== Seeking your help to translate from English == |
|||
Hello my fellow Wikipedian, |
|||
Thanks for taking your time off to help hapless Wikipedians and otherwise stucked-up articles find their way to the forefront of other non-English speaking readers. |
|||
I would hope that I have approached you the right way. |
|||
Nonetheless, I humbly seeks your intervention to translate the following pages from English to your native tongue, since I gathered that it may mean something to Wiki readers in other languages. |
|||
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Letters_to_Obama |
|||
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Adonis |
|||
Thanks in anticipation for facilitating this request. |

Hello!!
Hello, its good to see a Hindu from our neighbouring country...otherwise Hindu meant only Indian :-) Welcome!! Rohitbd 10:13, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
- Don't think that hidus only live in India. I'm a native Sri Lankan but I'm a Hindu, Most of the Sri lankan Tamils are hindus but most the sinhalees are budist not hindus. TC :--Mayooresan 10:19, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
- Oh I didn't mean that Hindus live only in India - just that we as a community are the least spread across the world...and if I come across a Hindu, he/she is almost always Indian (or the occassional NRI/foreigner of Indian origin)...Indeed, if you look at the Category:Hindu Wikipedians, most are either Indians or NRIs or PIOs or of Indian origin. Rohitbd 10:31, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
Yeah I agree with you Anyway nice to meet you too :-) --Mayooresan 10:34, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

That is a article which is violating the wiki rules I'm sorry now it has been blocked.--Mayooresan 09:59, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
Ashantha De Mel
I was just updating List of Sri Lankan ODI cricketers, and I noticed the case of Ashantha De Mel. Cricinfo use both de Mel and De Mel, other sources also use both. Do you happen to know which is more likely, or indeed, actually correct? --Paul 08:27, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
I have no idea about this. I'll ask from my frind who's name is De Silva, Hope he will gimme the answer. Thanks--Mayooresan 09:51, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
Sorry he also not aware of it bcos people use both capital and small letters for the name. Really sorry.--Mayooresan 02:40, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

Could you please comment on Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Appadurai_Muttulingam? Thanks, Ganeshk (talk) 13:11, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
Sorry I don't have any idea. I think it's better not to vote for either delete or keep. Thanks--Mayooresan 09:59, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
Scouting article work
If you are getting this, it is because you do or did work on Scouting articles (see Wikipedia:WikiProject_Scouting#Participants_and_primary_areas_of_interest).
As the Scouting WikiProject has been formed since early January 2006, we've had many great improvements made in this area of Wiki and I want to personally thank everyone for their help. We don't always agree on things, but we keep moving forward. YIS, Rlevse 22:09, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Sinhala writing
Vanakkam Mayooresan! You seem to know a lot about rendering Tamil letters in WP. Do you know how to render Sinhala script as well? I would greatly appreciate your help on this. Thanks in anticipation, Krankman 23:16, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
Hi Mayooreesan!
(I still haven't figured out how to render Sinhala script. But that's not the problem at the moment.) User:Pjacobi recommended you to me in this matter. I know that since you are Tamil your position in this question is a little difficult, yet I am kindly asking you to watch this page. I made major adjustments that may cause some upstir which I fear might come from less qualified people and might be politically/ethnically motivated. I'd be happy if you could look at the discussion to find out about the history of the article. And support me (if you see fit and it doesn't undermine my argument) if necessary.
Thanks a lot, Krankman 21:28, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- I'll try my best to support that article. since I don't have a backround of Sinhala language I won't be able to support as you wish. Any how I'll try my best... Thanks --Mayooresan 06:18, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
Thanks
Mayooresan, thanks for the edit to Soman's template. I've made a small change so that the suffix doesn't stand isolated. -- Sundar \talk \contribs 10:16, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for your corrections. I did more edits please check those edits also. --Mayooresan 10:39, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Kelaniya.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Kelaniya.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
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 Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:49, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

As a member of WikiProject Films, you are invited to take part in the project's first questionnaire. It is intended to gauge your participation and views on the project. At the conclusion of the questionnaire, the project's coordinators will use the gathered feedback to find new ways to improve the project and reach out to potential members. The results of the questionnaire will be published in next month's newsletter. If you know of any editors who have edited film articles in the past, please invite them to take part in the questionnaire. Please stop by and take a few minutes to answer the questions so that we can continue to improve our project. Happy editing!

Proposed deletion of Trincomalee campus
The article Trincomalee campus has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Nothing in this article that cannot be found in parent article, not independently notable.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}}
will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. - Jarry1250 [ In the UK? Sign the petition! ] 17:10, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
File source problem with File:Mayooresan1.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Mayooresan1.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Acather96 (talk) 07:10, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
