Navi Radjou
Attempting to revert vandalism at Navi Radjou, you have rolled back the page by 16 months to January 2012. In doing so, you have also reverted a number of perfectly valid edits. In view of the large number of edits you were attempting to revert, I can understand why you did it this way, but if you chose this method, particularly after such a long intervening period, it is up to you to ensure that the subsequent valid edits are retained, which you have failed to do. In particular, these include the Authority control template and amendments to the Persondata and categories. Can you please ensure these are corrected. Skinsmoke (talk) 12:40, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
- I am a bit overwhelmed now but I will ensure it within tomorrow. Thanks for notifying. Solomon7968 (talk) 12:45, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
- I know the problem. Not desperately urgent, but it does need doing. Thanks. Skinsmoke (talk) 12:59, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
Hi! I have included few colleges in the list. Does the list include the institutions established by zamindars during the British era? If yes than few more might be included. Thanks. --Zayeem (talk) 09:42, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
- The article is vast in its scope. I am here trying to list the institutions which are at present universites but founded in the British era by the British Raj. Now you can list the Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology which is a university but probably the three you added are colleges. Solomon7968 (talk) 10:00, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
See this List of Colonial Colleges. To make the article good we have to add indviudual reference for each entry. Solomon7968 (talk) 10:04, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
- The colleges are actually degree-granting which is why I added them, feel free to remove them if inappropriate. BUET was established by a Zamindar (if I'm not wrong) during the British raj, so was Jagannath University. I thought the page is only about the institutions established by the British Indian government, so didn't add them. There is another one which might be up for inclusion, Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University. Thanks. --Zayeem (talk) 12:25, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
- Actually I do not know of Bangladesh and Pakistan but you are right that it lists institutions established by the British Indian government. Now the list in itself is useless if there are no sources that is reference assigned to each entry. You can see the List of colonial universities in Latin America. It has reference for each entry. Now I am currently busy in some other areas. You can help by adding reference that Dhaka University was started in 1920. Solomon7968 (talk) 12:31, 25 May 2013 (UTC)

Incomplete DYK nomination
Hello! Your submission of Template:Did you know nominations/Harinath De at the Did You Know nominations page is not complete; see step 3 of the nomination procedure. If you do not want to continue with the nomination, tag the nomination page with {{db-g7}}, or ask a DYK admin. Thank you. DYKHousekeepingBot (talk) 15:25, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
- Hey User:Dennis Brown, Please do the courtesy of tagging the nomination page with {{db-g7}}. Thank you. Solomon7968 (talk) 15:33, 26 May 2013 (UTC)

- @User:Dennis Brown What type of joke? You are an admin, You could have directly deleted that instead of publicly stating "Per request of blocked editor on their talk page". Thank you Solomon7968 (talk) 15:57, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
- It isn't a joke, I did exactly as you asked. The author of the article (you) didn't actually blank the page, so I simply provided a link back to the authority in which I was claiming you wanted to. I don't delete articles that I am tagging unless they are clearly vandalism or an attack page. The goal is to always have two sets of eyes on every deletion. I tag articles all the time and let other admin delete them. Just because I have the tools to delete an article doesn't mean I should use them in every instance.

Eugene Chelyshev
On 4 June 1891 Vivekananda first met Ajit Singh of Khetri, that has been posted at today's DYK (see now) (ot archived copy). Anyway, about Chelyshev, I am interested to go forward with the Vivekananda hook in Chelyshev article. But there are two obstacles 1) a part of it needs to be copyedited. 2) the article does not have infor/source on Vivekananda. I am struggling with slow internet. We have only 36 hours or so in hand. The unsourced/unnecessary paragraphs may be removed as you are doing and it can be taken to DYK after doing at least some work in "as it is" condition. If DYK reviewer asks to make changes, that can be done later. That's all I can think at this moment. --Tito Dutta (talk • contributions • email) 08:18, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
- Part of the problem is I am struggling to find which of the claims in this article are really relevant. My source was the Bengali book "Monishider Chokhe Vivekananda". I really did not expected the article has a Russian article. Good I will try to copy edit the article. Solomon7968 (talk) 08:23, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
- Arey! Bangali! She jak.. oi boi ta amar kache nei (anyway, I do not have that book), I too did not expect this person having so much notability in Russia. I am morally feeling uneasy to put the Vivekananda point in the DYK hook! But, have to... I have been preparing another article User:Titodutta/Swami Vivekananda statue (Golpark, Kolkata). Do not need any help at this moment.. Do you have any free image of the statue? This Gopark is jus 4 km from my residence, but, I am very lazy and another point is I do not have a good digital camera at this moment. Feel free to suggest hook for the statue article! --Tito Dutta (talk • contributions • email) 08:33, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
- Hmm, I am from Chandanagar. But Re: It seems I have lost the book "Monishider Chokhe Vivekananda" but if I remember right the book has only two "Monishi" entries who do not have Wiki article. The name was probably a Chinese, but not sure though. Solomon7968 (talk) 08:44, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
- Yes most probably Huang Xin Chuan, professor of History of Beijing University, wrote a book "The Modern India Philosopher Vivekananda: A Study". That can be started after this. This E. P. Chelisev, Ex-Director of the Institute of. Oriental Studies of Russian Academy of Sciences was an follower of Vivekananda inspite of the official policy of Atheism of the government of USSR? needs to be mentioned and sourced in the article. --Tito Dutta (talk • contributions • email) 08:54, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
- My statement is a bit "Original Research by Synthesis". It is true that you will never get a citation for this. But it is universally known that the official policy of the government of USSR in religion was Atheism because of Marxist interpretation of Evolution. But this is a wll supported hook Do you know Eugene Chelyshev was the first Russian winner of Shaitya Academy Award?. Solomon7968 (talk) 08:59, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
- That sounds good! You can go ahead and nominate when you'll think it is ready (we have 36 hoursor so) in hand. Don't worry about QPQ, I'll add one later. Remove the claeup template before nominating. --Tito Dutta (talk • contributions • email) 10:00, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

- The vivekananda template in Chelyshev seems partisan. He can be remembered for 1)Indologist 2)Russian Academician 3)Sahitya Academy fellowship winner. The "Influenced" term seems correct. Solomon7968 17:08, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

Your comment
"The thing which most frustrates me is lack of reliable sources on politics in India specifically the "Votebank politics"." - Very, very true. Amidst all the prevalent biases, against specific creeds and sects, on Wikipedia, it really is very frustrating. Censorship, bowdlerization and outright distortion of historical facts from history books and news-reports are so ubiquitous that it's really hard to find a decently neutral academic source these days about topics ranging from the ancient civilization of India to the modern developments. It's an open secret that the rulers of India right since the British-occupation and, occasionally, foreign "allies" of India have exploited the pervasive religious divide in Indian society. What strikes me as most odd is, why is then only one hapless portion of the country is more vilified than the other? Bigots from all sides contributed to this divide equally zealously and thus are equally culpable, then why only one damn portion of the populace is at loss in country which guards egalitarian ethics in the constitution? Why are we never able to set the facts straight ever? Everything is so cleverly convoluted and obfuscated that nobody can be sure about anything. Despondent outcries of good citizens are nonchalantly cast aside like they are squeaks of a vermin. It seems no matter what the government does it's just tantamount to spinning own wheels. Shame on India's politics and god damned media and its self-censorship! God help the country where most educated people hold the view that connivance, passivity and integrity are the same thing. Where most believe giving equal validity to every claim, without due regard to its credibility, is neutrality. Mr T(Talk?) (New thread?) 08:05, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

Regarding External Link
Hello,
My name is Kiran Chandrashekhar. I am sorry, I have to disagree. The link is indeed to my website. But that should not be the reason for taking it out.
The reason, I posted that link is because, my website is all about Vedic Mathematics and Mathematical Shortcuts. I thought wiki users would find it useful with the articles which are relevant to Vedic Maths — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kirancshet (talk • contribs) 16:33, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
- Hello Kiran Chandrashekhar, since you are new here I will like to introduce some core wikipedia policies to you. In the welcome message there are some quick handy links which are very helpful to a newbie user. I reverted it because wikipedia policies maintain neutral point of view, and discourages editors to edit a page with which they may have a conflict of interest. That is why I reverted it.

But since you have made this article you may be interested in http://www-history.mcs.st-and.ac.uk/Societies/ParisNames.html A similar thing can be tried for Kolkata or any other Indian city. The Legend of Zorro 01:48, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
- You don't need to review. I have multiple articles at DYK now. Do not want to add one more in queue. --Tito☸Dutta 01:59, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

Subbayya Sivasankaranarayana Pillai
Regarding your last revert of me at Subbayya Sivasankaranarayana Pillai, please read WP:BURDEN. I don't mind leaving it alone for a while but since you say that you are on a wikibreak until October, you'll have to excuse me if I'm not entirely sure that it is going to be fixed.
Do we have to attribute when we translate from other Wikis? Also, I'm sure that it would be wise to check the sources and not just blindly accept them. - Sitush (talk) 09:14, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
- Why don't you wait until tommorow (not until october) and see if I can fix the article or not or are you afraid that I will be adding nationalist (or any other related stuff) to the article. The Legend of Zorro 14:18, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
I have unstubbed the article and removed the refimprove tags since I think now the "this article has been unsourced for years" problem has been solved. And for your second question about attribution I think it is unnecessary because now everything is referenced to online English language references. Only one of the reference (ref 4 Raghavan Narasimhan) is not online. I added it as per the German wiki. I do not have access to it but I am taking it in good faith. The Legend of Zorro 06:25, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for resolving this. I've taken the liberty of completing your AfD closure for Shyamaprasad Mukherjee -- adding the appropriate "bottom" tag to the AfD discussion, taking the tag off the article, and placing the appropriate tag on the article's talk page. -- 203.171.197.18 (talk) 01:01, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks IP. I have placed a welcome template on your talk page. You can consider making an account also. Either way happy editing. The Legend of Zorro 14:18, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Please go to the article's talk page to discuss your proposed changes. I don't see any rationale for the extreme removal. And I'm usually in favor of massive cuts to most articles. Qwyrxian (talk) 12:41, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
- I am kindly asking you one more time--stop reverting and start discussing on talk. You are factually wrong when you say there is a BLP violation. As long as the linked articles verifies that 1) the person is a scientist and 2) is/was Indian, WP:BLP, WP:NLIST, and WP:V are satisfied. If there are specific entries that you believe are not verified, please remove only those entries. Furthermore, I find the new layout to be far worse than the simple list, and not conforming with our standard layout for list articles of this type. If you don't self-revert, I will have to re-revert you, and consider any further attempts at massive removal from the article to be edit warring. Qwyrxian (talk) 14:02, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
- I opened a new thread in Talk:List of Indian scientists before your second message. Please respond there. Thanks. The Legend of Zorro 15:58, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
AfD reverts
Please stop reverting my comments on the AfD. Thanks. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 08:32, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
- Your comments are unhelpful. You repeatedly assert non notability never bothering to explain why do you think it is non notable. I have previously asked you to explain but you constantly refer to the WP:SAL page. This repeated branding of non notability is insulting. SL7968 08:41, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
- And again, please stop with your reverts. Thanks. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 18:36, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
- No sorry, you made that personal attack in clear bad faith. I will again revert you if you reinstate that. SL7968 18:42, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
- And again, please stop with your reverts. Thanks. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 18:36, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
Speedy deletion declined: Surendranath Banerjea
Hello Solomon7968. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Surendranath Banerjea, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: I am not happy to make this move: the only non-deadlink reference, Indian Post, has "Banerjee", and it gets far more Ghits - 340,000 to 52,000. Start a talk page discussion or WP:RM at Talk:Surendranath Banerjee. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 18:15, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for the note, will open a WP:RM. SL7968 12:06, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
