	Well, thank you :) You know, I am the one who proposed that article as FAID, so I even felt obliged to improve it! --] 16:46, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

			Just to let you know that I've just been informed that several (extremely useful and informative) articles on sport (such as ]) that I both update and use for research, have just been needlessly deleted. I am told by the IP editor of this article that a group of objectionable admins are grouping together to purge articles on sport and sports statistics. This is extremely irritating - as a sports journalist such articles are invaluable and easily the best resource of their kind on the web. If Misplaced Pages is intending to make itself less useful, informative and detailed for the sake of it I can't see the point of me continuing to use it or contribute to it. Somebody has taken it to 'deletion review' (which I don't understand) and I wish them luck. If you can help in any way please let me know. I contribute a lot to WP and have donated in the past but now I'm not getting my reward I feel it would be pointless for me to do so again.

			I would like to argue for a separate WikiSport section which would solve the argument once and for all.

It's already been reverted but if it happens again I'd revert it and leave a message on the talk page with a link to ].

	] ] 06:48, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

			Hi. You may be interested in participating in the ''']''' 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. --] (]) 21:12, 6 October 2016 (UTC)

	'''Hindi wikipedia invites and welcomes Wikipedians to contribute for the cause of spreading knowledge and the Hindi language.''' This page contains guidelines for writing a wiki-article on any topic at the Hindi Misplaced Pages, with special recommendations for writing in Hindi (Note: The script/font-family for Hindi is '''Devanāgari'''; the script/font-system for English is '''Roman''' script, also, the Hindi spelling system is not completely standardized). This article is yet in English language (mostly), in order to encourage even non-native/foreign people who have learnt/are learning Hindi to contribute to the Hindi wikipedia, and native Hindi speakers who normally write in English. The examples given below are only for explanation.

			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'''.
	Recommendations:
	#Firstly for proper viewing, it is recommended to keep all links NOT-UNDERLINED. Otherwise the मात्रा below the Hindi alphabets might get partly hidden behind the underlines. For this, please go to My Preferences (मेरी पसंद) at the top of the page, then click Misc., and then choose "underline links -> Never". Save your settings. Also, do not click yes for "justify paragraphs", otherwise on some browsers, the devanagari script will appear highly distorted.
	#All users are requested and encouraged to contribute articles here, especially, to create new articles on general topics. They are also encouraged to expand the existing articles, and improve upon them. A non-user can also do the same; it is recommended but not required to register yourself as a wikipedian user at the Hindi wikipedia. As far as possible, each article should be written with a Neutral Point of View (NPOV)—no nationalistic or partiality or hatred based articles are welcome. The articles should be based on ''facts''—and appropriate references should be provided as and where needed. See the English wiki's ]. Almost all the general wiki-features are available for editing on Hindi wiki too. Guidelines for the content matter is mostly the same as given in English wiki.
	#Since the Hindi wiki is at its initial stages, users are welcome to take introduction and basic points from the English (or another) wikipedia's corresponding article and translate them for small articles. An in-page link to the English wiki's article will be deemed sufficient for references (a template might be created stating this). For longer articles, it is recommended to mention the references separately.
	#Since most computer users in India and elsewhere have the standard Western-type keyboard, it is best recommended (but not necessarily required) to use the virtual (software) keyboard like the one of or —which are freewares. These are advantageous because the contemporary Hindi-speakers in India often write messages/chat using Hindi words but written in Roman (English) script, and the layout of these keyboards is quite the same that such people use. For example, using the "normal" keyboard with this software, typing ''ga'' would give ग and ''ghaa'' would give घा.
	#Create the article with its name written in Hindi (devanagari script). Always take care to include the nukta (dot below) for foreign / Urdu loanwords wherever it occurs in the standard spelling. For non-Indian names, use that spelling (for article name and other words) which is commonly encountered in Hindi newspapers, G.K.-books, Hindi-dubbed TV documentaries and Hollywood films and magazines. e.g., America-अमरीका (या अमेरिका), China-चीन, French-फ़्रांसिसी. For English acronyms/short-forms, use the initials in Roman script, and again create a full form in Hindi and redirect it to the short form. e.g. ] (अन्तर्राष्ट्रीय ध्वनि वर्णाक्षर); ] (संयुक्त राष्ट्र संघ). Doing the opposite is also fine. But creating the article with the Hindi short form, as सं०रा०सं०, is not recommended. Also, the article proper must be written with the proper nukta, as फ़ारसी, and then, a non-nukta (mis-)spelt version फारसी should preferably be created to redirect to the correct spelling.
	#Hindi wikipedia strongly recommends the users to write articles in everyday common Hindi in the खड़ीबोली dialect (Hindustani or Hindi-Urdu, i.e., बोलचाल वाली हिन्दी, which may include many loanwords from Persian and Arabic). The use of शुद्ध संस्कृतनिष्ठ हिन्दी is in general neither required nor recommended. E.g., use: वजह instead of कारण, ख़ास instead of विशेष, वगैरह instead of इत्यादि, लेकिन instead of परन्तु etc. However, for ''technical'' and ''specialized'' vocabulary, the use of शुद्ध संस्कृतनिष्ठ हिन्दी is recommended and usually mandatory. Thus: ''upper House of Parliament''—संसद का उच्च सदन, but not Urdu—मजिलिस का ऐवान-ए-बाला ; ''Foreign Minister''—विदेशमन्त्री, but not Urdu—वज़ीर-ए-ख़ारिजा ; ''knowledge/science''—ज्ञान/विज्ञान, but not इल्म. Use spoken Hindi's ये and वो instead of यह and वह / वे. Do not use the title of respect जी after names, it is unencyclopedic. Thus: कृष्ण / श्री कृष्ण but not कृष्ण जी. Use the आप form and its corresponding 3rd person verbal conjugation for writing about respectable persons. Thus: श्री वाजपेयी मध्य प्रदेश में जन्मे थे. But not: वाजपेयी मध्य प्रदेश में जन्मा था. But do not use the pronoun "आप" itself in-text in biographies.
	#English should be used sparingly, only when required; i.e., if the corresponding शुद्ध हिन्दी word is too "difficult and not generally encountered", or if it is a proper name of non-Indian person/place/terminology/title, or if the user is highly unsure of the proper translation. It is recommended (but not required) for English-to-Hindi translation while writing articles, the should be used. For each English word, that alternative should be used which is generally encountered in everyday spoken Hindi, and also fits well into the context. Use of intelligent guesses for newly encountered words is also allowed, and so are translations encountered in Hindi-dubbed TV documentaries, Hollywood films, Hindi-translated books, etc. e.g., दमपिशाच for ] (used in dubbed HP films).
	#If used, it is recommended to use the English words within the articles using the English (Roman) alphabets rather than devanagari (or better, the devanagari transliteration should be used in the sentence, followed by the English word in Roman alphabet in parentheses). Such words should be italicized and not put in quotation marks. Preferably, there should be an in-page interwiki link (like :en:) on the word to the English wikipedia. If the word comes as an integral part of a sentence, so as not to break the continuity, the ''en:'' prefix should be hidden by writing the word again after the pipe sign (piped link). Thus, recommended: <code><nowiki>हैरी पॉटर ने '']'' के अन्दर '']'' गाँव में लॉर्ड वोल्डेमॉर्ट की माँ '']'' को देखा. '']'' पक्षी के ऊपर एक मेक्सिकन पादरी डा० '']'' ने काफ़ी शोध किया था.</nowiki></code> Whence,
	#*हैरी पॉटर ने '']'' के अन्दर '']'' गाँव में लॉर्ड वोल्डेमॉर्ट की माँ '']'' को देखा
	#*'']'' पक्षी के ऊपर एक मेक्सिकन पादरी डा० '']'' ने काफ़ी शोध किया था
	#Always start the first 1 or 2 lines of the article giving its definition (from any standard dictionary/other wiki) or suitable introduction. Thus, recommended: '''ललिता सहस्रनामन''' हिन्दू धर्मसुधारक ] द्वारा रचित देवी ] को समर्पित एक पूजा-मन्त्र है, जिसे कई हिन्दू रोज़ श्रद्धा से जपते हैं । But not: '''ललिता सहस्रनामन''' मन्त्र जपने के लिये लड्डू-पेड़ा, ताम्बुल, सिन्दूर, लाल चुनरी के साथ नित्य इस मन्त्र का पाठ करें, तो जल्द ही गड़ा हुआ ख़जाना मिलेगा । Recommended: '''वैमानिक अभियान्त्रिकी''' (]) ] (]s) की अभिकल्पना, निर्माण और प्रचालन करने का विज्ञान, कला और कार्य है । (''translated from Eng. Webster's New World Dictionary''). But not: आजकल वैमानिक अभियान्त्रिकी के लिये देशभर में कई कॉलेज खुल गये हैं, जिनमें अग्रणी स्थान यूटोपिया स्थित लालू-यादव टेक्लिनक कॉलेज का है ।
	#For names of countries, cities, places, languages, people, books, films, technical vocabulary, mythology, etc, start the article like this:
	#* 1. <code><nowiki>The name in bold ('''अपोलो''') </nowiki></code>
	#* 2. <code><nowiki>starting parenthesis, then English name in Roman script, in-page interwiki-linked to English wiki ff. by semicolon ((अंग्रेज़ी : ];) </nowiki></code>
	#* 3. <code><nowiki>The native name(s) if applicable in the italicized native script, preferably followed either by its italicized approximate Hindi pronunciation or non-italicized </nowiki></code>]<code><nowiki> within / /, ff. by closed parenthesis (यूनानी : ''Aπollων अपोल्लोन'')) </nowiki></code>
	#* 4. <code><nowiki>the rest of the definition or introduction (प्राचीन ] (ग्रीक धर्म) और प्राचीन ] के सर्वोच्च देवता थे ।)</nowiki></code> For country names, only the standard short form of the name is needed in the first line. If there is a common name for a difficult word in Hindustani, also mention it. Whence: '''अपोलो''' (अंग्रेज़ी : ]; यूनानी : ''Aπollων अपोल्लोन'') प्राचीन ] (ग्रीक धर्म) और प्राचीन ] के सर्वोच्च देवता थे । If you don't give the interwiki English/another language link (which would be deemed to be the default reference), then you MUST provide an appropriate reference.
	#Please leave no article without an appropriate category. See the list of created categories ]; you can also make a new category (pref. in Hindi). Please leave no article without at least '''ONE''' off page (like en:) interwiki link. E.g., the user can check the article name (say Apollo) on the finally redirected English page and append to the Hindi article (<code><nowiki>])</nowiki></code>). These interlanguage links will help a bot to update all interwiki links for that article in all wikipedias. The category and the aforementioned link should be typed at the end of the article. If the article is very small, mention it as a stub/substub.
	#Use of templates is welcome. See the list of templates ]. If creating a template, name it pref. in Hindi.
	#Use पूर्णविराम ( । ) instead of a period (.) for ending statements. The पूर्णविराम, semicolon, colon and dash (but not comma) must come after one space after the word to prevent ambiguity. Use the international form of the Hindu-Arabic numerals (1,2,3 instead of १,२,३), as used by the Constitution and the Government of India (even for Hindi). There is no need to use the हलन्त at the end of Sanskrit words wherever it occurs. Hence, prefer: संसद over संसद्; अथर्वन over अथर्वन्. Use the proper quotation marks “” from the Insert toolbox, not "". Write dates as 2 मई 2006 (ईसवी or ईसापूर्व). Write time as 3:45 pm. Separate common suffix-words like शास्त्र, विज्ञान, ज्ञान with a hyphen. Thus: रसायन-शास्त्र. For most others, leave both the words of the noun-cluster free. Combine them into one word only if it is very common to do so. Thus: सामवेद.
	#The use of '''ज़''' for the ] (/z/, as in '''z'''oo, ro'''s'''e) is fundamentally wrong. Its nearest counterpart is the ] /s/ (as in '''s'''ea), and not Hindi ज (]). Hence, it is suggested and recommended that for the sound /z/, whether it comes in English (etc.) spellings (z) for while pronunciation otherwise, should be transcribed as '''स़''' (स with a dot below, available in the Insert toolbox). Hence: Reason '''रीस़न''', not रीज़न ; Roses '''रोस़ेस़''', not रोज़ेज़. But common Hindi words borrowed from Persian/Arabic (so-called Urdu words) are allowed to continue with ज़ spelling. Thus: ज़रा, नज़र, तर्ज़. The ] (/ʒ/ as in trea'''s'''ure), inexistent in Hindi, can similarly be transcribed with '''श़'''. Thus: treasure '''ट्रॅश़र'''. The nukta (dot) available in the Insert toolbox can be combined with various consonants to suggest a more exact phonetic devanagari rendering of foreign sounds. E.g., since phonetically, English Think and this are not equal to थिंक and दिस, a better transcription could be '''थ़िंक''' and '''द़िस'''. '''Please take care of the dot below in so-called Urdu words, otherwise the Hindi spelling is deemed incorrect'''.
	#For the following English vowels m'''e'''t, m'''a'''te, m'''a'''t, transcribe as मॅट (short vowel), मेट (not मेइट), मैट (not मॅट, as popular in Marathi). However in contemporary Hindi and here, it is acceptable to use ए instead of ऍ. Thus: अमेरिका is more popular than अमॅरिका. For c'''o'''t, c'''oa'''t, c'''au'''ght, transcribe as कॉट, कोट, कॉट (not कौट). Transcribe English /t/ and /d/ as ट and ड.
	#Use half-न before त, थ, द, ध, न, instead of anuswaar अं. Use half-म before प, फ, ब, भ, म. Use the anuswaar before all the rest of the consonants (not half-ङ, ञ, ण). If the मात्रा is not above the alphabet, use chandra-bindu, but only for '''nasalization'''. Thus: अन्दर, not अंदर ; अन्त, not अंत ; हिन्दी, not हिंदी ; सम्भव, not संभव ; पंचमी, not पञ्चमी ; अंडा, not अण्डा ; कंठ, not कण्ठ ; लैंड, not लैण्ड ; आँख, not आंख. However, both forms are acceptable in contemporary Hindi as well as here; the prec. are just recommendations.
	#When proceded by another vowel, use the pure vowels instead of य (unless the य is clearly articulated while pronouncing). Thus : जाएँ, not जायें (not जावें) ; आएगा, not आयेगा . However, both forms are acceptable in contemporary Hindi as well as here.
	#Please pay careful attention to the masculine/feminine gender (and singular/plural) in adjectives and verbs, else the sentence becomes ungrammatical.

Welcome!

Hello, Aabha R, and welcome to Misplaced Pages! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Misplaced Pages:Where to ask a question, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! -- Dave C. 01:06, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Deletion

Hello Mr R,

Just to let you know that I've just been informed that several (extremely useful and informative) articles on sport (such as FA Premier League 2006-07 goalscorers) that I both update and use for research, have just been needlessly deleted. I am told by the IP editor of this article that a group of objectionable admins are grouping together to purge articles on sport and sports statistics. This is extremely irritating - as a sports journalist such articles are invaluable and easily the best resource of their kind on the web. If Misplaced Pages is intending to make itself less useful, informative and detailed for the sake of it I can't see the point of me continuing to use it or contribute to it. Somebody has taken it to 'deletion review' (which I don't understand) and I wish them luck. If you can help in any way please let me know. I contribute a lot to WP and have donated in the past but now I'm not getting my reward I feel it would be pointless for me to do so again.

I would like to argue for a separate WikiSport section which would solve the argument once and for all.

Thanks for your time and continued effort, Mjefm 15:47, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

There is a new project about your WikiSport section. It's virgin, so you can start all the project. Please, contact with the Administrator of this web to change any setting of the wiki.

Kind regards. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.145.148.10 (talk) 18:35, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages talk:Notability (people)#Regarding notability of Football (soccer) players

Hi, seeing you are interested in football this is an invitation to contribute to this discussion to clarify certain issues about football player notability. I think clearer guidelines are needed to avoid repeated inappropriate nominations for deletion and time consuming discussions. Cheers! StephP 20:15, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Churchill Brothers logo.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Churchill Brothers logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 04:46, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Image:Andreev7_montreal2005.jpg listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Andreev7_montreal2005.jpg, has been listed at Misplaced Pages:Images and media for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

WP:CVU status

The Misplaced Pages:Counter-Vandalism Unit project is under consideration to be moved to {{inactive}} and/or {{historical}} status. Another proposal is to delete or redirect the project. You have been identified as a project member and your input as to this matter would be welcomed at WT:CVU#Inactive.3F and at the deletion debate. Thank you!

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:1993-1.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:1993-1.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Misplaced Pages:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Misplaced Pages policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 04:01, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Invite to WikiConference India 2011

Hi Aabha R,

The First WikiConference India is being organized in Mumbai and will take place on 18-20 November 2011.
You can see our Official website, the Facebook event and our Scholarship form.

But the activities start now with the 100 day long WikiOutreach.

We look forward to see you at Mumbai on 18-20 November 2011

Wikimedia Stories Project

Hello,

My name is Victor Grigas, and I'm a storyteller at the Wikimedia foundation. We're telling stories of Misplaced Pages users, editors, donors, programmers and staff to paint a picture of who uses Misplaced Pages - for the 2011 fundraiser.

I am in the process of planning a trip to India to gather stories from Indian Wikipedians in face-to-face interviews (possibly on video).

My primary goal is to conduct 15-20 interviews, and hopefully enough of my interviews will make compelling stories that will effectively solicit donations from the public. These stories may also be used for other communication purposes by the foundation.

I found your userpage on a list of prolific Wikipedians and thought I’d reach out to you. Prolific editing is always a good story to tell!

If you are interested in participating, please contact me via my email:

vgrigas@wikimedia.org

Thank you for your time!

Victor

Football kit editing

Hey Mr. R!!

Looks like you are a great wikipedia editor. I was wondering if you could give this unexperience user some help...I am trying to add some historical kits to the Peru national football team page. I want to creat some new patterns but I dont know how to. I can creat a kit with the existing patterns but I want to creat some specific kits that cannot be replicated with any of the existing patterns. I want to know what software to use and how to upload the information.I hope to hear from you soon. --Critviz (talk) 01:12, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

Invite to the African Destubathon

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) 21:12, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
