[edit] Spam links

I just spotted that particular batch of spam links by chance, someone had added a rather unnecessary link to a watched page of mine, so I just checked the user for more contributions and saw that adding links to one website was all he had done.

The easiest way to find spam would probably be to monitor Special:Recentchanges for changes made by IP addresses, they tend to do shady stuff sometimes :) If you see one doing bad stuff, just check its history, and you might just find something sneaky, it happens every once in a while.

[edit] Amazon spam links - you can help

I see you commented on User talk:Cmdrjameson about the amzon spam links. Amazon isn't the only site with a referral program, if you know of any other sites that provide relevant information but contain referral IDs, don't hesitate to tell! Obli (Talk) 23:10, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

Unless I'm mistaken, User:Cmdrjameson has already cleared the Amazon and Allmusic links by looking through a database dump locally, on his computer. There are still other pages that use reference IDs, though.

As for the harm caused by them; the effects aren't really *that* noticeable. First of all, someone might be making money from people clicking those links, we won't have that (for obvious reasons). Secondly, if we don't remove them people will think it's OK to stuff WP with spammy ref ID links. Obli (Talk) 17:23, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Powershot A95

I own a Powershot A95 myself, and I'm curious how to take a picture like Hibiscus Petal. Disavian 19:53, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AIV vs VIP

Hi Nvineeth. I noticed you added an entry to Vandalism in Progress. That page is only for very specific cases, as described by the page's guidelines. Your alert would be better placed on Administrator intervention against vandalism (WP:AIV), where it will usually be processed within minutes. Many alerts that are incorrectly placed on Vandalism in Progress are never dealt with, simply because they become old before an administrator gets to them. Thanks for your efforts. :) --lightdarkness (talk) 06:33, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Didnt know, thanks for the info --vineeth 06:51, 20 February 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Thanks!

Thanks for your kind words! Nach0king 09:19, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Yay! thanks for the redirection info, it was very helpful :-D --TheAlphaWolf 00:39, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Added the first nomination for India FP. >> vineeth 16:58, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Hello: I'm as much in the dark as you. And there's nothing to archive. Portal india is undergoing development. Pls see my reason for objecting at FP candidate. You might want to offer to help at the portal talk page. (At your convenience). It's only recently that india portal will have an FP each week. User:Urshyam's page says he selects the pics. Regards, Pournami

shouldnt have nominated a fairuse image, my fault --vineeth 13:24, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Greetings

Holi greetings. --Bhadani 13:57, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

Hello. Would you mind coming down to Talk:Calvin_and_Hobbes to engage in the debate of whether to keep fan sites in the article? I have posted what I hope to be a good compromise, but opinion at the moment seems divided. Please come and share your opinions. :) Mjg0503 20:26, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Sure will do, :) currently very busy, need some time --vineeth 17:51, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cayce's beliefs

Just curious.. Your recent addition to the Cayce page was good. If a woman was one of three sisters to a warrior in Persia in the 1920s; that Persian warrior MUST have three sisters in the 1940s, not two sisters as you have stated... I'd recommend a fixup before the skeptics just on you for inconsistency... Just trying to help the article be top notch.

Its cool, dont worry; anyone trying to improve the Cayce article makes my heart sing! Just wanted to inspire you to do what you were thinking with the article, just get some facts straighter, so we can get Cayce looking far more professional thatn some pseudoscientific illusionist obsessed with Millenium prophecies (which he most certainly want, but many writers of books on Cayce seem very good at promoting). In my mind, Cayce was a medical clairvoyant, whose many diagnoses for thousands of people, has improved amny peoples lives immensely - physically, intellectually, emotionally, and spiritually. Best of luck. Keep editing. Be Bold - as the wikipedia originators seem to want us to be! Drakonicon 13:47, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Userpage

I think that your old version was better :-) - Mike 22:12, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Haha, I have reverted it back, :) --vineeth 16:49, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:On leave

Haha. I know the feeling. I'm not totall on leave as I said I was....but I'm trying to cool it down a bit. I'm sure I will and then when I do I can tae that notice down :-). I have already added a notice above that saying that I am still checking my talk page. Nice job on the userpage too! - Mike 19:27, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Just removed the notice as for he last few days I have been able to contain myself. Hopefully I can contribute more productively now! - Mike 19:36, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vivekananda at wikisource

Great job in bringing complete works and biography to wikisource! I've been planning to do this for a long time. You beat me to it :-) ~ srini 14:55, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

That's fantastic. I'm aware of this annoying javascript problem with ramakrishnavivekananda.info, in addition, some pages there just won't show up. If you need any help, just give me a buzz, I'm willing to help in whatever way I can. Also, you may want to see this and make sure such things doesn't happen with Vivekananda's biography. ~ srini 09:01, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Sure, I will continue adding the sanskrit text, but please proofread and check for mistakes everytime I add them : ). I removed the 'br' tags because I thought they are not required in those places in that particular page, but I'll make sure I don't remove the tags from poems. -srini 05:08, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re:TODO page

Yes, I had a feeling that it was you, but when an anon IP blanks a userpage it's a good idea to make sure anyway ;-). - Mike | Talk 01:02, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] I'm back.

I'll just try to cut down ;-). - Mike1 03:36, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
