This user is no longer active on Wikipedia as of NOW!!!.
Uh, I sort of thought someone would kinda "welcome" me to the community. But, what the heck. Welcome!!!Welcome to Wikipedia! Never mind about people not welcoming you yet. It took 6 months before someone noticed that I hadn't been 'welcomed' (see User_talk:DonkeyKong64). I'm not a very prolific contributer to Wikipedia - in fact, almost all my contributions are either minor edits (formatting, spelling, grammar edits), or suggestions/comments on talk pages. I am also interested in philosophy, as well as being scientifically minded (I am a mathematics student). Also, I love talking to thoughtful people who have perspectives that are different from my own. As an agnostic/atheist from a generally left-wing background, I would love to learn about Hinduism and right-wing philosophies. Well, I guess that's all I've got to say for now. If you want to reply to me, leave a message on my talk page. And have fun editing wikipedia! DonkeyKong64 (Mathematician in training) 07:08, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

ANANT SINGH अनंत िसंह 08:06, 9 July 2007 (UTC) other templates for hindithanks for replying. kindly refer to the other templates for hindi (hi-1 to hi-4). hindi is spelt as हिन्दी. is it the correct spelling in devanagri script? i don't think so. my userboxes are fine. i don see any dotted circle below the ee ki matra...i'm using firefox only. i dunno what the prob is. the way hindi is spelt in hi-1 to hi-4 is appearing to me as HANIDI! i guess the hindi fonts are screwed up over the net. i've spelt it the right way man. it appears correct to me (i mean, i wont spell my own surname wrong)...i suppose the indic languages are not installed on my comp. i'll check those and see. ok...have done that. will see what the prob is in my computer. regards.

I have been thrilled to find that there are a number of people out there appreciating what I have been trying to do to - it has been lonely and disheartening at times wrangling with the fanatics.

HeyYea my userboxes do exhibit contradictions. I don't particularly believe that Hindutva or the BJP are fascists in practicality, as they do not exhibit the features fascists from history do in that they are democratic, they do not believe in seizure of state power, they are culturally nationalistic whereas all fascists are usually racially nationalistic and I really don't expect Rajnath Singh to be the next Francisco Franco. I also exhibit a personal belief that Hinduism is very special, that Bharat is the Hindu rashtra and that revolutionary conservatism is required to preserve the outstanding Hindu culture/religion which has survived so long under so many oppressions, hostilities and massacres suffered by its members. Why did the Gujarat riots affect you, there has been no proven links to the BJP also the fact that Congress instigated more mob violence in 1984. In my opinion a larger quantity, so to speak, of equality will exist under Hindutva in India than the anti-Hindu bias and pseudo-secularism that is prevalent at the moment and largely accepted by everyone. Hindu workers are butchered in my home state of Kerala by machete armed Marxist or Islamic mobs (like Gujarat riots in smaller scale) relatively frequently with the Marxist government and the media turning a purposeful blind eye to the situation, and I expect anti-Hindu violence to be prevalent elsewhere in India but in smaller amounts but never well documented and suppressed by pseudo-secularists. Also Hindutva law reform will make the legal system more equal in its treatment of everyone, though it is justifiably tailored to the majority Hindus. I think we can objectively say that India under secularist Congress is no means egalitarian, perhaps it is in the formal sense, in which case it can also be said Hindutva shares a few features with defined Fascist ideology (anti-communism, cultural nationalism) but similarly in some amount all right leaning parties in that way share elements with fascism, it is just reverse simplistic McCarthyism used by the left, but yes, you cant pinpoint Indian secularist political ideology with not supporting equality (despite the actual reality). I am slightly biased in favor of Hinduism who I believe to be without equal among current religions and much more than religion and I feel offended and disrespected that Hindutva is likened to fascism. I will not let my personal beliefs into Wikipedia however, unless I can find sources to support it of course. India is unique, has a unique situation and Hinduism is special to me, for the rest of the world I support formal equality, so there I admit I am a bit of a hypocrite but exceptions always exist. B Nambiar (talk) 11:36, 18 November 2007 (UTC) Yep, two wrongs don't make a right. Though it is important not to judge Hindutva by the actions of BJP, the Gujarat pogroms and some Hindu mobs, violence isn't a part of Hindutva and I am not happy to hear that speakers on Hindutva reminded you of fascism but not surprised. Yes Hindutva does involve dehumanization of the other i.e Muslims, but rather dehumanization of foreign ideologies more precisely, but dehumanization of the other is obviously necessary to push Hindu nationalism just like smoking is made to be considered harmful to reject it, it is logical. Hindutva claims especially by Sri Sita Ram Goyal, are very logical. The fact is that increasing foreign influence in India diminishes Hindu culture/religion(Hindu rashtra)and reduces the rights of the majority, and more instances of anti-Hindu activity result such as terrorist attacks and mob violence. Based on past events it can be said Hindus cop it much more than they dish out, and anti-Hindu bias is so prevalent and easy to add to that Hindus barely react to it and suffer the bias, with the ones standing up to it criticized as extremists too simplistically. The possible results of Hindutva is not too dramatic, a quick change of divisive laws which can be abused, the rightful recognition of India as the Hindu rasthra, more liberal economic reforms, more proactive diplomacy in international matters and hopefully removal pseudo-secular bias in education and an easy to view and acted upon position on terrorism. Negative externalities will result with Hindutva, human nature, but it occurs as a result of all types of politics. At least with Hindutva it will be more overt, than hidden ulterior motives hard to place in other types of political ideologies. Again Bharat is special, from an objective standpoint I claim, and for unique India, unique Hindutva is my political choice and unlikely to change. I believe I agree with what you have said and can still justify my views. Hindutva will not lead to gas chambers by any means, the situation and ideology is much different, though it might change immigration patterns. You believe human rights are under threat with Hindutva I gather, to which I think that human rights overall will improve in India, as a result of less anti-Hinduism, although it is likely that minorities will lose some human rights. Just to add, I have faith in Hindutva(BJP) economic policy and human development index largely correlates with per capita GDP, with the exception of Kerala strangely, so I believe Hindutva should overall benefit India more than other political parties.B Nambiar (talk) 14:21, 20 November 2007 (UTC) Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBotSuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles.

In the afternoon, we will hold a session dedicated to meta:Wikimedia New York City activities, sign official incorporation papers for the chapter, review recent projects like Wikipedia Loves Art and upcoming projects like Wikipedia at the Library, and hold salon-style group discussions on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects (see the January meeting's minutes). In the evening, we'll share dinner and chat at a local restaurant, and generally enjoy ourselves and kick back.

Hi Amit!Thank you so much for your welcome note the other day. Sorry I have been so long to reply but I have not only had guests staying with us for the past several days - but my back has been really bad and I am in bed most of the time and only able to work on my computer in short bursts. I am waiting to go for an operation soon - I see a surgeon next week who will be referring me to a neurosurgeon and then I should discover exactly when they will have to fly me down to Cairns for the operation (our nearest city of any size - about 350 km south of here by road). I must admit I am not looking forward to having my back operated on - but I have no choice - I can't walk more than about 50 metres at the moment and am in pretty constant pain. (I tell myself I deserve it as I must have been really naughty in previous lives!) About the Jat pages - I have been pleased to see that there seems to have been much less racist propaganda being posted on them recently and the quality, generally, seems to have improved - so I haven't felt I have had to wave that vandal-whacking stick about that you so kindly awarded to me - which is a relief as I really hate fighting and arguing with people! Although there have been a number of minor on-going arguments between various editors about whether there are more Jats in Haryana than anywhere else or that the numbers of Jats in Pakistan keeps getting wiped - I really don't feel this is my business - nor do I have any reliable information on such matters. I do keep a regular eye on various pages dealing with matters pertaining to Jats in case there is any resurgence of racist vandalism - but am really pleased I haven't felt the need to intervene recently - I do hope it stays that way. I am working hard trying to get my big book on the early history of the Silk Routes off to the publishers before I have this operation - so I have been doing less on the Wikipedia recently. What are you up to? I do hope you are well and having fun! And may I once again thank you for your kind support in the past which really helped cheer me up when I was feeling very alone dealing with some rather unpleasant characters! I send you my very best wishes from Down Under, Cheers, John Hill (talk) 23:52, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
Hi, Amit!Thank you so much for your kind note. The back pain is pretty constant, unfortunately, and sometimes severe, and my poor wife, Jo, is having to do almost all the chores around our home as I am really limited in what I can do. Also, I am pretty constantly on codeine and other drugs. Have been to see my GP and a surgeon again about possible operations to my back but the picture is gloomy - especially as my spine is riddled with osteoporosis (which means it is very brittle) and I have several discs in different regions of my back which are damaged and it is difficult to say which most urgently need attention. I am due to see a neurosurgeon soon - but I don't expect he will recommend surgery unless it is really necessary to prevent further damage. Fortunately I can usually sit up in bed with my laptop fairly comfortably for several hours each day and I have been working as quickly as possible to get my first book ready for publication. I am getting close now and am beginning to feel really excited! By the time I do this work, though, I really have to lie down and so I am making many fewer contributions to the Wikipedia these days. I notice you are "retiring" from the Wikipedia - but I hope you don't give up on it altogether. I send you my best wishes and do hope we can keep in touch from time to time. All best wishes, John Hill (talk) 23:51, 29 April 2009 (UTC) WikiProject India Newsletter, Volume IV, Issue 1 – June 2009

WikiProject India Tag & Assess 2012 ContestHello 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. ssriram_mt (talk) & AshLin (talk) (Drive coordinators) Delivered per request on Wikipedia:Bot requests.

The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 02:24, 21 October 2016 (UTC) WikiProject PunjabDear WikiProject Punjab Members, The Wikipedia WikiProject Punjab interface has been upgraded to a more convenient structure.
