Welcome! Hello, Wasifwasif, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, like Maqbara, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted (if it hasn't already).

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Speedy deletion of Maqbara

A tag has been placed on Maqbara requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Problems with upload of File:Maqbara.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Maqbara.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or what the copyright status is. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

Image tagging for File:Maqbara.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Maqbara.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

February 2009

Please do not add copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to File:Kazimarbigmosque.JPG. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. CambridgeBayWeather Have a gorilla 09:03, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did to Muawiyah I, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Ogress _smash! 06:24, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at List of Islamic shrines in Tamil Nadu, you will be blocked from editing. WackoJacko (talk) 09:58, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Edit Warring

Hi Wasifwasif, I see that you and WacoJacko seem to be in a dispute regarding whether or not this information should be in a list or a category. I encourage you both to try to discuss it on the talk page or on your respective user pages and try to agree to something. Thanks! -- lucasbfr ^talk 10:27, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Upon further inspection, I think the best would be to expand the "districts" articles with informations on each of the that live there, or create Islamic Shrines in Xxxx District articles. Lists are often better than categories to organize content otherwise than alphabetically. You can use === Subsections === to put each tribe in its own section. If the pages get too big, then we'll see if creating separate articles is possible. Good luck! -- lucasbfr ^talk 10:45, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Wasifwasif, I am not in any dispute with you. I just happened to see you blanking the article and thought you were vandalizing it. If you want to move or change and article it is best not to blank the page(delete all the content). Thanks.WackoJacko (talk) 10:53, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Lucasbfr, are you aware that he has also created a category http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Islamic_Shrines_in_Tamil_Nadu, with the same content? That is why he was blanking the page I guess.WackoJacko (talk) 10:58, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

It will be better to have that content which i updated, in a category rather than putting in it a list. Wasifwasif (talk)

hai wackojacko

hai wackojacko, in no way i am warring with you. the contents thereon are my inputs and i need that in a category ISLAMIC SHRINES IN TAMILNADU. Why do you want to delete that, to make it a list.

Hello Wasif, nice to meet you! I realize that you were not edit warring with me. I also realize that you were editing in good faith. I thought that a list would be better than a category, but if more articles are created you could later create a category(there just has to be articles to go in the category). The list is a good way to start out, and you can still have articles in the list. If you need any help just ask me. Thanks!WackoJacko (talk) 13:32, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Muawiyah I. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Please also note the guidelines for Islamic topics at Wikipedia:MOSISLAM, which prohibits the usage of honourifics and curses as is the custom inside the Muslim community. This is an encyclopedia; we cannot pile on honourifics on figures. Ogress _smash! 19:19, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

wackojacko, need a help from you.

how to reevrt an article back to its original position if we found some edits as unwanted.

Hi, Wasif. What is the article, and what are the edits? Just because someone else edited the article does not necessarily mean they should be reverted.WackoJacko (talk) 04:44, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Category creation

Hi Wasif,

You've been creating the same category over and over under slightly different names: Category:Muslim Shrines in Tamilnadu, Category:Islamic shrines in Tamil Nadu, Category:Islamic shrines in Tamilnadu, etc. Please see this discussion from 26 JAN, where is was decided that the list you are including in the category would be turned into a list, which is List of Islamic shrines in Tamil Nadu, and that the category would be deleted. Please do not continue to re-create the category under different names. They will just be deleted over and over. To ignore the discussion result and to bypass that decision is disruptive to Wikipedia and could result in your getting blocked. Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 20:26, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Recreating category

Hey Wasif. I would recommend that you stop recreating that category over and over. You might end up getting blocked otherwise.WackoJacko (talk) 14:19, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

Yes Wasif, I think you should listen to the editors who are trying to help you avoid getting blocked. You created the category again after I specifically asked you not to. If it happens again, you will be blocked. Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 01:23, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for your advice regarding that category. i found Wackojacko commenting as, My english is also not good. Please if you could mention some articles which i have edited and give me an idea how it should be and it shouldn;t? Wasifwasif

Thanks

I wasn't really saying that your English is not good. However, there were some mistakes in the articles that could be improved. Also, English is obviously not your native language. You are still learning it, so there are bound to be mistakes. You have good english for someone who is learning, and it will only get better the more you practice. So, my comment was not meant to insult you at all.

Also, we have to make sure that we keep a neutral tone in the articles we write here. That means that we cannot call a religious prophet "The Great", "The Magnificent", etc. We also cannot use honorifics, it doesn't matter what religion(Christianity, Islam, Judiasm, Hinduism, etc). Remember that this is an encyclopedia, so we need to make it sound like one. Furthermore, we should always use references for any any controversial or hard to believe facts.

I am rather tired now(it is late where I am), but tomorrow I will help you with some of the articles. We can improve them so they will be up to Wikipedia's quality standards.

I will be on tomorrow to help!Wacko Jack O 09:16, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

Evidences

I have evidence for all information which i enter through my edits. Mostly in book format. Do i need to upload it? If so, where should i upload?

Hey Wasif. The references should be cited in the article. Please see Wikipedia:Citing sources, there is also Wikipedia:New_contributors'_help_page.Wacko Jack O 04:47, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

Good job!!!

Wasif, I see you have been learning how to use the references on Wikipedia. Good Job man! Another tip, it's a good idea to keep articles as clear and concise(compact) as possible. Basically, keeping the article as short as possible, while still keeping in all the necessary information.Wacko Jack O 12:41, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

Thank you

Its all with your guidance. and i assure you, i'll improve myself

You are welcome. Wacko Jack O 14:19, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

Image deletion from Muhammad

Please do not delete content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Muhammad, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Also, please read Talk:Muhammad/FAQ to understand why the images are in that article. If you want to discuss improvements related to images, see Talk:Muhammad/images. Thanks. ~Amatulić (talk) 18:09, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Muhammad/images

Please read Talk:Muhammad/FAQ before commenting here, and if you do choose to, please create a new section at the bottom rather than plopping a text box at the top. -- Consumed Crustacean (talk) 03:36, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Uploading free images to Wikimedia Commons

Thank you for uploading images/media to Wikipedia! As you may know, there is another Wikimedia Foundation project called Wikimedia Commons, a central media repository for all free media. In future, please upload media there instead (see m:Help:Unified login). That way, all of the other language Wikipedias can use them too, as well as our many sister projects. This will also allow our visitors to search for, view and use our media in one central location. If you wish to move previous uploads to Commons, see Wikipedia:Moving images to the Commons (you may view previous uploads by going to your user contributions on the left and choosing the 'file' namespace from the drop down box (or see [1]). Please note that non-free content, such as images claimed as fair use, cannot be uploaded to the Wikimedia Commons. Help us spread the word about Commons by informing other users, and please continue uploading! –Drilnoth (T • C) 13:53, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Ervadi dargah

A tag has been placed on Ervadi dargah, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article that does not provide sufficient context to identify its subject. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Speedy deletion nomination of Erwadi dargah

A tag has been placed on Erwadi dargah requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. t'shael ^mindmeld 03:17, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Main_shrine.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Main_shrine.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the GFDL or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MBisanz ^talk 02:04, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Erwadithursdaynightview.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Erwadithursdaynightview.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay.

Madurai Maqbara

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Madurai Maqbara, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Maqbara. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally moving or duplicating content, please be sure you have followed the procedure at Wikipedia:Splitting by acknowledging the duplication of material in edit summary to preserve attribution history.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 06:26, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

More about splitting

Hi. :) I note that you recently performed a split of material to the article Madurai Maqbara, and I just wanted to drop you a note to point out a few things about the procedure. As Wikipedia:Split sets out, when we split material, we have to provide a direct link to the source article. This is necessary because Wikipedia's contributors do not release their material into public domain, but retain rights to authorship under the terms of our licenses, CC-By-SA and GFDL. This wikilink satisfies that requirement by allowing readers to access the history and see who contributed what and when. Usually, we put into the edit summary something along the lines of "Split from Sourcearticle". Then, we note the split as well in an edit summary at the source article. That would read like "Material split to destination article", in this case. This helps make sure that the article is not later deleted, as it cannot be as long as the article to which the material has been split remains. We also have an optional template for the talk pages of both articles at {{Copied}} (instructions for using it found there). I have fixed the problems with this split, but I wanted to let you know for future use. Thanks, and if you have any questions about this, please feel free to leave a line at my talk page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Kanavai

A tag has been placed on Kanavai, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, you will be blocked from editing. I am concerned about your recent edits. I found three articles where you had placed the same shrine in three different villages and now I notice that you've also place it in Thiruparankundram. This looks very much like vandalism to me. I see that you have been warned several times recently over your editing. You should make sure that anything you add to wikipedia is accurate and has proper references. If you do not improve you will probably be blocked from editing this encyclopedia. andy (talk) 15:46, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

Karseri

Hi, Wasifwasif!

The article Karseri was nominated for speedy deletion because it was essentially the same as Kanavai and Melakkal. All three articles were only a sentence long each, and all three claimed to be the location of the Holy Grave of Hazrat Varushai Syed Ibrahim. The grave can't be in three locations at once, and if they are the same place, then only one article is needed. I suggest finding a reliable source that states the fact, and re-creating one article using that source.

Thanks, and happy editing! -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 14:03, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

Thanks SatyrTN for your valuable suggestions. I would like to mention here that Kanavai and Melakkal are same referring to the Holy Grave of Hazrat Varushai Syed Ibrahim. But Karseri is different.

Sorry, I do realise that it might seem that I'm being fussy. But let me assure you that I'm not trying to pull you down. Having said that, if it is a photograph you clicked yourself, you should have the original without a banner. Wikipedia does not encourage banners or watermarks on the images.

Improper page move

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Swami Vivekananda a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. Abecedare (talk) 11:02, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

Note: In case of the Swami Vivekananda article, since the article renaming is disputed, you need to start a move request so that the renaming can be discussed and a consensus reached.

Hi, can you pls readd the move request to talk page (see Wikipedia:RM#Requesting_a_single_page_move) instead of the article page, so that this can be discussed. Cheers, --TheMandarin (talk) 11:29, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Malai Murasu

A tag has been placed on Malai Murasu requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for organizations and companies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Rollbacker Rights

You will have to apply at WP:PERM/R. You have to explain why you need it. I did not go through that route, I was reverting vandalism regularly in Tamil Nadu related articles, when an admin noticed me and made be a rollbacker.--Sodabottle (talk)

Proposed deletion of Afsar Hussain

The article Afsar Hussain has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. ALI ^{nom nom} 15:05, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

POV on Saffron Terror

Your recent edit to Saffron Terror seemed a bit POV-ish, as you removed the balancing, critical sentence in the lead with an edit summary that made little to no sense. I would ask that you don't do such a thing again. Silver seren^C 18:03, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

Warning

Your have tried to insert a lot of Original Research to Ramanathapuram district and Madurai articles. In Madurai, you inserted a source which said nothing about what you cited inline. If this behavior of yours persist, you will reported to Wikipedia:AN/I; which will result in the block of your account and your IP range. 110.225.228.141 (talk) 08:30, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Religionwise data for TN Cities

I have reverted your edits to Ramanathapuram. Unfortunately (for some strange reason) Census doesnt put out religion wise data for any admin unit less than a district. The Urban/Rural division in the religion data is for all cities in the district. For instance the 22% Muslim / 5 % Christian /72 % Hindu data is for the total population of three towns - Ramanathapuram, Mandapam and Keelakarai, not Ramanathapuram alone. So it would be a mistake to give the proportion to Ramanathapuram city alone. --Sodabottle (talk) 15:50, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

Could you please give the link to substanbtiate your above statement so that i can also use it further for getting population data. Wasifwasif (talk) 10:16, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

Check the census 2001 link (PCA wise data). For religion it doesnt go below District Level. There is a Urban/Rural divide for State and District. But not for Corporations/Municipalities/Panchayats. When we look at Town/Panchayat data, Religion is absent from it. --Sodabottle (talk) 10:21, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

As per this link, Urban population for the entire district is 302,394 and Muslim population out of it is 67,684 (22.4 %). This 302,394 is not for Ramanathapuram City alone, but for all 11 cities (municipalities and Town Panchayats) in the district. Here is the city wise urban population breakup for Ramnathapuram district (Obtained from here).

Sl No	Name	Total / Rural / Urban	Total Households	Total Population	Male Population	Female Population	Sex Ratio
1	Keelakarai (TP)	Urban	5863	30412	14047	16365	1165
2	Mandapam (TP)	Urban	3291	16343	8254	8089	980
3	Ramanathapuram (M)	Urban	12952	62050	31111	30939	994
4	Sayalgudi (TP)	Urban	2524	12052	6052	6000	991
5	Abiramam (TP)	Urban	1427	6638	3238	3400	1050
6	Kamuthi (TP)	Urban	2781	13137	6324	6813	1077
7	Mudukulathur (TP)	Urban	2839	13126	6530	6596	1010
8	Paramakudi (M)	Urban	18946	84321	42101	42220	1003
9	Rameswaram (TP)	Urban	8030	37968	19604	18364	937
10	R.S.Mangalam (TP)	Urban	2422	11043	5391	5652	1048
11	Thondi (TP)	Urban	2860	15304	7434	7870	1059
TOTAL			302394

Thus we cannot use the Religion breakup for all urban areas for any city alone. (I found this out sometime back when trying to mine religion data for Coimbatore) --Sodabottle (talk) 11:33, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

Fine. So what i infer is, Urban msulim population (might include ramanathapuram, Kadaladi, Paramakudi, Keelakkarai etc) is 22.4%. Wasifwasif (talk) 13:40, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

Correct it is 22.4 % for the 11 municipalities+town panchayats.--Sodabottle (talk) 13:49, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

A heads up

Wasif,

All the "software companies in XXX" articles might get deleted. A few of them are being AfD ed now successfully. so consensus is moving against such articles. (mostly because this reads like a directory). To avoid deletion, i suggest the Software companies in Madurai article to be converted to a "Economy of Madurai" article and to reduce the list/directory feel. The addition of smaller companies - which do not qualify for their own articles should be avoided. That is the main reason such articles violate WP:NOTDIRECTORY and get AfDed.--Sodabottle (talk) 08:43, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

conference

Wasif, the situation is not clear yet. No id cards/accreditions have been given still. Only one organiser has been given accredition and he is escorting us in and out (without id card we cant get in and out). Situation will become clear by evening. I will put your name / reserve a place in the list of organisers.--Sodabottle (talk) 06:35, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

I just enquired with Ta Wiki Ravi. For saturday, there will be no restrictions on who volunteers. So you can come and join us at the stall. He says once the conference opens today evening, there will be no security restrictions. To get our contact details, use the "email this user link" in my user page and send an email with your email id. i will mail the phone /email addresses you will need to contact us on saturday--Sodabottle (talk) 06:40, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

I have mailed you the necessary details. Please revert. Hope will get an accredition and can take part in this rare happening without much hassle. Wasifwasif (talk) 09:15, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of List of Software companies in Madurai

The article List of Software companies in Madurai has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

notability as a group is where, exactly?

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Ironholds (talk) 22:40, 31 July 2010 (UTC)

Proposed Deletion for James Umar McConnell

I am somewhat new still learning and do not want to stack the deck in favor of McConnell, but there is not one person in the discussion who understands the subject. Would you care to weigh in. Thank you. Let me know if this is considered wrong behavior. Thank you. James Umar McConnell BeNothing (talk) 08:18, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

Bait Al Fassi

An article is not properly categorized just because it has a stub template on it; stub templates are for temporary maintenance and get removed from the article as soon as it's expanded beyond stub length. The {{uncat}} template has to stay on the article until it actually has a real, permanent content category on it — one which isn't being artificially transcluded by a template and doesn't have the word "stub" in it. Thanks. Bearcat (talk) 21:29, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

Articles for deletion nomination of List of Software companies in Madurai

I have nominated List of Software companies in Madurai, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Software companies in Madurai. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Hi, I have reverted your page move. The reasons are given in the talk page of the concerned article. Please discuss potentially controversial page moves in the talk pages and build a consensus first. Thanks. Shovon (talk) 05:07, 6 September 2010 (UTC)

September 2010

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. A contribution you made to Mecca Masjid bombing appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe this important core policy. Thank you. Shovon (talk) 17:44, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to 2002 Gujarat violence. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Shovon (talk) 17:55, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

Please stop. Continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Thiruparankundram, without resolving the problem that the template refers to may be considered vandalism. Further edits of this type may result in your being blocked from editing Wikipedia. Shovon (talk) 11:37, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

This is the final warning you will receive regarding your disruptive edits. If you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at Category:Saffron Terrorism, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Shovon (talk) 15:19, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

I'm afraid that I'm going to have to ask you to not remove that notice again. It doesn't matter if you've 'started a discussion elsewhere', there is at discussion at CFD. Removing that notice interferes with that discussion. If you remove it again I'm going to have to block you for disruption. Syrthiss (talk) 15:28, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

CFD template

Wasif, CFD and AFD templates are not like Prod templates. They should not be removed when the discussion is going on. Only the closing admin can remove them after closing the discussion itself (which results in keep, delete or no consensus). Don't remove the template again (it is considered disruptive and doing it multiple times despite being asked specifically not to do so is considered borderline vandalism)--Sodabottle (talk) 15:30, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|Your reason here}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.
