Edit on Dayak people

Pls do not remove edits but correct or improve them to meet your or Wikipedia's requirements. Pls act as a constructive editor to content development in Wikipedia, not as a mere easy editor who simply remove added references. I suggest you add comments or questions about newly added edits and give timeframes for the edits to be corrected before removing them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2402:1980:102:A5F9:2D00:A3C2:2650:398C (talk) 12:51, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Kalabuda

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 Kalabuda, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a foreign language article that was copied and pasted from another Wikimedia project, or was transwikied out to another project. Please see Wikipedia:Translation to learn about requests for, and coordination of, translations from foreign-language Wikipedias into English.

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". 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 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. --Miskwito (talk) 15:44, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You are already doing that. That's used for your signature. You can see in the welcome message is written that the two buttons in the tool bar also do that. You should put your signature everywhere you are giving some comments or writing in anyone's talk page. Don't put your signature in an article. Just put 4 tiles like this ~~~~ and your signature will appear there. --Jnanaranjan Sahu (ଜ୍ଞାନ) talk 05:55, 14 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Jnanaranjan,

I have compiled a book of articles and have it stored on my "User" page. I have given the link to that page to people I wanted to view the book. My question to you is, can you help me save a copy of the book for general viewing by anyone interested in the topic or tags? I am new to Wikipedia and am somewhat overwhelmed by all the various instructions to get different things done. All I would like to know is how to save my book for general viewing by anyone. Can you provide instructions. Thank you for your cooperation in advance. Keesluap (talk) 23:49, 19 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks & Question

Hallo Jnanaranjan sahu!

Thank you very much for welcoming me! Instead I would have a question, maybe you can help me: I wanted to create an articel about one of my favorite dance companys named "editta braun company". But I saw, that there was already an article about the Editta Braun company existing, which has been deleted in 2008. Is it now possible for me to write a new articel? (It wasn't me, who created the article of 2008.) Would my articel be published? Some short information about the dance company and why I find it would be senseful to have an English articel about the topic: The austrian choreographer Editta Braun is creating dance and thatre pieces since more than twenty years. In Austria her influence in the contemporary dance field is that important, that one can say, she is one of the founders of the contemporary dance in Austria. During her 20 years working she focussed on cooporations with dance and theater companies from countries all arround the world to create an exchange within the countries through dance. Her works was always and is still international. That's why the Editta Braun company is not only interesting for Austria (an articel in the German Wikipedia does already exist: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Editta_braun_company) but also for the English Wikipedia.

Thank you very much for helping! Kind regards, Sindy — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sindyrela (talk • contribs) 10:26, 25 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You Sindyrela for writing. I've gone through that article in German Wikipedia.German Wikipedia may have their own/different policy. You have already done what you should have by contacting the admin. If You don't get any reply then you can create the article but remember that article should be encyclopedic not promotional.

Request for help/advice

Hello Jnanaranjan. Thanks for your welcome message. I need some help or advice, please, as I seem to have got into a minor edit war over Parliament of the United Kingdom. The user X.equilibrium.x , previously editing as an IP, is insisting that the parliament be described as using legal english. He was reverted a few days ago by 3 users, including me, and the page was protected; now he is making the same changes and will not engage in a civil discussion on my talk page or the article talk page. To be honest I don't know what is best to do in this situation. Thanks, BethNaught (talk) 16:57, 26 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your signature

Hi, I really recommend you take the advice you've been given about your signature. It is illegible on a lot of displays sue to the shadow effect, and setting a fixed pixel size is against accessibility recommendations because some users need text to be larger to read it. I'm sure you will agree that Wikipedia is for everyone, not just for people with particular devices or a particular quality of eyesight. It is not in the spirit of Wikipedia to deliberately make text difficult to read for a section of the population. Best wishes, MartinPoulter (talk) 23:01, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Director Actor Writer

Hey, just wanted to give you a head's up: if you get anything along the lines of Director Actor Writer again, it's User:SEFPRODUCTIONS trying to avoid his block so he can re-add himself to Wikipedia. Long story short, Paul T.T. Easter has been trying (unsuccessfully) to re-add himself onto Wikipedia after an AfD closed as delete. You'll probably want to keep an eye open for them, as he's pretty die-hard in re-adding himself. (sighs) Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 09:58, 26 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion declined: Night of Trois Gateaux

Hello Jnanaranjan sahu.

Hi, you were right that it needed to be deleted, but not the criteria you nominated it under. So I deleted the page using a different criteria - the patent nonsense criteria is quite strict in what it can be used for, and after a quick bit of research I couldn't find anything which suggested it was real. It could probably have been deleted as vandalism or an attack page. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 05:58, 23 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You had this wrongly tagged: it was a clear copyvio (of the site given as a reference, so not hard to track down). Similarly the other article by this editor you tagged as vandalism isn't clear vandalism: it's probably a copyvio since it seems to be swiped from an old newspaper article, I would have tagged it as an article to short to identify subject. Only a detail, but since the articles didn't look like obvious vandalism I thought I'd mention. Keep up the good work!TheLongTone (talk) 12:57, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

hi Sahu,

thanks for your message - i unfortunately read it after clicking on "Contest This Speedy Deletion" button on the actual page - Im not sure I was supposed to click on it.

But please find here the reasons why this spage shouldnt be delected:

  • This person had has a relevant impact on the growth of Ecobank in Cote d'Ivoire and in Mali.
  • As a winner of several African Awards she is a great role model and has played a role in the development and the integration of the African Continent
  • She is a proud of the African Continent and it is important people (inspired Africans specifically) have the opportunity to read about her life and her career path
  • This has been created as a reply to several individuals who required to have access to her biography

Thank you for your understanding.

Hi Jnanaranjan,

I'm concerned about a number of folklore ideas about nuclear issues which don't make sense. One in particular is about the half-life of Strontium-90 in bone, with some (obviously shoddy) scientists giving wildly variable figures for this. The fact is that, bioaccumulation, or whatever you call it, is a CHEMICAL process, and will accumulate, Sr90 to EXACTLY the same extent as Sr84, Sr86, Sr87 and Sr88. The entire concept of a specific isotope having a chemical half-life is entirely dubious.

Some people seem to labour under the delusion that Strontium 90 is released into an environment that is entirely virginal with regard to other Strontium. From Wikipedia figures, I can calculate that the entire release of Sr90 from Fukushima was about 200gm, and seawater contains, 8mg/litre Strontium, 10kg per swimming pool and 1E13kg for the entire ocean.

As I said, the entire concept is flaky,

Graeme

deletion of Karan Aanand

Recently I logged into my account and noticed some messages and a page of my client Karan Aanand has been deleted. It says it was lacking references but I had put in references for the article. I do not understand what went wrong? Kindly, please guide me as I don't use Wikipedia that often and don't know what I did incorrectly.

Proposed deletion of Karan Aanand[edit source] Hello, Kj1983. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Karan Aanand, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want Karan Aanand to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.

If you don't understand this message, you can leave a note on my talk page.

Thanks, Jnanaranjan Sahu (ଜ୍ଞାନ) talk 09:17, 13 November 2015 (UTC)

Kj1983 (talk) 08:00, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Kj1983, It has been one year since the article has been deleted. Wikipedia has certain policies for writing article on living people. The article must have been deleted as it was not satisfying the conditions. I have a question, what do you mean by your client? Are you a paid contributor?--Jnanaranjan Sahu (ଜ୍ଞାନ) talk 01:04, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Kurt Noll

I have assurances from the subject of Kurt Noll, that it is not an autobiography. I am contemplating pointing out that the message doesn't unequivocally state that it is an autobiography but either an autobiography or written by someone connected to the subject. However, I note that the template was added after the first edit and others have edited subsequently so it's not clear to me that the concern is his strong as it was when originally added. I am contemplating removing it but want to check with you first.

I note you also added a request for attention from an expert, identifying the specific problem as "tag modification needed". I don't know what that means. Can you clarify?--S Philbrick(Talk) 16:50, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You Sphilbrick for raising concerns about that article. This case has been around three years old so I am unable to recall exactly why I have added that tags. I can see the version and I think the article is okay. So if you think you can improve that article in any way you can do it.--Jnanaranjan Sahu (ଜ୍ଞାନ) talk 02:07, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ali Shilatifard

Hello Jnanaranjan! Thank you for your nice welcome note several years ago when I created the article Ali Shilatifard for a cancer biologist. Recently, the page has come under a barrage of edits that seem aggressive. A COI template box has been placed for no reason. I have tried to resolve it using the Talk page on Ali Shilatifard, however, two editors seem to be blocking its removal with no specific evidence as to why. I was wondering if you could please visti the talk page and perhaps help resolve this issue. The content I have contributed is extremely neutral and sourced. The other editors seem to be making subjective edits without helping to reach a consensus. Can you please help remove this COI block and possibly, if necessary, add a protection to the article. Thank you! Magnolia007 (talk) 21:47, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop cancelling my edits

Please stop cancelling my edits
Dear Jeblat, please stop undoing my edits on the Abui people page. I am a professional linguist, working on the Abui language. I have done countless fieldtrips so I know what I am talking about. If you have ever been to Alor then you would know that there is a Bird's Head. The information I provided about Islam is also true. I have data for all my claims so please stop deleting my edits Geo saad (talk) 09:34, 18 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jnanaranjan, I'm Mallikarjuna from Kannada Wikipedia.

You were the Organizer for Odiya Project Tiger. We've been trying to connect with all Wikipedians in Bangalore, across languages. A meetup like that, will help us to carry forward the momentum of Project Tiger.

Could you kindly, put a notice on Odiya Village Pump & help me get connected to as many Bangalore based Odiya Wikipedia Contributors (either or all of Pedia, Source, Quote, Meta, Commons & Wiktionary). In July 2018, we wish to host a meeting of Bangalore based all language & all projects Wikipedians at CIS Office Bangalore.

Jeblat, pls do not remove citations and references in Dayak people but correct or improve on them to be a constructive editor. Pls help users to accomplish their edits rather than removing their edits which is easy to do by anyone. Removing them is anti-constructive to content development by readers in Wikipedia. Reinserting them consumes time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2402:1980:102:A5F9:2D00:A3C2:2650:398C (talk) 12:46, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That controversy

As I spent some time responding without a keyboard and then trying to save it to bo avail, here’s what I wrote.

@Jnanaranjan sahu The number of words is very relevant to NPOV. If the sources don’t discuss the controversy directly then it doesn’t matter if they are reliable and they and the text can be removed. Some sources being used are not reliable, eg government sources for this politically charged debate. And if you look at WP:NPOVN you will see there are problems I haven’t even mentioned which are pretty serious. And of course I took it to a noticeboard and haven’t reverted. If material doesn’t meet our criteria it should be removed. Also note the editor restored material with a citation noted tag, strictly against policy. And removed my text clarifying that Odessa was earlier called Orissa. Doug Weller talk 20:39, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Doug Weller I was going through the article edit history and in first hand it looked like that so I mentioned you and then I realized that there are multiple issues so I removed my comment. I apricate your work and time. Thank you so much for the insights. Writing in my talk page was not necessary but you are welcome 🙂
