Happy New Year

All the best in the new year. -- Samir धर्म 20:53, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Hmm

Well, both Netaji and Mother Teressa are pretty tough, because they are controversial, especially Netaji. I often do titbits on Netaji. But both the articles undergo pretty frequent edit-wars. Anyway, we can move.--Dwaipayan (talk) 14:23, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Lage Raho...FAC

Hmm...! I am afraid it's a bit premarure. "Production" needs more stuffs. We talked about it in the talk page. As the nominator, please communicate with Classicfilms (talk · contribs) (the main author) and Nobleeagle (talk · contribs). Also please post notification in talk page of Wikipedia:WikiProject Indian cinema and update Wikipedia:Notice board for India-related topics. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 07:54, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

New Year wishes

Hi! Thanks for the wishes. Wish you the same (belated). Happy editing! --Victor 17:33, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Prasenjit Chatterjee

The Bengali scipt in the Prasenjit Chatterjee article should read Proshenjit Chottopadhyay, not Prosenjit Chatterjee. --WoodElf 07:00, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Koch dynasty

According to J N Sarkar, the first major Koch king was Biswa Singha who established the Koch kingdom, and not Maharaja Chandan, as you have edited in Koch dynasty. According to him, the first known Koch ruler is Haria Mandal, the father of Chandan. Also, the reign of Biswa Singha is given as (1515-1540), and not (1522-1554) as you write in Biswa Singha. Could you please confirm your sources?

I am using the chapter written by J N Sarkar in The Comprehensive History of Assam, Vol II, published by Publication Board, Assam.

Hi!

Hey Amartya, man what about starting a new wikiproject regarding Indian states. We can do it together. One more thing we two are quite young thats why our views may also be similar. Sushant gupta 08:30, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Re:Wikiproject

Hey Amartya, not all states, only few states have. The link you gave me is different. Actually I wanna make Himachal Pradesh related topics a feature for which I want to make a wikiproject on that. Well yes Wikiproject on West bengal already exist. I wish we could have done it together. But then also we can do a lot together. And one more thing which I am wishing to do, Uhhh... I think I should keep it a secret. Soon all Wikipedians will came to know about that on July 29th 2007 Thanks Sushant gupta 12:12, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject India Newsletter: Volume II, Issue 1 - January 2007

Project News
  • Project tagging:After a brief edit war over the addition of {{WP India}} to ancient archaeological sites now located in Pakistan, a "pre" parameter was introduced to remove the ROI flag from the template for pre-1947 articles, following discussion. After another large discussion on ANI alleging that the automated tagging by Ganeshbot and LostBot was "nationalistic", Ganeshbot was briefly blocked. Currently, the bots are again in action.
  • Swastika on Hinduism templates:Recently, an extremely large and at times emotional debate broke out regarding the use of the swastika on Hinduism templates, given its association with Nazism. As a result, {{Hindu Links}} now contains an educational message about the use of the swastika, as discussion on a more permanent resolution continues.

Hi!!!

Hey Amartaya, I won't be much active here on WP from 26th January to February 25th due to my final examinations. I will start up with the project after Feb. Thanks Sushant gupta 10:36, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Are you online

Hi Amartaya, are you online. Well I am starting up with the project rightnow. I'll complete as much as I would be able to. Lets us do one thing, I'll be creating a wikiproject on himachal and you too choose any of the topic which would be convinient and then we both can start up. Well we can keep updating each other after regular intervals. We can create something featured. Thanks Sushant gupta 10:04, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

I have created the wikiproject on Himachal Pradesh,

Take a look at this- Wikipedia:WikiProject Himachal Pradesh. Well you can create a wikiproject on Indian military or Indian wildlife or protected areas in India as you mentioned earlier. I'll be also participating with you. Sushant gupta 10:19, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Wow, that's quite fast

Hey Amartaya, I am highly impressed by you man, Wildlife of West Bengal, that seems to be something great. Well it matches a lot with Wildlife of himachal what I started, thats a plus point. Great job, Sushant gupta 10:39, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Nice job

Hey, nice job on wildlife. Thanks for the project. You should contact Pradiptaray (talk · contribs), if you have not already. He is a wildlife enthusiast, and created some nice articles and templates. Also you can contact Shyamal (talk · contribs) and Kalyanvarma (talk · contribs). There may be lots of other users, too. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 12:05, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Wikiproject PA of India

Hi, I've set up the guidelines, formatting, goals, etc of the project. Feel free to make edits of your choice before we more or less freeze the front page. ray 23:50, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

District templates

I have been working on the cities and towns for some time. I started with transfers of material from Ganeshbot and then got involved. Recently, I have put in a district template for all towns in West Bengal. Maybe, I have missed few here and there. Please have a look, particularly for North Bengal towns. Feel free to make corrections, as you deem fit. Regards -- P.K.Niyogi 03:22, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Help Wikipedia: WikiProject Protected areas of India

I would be glad if u help us in Wikipedia: WikiProject Protected areas of India. None of us are much experienced, we need some experienced persons like u. Kindly review the Project and do some inclusion or correction if u feel, see its talk page for more. Specially with the templates. Thanks in advance. Amartyabag (Talk) 11:25, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the message. I will surely try to contribute and be an active participant to these pages. Let us resolve to make these pages really beautiful. --Bhadani 16:50, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

Indian-protected-area-stub

Hi - it has come to our notice that you have recently created a new stub type. As it clearly states at WP:STUB, at the top of most stub categories, on the template page for new Wikiprojects and in many other places on Wikipedia, new stub types should be proposed prior to creation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, in order to check whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies, and whether better use could be made of a WikiProject-specific talk page template.

In the case of your new stub type, it was not named according to stub naming guidelines, and it may not reach the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type. Your new stub type is currently listed at WP:WSS/D - please feel free to make any comments there as to its creation.

BTW, I have moved the template to the stub-standard naming of {{India-protected-area-stub}}, and added proper parent categories to the category. Grutness...wha? 01:05, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

PS - neither of the articles which were tagged with this template were stubs! Grutness...wha? 01:27, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Re: reproposing the stub type, no, but it would be useful to explain the number of likely stubs under the appropriate heading at WP:WSS/D. If it's clear that it will be a well-used stub, it will almost certainly be adopted officially from there. In future, though, if you want to create any new stub types, please propose them first! Grutness...wha? 09:20, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

PA userbox image

I understand why you removed the image I showed on the PA userbox. That was just personalization for me, not intended for all PA boxes.
How's this for a universal image: If you like it drop it in the box and post for all.
FYI: My main interest is my pages Manjampatti, Palani Hills National Park and other pages in the Palni Hills, as you can see from my contributions.
One page that's obviously missing on Wiki is Chinnar Wildlife Sanctuary. I don't have time to do a good job on it, but if someone else starts, I can probably add some.
I hope to go back to Tamil Nadu next fall and am looking for a good 3 month volunteer opportunity in the Palni Hills.
Regards, Marcus Sherman Marcus334 05:04, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
P.S. Is it acceptable to solicit a knowlegable person, like a sanctuary director whom you don't know, to contribute to a wiki page? I have Indira Gandhi National Park in mind. MS

PA Userbox Image, 2nd Draft

Good Image?
Continuing about the acceptability of requesting help from knowledgable person outside Wiki:
I was thinking of initiating Knowledge capture from expert person outside Wiki with good knowlege of published sources on the subject
and ability to share good local photos, not originial unpublished research. is that OK?
Neo-Wikipedian, Marcus334 20:44, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Amartya,

Just for your kind information Rahul Roy is Punjabi, not Bengali. That is the reason I am taking a liberty to remove the Bengali translation of his name.

Image

Replaced Image:Kangchenjunga.JPG. Realistic forest habitat: can't see tiger face clearly. Someone else pitch in here.--Marcus 06:20, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi!

Hi! Cooch Behar is now a selected article in Portal:West Bengal. Please check out the new look portal. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 12:25, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Re:Protected Areas project

Hi Amartyabag, I am not really a tech savvy person so cant help with the addition of the project into the India template. Two people who can help are User:Ganeshk and User:Ambuj.Saxena. Try asking them, else you could ask at the talk page of Wikipedia:WikiProject Council — Lost(talk) 16:42, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

I have added the Himachal Pradesh and Protected areas of India projects to the WP:INDIA template. The tags are himachal=yes and protected-areas=yes. Please update others. Regards, Ganeshk (talk) 22:24, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
I have added the banner as a seperate box similar to WP:INCINE. See Talk:Protected areas of India. Regards, Ganeshk (talk) 19:19, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

West Bengal Portal

Portal:West Bengal has been vastly improved by riana_dzasta and S.D. ¿п?, with automated selection of articles. It is now a Featured portal candidate. Please have a look. Regards -- P.K.Niyogi 02:32, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

Kaziranga

I will copyedit the article from start to finish, and also add a section on environment news. I am kind of tied up till the evening - will work on it at night, after that I am once again going on a short break from wikipedia. ray 14:42, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Done. Now it appears. See the edit history, and you may guess why that problem was happening! A "/" was missing. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 15:03, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
BTW, in Pradipta's talk page, I saw you told,"final touch needed". What are you planning? FAC? or something else like PR? I am asking this because the article is not yet FAC-worthy. It does need copyediting, and also probably a peer review. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 15:09, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
Please see the article Kaziranga National Park. See the Fauna part. The reptiles and amphibian part do not show up after editing. pls. help immediately. Amartyabag TALK2ME 14:32, 24 February 2007 (UTC) (Moved from talk page.) 16:04, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
I can see it. You may have to clear your cache. Happy editing! S.D. ¿п? § 16:04, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
