[edit] Excessive linkingThank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. In your recent edit to Taj Mahal, you added links to an article which did not add content or meaning, or repeated the same link several times throughout the article. Please see Wikipedia's guideline on links to avoid overlinking. Thank you. Greswik 19:05, 17 April 2007 (UTC) [edit] Excessive linking and referencingDear Universe=atom, Your enthusiasm is appreciated, but your linking (in Taj Mahal) and referencing (on the India page) are both excessive. Please read WP:MOS for a guide to editing. Thanks! Fowler&fowler«Talk» 17:18, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Blanking Your Own Talk PageDear Universe=atom, It is generally considered bad form to blank (or delete content from) your own talk page, unless there is offensive language in a post. The usual custom on WP is to archive post, when a large number has accumulated, not to delete them as you did here. Thanks. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 11:21, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] WikilinksYour wikilinks in Taj Mahal were not in keeping with the Wiki standards. Please see the manual of style for guidelines. WP:MOS. Thank you.--Nemonoman 14:03, 21 April 2007 (UTC) A more specific guideline may be found here: WP:CONTEXT--Nemonoman 14:20, 21 April 2007 (UTC) [edit] HiHi! I see you have been editing India-related articles quite a lot, and also have participated in WP:INCOTW nomination procedure. History of India will probably be next week's INCOTW. We hope to improve the article substantially. At present, the article is dingy and lacks inline citations. Please continue your edits, but please also read the wikipedia guidelines (as mentioned in previous posts in your talk pages). Meanwhile, you can try editing Education in India which is this week's INCOTW. Here are some links you may be interested in:

Also your previous blanking of your user page and recent archiving of the Talk:India page (upto and including F&F's query), do not raise confidence. So, I request you to clarify once and for all, if or if not you are Nikkul and/or Johnsmithcba. I apologize for this seeming assumption of bad faith, but the India page has recently had a bad experience with sock-puppets and no one wants to go through that again. Thanks.

As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact the just released 1.3 version has even more power. Because of this we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that at this time you do not meet the minimum requirement of 250 edits to mainspace articles (see under main here). Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again soon. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof.

[edit] Re:PrejudiceSorry, I got busy with other stuff and forgot to answer your post on my talk page. I don't have any prejudice against you. I only react to what people say or do on a page, not who they are (which in any case I don't know anything about). When you made the change on the India page which provided a link to all the names of India in different languages, I thought it was a good edit and I was quick to praise you. So, please don't think that I bear any ill-will against you (as a person). I don't. Regards, Fowler&fowler«Talk» 21:48, 21 May 2007 (UTC) [edit] Signpost updated for May 21st, 2007.

Ralbot 05:48, 22 May 2007 (UTC) [edit] Dont worryI dont see where they accuse you of being a sock of KH. I dont think they're accusing you of being a sock of anybody else other than John. If you're innocent, dont worry about anything. I've been through baseless accusations myself. Several checkusers have been filed against me and several users have trolled on wikipedia including an admin have taken undue advantage of it in bad faith. You will just have to be thick-skinned about it and continue to edit in good faith and contribute to the project. Also dont be scared of anyone. Policies and guidelines govern all of us. So if somebody's being rude to you or if they're throwing around baseless accusations and calling you names etc., do not mince any words in pointing out to them that they are in violation of wiki policies. If they persist, report them to an admin or on WP:ANI, but avoid stooping to their levels and responding in kind. Ping me if you need any help. Sarvagnya 18:37, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
On a serious note, nobody can bully you by calling you a sock without proof. If they do report them to a neutral admin. Suspicious ppl suspect everything.....that doesn't imply you need to worry about them. Let them do their work(ie. suspect) and you do your work(ie. edit). Don't let these issues stop you.But after this comment I am afraid they not further suspect 'I am Nikkul's sock' or 'he is my sock' or 'we are both socks of u' or 'you are a sock of both of us both' or 'you are a sock of me and i m a sock of Nikkul' 'or maybe I am a sock you and you are a sock of Nikkul' or 'we all our socks of someone else'. I'll talk to Fowler&Fowler abt this whole wrangle.KnowledgeHegemony 10:37, 1 June 2007 (UTC) [edit] Infobox of China articleThe China article is a civilizational article focusing mostly on Chinese historical and cultural themes leading up to the modern nation-states.

Can you please clarify which wikipedia style guide you are following, since WP:DATE contains no such injunction, or even specify a preference, and gives examples for both uses ? Furthermore, you'll note that Eighteenth century is in fact a redirect to 18th century! Note too that not using a serial comma is not a grammatical error and the wikipedia MoS allows its use/non-use as long as ambiguity is avoided. That aside, in this edit you changed the punctuation within quoted text, which is a no-no unless there is a strong justification for doing so (and even in that case the reader needs to be told that the quoted text has been tampered). Finally note that according to WP:NUM#Numbers_in_words, "Whole numbers from zero to ten should be spelled out", while, "Numbers above ten may be written out if they are expressed in two or fewer words" (emphasis added). I point this out simply because your edit summary here was incorrect, even though the edit itself was fine. Hope you'll treat the above comments as friendly pointers rather than admonishments. I just thought it would be better to explain my reasoning for undoing some of your edits in detail here, rather than in a 4-5 word edit summary. Cheers. Abecedare 19:10, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Taj FPC and Wonders of the WorldHi, I noticed that someone had queried, "What wonders might that be?" in reference to the Taj Mahal (in the WP:FPC section). Although it is commonly said that the Taj (or the Great Wall of China) is one of the Seven Wonders, the more common Seven Wonders are the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World (i.e. the seven wonders of classical antiquity), a list that did not include the Taj. You might want to change your post to one of the lists on the "Seven Wonders" page above to which the Taj does belong (Medieval, or Tourist). No big deal though.

Ralbot 08:16, 5 June 2007 (UTC) [edit] Your help desk messageHello, I am a recent edits' patroller. While patrolling, I obviously come upon vandals, the edits of whom I of course revert. I was wondering, though, if I am allowed to give a warning to a vandal (such as the ones in Wp:vandal#Warnings) even though I am not an administrator. I was wondering this because on the warnings, it states that "...if you continue, you will be blocked..." Obviously, since I am not an admin, I do not have the ability to block users, but on the warnings, it looks that I can do so. So, am I allowed to give out these warnings? Also, please reply on my talk page instead of here. Thank you. Universe=atom•Talk•Contributions• 16:44, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

According to the law of conservation of matter, atoms are only preserved for basic chemical reactions. Once you get into nuclear reactions ( which i thought you guys would be familiar with ;), see India_and_weapons_of_mass_destruction ), this does not apply and atoms are split all the time.

Ideally, any links worth having should be incorporated into the text, and many well-written articles have no See also section for that reason; your advice to add a See also section is confusing and often incorrect.

Hi, since you've been working hard in improving the article, I have a little request. I have been working really hard on this same article on Simple wiki, and a few bits of information in this article are unsourced, particularly the section about the Rings and I'm having trouble finding sources for that. Maybe if you could be able to find references here and maybe at simple wiki too, that will be great. Thank you. RaNdOm26 14:53, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
