hello, i am thai native speaker, and please consider again before undo. i think in thai language's article, in that part is not suitable. for example thai(siamese) is tai langauges, english is germanic languages, and mandarin is chinese languages, so these article like english will not write about deutsch, dutch, swedish, dane, norway etc, and in mandarin's article also no wu, min, cantonese, gan, xiang etc. so in thai's article if write about laos, lanna, southern thai is also not suitable.--[[User:Joe Wetwitoo|Joe Wetwitoo]] ([[User talk:Joe Wetwitoo|talk]]) 18:40, 3 November 2016 (UTC) |

Speedy deletion nomination of B.N.Reddy National Award
A tag has been placed on B.N.Reddy National Award requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for organizations and companies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Articles for deletion nomination of B.N.Reddy National Award
I have nominated B.N.Reddy National Award, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/B.N.Reddy National Award. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.
Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. TheRealFennShysa (talk) 03:52, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

Grab some glory, and a barnstar
Hi, I'd like to invite you to participate in the Guild of Copy Editors July 2010 Backlog Elimination Drive. In May, about 30 editors helped remove the {{copyedit}} tag from 1175 articles. The backlog is still over 7500 articles, and extends back to the beginning of 2008! We really need your help to reduce it. Copyediting just a couple articles can qualify you for a barnstar. Serious copyeditors can win prestigious and exclusive rewards. See the event page for more information. And thanks for your consideration. monosock 03:20, 12 June 2010 (UTC)
Regarding references
Thanks for all your edits on Wikipedia. Just as a reminder, when adding info to Wikipedia articles, other Wikipedia articles are not reliable sources. (See Wikipedia:Reliable sources#Primary, secondary, and tertiary sources) If the other article cites sources for info you are copying from it, it is of course best to copy any relevant references (if there are any) into the new article as footnotes (preferably using <ref></ref> tags), so that readers can always tell which outside sources each part of the info originated from. Stating the source in the edit summary field doesn't really add to the content's long-term verifiability. Wikipedia:Citing sources has more info. Cheers, AtticusX (talk) 00:54, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
- Hello Dragon, it looks like signs of Wikiholism are devloping :). The things Atticusx mentioned are spot-on, and you'd best follow his suggestions. Just ask me if you have any questions regarding what is or is not a reliable source; I'm still lurking even though I'm on break. Happy editing, Airplaneman ✈ 04:19, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi, just wanted to ask you how a dubbed version is produced separately. --Commander (Ping Me) 01:40, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
- Hii,,
- Well.......Producing a dubbing version is nothing but....... buying the Copyrights in records(Sound Recording) and a performer`s right and they make infringing copies which relates here to a sound recording or any other recording embodying the recording &&& This copyright in sound recording shall not effect the separate copyright in any work in respect of which a substantial part of the film is made....and also the original owners(of the original copies) will have Re-sale share rights, which means they have right to share the Re-sale price of the original copies.

I am sorry I have been rude over you. I regret that. But i have just removed the exaggerations and added few sour facts.Fans have made this page into a mere fan-page.

Hey,
I really appreciate all the hard work that you guys are doing.
During Panjaa movie audio launch, I have taken a pic of Pawan Kalyan and I added it to his wiki page. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pawan_Entry_In_Panja_Audio_Launch_NA_011.jpg
Unfortunately that image was deleted by you. I request you to kindly help me understand why the pic was deleted and help me in fixing it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.112.231.105 (talk) 05:52, 30 January 2012 (UTC)

You have said that there is no necessary in adding first week collections because 6 months have gone from the movie release i have added them because makers have announced just first week collections.There is no official collections announcement from the second week.The gross and budget columns are empty in the article so i have added them from reliable sources please check it out,added the box office section and home media sections in that also i have added references from reliable sources and also there are some red links in the page.I strongly feel there is nothing wrong in my editing or reverting.And i don't want to involve in vandalism and also being blocked by admins.Please see the article references clearly and if you feel the sources are not reliable then say the reason i will accept your point of view.Please don't post messages to admin's that i am involving in vandalism.Thank you.Please post a message to my user talk page.Raghusri (Talk) Raghusri 10:21, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
- hi,,its gud that choose to make to consensus than to edit war. reagrding ur edits, the movie had been relased almost six months ago ,,, it would not be wise to add only first week gross, ALSO i`m not quite sure whether the sources is reliable, and i saw u removing redlinks, read WP:REDLINK before u do it. regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 10:30, 21 May 2012 (UTC).
Thanks For Response
As per your point of view you there is no necessary in adding first week collections in gross of the article because movie has completed 100 days and also passed away from theatres.I accept that but please don't delete the box office and home media sections and budget in the article and i am not understanding that there are red links in the page and no article exists with that names.You have posted me a guide that read WP:REDLINK and after delete redlinks.But i am unable to understand.If possible please say me about red links deletion in your general words.Thank you.Please post a message to my user talk page.Raghusri (Talk) Raghusri 11:00, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
- About the gross, Do not add till u discuss updated gross from a "reliable source" on article`s talk page. and the WP:REDLINK says A red link signifies a link to a page that does not exist but likely to be created soon. As in this context, the actors do not have wikipages, so the red links remind the contributors that their articles are yet to be created and encourage them in useful directions. if u still have any doubt place {{help me}} on ur talk page and ask ur question there. regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 11:23, 21 May 2012 (UTC).

Hi there, i created a catagory to filter telugu films by gener and made littel contribution this is link for it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Telugu_films_by_genre now i find List of Telugu-language films is good even thouh it is incomplete now the catagory is considered for delation and discussion ,latter i realized by looking into other atagory that the edits were done on the page of the film rather than adding nae of the film in the catagry if you know what i mean. all i want to know is sir ,is there any tool or converter that can help me doing work fast or quick because i created this catagory with 10 pages added to it thinking some other will add other ten and its goes on and on which dosnt happen .now i am about to sudmit an article/lists which is inspired by listofinternational rankings by country here i am making it for global people ,places, things, and animals any intresting fact which falls in this 4 catagories.plz suggest me how to get large data converted to wikipedia code . i will be waiting for your reply thanks for your time --Sriharanathrayala (talk) 16:13, 16 June 2012 (UTC)

Hello ..thanks for the message you have dropped on 30th May.
"Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view.

Yes, your point makes sense. Though in my opinion, Shreya Ghoshal is a leading singer - but then I checked other biographies e.g. Steve Jobs, Amartya Sen, Amitav Bachhan - I don't find any particular adjectives. thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Simplyanon (talk • contribs) 19:05, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
this is reply for your suggection
thank for your time,
let me put it short and simple ,if i want to create a catagory "telugu films by gener" you suggest me to create sub category like "Telugu action films" etc right .for this i have to go to each telgu film page to the catagory section and give it catagory. this is the procedure. am i right(please state in reply yes or no in reply) now my qustion is there any tools i can use to make this done in short time since the above procedure is time consuming

Regarding the aritcle: Dookudu
There is no way a telugu movie collected over Rs 1 billion even if it is advertised on a newspaper... newspapers are full of bull shit.. i thought wikipedia was genuine so edited it
- The "boxoffice content" has been supported by two news papers The Times of India and Zee News, which were considered to be Reliable Sources. why would u think a Telugu movie couldnot have a gross of ₹ 1 billion. And yeah, Wikipedia is genuine.

Indian Dubbing Artists
Hey, Do you know the Indian dubbing artist that gave the Hindi-Dubbing voice to Elijah Wood's role as Frodo Baggins from The Lord of the Rings film series?
Please let me know, when you found it. Thanks.
--BlueMario1016 (talk) 17:42, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
- i don`t know much about Hindi voice-actors, but i have Hindi versions of the The Fellowship of the Ring (2001), The Two Towers (2002) in my PC. And i`ll let u know if i found out. Okk ?! regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 11:28, 25 June 2012 (UTC).
Wow, That's very good to know! The Hindi Dubbing audio is on the VCD, No? Does the Hindi dubbed VCD covers look like this and this as well?
If you somehow find the info within the movie, or any database of the Indian dubbing industry where the Hindi-language dubbings are made, please let me know if you find the real correct Hindi dubbing artist for Elijah Wood's role as Frodo.
--BlueMario1016 (talk) 11:39, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
- No, i don`t hav VCDs, i just hav the .mkv format files. yeah, i`m trying my best, and i`ll let u know if succeed. regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 19:10, 25 June 2012 (UTC).
OK, Thank you. But any luck so far? I don't think the Hindi voice artists are credited at the end of the film, since just about all foreign films retain their original credits, if it is dubbed in Hindi. Not even Hindi-dubbed VCD releases of foreign films, don't give credit to the dubbing artists on the back cover. But however, Japanese dubbed releases of foreign films on home media, does contain the credits for the dubbing voice actors on the back of the cover. But to be honest, I'm not so sure if the Hindi dubbing artists are actually on the credits of the Hindi dub of TLOR, but if they are credited, then it'd be in Hindi text, and you'd need to translate it.
Even if it's not on the credits or anything, do you really think you can still find the credit of Frodo's Hindi voice? --BlueMario1016 (talk) 15:16, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
- i`ll make it simple for U. As far as India is considered, Dubbing department is the least credited than all the departments of the film. They don`t get the credit or recognition they deserve, though Voice-acting is one of the important and strenuous jobs. Not only Hindi industry, but also most of the other film industries of India are in the same condition. i`m think Hindi Voice-actors won`t be credited for the dubbed releases of the movies. i`m trying my best , but meanwhile u better try asking some other editors too. regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 19:56, 25 June 2012 (UTC).
Well, Can you at least try to recognize who's voicing that specific character, if you listen closely to their voices? If you notice the voice actor, you can guess it here for me.
And yes, I asked other Indian Wikipedians that are involved in the Dubbing Industry, but so far, they did not return with the info that I want to know. --BlueMario1016 (talk) 16:14, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
- yeah, thts the only the way tht i hav now !! The voices are familiar, because almost same set of Voice-actors do for the Hindi Dubbed English movies, for the Hindi dubbed infotainment and kids television channels. But its hard to find the name of the artist anyway. regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 20:47, 25 June 2012 (UTC).
Oh, and I left a message on the talk page for List of Indian Dubbing Artists a while back. Maybe you can ask a friend of yours, to help out as well? And maybe reply to the message I left on the talk page for the article?
Besides, I was thinking that Vivek Oberoi might have been the Hindi dubbing actor for Frodo, but I don't think it's him. I also know it can't be Nachiket Dighe either, but I know that he dubbed Elijah Wood's Role as Leo from the 1998 movie, Deep Impact, which was for the 2007 Hindi dubbed DVD release. But Nachiket was better known for being the Hindi dub-over artist for Rupert Grint. I am aware that it might have been a much different voice artist that voiced Frodo. Maybe if you show the Hindi dubbed film clips of Frodo, Maybe someone can figure out who it is?

SVSC - 05 July 2012
Hey, how are you?; I just wanted your opinion on an issue related to the article Seethamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu. The image that has been added to the article is a fan made poster. I was wondering about the possibility of taking a screenshot from the recently released teaser and uploading it with Template:Non-free film screenshot license. Do you think it would make sense to do that or would it be better to just wait for an official poster to release and eventually use that. Let me know what you think. Thanks - Krzna (talk) 22:22, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
- Hi, i`m fine! thanks and U?, abt the image of SVSC, the current one looks fine. If u think u can bring a better one, then pls do it. The image tagged as Non-free film screenshot license serves fair use and can be used on its wikipage. regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 00:15, 6 July 2012 (UTC).

Automated edits
Hi,
I note that recently you've been using the AutoEd tool to make mass-edits to articles which do nothing but alter the whitespace. Please do not do this: whitespace is a matter of personal opinion on articles, and automated edits which do nothing but change it have typically been frowned upon. If the only changes that would be made are cosmetic alterations to whitespace then please skip the edit in future. Thanks. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 11:36, 10 July 2012 (UTC)

Help!!
Hello, how are you?; I need some help understanding on how disambiguate pages work. I read the wiki article on that, but i still have few issues. I want to create a disambiguate page for the word "Baadshah", which can mean Padishah or Baadshah (1999 film) or Baadshah (2013 film) or say some other page. But now if i want to create this page, should i do it under Baadshah (disambiguation) or under Baadshah. Also a thing to note here is that the wiki page Baadshah redirects to the SRK's film, and there are still links to that page. I tried reading on this topic, but i am little confused. If you have created such pages before or if you have knowledge on this, then please let me know. Thanks for the help. Rock on!! - Krzna (talk) 03:31, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
- Hi, i`m fyn, thnx & how r u?, Its obvious u can create the page Baadshah (disambiguation) or if u want to create [[Baadshah]], which redirects to Baadshah (1999 film), the redirect has to be deleted. I have already nominated the redirect for deletion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2012 July 16. Lets see for the result of the discussion, it may be deleted or if not proceed with Baadshah (disambiguation). For future reference please see WP:REDIRECT#CRD. regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 10:04, 16 July 2012 (UTC).

jackie date of birth
Hi i have been noticing you change the age bar of jackie shroff.In reality Its still not clear when jackie shroff born.According to late mrs kakubhai juggu's mom his elder brother late hemanth was born on 1957.So that made wave around.Moreover when jackie shroff was in mangalore.i had personally one on one talk as myself being great fan of jackie discussed regarding his favourite times in bollywood...etc.When i asked about his age he says in reality he didnt knew when he was born because at that they were really poor living in chopadpatti.what about 1957?he says his brother was born on that date.So passport identification and income tax was patched as 1960 As he showed me income tax card holder.he says he doesnt care about his age much as he has manly look from his young career.
Oh well if you wanna change around despite the truth go ahead. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ancienthordes (talk • contribs) 09:09, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

Deleting false Info from my Wiki Page (but reappears?!)
Hi Dragon Booster, This is Richa, and I keep a close watch on the content that goes up on my wiki page but after having removing untrue content several times, it has come to my attention that someone repeatedly puts them back up. Especially when it comes to my filmography, which I would know best, as i AM the primary source! Please help me in understanding how I can edit my page by removing false content (ie 2 films which I wish to REMOVE from my filmography as I am not doing them),and changing the main display pic. I am not sure about why I would have to give any citation for films im NOT doing...so simply removing the content and saving changes should technically be enough. Thanks and appreciate your response.

- Yes I am Richa Gangopadhyay but more importantly, i need your help in fixing some of the info on my wiki page (like the so called 'reliable sources' which are not in fact reliable and present false info). Since I'm a bit new to this whole Wiki editing thing, could I please request you to contact me on official.richag@gmail.com so I can personally ask you to remove some things from my filmography? there are currently 2 films listed there which I am not a part of, and there have in fact been 'reliable sources' to support that I'm not actually doing those projects. but in order to delete content, i'm not sure what I must do. why would i need to discuss my own news on a 'talk page' when I would myself know whether it's true or not? It's just a bit odd. Regarding the change of picture, I am not really sure about the exact procedure, which is why I went through all the trouble to write to you for help in the first place! (if you have any doubts, I have no issues proving my identity. My twitter acct is official as well- @richyricha, and I respond frequently on that as well.) I just would like to know how/where I would upload a new picture file? Some step-by-step directions would greatly be appreciated. Thanks, Richa
Richa320 (talk) 15:49, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
- I think u hav figured the way to upload a image. anyway the process is : open any wikipedia page u see Upload file at the left of the page under the Toolbox, click the Upload file which redirects u to a page where u see Click here to Start the Upload Form clicking on the link would produce a form, fill the form, thats all ! And what are the films that 'Richa' is not a part of? If i find any sources that she dropped out of the films or something; i would delete them myself, or if u find a source, u can do it by stating the source in the Edit summary ! regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 17:35, 31 July 2012 (UTC).

are you the author of billa 2.

there are actors who really perform, act and portray the character. so please don't create biased articles.
did this movie really make 90 crores, where did u get that info? what is the source? did u verify, if that source is correct?....wikipedia is becoming a garbage can becos of you people. I could have edited this article. but I did not, as I don't want to get into this filthy act.

Changes to Pranab Mukherjee
I wasn't testing. Just wasn't aware of the "no Indic script" in the first lead line. :) Seems to be a weird consensus given the huge linguistic diversity of Indians. Anyway, don't have time to debate the consensus. Someone re-added the Bangla script back on the page in the first line. As per the consensus, where is the name in native script supposed to go? 173.248.251.161 (talk)
- ah..I must have been too judgmental, bcoz very few Ip edits would be constructive. So, I now officially and formally welcome U.... yeah, there is huge linguistic diversity , International Phonetic Alphabet system is supposed to be used instead of Indic scripts, which is more standardized representation and effective transcription. And i just removed the Bangla script from the page. regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 18:08, 6 August 2012 (UTC).
- Haha... thanks. I'm actually a bit of a retiree, who tries to pitch in small additions. Anyway, it goes back to my previous question: so, where, according to the consensus, should native script transcription and pronunciation be placed? Or, is there also a consensus that no native script should be used at all for India-related articles. IPA is not a substitute for, e.g., the Bangla script here. Right? In this case, it's particularly interesting because the IPA scheme used here does not represent how Mr Mukherjee's name would be pronounced in his native tongue either. (I am not sure what the IPA represents.) That's partly why I had put the transcription as well as the transliteration scheme to give an approximate pronunciation in his native tongue. :) 173.248.251.161 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 23:44, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
- Well, for the info, IPA phonetic symbols can be used to transcribe any one language in the world, which can also clearly distinguish different dialects of a particular word. Also IPA serves as an effective and standardized transcription that anyone from any nativity, who knows the notation can easily pronounce the word of any language. So, the Indic scripts won`t be necessary in the articles. Do u know the notation well? u claim that IPA does not represent the exact pronunciation of Mukherjee's name, then u free to correct it..if u r good enough. regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 22:06, 10 August 2012 (UTC).

clarity better for newbies
I just effectively reversed your not-so-recent edit (you used bot AutoEd) of an article link that replaced "wikiquote" with "q". I like to keep things comfortable for newbie editors, and "wikiquote" is easier to understand than "q". Where inconsistencies abound, fixing is appropriate because sloppiness gives a bad signal for subsequent editing, and fixing should favor clarity of commands (e.g., "Disambiguation" rather than "dab" unless avoiding redirection requires otherwise). This is my opinion; I don't know how much other editors agree with it. Nick Levinson (talk) 16:57, 7 August 2012 (UTC) (Italicized: 17:03, 7 August 2012 (UTC))
- Hey; Thats what the AutoEd does. It Cleans up and simplifies. My View:: fixing may not always favor clarity of commands, the execution or the outcome is important. Anyway it is a minor edit so, doesnot make any a big difference if reverted the edit. Btw, can u be more specific abt which article u r talking abt? regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 22:25, 10 August 2012 (UTC).

Some interesting observations of Ramanujam - Hardy Number " 1729 ".
The number 1729 is called the Ramanujam - Hardy Number. The unique characteristic of this number is that it is the SMALLEST number which can be expressed as the sum of the CUBES of two different numbers (positive integers) in two ways, namely 12 and 1, as well as 10 and 9. [Though the number 2 is also the sum of the cubes of the digit 1 taken twice, the digits are identical (one and the same)]. 1729 can also be expressed as the sum of the SQUARES of three different numbers SETS : These are [39, 12, & 8]; [37, 18, & 6]; [33, 24, & 8]; and [30, 27, & 10]; It can also be expressed as the sum of the SQUARES of four different numbers SETS also. These are : [35, 20, 10, & 2]; [32, 20, 17, & 4]; [32, 20, 16, & 7]; [30, 27, 8, & 6]; [28, 24, 15, &12]; [27, 24, 18, & 10]; and [26, 22, 20, &13] --68.193.2.168 (talk) 19:52, 7 August 2012 (UTC). [Text partly corrected to remove ambiguity].68.193.2.168 (talk) 15:08, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
- Thnx for sharing the info, for the record i know the Ramunujan-Hardy number & i really like it. I guess the u might have dropped this message in affect of "My Mathematical Stuff" on my userpage. I am working on the number as Ramanujan worked on . Do u feel Math interesting? bcoz i would really appreciate if u come with any properties (other than the ones i specified on my userpage) of the regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 22:46, 10 August 2012 (UTC).

Cinema Of Andhra Pradesh
Could you please add this article to your watch list ?
User:Vensatry and User:Secret of success have been involved in constantly writing this article in a biased way favoring Tamil cinema and trying to hide Telugu cinema's achievements.
The user User:Vensatry has removed Indian cinema link from the See also section where it clearly states that Telugu cinema is second largest; in an effort to show that Tamil cinema is India's second largest. They both managed to block User:pavn123 because he persisted on making corrections which state Telugu film industry to be second largest in the country.
Also they have been deleting User:Nandhakishore's valid editing with legitamate citations.

Your request for rollback
Hi DRAGON BOOSTER. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
- Use common sense.
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Malinaccier (talk) 22:41, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
I also gave you reviewer like you requested originally:
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges. A full list of articles that have pending changes protection turned on will be at Special:StablePages.
Being granted reviewer rights neither grants you status nor changes how you can edit articles. If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

- Hi.. Dravadianhero. When I said discuss, I meant on the talk page of the subject article. When u open a discussion abt the page move, so tht everyone would get a chance to participate and share their view. Anyways I moved back the page as it were. Pls make sure u open a discussion and wait for people to respond nxt time. Happy editin! regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 21:00, 3 May 2013 (UTC).
- Reading your message, I must admit, it was a pretty bold move. -- Dravidian Hero 21:05, 3 May 2013 (UTC)
- Hey,,, Dravadianhero, Why did u "redirect" instead of moving in the first place??? When i first tried to revert ur edit, I tried to move the page. But I couldn`t as it was in the Blacklist. So, I had to revert ur redirects. But when agreeing with U on WP:COMMONNAME, I reverted to ur version, then there were just two redirects redirecting to each page without the actual article. So, I had to revert the other page also. Finally, two article pages and two talk pages. If u still want the page renamed. U can request for the page move at Wikipedia:Requested moves. regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 06:12, 17 May 2013 (UTC).

I see that you reverted a change made by an IP user on this page regarding the proposed Bailout film. That page has been redirected per WP:CRYSTAL. The movie that the IP user inserted "Epic" is in fact a real film. Just wondering your logic --Mblumber (talk) 21:40, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
- Update- Neither is correct. I'm cleaning it up. Nevermind.--Mblumber (talk) 21:43, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
- Hi.. Mblumber, Infact I noticed the Bailout film redirected to "Michael Winterbottom". But the edit made by Ip that he is the part of the cast of Epic is clearly a false claim. So, I just reverted to last "accepted revision". regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 06:00, 17 May 2013 (UTC).

I know about those things. Please don't accuse me, because you didn't understood my point of view. Do as your wish, i am not going to revert your edits again and i don't want to engage in edit war due to i know how to behave with other users. Please leave the matter here and don't send messages to me regarding this conflict. Regards, Raghusri (talk) 10:13, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
- Raghu, Its' not abt the Point of view, but abt the guidelines and I was just following them. I`m sorry, if U think my message offended U. The last thing on my mind is to 'edit war' .... with U. All editors try to improve the articles. When some one takes some time and makes series of edits, try to assume good faith and give a chance. If u don't agree with them, leave a message, and simple reversion of all the edits is obviously not way, and worse to that "Re-add" one or two edits of his/hers after the reversion. Have a nice day. Thnx for the reply. regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 11:25, 6 June 2013 (UTC).

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Aapadbandhavudu, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Jandhyala (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Disambiguation link notification for July 15
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Saagar (1985 film), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Shailendra Singh (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Yo
Hey Dragon Booster,
It's been a while! How are you doing? I ran into your name while poking around my userspace today and just never realized how long it has been since we last chatted. It looks like you started being active around here right as I started being inactive, so I simply never noticed that you were still around. I had assumed that all of my adoptees had dropped off. It's amazing to see that you've stuck with it; it's definitely made my week.
Cheers, Airplaneman ✈ 14:55, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
- Hi... Airplaneman! How are you? It's nice to hear from you. I`ve been meaning to say 'Hey' for so long. Your welcome and guidance made me stick to Wikipedia, for this long. I have learnt so much from you. Apart from this month I`ve been an active contributor, but recently I`ve been busy in my real life. Anyways, I have never thanked you for what you have done. Thank You for all your kindness and Friendship. Regards, DRAGON BOOSTER ★ 11:47, 25 August 2015 (UTC).

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 14:15, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

thai langauge
hello, i am thai native speaker, and please consider again before undo. i think in thai language's article, in that part is not suitable. for example thai(siamese) is tai langauges, english is germanic languages, and mandarin is chinese languages, so these article like english will not write about deutsch, dutch, swedish, dane, norway etc, and in mandarin's article also no wu, min, cantonese, gan, xiang etc. so in thai's article if write about laos, lanna, southern thai is also not suitable.--Joe Wetwitoo (talk) 18:40, 3 November 2016 (UTC)
