Hi, please leave comments at the end, in a new section for a new topic. I'll reply on your talk page, unless it is obvious the reply is expected at a different place (an article's discussion page, for instance.)
Am retaining the intervening part due to sentimental (first automated comments) and factual (WikiProject India) value.
Ye Olde greetings

Speedy deletion nomination of Talent Resource Development Wing
[edit]
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Talent Resource Development Wing 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 a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, 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.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Mlpearc powwow 17:38, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

Need comments on this RFC - [| discussion]
[edit]Hi, Need your views and comments. One should also go through ['no consensus' discussion]. ..असक्तः सततं कार्य कर्म समाचर | असक्तः हि आचरन् कर्म.. Humour Thisthat2011 17:40, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
- Hi, Requesting information from your side on the same discussion ([after this edit]). Apparently people still do not understand that Bharat is another English name of the country. ..असक्तः सततं कार्य कर्म समाचर | असक्तः हि आचरन् कर्म.. Humour Thisthat2011 08:24, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
- I gave my views, again and all in one place. You seem to have misunderstood my earlier comments and taken them as being in full agreement with your view. It wasn't meant to be so.VishalB (talk) 09:47, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
- I believe that on the page, the understanding is that Bharat is not an English name at all, much less an English name for India(perhaps local dictionary for local audience was the cause, as I did not read the word Bharat in some dictionaries). I have checked all the archives and in every archive, whenever someone says that and gives some proof then he is told that Bharat is 'not and English name' of the country. This has been going on since a long time I think, in absence of Knowledgable people from India giving information on the topic. I am just glad that people atleast understand that Bharat is an English name, and notability is the main concern here. When I first asked this question on the topic, I was told that it is no more than 'family myth' and 'unsubstantiated nonsense'. This is the state of mentality of people editing Wikipedia. It is strange that people who are not familiar with Indian scene are giving random judgments about India on Wikipedia.(according to me)
- Anyways, I have given more sources, from Govt websites etc. I think it should come to your notice also since you said that the constitution is the only information you have about Bharat as an English name, which is not good enough for notability, etc.
- Anyways, whatever happens, happens for good. ..असक्तः सततं कार्य कर्म समाचर | असक्तः हि आचरन् कर्म.. Humour Thisthat2011 11:47, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

About origin of word Hinduism
[edit]Hi,
In the article on Hinduism, the Etymology section immediately at the introduction talks about origin of Hinduism. The references given, from books by left-wing historians like Romila Thapar etc., are to me 'obvious' attempts at confusing anyone who is curious about Hinduism and gets on to google -> Wikipedia or Wikipedia->Hinduism etc.
I have tried to get to the origin, from here onwards origin sources though not got a lot of responses. I could locate the word Hindu after some days of searches in a Sanskrit dictionary too, but unable to get the definition translated on Wikipedia; though as I mentioned earlier, there are many definitions and no 'best' or 'worst' ones. So I would like you to throw some light on that please (when comfortable that is). I know I can not push a lot everyday, but I think this is important. ..असक्तः सततं कार्य कर्म समाचर | असक्तः हि आचरन् कर्म.. Humour Thisthat2011 20:56, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
- I went through the discussion. It'll require deep knowledge of Sanskrit to derive useful information from the given sources. I know just a few words. It would also have to be proven that these sources are older than the presently mentioned origin of the word, and have not been modified in the intervening period. That will require extensive research by a Sanskrit scholar. I don't know if Romila Thapar is correct or not, but she has spent her life doing research and writing books. She writes what she believes is true. The only way to counter her points is to cite other authors who are as authoritative. To make lasting edits on Wikipedia, the citation standards have to be followed to stand up to scrutiny by all editors. You perhaps felt I would be able to contribute to the matter because I've mentioned Hinduism as an early interest on my userpage. Let me clarify that my interests are quite amateur, and lean more towards spiritual traditions like meditation, to which Hinduism has made important contributions (along with many others like Taoism, Vajrayana, Zen, and Sufism). The history or etymology of the religion's name has not been an area of interest, because I feel it does not affect the fundamental essence or message of the faith. Historians keep fighting over etymologies of everything; one can usefully add to the discussion only after much research. VishalB (talk) 07:53, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
- Ok, I will keep this in mind. Though I would still want someone like you to take an edit pass of the page when convinient, as the page perhaps is top search on google on 'Hinduism' and does look a little messy for readers. I understand your concern, as sources can be distorted in time as also pointed out by others so I have not insisted on any edit reversions on that.
- I agree that Etymology will not affect essence, though at the same time I would like to point out that a little indifference may lead to overlooking some incorrect assertions in Etymology added perhaps in bad faith(perhaps not), that is all my concern i.e. correctness and then avoiding misinterpretation. Otherwise I agree there is no point in adding irrelevant information. ..असक्तः सततं कार्य कर्म समाचर | असक्तः हि आचरन् कर्म.. Humour Thisthat2011 17:57, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
UNESCO World Heritage Sites
[edit]All articles, specially on UNESCO World Heritage Sites including the one I posted on India some months ago, use only the coordinates given in the UNESCO references. Other references are not used at all since it is exclusively on UNESCO sites. I found them in order.--Nvvchar. 08:50, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
- Good. There are too many sites around Delhi Agra belt, which makes it cluttered. We can't help it. Some of these sites that I expanded got upgraded to GA. You may like to try to expand some of the sites on the UNESCO's temporary list, if they are of short length. I can help to take it to DYK. I am now covering two DYKs for each country, and in between adding articles on India also, like the three dams now on DYK page. --Nvvchar. 10:26, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks Vishal for the Barnstar. I noticed it on mu user page only today since I did not appear on talk page. Nice to see a fellow Indian user giving me Barnstar after a very long time. Very nice gesture. Much appreciated.--Nvvchar. 02:36, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
WikiProject India Tag & Assess 2012 Contest
[edit]Hello friends, we are a number of editors from WikiProject India have got together to assess the many thousands of articles under the stewardship of the project, and we'd love to have you, a fellow member, join us. These articles require assessment, that is, the addition of a WikiProject template to the talk page of an article, assessing it for quality and importance and adding a few extra parameters to it.
As of March 11, 2012, 07:00 UTC, WikiProject India has 95,998 articles under its stewardship. Of these 13,980 articles are completely unassessed (both for class and importance) and another 42,415 articles are unassessed for importance only. Accordingly, a Tag & Assess 2012 drive-cum-contest has begun from March 01, 2012 to last till May 31, 2012.
If you are new to assessment, you can learn the minimum about how to evaluate from Part One of the Assessment Guide. Part Two of the Guide will help you learn to employ the full functionality of the talk page template, should you choose to do so.
You can sign up on the Tag & Assess page. There are a number of awards to be given in recognition of your efforts. Come & join us to take part in this exciting new venture. You'll learn more about India in this way.
