Archive From January 2014 to APRIL 2014 Date conversion from Hijri year to WesternI realise that the date conversions are only approximate but there were two problems with the original edit. First as per Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers#Julian and Gregorian calendars says that they should be given in the Julian calendar. For some reason the birth date was given as the Gregorian calendar but the death date in Julian. Second in the section above, Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers#Era style says not to change back and forth between CE and AD. Also it seems more neutral to give Western dates as CE in Islamic (and other cultures) articles rather than the Christian dating but that may just be me. I should have left an edit summary as to why I changed it back. I've updated it with Julian date for the birth and, as I said, didn't need to change the death. I also used a reference. It is the easiest of the calendar converters I've seen and unlike some others doesn't baulk at using early dates. Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 12:13, 1 January 2014 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for January 3Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ishikawa Akimitsu, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Iwaki Province (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.

mutah nikkahyou seem to think that by your gross biased and one sided article you have somehow done some favour to Islam. You seem to be a very minded way to looking at Islam. I wonder what it will take for you put on to the your article the following points about verse 4:25: Verse 4:25 says that a desperate man is advised to marry a slave girl or be patient. Why is mutah not mentioned for him? If verse 4:24 is about mutah then what is the point of verse 4:25 because mutah will be for desperate men and so why marry a slave girl? please try to answer these points honestly as otherwise you will be stating a lie about the Quran and hiding a verse which is totally against islam — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.36.129.21 (talk) 21:32, 4 January 2014 (UTC) Helixsoft's Token of Appreciation
Begum Hazrat Mahal article quotation sectionThanks for adding references for the Begum Hazrat Mahal article quotes. Can you please check the formatting of the section per WP:QUOTATIONS especially WP:QUOTEFARM and WP:LONGQUOTE. The cquote format should only be used when you want to highlight a quote from a prose section: "For pull quotes (quotes of the article text used to highlight a section) the {{Cquote}} template can be used." If you want to format the quotes into a table, you can do something like Gangnam_Style_in_popular_culture#Politicians where it lists the notable figure, their position, and then the quote (with reference).

The correct link is not where I would have expected it on the disambiguation page, either. It is down in the science and technology section. I've put the correct link in its place and suggested on the disambiguation page's talk page that it needs to be clarified. Of course it makes some sense since the V in the Fokker stands for "Versuch" and the page is about a research organization. --Lineagegeek (talk) 22:37, 20 January 2014 (UTC) Jiva GoswamiIt would be best to remove the link to Anupama,as the character is just mentioned by that name in traditional biographies of Sri Jiva.Guru-45 (talk) 06:08, 28 January 2014 (UTC) Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBotNote: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top.

Urdu brailleThere are two Urdu brailles, actually, one used in Pakistan and one in India. Calling the first "Urdu Braille" and the second "Bharati Braille" are both inaccurate. — kwami (talk) 01:04, 7 February 2014 (UTC) Disambiguation link notification for February 10Hi.

Sentences like 'Lucknow has been one of the great centres for Muslim culture' are doing just that. Well i'm sure it must have been, but that is very old history now, almost like a tell-tale. I can give you a list of cities which are good centers for muslim culture and Lucknow is nowhere near that. So, keep up the good work but be careful. thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikiboy2364 (talk • contribs) 18:34, 17 February 2014 (UTC) Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBotNote: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top.

Remember back in February when we made history by clearing the board for the first time ever, for the monthly disambiguation contest? Let's do it again in May! I personally will be aiming to lead the board next month, but for anyone who thinks they can put in a better effort, I will give a $10 Amazon gift card to any editor who scores more disambiguation points in May. Also, I will be setting up a one-day contest later in the month, and will try to set up more prizes and other ways to make this a fun and productive month.

There are not enough editors who are reviewing or nominating mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review, and this probably means that you will notice a red link or “This space for rent” as our mottos for the next weeks and months. Please take a moment to review the nominations and nominate your own new mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review and Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/'Specials. Any help would be appreciated! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 09:13, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
