From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for asking for help. Please feel free to ask anytime. :)

As for the Kuruksastra article, the main problem is that it cites no sources for its content, which is what the {{unreferenced}} template indicates. It is placed there not as a personal attack, but both so that readers are aware of the lack of source citations and so that others who may know of sources or have found them know the article needs them. Please note that we should not write articles solely from our knowledge of the subject but should cite reliable secondary sources such as newspaper articles, Web reviews not authored or influenced by those connected with the subject, and the like. You may find the guidelines in WP:RS and WP:V helpful. If you need any help in finding sources, evaluating whether they're reliable, or properly putting the code to cite them in the article, please don't hesitate to ask.

[edit] Daksh

Well one of the main problems with it is its highly speculative nature; it seems that this is a planned event and as such has nothing verifiable written about it. It is not only that it is unsourced - a problem with many articles - but it seems 'unsourceable'. If nothing else, then, I would advise you to repost the article as and when it it becomes sourceable.

The reason I used the short-hand 'advert' was simply because that without soruces and without any context - what is a technical festival, why is this one notable etc - then it becomes an advert for the event.

My advise for you would be that this article could be reposted if:

  • More context was given about what a technical festival is and why this one is notable
  • A website has been developed for it, so that the information is verifiable
  • It includes reference to the writings of someone about the festival - to show that this is not just being included for self promotion

As for other pages on technical festivals - well I'd have to see them first to comment on their individual circumstances. Could you provide some links for me? As a general rule, though, I'd point out that admins just delete stuff that other users have tagged as inappropriate - so if something is on Wikipedia, that doesn't necessairily mean it would survive a vote for deletion. --Robdurbar 12:43, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Well thanks for that. I must admit I still believe those articles to be very 'borderline' as to whether they should be included on Wikipedia. That aside for the moment, then, I think an improved and sourced version of Daksh explaining what a technical festival is would probably be just about OK (though I'm not promising anything!).
By the way, you might consider creating a page at Technical festival? If these are an importnat part of Unviersity life in India, they probably deserve and article! Robdurbar 12:27, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Userboxes

I took it away for two reasons.

  1. You put an example image, which shouldn't be there.
  2. You were on the wrong page, here is the link. [[1]]

If I am correct, you wanted a userbox to be found or made for you. The link above has users who would be glad to make one for you. Ok? Thanks!-BlueAmethyst .:*:. (talk) 23:29, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

By the way, I did not undo your edit again, so you can copy and paste your userbox idea again on the other page.-BlueAmethyst .:*:. (talk) 23:33, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
