Tip of the moment... Ask intelligent questions When asking a question at the Help desk, Teahouse or the Reference desk, please include all the facts needed to answer the question. Give a link to the page you are asking about, or provide context to your question. For example, do not ask "who was president in 1900?" without mentioning the country you are interested in. This prevents volunteers having to ask follow-up questions before providing answers. Friendly reminder: the Help desk and Teahouse are for questions on how to use and edit Misplaced Pages, while the Reference desk is for questions about anything else (real world questions).

from Bishnupriya Manipuri Wiki

Dear Ganesh,

Today you visited Bishnupriya Manipuri Wiki, and left a question for me that how did I translate 5000 Indian Cities in a short time? First of all I would like to thank you and your script. I was trying to contact with you and left a few lines at Ganeshbot/Requests page (22:52, 26 October 2006 (hist) (diff) User:Ganeshbot/Requests (→Requests for template substitution, replacement, or addition)) for your suggestion and help. Since then no response and page also move to archive or deleted.

Anyway, using your script, I created almost 80% of the Indian city within a month. I translate the database file 1 state at a time just using Windows Notepad, Avro Keybord (UniBijoy). I hope I will finish by next week.

I thank you again, and also I thank Ragib (from Bangla + English wiki) for his help and tips.

I might need some help

Misplaced Pages:Help_desk#Blocking_a_user He's trying to block me.--D-Boy 05:21, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

ok. thanks for the info.--D-Boy 06:03, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Re: Barnstar

Thanks! I plan to grow to as helpful as you are some day :) Thanks again, appreciates. AQu01rius (User • Talk) 07:13, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Tamil people in FAR

Hello Ganesh. Tamil people has been brought to FAR. Please be there and comment. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 15:42, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks

I will have a look but geograhical locations do not interest me generally. You are doing great work. Carry on! -- Seejee 00:44, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

India

This is interesting...someone's been trying to make those changes for a few days now: Special:Contributions/MichaelWolfgang. When I reverted it the first time, I sent a polite note telling him to take it up on the talk page. -- Jim Douglas _(contribs) 03:48, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Ahh, I didn't realize it had been going on so long. The one I reverted was more elaborate, like the guy's trying to make some sort of POV point that India was a nation long before 1947. Thanks for sending that older diff; if I see something like this again, I'll just go ahead and revert it as simple vandalism. -- Jim Douglas _(contribs) 04:05, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Template:WP SouthAsia

Why did you block a template which I created and intended to expand? There is no rational point in blocking Template:WP SouthAsia. I want it unblocked and as I have decided to agree to keep current picture for the time being. Szhaider 12:28, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Re:Please stop removing project tags

Where is that so-called discussion you talk about. I created South Asia tag to REPLACE India tags in those articles which are NOT about present day India. Tagging Pakistan related articles with Ashok Chakkar and calling the entire region India, which is now completely worng, is outrageous and offensive to the Pakistani Wikipedians. Ashok Chakkar is same as Indian flag and reflects favourism for a relogion, i.e. Hinduism which I think is against NPOV. Now using the map of entire region and saying this article is about India; well it is outright outrageous and completely unacceptable. You as an administrator should stay away from this on going dispute as your Indian background is making you take sides against me. Szhaider 18:30, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

What you think is favoritism is not favoritism. Its merely the facts. Pakistani history dates back to the 1930's. No one cares what Pakistani wikipedians think about India, its how documented phenomenon characterize the region. Ganeshk is not trying to be neutral, though he is trying to work a compromise.Bakaman _Bakatalk 04:06, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Ganesh, do you see a pattern here? Compare this rant to the rant above. I'm starting to connect the dots.Bakaman _Bakatalk 04:06, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Taxila`

guess your template change wasn't neutral enough.--D-Boy 19:02, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

How neutral do you want it to be? Szhaider 19:52, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

New Article help wanted

Hi Ganesh, I have created a new article titled Punch Dialogue as per some mentions in the film actor Wiki pages. I would like to ask for help as to how to invite people to edit it. Kindly suggest ways. Thanks Sudharsansn (talk • contribs) 19:16, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Hi Ganesh, thanks for your cat work, it looks all the more crisp now. I will try to add images as per your suggestion. Thanks Sudharsansn (talk • contribs) 09:02, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

script box

Do you think you could start work on a script box for indic scripts? Misplaced Pages:Manual_of_Style_(Korea-related_articles)#Korean_templates is a good reference. The discussion seems to be headed to proposal 3.--D-Boy 04:09, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

I think the languages you should put for now are Bengali, Tamil, Malayam, Kannada, and of course Hindi. Maybe marathi if you want to squeeze it in. The sikh project mostly takes care of the punjabi. Those 5 should get in a good range of east, west , north and south like the cardinal directions of the 4 heavenly kings.--D-Boy 07:14, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Also, can you put in the indic manual of style like the korean one. I really think we should start this because we're always having these edit wars.--D-Boy 07:15, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Oh, you're going to do it like we did for the hindudiety box, where the type the name of the script and the script?--D-Boy 07:20, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

I see.--D-Boy 07:26, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

support for removing the Indus from the "History Of India" page

Ganeshk,I want to express my full support for Shzhaider,regarding the removal of the indus from the History of India page to either the page user:Szhaider has created or move it to the History of Pakistan page(prefferred). If you plan to report this dispute to the administrators notice board,then I want the board members in charge of resolving this dispute to know that he still will recieve my full support.Adding refference of the indus to the India history page is an offence to us Pakistani wikipedians as Szhaider claims.Nadirali 06:40, 2 December 2006 (UTC)Nadirali

...Removal of indus from History of India....

What are you talking about? I suggest you go back and read through my conversations with Szhaider. -- Ganeshk (talk) 06:49, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm sorry. this is just too funny. XD--D-Boy 06:50, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Did Ganeshk ever discuss this dispute. No way. He just strated to support this indian bunch in every way he could and became a part of the dispute. Szhaider 18:27, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Szhaider, I think Nadirali is confusing the IVC issue in article content with my discussion with you on the talk page tagging. The IVC issue should be addressed after discussions on History of India page. I was not part of any such discussion. The talk page tagging issue was discussed at the Indian notice board (under section template logo), I would suggest you and Nadirali read through that link. Nichalp has explained why history should be part of the scope of the regional projects. Please comment over there if you have any objections. Regards, Ganeshk (talk) 19:46, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

For reference - ...,I want to add full support for your edit wars...

Indian history project

I think this issue was once raised in the talk page of Muhammad Iqbal while discussing about whether to call him an "Indian" poet. Check with Rama's Arrow. (I don't have proper internet access for trhe next few weeks.) -- Sundar 10:21, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

By the way, can you please set up Werdnabot for my talkpage? I'll be mostly away in the next few weeks and only partially available later on. May be, I should add separate desks for copyedit requests, policy comment requests, etc., to my talkpage. -- Sundar 10:26, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Re:Scope of India project

I have replied on the Indian noticeboard. =Nichalp «Talk»= 11:10, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Name table

Hi Ganeshk,

Dangerous-Boy mentioned that you were working on an Indian name table, so I wanted to let you know that I mocked one up at User:Visviva/Test. Please feel free to use any of the ideas there, or not, as you see fit. The one I made needs more work -- and almost certainly more languages -- but you'd know better than I exactly what is needed. Cheers, -- Visviva 16:33, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
