Jharkhand

You can rollback your mistakes by looking at the history tab on the top of your page. Just see the history and click on the date+time. Click on Edit; ignore the warning and save the page. PS your image on Jharkhand districts may be deleted if you do not add the tags for it. Nichalp 19:35, Mar 29, 2005 (UTC)

Our best state page is Sikkim, which is a Featured Article (one of wikipedia's best). It would be a good idea if you can emulate Sikkim. You may also take a look at Goa, which I've almost finished. Nichalp 20:33, Mar 29, 2005 (UTC)

hello from India

Thanks for the note. Welcome to Misplaced Pages. From a glance at your recent contributions it looks like you're doing great work. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 14:27, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Image tags

If the images are created by you then there is no problem. If it is from a site, then you would need to get explicit permission from the site to upload the images. Each image on wikipedia needs to be tagged so that we know the details on how the image is licenced.

Briefly licences are as follows:

1. Public Domain: Publisher has given up all rights to the image and anyone can use it for commercial or non-commercial use.
2. GFDL: Misplaced Pages is licenced under GFDL. Briefly this means that the image may be modified by anyone who wishes to, but would have to credit you as the original developer. Commercial use if any, can only be undertaken if you are contacted.
3. Creative Commons: Similar to Public Domain, but the original author would need to be credited.
4. Copyrighted: not recommended for wikipedia.
5. (There are a few more; such as for flags, logos etc)

To tag an image use the following tags: {{PD}}, {{PD-self}} (if the image is yours), {{CC}} (there are more versions and subgroups here) on the image page. A preferred way of adding the tags is by directly adding the tag in the summary box while uploading. See image:sikkimdistricts.png

If the image is made by you, It would be better if the image was saved as a PNG image file instead of JPEG. If the image is licenced under the first three points, consider uploading it to Misplaced Pages Commons so that the image can be shared by other wikipedia languages.
