Hello there BOTFIGHTER! I am FiendYT, an editor that has been on Wikipedia for only about 1-3 months. We can help each other out with making articles. How's the idea? FiendYT (talk) 02:53, 2 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello FiendYT sorry I took a bit time to reply you, but nice ideas. So lets start suggesting articles!
Sounds good! What topics do you like? Aviation? Gaming? Education? I'm fine with all ideas. FiendYT (talk) 15:09, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, please always sign messages you leave on talk pages and such. FiendYT (talk) 23:26, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hi FiendYT, I would like to first start gaming or aviation, I will start searching for both. Thank you for reminding me! Wish our first article go good. GOOD LUCK, bye!
Sorry for totally forgetting about this! I'm pretty busy and had to ignore your posts for some time. Now that I'm back, I'll also start with gaming or aviation. Good luck to you! FiendYT 15:10, 9 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Gajpanth, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Adinatha. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Vasant Vihar

[edit]

Hello, I have read this article Vasant Vihar, it is full (almost whole) writing goes against the rule of NPOV OR Neutral Point Of View. To inform you there are many places in India of name 'Vasant Vihar', at least this article should have written the article name as 'Vasant Vihar, Delhi', I there is one place called Vasant Vihar in Thane city too. The article looks (written things and photos) like it is an advertise, please check this out. Regards BOTFIGHTER (talk) 11:20, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • BOT, the Speedy Deletion page seems to be the wrong place for this comment. Anyway, you can relatively easily rename the article. Next to the watchlist star is a menu labeled "More". One of the options is move. Move means rename. Choose the move option and enter the new name for the article in the box that follows. Thanks, Oiyarbepsy (talk) 12:59, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
How to rename can you please tell me User:Oiyarbepsy.BOTFIGHTER (talk) 09:04, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Please read WP:MOS. You can leave it precisely where it is. We have no need to rename it. We have very precise methods of disambiguating places of the same name. Fiddle Faddle 15:49, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Goenka & Associates Educational Trust

[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Goenka & Associates Educational Trust 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 credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Gajpanth

[edit]


Just a note: I linked "Balbhadra" to Jainism#Cosmology because I couldn't find anything better. (I was surprised not to find the term in the larger article Jain cosmology.) If you can find a better article to which we can link "Balbhadra", please feel free to change it. Corinne (talk) 18:52, 19 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that, Gajpanth is the right article to link with "Balbhadra", but I have mentioned it before too that my article does not require any copy editing, it is all right I cannot write the exact spelling or pronunciation as it is not a English word this is whole article contains many words which are not in English but in languages like Hindi, Marathi, Prakrut, Sanskrit and many more, the people who made this language didn't gave us the right pronunciation in English, there are many English pronunciation for the same words, this point must be noted! Thank you Corinne!BOTFIGHTER (talk) 12:01, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I'm glad you found an article for the link. I'm not sure to which article you are referring when you say, "My article does not require any copy editing". Which article? Corinne (talk) 15:16, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
About the article 'Gajpanth'BOTFIGHTER (talk) 11:52, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for clarifying. I don't understand your statement, above, that "I have mentioned it before too that my article does not require any copy editing". You posted a request for a copy-edit at the Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Requests on 9 February 2016, and I accepted and completed the assignment. See the list at Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Requests/Archives/2016. Also, your use of the phrase "my article" suggests that you have a feeling of ownership over the article. Please see WP:OWN. You wrote, above, "Thanks for that". It looks like your thanks refer to either my linking of "Balbhadra" to Jainism#Cosmology or to my informing you that I had done so. So, instead of thanking me for copy-editing the article, you tell me that your article "doesn't require any copy editing". Very strange.  – Corinne (talk) 14:15, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
sorry but User:Capankajsmilyo is removing all proper data of the article(this is also known as vandalism) telling that I don't have proper reference! Even if I have given proper reference.BOTFIGHTER (talk) 05:27, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Invite to the African Destubathon

[edit]

Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! So it would be a good chance to win something for improving stubs on African sportspeople, including footballers, athletes, Olympians and Paralympians etc, particularly female ones, but also male. Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing a few expanded articles on African Paralympians, Olympians and committees etc, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. Thanks. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:13, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

[edit]

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant!

Supporting Indian Wikipedia Program resource distribution

[edit]

In 2017 - 2018, the Wikimedia Foundation and Google working in close coordination with the Centre for Internet and Society (CIS), Wikimedia India chapter (WMIN) and user groups will pilot a program encouraging Wikipedia communities to create locally relevant and high-quality content in Indian languages. This program (Code name: Project Tiger) will:

(a) Support active and experienced Wikipedia editors through the donation of laptops and stipends for internet access and
(b) Sponsor a language-based contest that aims to address existing Wikipedia content gaps.

The objective of the program is to provide laptops and internet stipends for existing editors who need support to contribute more actively. 50 basic model Acer Chromebooks and Internet stipends for 100 contributors are available for distribution. Provided resources are the sole property of the beneficiaries and should be used for the betterment of the movement.

If you're an active Wikimedian, and interested to receive support from this project, please apply. It will take around 10 minutes of your time, and will ask descriptive questions about your contribution to Indic Wikimedia projects.

Speedy deletion nomination of Khulta kali khulena

[edit]

Hello, BOTFIGHTER,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username PopePompus, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I have tagged an article that you started, Khulta kali khulena, for deletion, because it is a very short article that doesn't provide readers with enough context to determine who or what the subject is.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the deleting administrator.

For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|PopePompus}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!
