[edit] Proposed change to party leadership categories

There's a discussion about Category:Bharatiya Janata Party leaders and Category:Indian National Congress leaders that started 16th October at [1] --Mereda 14:14, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Project directory

Hello. The WikiProject Council has recently updated the Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Directory. This new directory includes a variety of categories and subcategories which will, with luck, potentially draw new members to the projects who are interested in those specific subjects. Please review the directory and make any changes to the entries for your project that you see fit. There is also a directory of portals, at User:B2T2/Portal, listing all the existing portals. Feel free to add any of them to the portals or comments section of your entries in the directory. The three columns regarding assessment, peer review, and collaboration are included in the directory for both the use of the projects themselves and for that of others. Having such departments will allow a project to more quickly and easily identify its most important articles and its articles in greatest need of improvement. If you have not already done so, please consider whether your project would benefit from having departments which deal in these matters. It is my hope that all the changes to the directory can be finished by the first of next month. Please feel free to make any changes you see fit to the entries for your project before then. If you should have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you. B2T2 15:17, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Congratulations

You have a wonderful, well-organized project. I'm the coordinator of the medicine project. Could I steal your Collaboration opportunities and the Collaboration Dashboard. Magic ideas. :) NCurse work 20:58, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Sure, I think there is no need to ask for it. All the texts are provided under GFDL license. Anyways the ultimate aim of the WikiProject is to improve the encyclopedia content. If it is good for that project it would be a little help to the medicine project from my side :) Shyam (T/C) 21:23, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia Day Awards

Hello, all. It was initially my hope to try to have this done as part of Esperanza's proposal for an appreciation week to end on Wikipedia Day, January 15. However, several people have once again proposed the entirety of Esperanza for deletion, so that might not work. It was the intention of the Appreciation Week proposal to set aside a given time when the various individuals who have made significant, valuable contributions to the encyclopedia would be recognized and honored. I believe that, with some effort, this could still be done. My proposal is to, with luck, try to organize the various WikiProjects and other entities of wikipedia to take part in a larger celebrartion of its contributors to take place in January, probably beginning January 15, 2007. I have created yet another new subpage for myself (a weakness of mine, I'm afraid) at User talk:Badbilltucker/Appreciation Week where I would greatly appreciate any indications from the members of this project as to whether and how they might be willing and/or able to assist in recognizing the contributions of our editors. Thank you for your attention. Badbilltucker 20:38, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Integral humanism

The talk page of Integral humanism mentions the (stub) article to be maintained by this project. It appears to me that it could well be a self-promoting article (promoting linked and seemingly dubious sites), hardly more than a hoax, that should be deleted. Else it needs some reliable sources that prove the title to be genuinely notable. Before putting it up for deletion, I suggest members of this Indian politics project to have a look and if it is worth keeping, make a few essential improvements. Kind regards. — SomeHuman 15 Jan 2007 08:46 (UTC)

Yes, I do agree with you. I will work out on those politician pages as time permits. So please do not nominate them for deletion. Shyam (T/C) 18:40, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
Its notable in Hindu circles and in conservative hindu parties like the BJP. Its not well-known but hardly a hoax. Deendayal Upadhyaya is quite an important figure in Hindu politics.Bakaman 02:09, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Expert review: MCA 21 Project

As part of the Notability wikiproject, I am trying to sort out whether MCA 21 Project is notable enough for an own article. I would appreciate an expert opinion. For details, see the article's talk page. If you can spare some time, please add your comments there. Thanks! --B. Wolterding 13:48, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Comments requested at RfC for Sonia Gandhi page

Hi, I would request memebers of the POI wikiproject to give their opinion over the content of the Sonia Gandhi page at this RfC. I hope this is an appropropriate place for making such a request. Many thanks. ReluctantPhilosopher (talk) 16:46, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] WP:INDIA Tagging with TinucherianBot

TinucherianBot can automatically tag articles with {{WP India}} Banner as {{WP India|class=|importance=}} to the talk page of articles without the project banner. It can also add the workgroup paramaters like "|kerala=yes|kerala-importance=" etc ,if needed. The currently supported workgroups are Kerala, Maharashtra, Andhra pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, Bengal, Goa, Himachal Pradesh , Karnataka , Punjab,cities, Cinema, Literature, Protected Areas of India, History, Politics, states, Geography,Maps,Districts and Tamil.

If you need so, you need to provide me with the Categories to run the Bot. Due to some technical issues, the Bot will not run recursively to sub-categories. The requester should kindly verify that there are NO non-related articles in the category.
You may request for the bot run on my talk page... Thanks -- TinuCherian (Wanna Talk?) - 06:39, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Watchlists

To help this workgroup patrol existing articles for vandalism/recent changes, Ganeshbot has created the Wikipedia:WikiProject Indian politics/Articles page. This page will be updated on a regular basis. Please do remind me if I forget. :) It contains articles that were tagged with the India banner and fall under the scope of this workgroup. Please let me know in case of any questions. Thanks, Ganeshk (talk) 11:35, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
