is no author). Accessed [[September 23]] [[2007]].</ref> Also, you may use a ref twice in an article by naming it, so, for example, the first time you use the ref you simply use <ref name=mtv> instead of <ref>, and then the second time you use it (and third and fourth, etc.) you just use <ref name=mtv/>

Hope that helps. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 01:06, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

OK, just to see if you got it, wikify (that's what it's called, formatting the ref) this for me.

Put the text between this ish <nowiki></nowiki>, and, just so you know, some words like, "about", "of", "the", "on", etc. are NOT supposed to be capitalized, even if the title capitalizes it. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 01:17, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Multi-tasking lmao, you're a funny dude, yeah, I thought about archiving this ish, but then I feel like I wanna get up to 200 lmao, it's one of my ambitions (as a ridah!). --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 01:21, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Yo are you still there lol? Just so you know, I gtg in like a half hour, Boondocks is coming on, do you guys have Boondocks in the UK? Funniest ish ever, here's a sick website: [1] --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 01:31, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

You did great, just a few minor things, yeah, you should include the nickname, if that's how he/she credits himself/herself, and you don't need to add the Hip Hop Charts in the title, that's under the section it's in I think, and I think it's SOHH, all capitalized, it's cuz of the funny logo, but when you're under one of their sections, it's like SOHH Soulful, so yeah. Overall, great, and yeah, I got that website off of YouTube, NEW SEASON coming soon! Damn, you guys get Cartoon Network? Lucky bastards, we fucking get Teletoon. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 01:42, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

It will air in October, I think. I just love Ruckus, he's the funniest, and yeah, you're welcome for the tips, you can ask me for help any time, I got time to help out homies, knowing how to wikify refs is a pretty big one, now you'll have harder ones, but it's good that you know how to wikify refs, and yeah, Teletoon actually isn't bad, but I like Cartoon Network (I used to live in Europe, eastern Euro, then I moved to Canada in '04, and we had Cartoon Network there), do they still have Ed Ed n Eddy? That shit is dope lmao. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 01:53, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
GTG, will be back on in an hour, to reply and I'm out. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 02:00, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
Oh ok, talk to you later, I'm from Romania, btw. So you're Indian? I have an Indian friend in real life too. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 02:01, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
Oh yeah! --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 19:35, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

I don't know, Aftermath and Shady are record labels, so I don't think they deserve one (I honestly don't know why they made one for the "G-Unit family", they should at least make one for UMG and Interscope before they do that, you know?), and I really have no experience in making templates, I'm assuming you just copy that code thing from some other templates, but I don't really do templates lol. That's how I think you can make a template, as for sandboxes, they're easy to make, create a page called "User:Harish101/Sandbox", I mean, search for it, it will be red, then just add whatever you want to it, it will automatically be a subpage of your userpage. I didn't guess you're Indian lol, I saw your comment on Riana's talk page, and you didn't say Native Indian so I just assumed you meant Asian Indian. I moved to Canada because my parents wanted to move and stuff, Romania's pretty fucked up. The adjustment? Meh, it wasn't that hard for me, as soon as you make some friends you're good. Peace. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 16:47, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Yo, just so you know, I gtg back to school right now, cuz I came home for lunch, so I'll be back in like 2 hours or so and we can continue this convo. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 17:23, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

OK, yes, I had a good lunch lol. Romania, I don't really wanna talk about it lol, it's pretty much run by idiot presidents and... it's just fucked lol, I'm surprised it's considered a "developing country", because it will be developing for another 50 years or so lol. You can show who signed it by checking the history, then I copy and paste the name {{Unsigned|HERE}}. Yeah, about UMG and Interscope, like, what's the point of having one for those imprints by Dre and Em if you don't have one yet for their parent companies, you know? And yeah, Boondocks will be sick, can't wait lol. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 19:21, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

The Interscope one is NICE, and just so you know, you can't have any "affiliations" or "related articles" in templates, it's supposed to have only articles DIRECTLY related to the subject. GTG, see ya later (in like 3 hours maybe). --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 22:19, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Nah, don't have all three in one template, it'll get real messy if you will show the albums too. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 16:33, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
I'll talk to you more about templates in a few hours, I'm a bit busy right now. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 16:35, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
Yo, I think you can find info about using templates here. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 19:24, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

So, other than templates, how's life lol? --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 16:38, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, chillin', a few days ago I had to work hard to get the DJ Pooh article to be kept, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DJ Pooh. I told Real Compton G I'd get 100 references, lol, and I did. --- --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 15:18, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, well, right now I'm trying to get like 500 songs I lost back. Since I started with M.O.P., I'm at Mobb Deep. Joy. --- --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 15:48, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
I mean I lost 500 songs and I'm trying to download all of them back. I had a playlist saved just before I lost them all, so that helps. --- --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 16:03, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
LOL! 500 PAGES! No, songs. See, what happened was, I recently started to use Windows Media Player again, and since I didn't use it in like 3 years, I forgot how it worked. One day I checked the library, and I was like, "why are these songs here? I don't want them here", so I removed all of them, not knowing that they would also be deleted from my music folder. Then, after I found out what happened, I was like, "... fuck". So I think I got like 200 or so back, but it's hard because some of them are mixtape songs, so I have to download the whole mixtape in some cases, just to get that one song back. Sucks balls. --- --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 23:50, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
Luckily, however, I had a "playlist" saved JUST BEFORE I removed those songs, so it's easy to see which ones are missing. --- --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 23:52, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
"I've got uTorrent at the ready, come October 9th, it's gonna be on the iPod for watching as I head to Uni... chea." - So the new season will premiere October 9th? That's when my birthday is! Sick! --- --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 00:01, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

I'll be 16, and I don't what I'll be doing yet. Didn't get the songs back yet. I got like half of them back, but there's still so many I'm missing. Anyway, don't have much time to talk. Peace. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 16:40, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Haha, thanks homie! By the way, when's your birthday? --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 21:13, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Just noticed your Samuel L. Jackson template. Sick. Keep 'em coming. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 21:16, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

I actually didn't do anything for my birthday this year. Didn't really feel like it, lol. I don't know yo, but they stopped showing The Boondocks last weekend, so maybe the new series starts this weekend instead, since they don't show it on week days. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 21:03, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I've been taking a "WikiBreak", too much stress, too much work, needed to get away from it. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 21:44, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: The Infamous (Mobb Deep song)

Hi Harish. These deletion notices (called "PRODS") are allowed to be removed at any time. So if you think the song can be improved, feel free to improve it. But honestly though, I think the song info can easily be mentioned in Blood Money. Hope that helps. Spellcast 06:18, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Nice Work

Yo, i kinda was lookin' through pages and i fell across urs, but nice work on the templates, they're lookin' good G, i think the Interscope-Geffen-A&M is tha best. Yeah, so keep the work up - Keep It Real - Real Compton G 17:20, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] FF film series

Great effort. I cleaned up one section for encyclopedic tone and remved the trivia section entirely. The two films' summaries need to be cleaned up for tone as well; both contain run-on sentences with multiple dependent clauses despte a lack of commas and punctuation. That said, I think the page is much better. I might suggest eliminating the cast chart, as it's heavily weighted to ff2, and instead simply focus on the main recurring cast of 6 actors, using a simple list style with one or two sentences each. For example:

  • XYZ (linked) as Alicia Masters (linked), a blind sculptor who attracts Ben Grimm in the first film, and is in a serious relationship with him in the second.

That would summarize the valuable cast and characters in a straight-forward manner without a chart with seems half empty on one side.

That said, your efforts have definitely improved the page overall. Keep up the good work. ThuranX 17:15, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Iron Man

Still, a lot of very big movies use the Super Bowl. Don't be surprised if that info dissapears one day, but for now I guess it could go back in. Alientraveller (talk) 14:40, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

I tend to put the cites under "References". Alientraveller (talk) 13:55, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hi Harish

Hi Harish - I'm fine with your suggestion about improving the B.A.P.S. wiki pages. Let me know how you want to move ahead. - WildTornado. wildT (talk) 16:09, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi Harish - In reply to your message: Sure, will have a look at your sandbox. I'm kinda busy right now, with a couple of assignments. I'm not really a frequent editor, but am available for any service that you require. I'm currently based in India. I've heard about Paramtatva Swami. I assume you're from London? wildT (talk) 07:43, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Akshardham (Delhi)

It looks pretty good so far. There are some issues with prose, but a thorough copyedit should fix those mistakes. You should probably replace the "Awards" section heading with "Guiness World Record". You can make the dispute a sub-section of "Guinness World Record". You also might want to merge the "Creator" section into the history. Before the temple development section, you can talk about Pramukh Swami Maharaj's previous projects with BAPS. The quote in the section could be moved to the "Opening ceremony" section. The part after the quote should go into the "History" section, before "Development". Also, you don't need to write down the quotes from the sources you are using.

I assume the "Temple features" section is the part you didn't finish yet. Leave me a message on my talk when you think the article's complete. I can copyedit and fix some other issues. Nishkid64 (talk) 17:42, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

No problem. I'm glad to be of assistance. The entire temple section would need references if you want to bring the article to Good Article status. Also, I did not think the article by Malik Rajiv was that long. If you want to keep the quotations, that's fine by me. I'm not sure if I understood this, but the quote by Pramukh Swami Maharaj can be found in the Inauguration DVD? If that is the case, then you can use it as a reference (use Template:Cite video). If possible, could you also include the time into the DVD when the quote was stated? Nishkid64 (talk) 18:28, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
You could probably use Template:Cite video for the CNN news bit. Nishkid64 (talk) 04:18, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Shady Records discography

Yeah no worries. The design looks heaps better than the current. Spellcast (talk) 06:28, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Product of the South

I originally created the article but User:KarmaLoop said on the talk page that it was a compilation album from Cashville Records and not a studio album. April '08 seems quite early for another Young Buck album eh? Spellcast (talk) 03:10, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Nah, I don't have Dutch connections. I told User:The Ed 1 (the same guy at the Dutch wiki), but I'm not sure if anything was done. Spellcast (talk) 21:09, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

You're right that there's no other GA/A/FA class record labels to base Shady Records on. But it's still pretty good—definitely better than most record label pages. The best advice I can give is to make it comprehensive and cite a lot of refs. I think well cited refs is the main part of a really good article. Spellcast (talk) 15:23, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Yea I meant having well cited refs. Well-structured refs seems to be the foundation of a good article. Spellcast (talk) 01:03, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
I know it wasn't meant negatively. I didn't say there was anything wrong with the refs - it's actually really well structured. Spellcast (talk) 02:29, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
Although record labels aren't my specialty, it looks pretty comprehensive. You can take it to peer review or go ahead and nominate it at WP:GAC. Spellcast (talk) 02:45, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

What up. Not back, yet. In a few weeks, I guess I might come back. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 03:11, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

I added you on Facebook, I think. Anyway, you should go on MSN more often. I think I'm gonna come back and edit for a while. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 02:48, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
I think I'll come back, edit some random hip-hop shit. Anyway, that's gonna be in like another 2 weeks. Until then, I can talk shit on Spellcast's talk page. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 16:10, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Yo man, I just looked at the Shady Records page, and I gotta say that I don't know what to do with it. I honestly don't see anything wrong with it, but I guess it's that "copy-editing" thing that Spellcast was talking about. The problem is, that I have no idea what copy-editing is, and what to do about it. I'm good at formatting, I'm good at providing references, I'm good at some crystal-ball issues, but I never dealt with copy-editing before. Sorry dude, ask Spellcast, I think he knows how to handle that thing. I think that if he just does whatever needs to be done, the article could be considered good enough for GA status. It has a lot of references and you did a good job on that history section. Anyway, sorry for not being able to help, I just don't know how. See ya. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 16:56, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
All right, I think I got it. I'll try to work on that within the next couple of days. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 21:08, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

OK, I did it. Sorry it took so long. Anyway, I tried my best, to be honest, though, I'm not sure how much my edits will help. I mean, you go to Uni, I'm in grade 11 in high school. I doubt I can do a better job than you. Anyway, I hope that helps. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 00:40, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, and Arsenal is my favorite team from England. I also kind of like Liverpool, lol. Ever since I was a kid I liked both teams, mainly cuz I hate Man. Utd. SO FUCKING MUCH. You're from England so I'm assuming you like it too. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 04:00, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
Whatever man, I'm not really into the rivalry things that much. I just love Arsenal and Liverpool and hate Man. Utd. and Chelsea. I especially hate Cristiano Ronaldo, he's a douche. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 21:38, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

I dunno, I've loved Arsenal ever since I've started playing football, which was actually when I was 12. That's pretty late, but better late than never. I hate Man. Utd. because everyone is basically on their dick. I never liked them, I never understood what the fuss is all about so basically I was just annoyed at first but that quickly turned into hate once I really got into football. I only really started to hate Chelsea after Abramovich bought them, all of a sudden these kids who never even heard of Chelsea before were on their dick. How did you get into Arsenal? --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 01:52, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

That's good, you gotta support your home teams too, not just the "Big" successful ones. My home-town team plays in the Romanian top league. I actually played for their "under-14" or whatever team for a while, then I moved to Canada. Now, not so much football. Sometimes I play on teams, or with my friends. Lately, the only football action I've been getting is playing FIFA 08, lol. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 02:49, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
I guess I was all right. I play defense. Any defense position, but I prefer playing on the left side. I'm left footed and left handed so it's easier for me. I can play center and on the right side too, though. I can play as a striker as well. I used to be able to play goalie, lol. I used to play with my doggs, but they went easy on me cuz I'm short. Now I don't play goalie that much, lol. When you play for an actual team they really go hard on you. The only position I never played/liked playing was midfield. I hate that, you actually gotta run. Fuck that, I play defense because it's so much easier to stop someone from attacking than actually attack and run and everything. Other sports? Uhh, I used to swim and shit, but now I don't really swim either. Like, I used to take lessons, but not for beginners, for like advanced shit. I kind of hated it, lol, too much chlorine. I been keeping it FIFA since FIFA 98 lol. I have every FIFA game since FIFA 04 for my PS2. How come Arsenal can beat Milan, yet they can't fucking win against Wigan? --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 18:18, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
I dunno, I think Arsenal sort of lack that one experienced player who can lead the team. Chelsea has Lampard and Terry, Liverpool has Gerrard, Man. Utd. has Ryan Giggs and Gary Neville, Arsenal only has Gilberto, but he doesn't play much. I think Fabregas will definitely be one of those experienced players that know how to lead a team, but he's too young right now. I mean, they have a great team, great goalie, great defense, great midfielders, great strikers, great coach, they got everything they need. They had Henry, but he left. He the leader for Arsenal, the captain, everything. And so was Vieira, but, they both left, and now they need someone to fill that position. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 18:57, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

They had a 5 point lead at the top of the table like 4 weeks ago, now they fell all the way down to third. I don't get what's going on, but it looks as if Man. Utd. will win again this year. What do you think? --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 03:46, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

I don't know. Arsenal has two difficult games at home, with Everton and Liverpool, and they have to play at Old Trafford. They also have away games at Bolton, Derby, and Sunderland, and another home game against Reading. They haven't won in the league since Eduardo's injury I think, so Wenger will have to do something about that, obviously they're having all these negative thoughts right now. The only thing Arsenal have to do is win all those 7 games. I don't think they can win it if they don't do that. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho?

I am sorry to cause this inconvenience, but I am not in the habit of checking the talk page of every article I edit, and it has not caused problems thus far.

At 9 paragraphs, it's a short article. I know I've said this before, but all it needs is a copyedit. Basically, you just have to remove redundant words to smoothen the prose. This is a good guide on how to do that. Now my schedule is kind of erratic, but I'll see what I can do this week. Spellcast (talk) 19:26, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] RE: JSN

Jai Swaminarayan Harish,

Yes I am aware of what you are indicating towards - When I edit articles on Wikipedia, I try to make them NPOV so that nobody can question them. As I mentioned on on Juthani1's talk page, altough I am a member of the Swaminarayan Sampraday, I hold BAPS in the highest regard. Infact, on the invitation of Yogi Swami, members of my family attended satsang sabha's addressed by him and have also met Pramukh Swamiji. By the way, would love to meet up with you on my next visit to London (though I dont know when that will be), I'm presently based in Glasgow - am a postgrad student of the University of Strathclyde - what about you? What do you do? Wheredevelsdare (talk) 22:51, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Well in Glasgow there is only one Hindu Mandir near Charring Cross (that is not a Swaminarayan Mandir) - aleast to the best of my knowledge - did you mean this mandir or another one? It is really difficult for me out here - sp. was when I came last September. For example, in India I used to do a lot of things such as Ekadashi and visited the temple on ekadashi days. However, for the first couple of months out here I was totally lost - I did not do ekadashi (although I did do daily pooja, I have brought with me a chhabi that was in the temple at home - but no diya or agarbatti here - or the crappy alarm goes off!!). Around november last year I think, I thought that it was enough of time - I had been here for long enough and started doing ekadashi again (though I go to the temple here only whenever possible, as its a half an hour walk from my student accomodation thats near university in the centre of town - and the public transport here is unreliable). I survive on potato chips n fies, milk products, sing and some fruits n these days etc. (no sabudana or rajagra na rotla etc. that I was used to having). Today is Mahashivratri n m survived so far on this stuff! (BTW happy Mahashivratri) Infact, you might not believe it but Roti's and Paratha's used to be couriered from Bombay till December - as the ready ones r not that good and the ones I made then were worse - I have hopefully passed that stage now. The weather is another dampener here - u prob. know the diff. bttn. Glasgow and Bombay. But the uni is great. Im actually in the Business School doing my Masters in Business and Management. I just finished my first degree last June (B.Com from H. R. College, University of Mumbai), and wanted to do my MBA. In India I'd have to waste a year giving entrance tests and at the end of it get a diploma (Yes, even the highly rated IIM's give diplomas not degrees). Out here they ask for 3 yrs work ex and in the US u need 16 years of education (I'd done 15). However, at Strath I got the option to do this 1 yr course, get 3 yrs work ex and have get my MBM degree converted to an MBA degree, so I grabbed the opportunity. Overall, my exp. here so far has been very good - have some extended family in London so visit sometimes - thats why when I realised ur from London, on the spur of the moment I thought I could meet you there - just generally. The only reason I said this was that its better to see a face rather than talk to a digital personality. I know during term time travelling weekends is tough - I came down for Diwali (fri sat sun) and it was very tiring - have not done a weekend trip again! I prob. will be down some time in April during my easter break - have not planned up anything so far though. What do you study - and if I may ask how do you mantain satsang at uni (I take it that your uni is away from home)? Is your family settled in the UK or are you also from India? Love the way u ended both your msgs - , bhai!! Wheredevelsdare (talk) 18:28, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
JSN, no probs bhai - v all go thru the same thing so I can well understand. Well the mandir I know of is 15 mins walking from Cineworld (+10 mins frm my house to cineworld). Well I normally make food at home (wch is better than the ''Indian'' Restaurants). Knew a little bit of cooking - enough to manage (roti's was the major issue - yea roti's frm home r like a blessing!!) - and also got lots of stuff with me - 1 bag of food n 1 bag for everything else when I came. I got packets of ready gravy - juz hv to add fresh veg - but can make fresh gravy too - use the packets as a change. Made Basundi for da 1st time on Mahashivratri - turned out fine .. will try Srikhand for holi!! And ofcourse there is Pizza or Subway and other stuff too (non - Indian). If uv been to Bombay - I dont need to say anything more - the public transport too seems better there!!. Yup, I guess it was the best decision I could make. Well I have extended family in Ruislip as well as in Central London (Hv stayed @ Ruislip during my visits). You seem to hv a busy diary. I'v done flights n buses .. not done train yet .. though wanna try tht too .. Was juz scanning ur edits too - u seem to b a general wiki editor - not juz concentrating on something - wch is gr8 - ur edits seem v. pro too. Can u pl. expand tht a little - Im not tht stern a satsangi either (for eg. I dont do the Tilak Chandlo - ur 1 up on me there - Sheild?!?). So u I guess u too must hv ur ancestorial roots in Kutch - I know tht there were a lot of Kutchi satsangi's who went to Africa long bak and in the 70's and 80's moved ovr to UK and US. I thnk a lot of satsangis of the London temples in Harrow, Oldham etc. came frm Africa too. Wheredevelsdare (talk) 17:12, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, Dont hv time enough to reply ur entire msg rite now - hope to do tht later tday, but I thgt this matter needed ur attn. Regards, Wheredevelsdare (talk) 07:59, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
Sorry for troubling you yest - but I thgt it might be good if you too put a word in for our young friend. I dint hv time enough last night to reply you - appologies again. Yea, reliability is a big concern, specially in a foreign land. Wanted you to expand on how you maintain satsang - if m not getting to personal. Its always great when ppl show you things - and you feel you have done something to help other ppl (I sometimes consider spending time on wiki more as spending time for charity - not in exactly tht sense but something similar). You sound quite stern a satsangi (contarary to wht u sd) .. I do avoid bars (alcohol) and meat totally .. but do go clubbing sometimes ( not tht m a party animal .. but sometimes). I take the next sentence as not be involved in. Yea, I cant imagine walking into somewhere like a club with a chandlo .. tht wld be a disgrace. And apologies - dint realise. Wheredevelsdare (talk) 22:23, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

JSN, thanks for ur delayed reply - thgt u were off on a wikbreak! Anyways, wld hv loved to continue our conversation, however Iv got exams cumin up and its about time I put full concentration on that, so I will reply u in detail in a few days once they are over. Incase you do need to contact me during this time, please feel free to email me .. Regards, Wheredevelsdare (talk) 12:27, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
JSN, sorry for the delay, its exam time so bit busy - got some time to breath now!! Anyways, thanks for expanding on satsang. Yes, its always good to be surrounded by haribaktos, but remember, this may not always be the case and there may be times where you will be alone and tested. It is then that strong satsangis stand out and Im sure you will too. I thgt BAPS followers only followed part of the Shikshaparti, not the whole thing - do you then read the whole thing or just a part of it. My, you make me feel as if i visit a red light area rather than have a night out with friends once in a while! Yup, your wearing the chandlo gives you a lot of inspiration, and thats very good. Although you may not feel the need for a userpage (something which I respect), people like me would love to see you have one, - btw any chance of being in London around Ram Navmi?

[edit] Paramahansa

There is a need to merge this article with Paramahamsa which means exactly the same thing if you look at the articles. I tried doing it but I failed at doing so. I added a section on swaminarayan paramhansas so don't revert all of my work. I originally started creating an article called paramhansa but I realized that there were already two articles like it. So paramhansa, paramahansa, and paramahamsa are three ways of spelling it. I want the articles to be merged into one so that when you type any of the three names in the search box you end up on one page. I need you guys,Wheredevelsdare and Harish, to accomplish this task. I'm still new to wiki and am not able to do it. So please fix this error.--Juthani1 (talk) 23:27, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

I have made the merge. Paramhansas information is now on the more commonly used term Paramhamsa. Please help me add finishing touches to it. Also I need to completely delete the paramhansas page but I don't know how to. Please help me.--Juthani1 (talk) 03:19, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Are you interested?

Harish Namaskar! You were recently contributing to articles that are now in the scope of the new project WP:KRISHNA such as ones that relate to Swaminarayan Faith, I thought you may want to check the proposal of merger and cast your vote in relation of the additional section to article Krishna. Thanks. --Wikidās-ॐ 14:41, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Scope, update and voting
Whats new at Krishna's project
Wikipedia:WikiProject Krishnaism - whats new and happening!
Please note the results of the vote on the proposal of merging new article on early worship of Krishna Vasudeva to the main article dedicated to the Hindu deity Krishna.
  • Krishna Vasudeva may have been worshiped in 4 century BC as a monotheistic deity.
  • This article is to be incorporated in a separate section of Krishna article.
  • Also, if you are ready to help with editing and assessment of the scope, please see the project page, and add your name to the list of participants.
More on the topic.
How will it be defined.

While the name of the project is WikiProject Krishnaism in common language many seems to prefer a wider term "Vaishnavism", which however appeared to relate to Vishnu. Krishnaism is more of an academic term. On the other hand even one of the first Indologists to use the term, Albrecht Weber was to consider that that the essence of Krishnaism, bhakti or the principle of "God is love", was pre-Christian. There were and are many traditions where Krishna is worshiped and His names revered.

There was a discussion (and a heated one) on the scope of the project and the term here. Currently the scope is quite wide and aims at improving articles related to Radha-Krishna and associated traditions where they are worshiped: Manipuri Vaishnavas, Bhagavata, Gaudiya Vaishnava, Nimbarka sampradaya, Swaminarayana sampradaya, Vallabha sampradaya; If you see a need to widen or restrict the scope please voice your opinion - it is wanted!

Just leave a few words here.

[edit] DYK

JSN,

There is a reason to celebrate. Today the Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, Karachi became the first Swaminarayan article to feature on the main page of wiki in the DYK section. Around The GlobeContact 17:15, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] London Mandir

Sorry about switching the pics, the other one just looked better.    Juthani1   tcs 20:36, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Clean up

This article needs major help- Rama Navami Can you help?    Juthani1   tcs 18:20, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Pics

There are a few pics on flickr as well. Also, you can take pics of the Neasden mandirif you get permissioon to do so. I get really complicated when uploading pics from a site even with a sadhus permission, becase the website clearly states- "Copyright BAPS..." I don't know what to tell you. Can you by any chance get a pic of Dham Dhami Mukth athe the Neasden Mandir uploaded on wiki?    Juthani1   tcs 15:58, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

You done an excellent job with the Akshardham article. I fixing up some stuff, but it is really good. It think it may even get featured if we work hard to clear up grammaticla issues and other small issues. I was wondering why the other picture of Akshardham is not at the top. Its a lot more clear and would look better. I know that the other one shows the entire complex, but that could go next to the section where you describe the complex.    Juthani1   tcs 16:03, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Oh so they still are editing. Do they have accounts or is it just IP adresses? That's pretty cool how you got them to do that. Tell them I said Jai Swaminarayan. I in the middle of making the page for the Swaminarayan wikiproject in my sandbox. Feel free to help out    Juthani1   tcs 19:20, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! I will be uploading 5 images of Akshardham and putting them with the article in you sandbox if that's ok    Juthani1   tcs 23:24, 3 June 2008 (UTC)


I am trying to do that. ATG and I are the ones who have made the templates. I made Template:Swaminarayan as a universal template and Template:BAPS. There are only three templates. ATG made Template:Swaminarayan Sampraday. What we were going to do was add the Swaminarayan Template (the universal one) on all Swaminarayan related articles and add the BAPS or Swaminarayan Sampraday template depending on if the article is related to that. The Bhagwan Swaminarayan article has only the universal template to avoid conflict as does the Swaminarayan Faith article.    Juthani1   tcs 23:45, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Swaminarayan

JSN,

I no this question may sound wierd, but when Juthani1 told me this, it felt queer to me so I decided to ask you to confirm. In BAPS are satsangis also known as Swaminarayan - I no v are called Swaminarayani - but never heard of Swaminarayan! I trust Jutani1, but this is a little diff to believe as how can v b known by a Bhagwans name - ppl. cant refer to both us as well as bhagwan as Swaminarayan - Can u pl. confirm this. Thanks, Around The GlobeContact 22:35, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

and btw, say Jai Swaminarayan to the santos from my side as well .. :) & I almost dint notice the change of name! Good work .. Around The GlobeContact 22:36, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

JSN,

K, tht fine then - juz wanted a confirmation. Dont bother to say anything except my Jai Swaminarayan. NP, anytime, I juz noticed so mentioned it. Around The GlobeContact 09:33, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Akshardham

I added the two pics I promised. I changed the pic at the top since it was taken on a foggy day. I replaced it with another view of the entire complex though it is as far away. Take the opinion of others before reverting me. I also added a pic of the main dome.    Juthani1   tcs 19:51, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

I was also wondering if we could switch the order if history and temple features. Besides this, the article is excellent    Juthani1   tcs 21:00, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Swaminarayan Images

I have added [[Category:Swaminarayan Images]] to 81 images related to the Swaminarayan Faith. By doing this we now have a category for all Swaminarayan Pictures. If I missed an, please add [[Category:Swaminarayan Images]] to the image    Juthani1   tcs 23:37, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for replying. Play around with pics. The pics were not taken by me, but are useful. Yo said that the santos gave permission. The BAPS logo is "self" made any way. Thanks again    Juthani1   tcs 00:36, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Found it through pic properties    Juthani1   tcs 20:40, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Comment U guys hv taken a great step: contacting santos for help. They are an ocean of information - the best source you can get. Just a word of caution though - be sure to remove all the POV from the info u get - v hv had BIG problems with POV on Swaminarayan articles lately. Around The GlobeContact 23:59, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
Im not disputing ur neutrality in any way - I no ur credientials are gr8 - hv a look at the main Swaminarayan article, some mandir and acharya articles - lot of stuff has just been taken of as POV, in some cases major portions of articles hv been removed. BTW, wch gym is open rite now - or do u hv one @ home? gn Around The GlobeContact 00:09, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

I agree tht our articls r not in the best of shape. Things are however improving. We hve managed to improve the Swaminarayan Bhagwan article to B-Class status - a major achievement. I am trying to rm POV from all the articles and add as many refs as possible. Other editors like Juthani1 are also have a big hand in this - we dont need to wait for a project to form - it is upto us to clean up because others will not clean up - they will just delete. To give an eg. Swaminarayan temples was up for deletion in March. Some Hinduism editors helped me save it from deletion, and with Bhagwans help today I think Iv been able to make it a respectable page. And how can I forget, May saw the first Swaminarayan DYK feature on the main page of wikipedia - so things are changing for the better. Around The GlobeContact 02:07, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Wch one? Around The GlobeContact 12:22, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Sorry - I mentioned three articles in my last msg - wch one - Sahajanand Swami, Swaminarayan temples and Swaminarayan Mandir, Karachi - thanks for the compliment anyways! Id like u to help out with the neutral ones (neutral to Sampraday and BAPS) .. like Sahajanand Swami. Ur most welcome to help with Sampraday ones too if u so wish. Also bout the refs for the Lotus feet thing - tk a look at this google book search [3]. Around The GlobeContact 12:40, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Could you get Maharaj's name in Gujarati    Juthani1   tcs 01:04, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] RE: Various

JSN,

Thanks - thts a boost! Yes, Im aware of tht but I thgt this particular way is unique to us (calling it thaal and singing the song). I no tht in other mandirs too they offer food, but I dont think they call it thaal, I think in most places its Bhog - further I dont think any song is sung .. Abt the lyrics - I had had a chat with Juthani1 - the ones Iv put are the original ones by Bhumanand Swami. If u go to put versions of diff sects u will end up with god knows how many lyrics! I dont know gujarati - I read by deciphering words - and tht turns out to be wrong many a time - I no Hindi and a few letters of gujarati - but tht does not serve our purpose. BTW Juthani1 is the gujju chap - hes learnt it - I req him to do it and hes passed the buck to u! See the 3rd userbox on his userpage .. and I almost forgot - the Bhagwan page. Wht hv u been doin all this while? If u go bak to all the mucky days, u would notice that the final settlement was done by Haribhagat, Bhudiya2, Moksha88 and WildT. Iv been in touch with the first 2, the second has gone into oblivion and the fourth hasnt bothered to reply my msg. I was after Haribhagat for sources as he was one of the main scriptwriters of this page (Bhudiya2 dint no much - he worked more on the Sampraday page) - I asked Haribhagat for sources and he told me to use the Williams book - he says thts the main neutral resource v should use. A lot of stuff was removed as POV as u prob no, you can say the soul of the article was missing. I therefore added some information on Bhagwans mandirs and Paramhansas recently to take it past start class .. Around The GlobeContact 12:41, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] RE: THAAL

JSN,

Sorry - Ill try to rem to mk a new section. Your right - v need a better intro para for the thaal. Iv seen lyrics in other places - see [4]. Dont worry even if u are criticising me its for the better of our articles. Well my time here is limited - Id like not to waste time waiting for the project to start - I dunno when thts gonna happen. I want to build the base of Swaminarayan articles ASAP. Is suugest u go ahead with the changes u wish to make. NP bout tht - Juthani1 has managed to get the gujarati wordings - Iv put him in a tizzy by asking for a devnagari and audio version too .. haha .. Around The GlobeContact 14:55, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

JSN,

Re. Devnagari - Iv added tht in all major Swaminarayan articles. I no the sp. are wrong in many pl. - but cant help tht - cld nt find how to get half the stuff on the keyboard .. Around The GlobeContact 09:50, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Akshardham

Sorry about not making new secions everytime. Some people get annoyed by this, btu I will do this on your talkpage from now on. I was wondering if we should add this quote to the article.

" Delhi is the throne. The flag should fly high in Delhi. A pinnacled monument will rise. The land which has been performing penance shall be acquired. Now Yamunaji is waiting. She has become restless. With certain surety, land on the banks of Yamunaji will be acquired. The Lord will fulfil this in His divine way."
