Invitation

I'd like to invite everyone to join the WikiProject R&B and Soul Music. We are currently on demand for new members, the project was dying, but with your help we can revive it and make it one of the best WikiProjects. Make me sure that you'll think about this and remember cooperative works can do amazing things. Regards Dfrr (talk) 06:19, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

Do reply me with this issue

Sir... I can understand that there are certain rules and restrictions in Misplaced Pages which are indeed proper as the edit,which can be done by any one,can cause the defects in the article(even though my case is different as "the person on whom the article is ,is herself wants me to edit it ).So,Plz give me the guidelines for the edit in the article...which i want to do. So what should i do to get reference as the text which i want to put in is not published on website..so is reference from Facebook verified official page of person whose article is allowed... So conformation of the real person about the text in edit can be put... do reply me and tell what sholud be done... - yours sincerely

well..dont go on wrong note

sir.... its not like that Mishti wants to control what goes on wikipedia... its that we want the article with full and true information.. we didnt mean to say that....................

Ayurveda

John the admin, who currently doesn't appear to watch Ayurveda though he does rule it with an iron thumb, is likely to sanction you for using the word "quack." Grandmothers and eggs comes to mind here Mr. TrPoD, but I wanted to say. regards. -Roxy the Viking dog™ (resonate) 13:00, 14 April 2015 (UTC)

Kerala hothead

Hi TRPOD, in case you don't get the ping, there's a discussion at ANI about the incivil IP hopper from Kerala, should you wish to participate. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 15:56, 14 April 2015 (UTC)

James Gill (artist)

Hello, I plan to completely review the article "James Gill (artist)" as it contains a number of violations. The new version (which will be in line with the article in German and French Misplaced Pages) will fully replace the present entries. - Norbert Schott (talk) 21:26, 14 April 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for your trust! I will take care of the article but this will take a little while. What's still unclear to me is why it is not possible to move the article from "James Gill (artist)" to "James Gill" - as there is no article about "James Gill" yet as it seems. Norbert Schott (talk) 07:18, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

Hello, I think to gather works at one place is basically a good idea, but in this case I prefer to put them where they were before => It doesn't take much extra space, I will not add more images and the article will be in line with the German and French version. Not to forget that I will work on more languages like IT end ES, so the structure of this article should basically be the same. Thanks for the other edits! :-) Regards, Norbert Schott (talk) 18:41, 17 April 2015 (UTC)

Reporters

What is your problem buddy? You complain about lack of reliable sources. I add reliable sources and you remove them. If you don't like the page, take it to AfD. rather than deleting the content!!!! Coderzombie (talk) 15:26, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

Though I agree the article has a lot of promotional material and I removed most of the promotional blurb kind of sources. But at least keep the content from reliable sources like Newslaundry, Firstpost, Times of India, Indian Express. That's the reason I have not added any good reviews by non-reliable sources. Coderzombie (talk) 15:33, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

Ayurveda

I was reading over your recent discussion with User:Wujastyk on the Ayurveda talk page, and I'm a bit troubled. My biggest concern with that page is that with all the fighting and squabbling and sanctions, the editors who we really want editing the article will be driven off and only the POV warriors will remain, leading to unstable articles swinging between extremes, stacked with sources but in the end unhelpful to the readers. I totally understand wanting to make sure good science is represented, but I fear that you are playing into the problem. Re-read what User:Wujastyk has said...I think you are misunderstanding their position...trying to paint him into a corner that he's not actually in. ~Adjwilley (talk) 03:31, 16 April 2015 (UTC)

Corona Del Mar High School

It is really two schools, and I had placed photos of both of them, the "High School", as well as the "Middle school", on the page. I don't think that 4 (photos) could qualify as a real "quadzillion", but I am going to restore the middle school photo as it does belong on the page. Cheers! talk→ WPPilot  14:42, 16 April 2015 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

Hi. Maybe it's not clear but I started editing the Park page in order to help and find a middle ground in order at some point to remove the NPOV tag. I provided a bunch of links presenting the other side. Some of them were already in the talk page months before I arrive there. I am not trying to push any POV and I sorry that I may have given this impression.

I am not good in article building (even though I try to improve) and I was hoping my contributions would be the start for someone else to improve the page further.

Please work in the direction to create a neutral page for Park containing all the info from both sides.

As you may see I also left questions in RS about the links I provided asking for more opinions and the conclusions will be beneficial not only for Park's page.

Anyway. Keep the good work. Thanks.

Endurance International Group

Greetings. I'm not sure why you would decide to avoid the "talk" section for Endurance International Group and revert the article once again, based on a judgement call you've made. You're actually removing valuable data from our encyclopedia because you feel it looks like a "directory". If that's the case, then by all means, do feel free to contribute by editing this "directory" into a paragraph that does not look so directory-ish to you - but retains the information. Please do not destroy value in articles because you do not care for the formatting. Also, please be careful here as these reverts are close to violating the sprit, and subtance, of the WP:Revert only when necessary rule, and that is never good for editors or the project. Again, if you have issues, use the "talk" section and provide the specific Misplaced Pages policy that you feel is not being followed. Thank you. 72.234.220.38 (talk) 04:26, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

Kudos for answering questions accurately. If it wouldn't cramp your style, throw in a handful of friendly words as well. Thanks. Cullen Let's discuss it 05:55, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

Aligarh Muslim University

The information about the Faculties and Departments should not note categories as promotional content. Several University pages like Delhi University , Jawaharlal Nehru University contain those informations then why this disparity? Expecting an answer. Zon (talk) 16:12, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

Why do you redirect

Why are you always in the habit of redirecting TV shows articles. I had removed routine promotional plugs and added reliable sources of The Times of India, Indian Express, The Hindu. These newspapers are very big and popular in India. These newspapers are not routine promotional plugs, but are reliable sources. I want your reply or I will again restore these articles: Mohi, Tum Hi Ho Bandhu Sakha Tumhi, Yeh Ishq Nahin Aasaan (TV series) and Gulmohar Grand 122.176.10.48 (talk) 13:03, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

If you think that the sources which I have linked in those articles are promotional blather, than which sources are reliable? Promos of these TV shows have been aired on the respective TV channels and people can search those topics on Misplaced Pages. Now you tell me, if you keep on redirecting TV shows articles, where they will find those articles on Misplaced Pages? 122.176.10.48 (talk) 13:16, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

Reply

If they fail in establishing significant coverage about future event, then how many sources do you need to claim future event? I think 2-3 sources are enough to claim future events. If I find more reliable sources on the web, I promise you that I will add them to these articles. Please reply. 122.176.10.48 (talk) 13:34, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

Reply

If it's not the number, but material, then if I add some more relevant material within these sources, would it be OK for you? 122.176.10.48 (talk) 13:44, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

Reply

Thanks very much for contributing on the articles which you were earlier in a habit of redirecting those articles! I should say that it is the best to contribute on articles, rather than redirecting them. 122.176.10.48 (talk) 18:27, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

100 Days of Love

Why would one regard reviews from Nowrunning.com and Yentha.com as non-professional. Nowrunning review is written by Veeyen who has been reviewing Malayalam films since mid nineties in Indian Express's Screen India magazine. His reviews are published online since at lease 1998 making him one of the first online critics for Malayalam films. Also, Yentha.com is a much appreciated news website based in Kerala. Please reconsider your edit. Thanks. Malayala Sahityam (talk) 19:50, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

Regarding Venus Project redirect

Normally a redirect is proposed using the Misplaced Pages:Proposed mergers instructions. Alternatively, an AfD discussion may result in a redirect.

See discussion at Talk:The_Venus_Project#no_there_there.

You say there is no indication consensus of AFD has changed, but this is just speculation without going through the proper procedure.

Perhaps a Misplaced Pages:Third opinion is needed. Jonpatterns (talk) 11:33, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Need help with promotional articles

I've found a series of articles that seem promotional to me, and I'd like to hear your opinion on them, as you know more about this area than me. Though the films are American productions, the sources are frequently Bollywood-related, and some of these sources look suspicious to me. Can you look at Rohit Gupta, Another Day Another Life, and Life! Camera Action...? (Corridor film and Midnight Delight (film) are just stubs and apparently haven't gotten the promotional treatment yet.) My concern is that apparent SPAs are editing these articles to promote Rohit Gupta and his films. I'm not a very good judge of Bollywood sources, but I can tell when an article is promotional ("The making and success of the film is widely considered as an important touchtone of the digital-age film movement...", "...received universal acclaim and its message widely praised..."). I don't really know where to begin on cleaning up these articles. If you've got the time, please take a look. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 15:10, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Corona Del Mar High School

I see that you have already been over this with DaltonHird on the above mentioned page. looks like a WP:SPA account for bashing the school. talk→ WPPilot  03:55, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

I hit it with a RFC, please chime in. --talk→ WPPilot  05:23, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Holidays and Indian film releases

There are sources indeed. For the record, generally few Indian films releases coincide with festivals like Sankranthi, Ugadi, Dusshera, Deepavali and Christmas. There were films whose makers fixed their release date to take advantage of the holidays. Article can be created but it is a herculean task and requires huge man work and time, which can't be found for now since examinations are being conducted currently for many groups. I believe everyone shall be free probably after June 2015. Then i'm sure many can show interest. Thank you! Pavanjandhyala (talk) 12:08, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
