Orphaned non-free image (Image:Kannada on ubuntu.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Kannada on ubuntu.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images 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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 21:11, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Request for peer review.

HP Nadigrige namaskaragalu, i am Tejaswi, a native of Uttarakannada. the article Namadhari naik belonging to Karnataka wikigroup, is edited by me and deals with the community history of the Namadharis/Halepaiks of Uttara Kannada. In creating this article i have referred to most of Kannada literature sources, some of which are really rare [ex; Bombay gazetteer in Karnataka: Dharwad,Belgaum,Bijapur and Kannara districts, Venkataramgo Katti; Kaada toreya jaadu: Autobiography of Kadidal Shamanna; Kagodu ondu nenapu, C.B.Chandrashekhar;The Nayakas of Ikkeri, K.D.Swaminathan;,Bimba-Pratibimba, Dr.L.R.Hegde;D.L.N Avara Ayda Lekhana, Kamala Hampana]. These form a necessary part of the glorious literary tradition of Kannada language and need to be seconded. hence i request you to kindly review the page.

offlate, i have been facing unilateral notices on the material without a proper knowledgable discussion on the topic. the member issuing notices seems to lack relevent knowledge in the subject and is defintely biased. but the warnings and unwarranted editing may lead to the page loosing out on the precious information derived from above mentioned sources. So i request neutral observers like you to review it and opinionate. thankyou

An Important Issue

Hello Mr. HPN, I have seen your name in list of bureaucrats of Sa.wikipedia, so I am writing this. Please see the case of my candidature of adminship at sanskrit wiki here [[2]]. It was closed based merely on inactivity (which also is a false reason). Nobody on sanskrit wiki could understand any genuine reason for keeping this candidate (i.e. me) from becoming admin there, you can see what was Mayur's(an admin) comment on that refusal("That was sad..."), also you can see what was comments by others, who all were in favour of my adminship. It is clearcut case of misuse of power of discretion by the bureaucrat MikeLynch. Since the single reason of inactiveness of mine is not at all a reason, because you can check that no single admin is active from last 3 to 4 months, not a single edit, let aside any discussion. And at the same time I have been helping Sanskrit wiki users in lingustic as well as technical sense continuously (before as well as after denial of my adminship request). Please tell your opinion on this case. You can see that the same MikeLynch has 'promoted' some other persons to admin with votes far less than sufficient. This is an important matter because I had some good plans for sa.wiki and have been working for uplift of the same from the time when no one used to come on that wiki. Currently there is no single admin active who knows sanskrit fluently, so nobody can properly serve a request which is written in sanskrit, there have been many cases when the sanskrit-knower users requested something in sanskrit and were served in some other way, i.e. request wrongly understood(in fact there is no admin active at all except for MikeLynch himself). I hope you would be able to justifiably decide in the case. Thanks. -Hemant wikikosh (talk) 07:34, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
