Welcome!

Hello, Sawantve, Welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at Naming Conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal — and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my New-Users' Talk Page.
Additional tips:
Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:
  • If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
  • Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
  • You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
  • If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language
Happy editing!

[edit] Thakur Anukulchandra

Please look at other Wikipedia articles, and at the help pages, to see how articles should be written and presented. For example, you've just removed my attempts to begin to put this article into Wikipedia style, as well as adding lots of section headings in capitals. I've reverted back to the version that I'd last saved; when you add your new material, please do so in the correct style. If you need help with that, feel free to contact me. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 13:04, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

The thing to do is to create a page in your own user space (e.g., User:Sawantve/Sri Sri Anukulchandra Thakur), get the article into Wikipedia order there, and then move it to the article space. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 08:54, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
I've just discovered that you have again reverted my attempt to start putting this article into Wikipedia style. Please stop doing that. We don't want headings in all-capitals, and there's a standard Wikipedia style for presenting basic information in biographies. Why do you insist on going against that? Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 09:17, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)

And I find that you've again messed up the Wikified summary. I also note that you've cut and pasted part of this article from here. It's essential that the relevant parts of the article be rewritten as soon as possible; Wikipedia doesn't allow copyright material to be used in articles without explicit and verifiable consent from the copyright holder.

I've also moved the article to the correct title, and removed some duplicate material & links. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 11:19, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Could you use edit summaries? It's Wikipedia policy, and makes it much easier for other editors to see what's going on. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 11:14, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Ssthakur.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Ssthakur.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Carnildo or ask for help at Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. Thank you.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Magna Dicta, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material.

Magna Dicta has been tagged for deletion, and may have been deleted by the time you see this message. If the source is a credible one, please consider rewriting the content and citing the source.

[edit] Messages of Thakur Anukulchandra

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Messages of Thakur Anukulchandra, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at Talk:Messages of Thakur Anukulchandra. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. NickelShoe (Talk) 15:53, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Messages of Thakur Anukulchandra, while interesting, is not an encyclopedia article. It's source text. As such, it should go to Wikisource and be linked from Thakur Anukulchandra. Since wikisource only accepts text in the public domain or with a GFDL copyright licence, I need to know whether the text and its translation are released as such.

[edit] Satchhidanandaghana vigraha

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Satchhidanandaghana vigraha, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. MasterXC 00:30, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
