/Archive0 /Archive1 (Tamil-related discussions) /Archive2 /Archive3 (of some aberrations) == Rose-ringed Parakeet == Hi Sundar, On the german Wikipedia there is a funny linguistic article :de:Halsbandsittich in vielen Sprachen (i.e. "Rose-ringed Parakeet in many languages") which compares the word for the Rose-ringed Parakeet (Psittacula krameri) in a lot of languages. It seems nobody was sure enough about Tamil to add a Tamil entry in the main table, but someone unearthed the following information: # ''"kiLLai" is a rather unspecific word used for this parrot'' # ''rural Tamils use sometimes a more specific "aarmavizuntakiLi"'' Can you confirm or deny these points? Can you give the names in Tamil script? User:Pjacobi 21:43, 2005 Apr 13 (UTC) == வருடபிறப்பு == இனிய புத்தாண்டு நல்வாழ்த்துகள்! User:Vadakkan 00:39, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC) == Tamil on Tamil New Year Day == It looks really nice to see Tamil as a featured article on the Tamil New Year Day 2005. Really commendable work. Congratulations and best wishes. I had learnt about your elevation to Admin level on the day you got the elevation. Plz accept my congrats. --User:Bhadani 03:35, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC) :congratulations from me also. Enjoy the featuring-o-the-day. User:Dbachmann User_talk:Dbachmann 14:14, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC) == WP:FARC == Hey there. I reverted your edit on Wikipedia:Featured article removal candidates/archive because the page is an archive of older nominations, on which a decision has already been made. If you want to vote for or against the removal of featured articles, please do so Wikipedia:Featured article removal candidates. The article you voted on, India, was kept as a featured article by the way. :-) --User:ContiE|User talk:ContiE 17:48, Apr 14, 2005 (UTC) == About article Bihar == I find that the article Bihar has been edited by some one and changed to Bihar (India), and other articles with the same name has been also referred to there. I feel this is not a wise step. The matter requires assistance and discussions so that the article Bihar gets its former name. Please try to do something.--User:Bhadani 03:47, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC) PS- I have posted the following on discussion page of article bihar: quoteThe edits of 17 April 2005 by Hottentot has been reverted by me as already there was a section in the article Bihar � Bihar (disambiguation) and as such there was no justifiable reason to change the main character by the name Bihar. The edits regarding Bihar by Hottentot are being placed in the section Bihar (disambiguation) . Here, it is also pertinent to note that though wikipedia sets its own standard, but even in Enclopaedia Britannica Bihar has been separately dealt with, and in my humble opinion the case with wikipedia should not be different. The article Bihar represents a state of India and 100 million people reside in Bihar and Bihar has a recorded history of 2500 years. In any case, the position of Bihar as a separate article was already accepted by the community of wikipedians as the legend Bihar (disambiguation) was there along with the main article of Bihar. I trust that the position has been clarified.Unquote I find this article has again been reverted by Hottentot. Please try to do something. Thanks.--User:Bhadani 05:00, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC) == Article Bihar - fresh developments == Kindly also see (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Bihar) - thanks --User:Bhadani 08:11, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC) == Article Bihar : Issue since resolved, thanks == Dear User:Hottentot and User:Mel Etitis User:Tony Sidaway User:Sundar User:Nichalp - Article Bihar related issue since resolved.

Maybe, this means, I really have to take some time and complete the Economy of India/temp of the article. Cheerio... pamri 14:39, Apr 27, 2005 (UTC) == Map of India == Hi Sundar, I'm having a bit of trouble on :Image:Indiastates&utnumbered.png (Image talk:Indiastates&utnumbered.png), an NPOV map of India made by User:Nichalp. User:Amitroy5 (User talk:Amitroy5) keeps on reverting the map to a POV version, and has so far ignored all of my attempts to discuss the map on both his own talk page and the talk page of the image. If possible, can you help me out on this matter, and try to talk to this guy? Thanks in advance. -- User:Ran (User talk:Ran) 23:58, Apr 29, 2005 (UTC) Hi Sundar, Amitroy5 is still reverting the map repeatedly, but he's not engaging in further discussion. What do you think I should do? I'm thinking about putting the page up for RFC. -- User:Ran (User talk:Ran) 21:49, May 4, 2005 (UTC) == Kannur== Hi , Sundar, I am sumal . I lived all my life in Coimbatore though I belong to Kannur. I want your assistance in updating Kannur. Can you help me out. I read your article on Tamil , good job man sumal == Wikipedia == The article was victim to a page-move vandal, and I was trying to delete the redirect in order to move it back. However, due to server slowness, I kept getting error messages, and in the meantime someone beat me to it and moved the real article back to where it belongs. The article still ended up deleted, despite the error messages, and though I tried many times to restore it, it timed out every time. I requested on IRC that someone restore it (and User:Kingturtle did; see [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=delete&user=&page=Wikipedia]), and it seems to be all fixed now. 11:50, 6 May 2005 (UTC) == Astrology == Are aware of an article about "Tamil palm leaf astrology" or something like that on either en.wikipedia or ta.wikipedia? I'm maybe searching for the right title. Name may also be "nadi" or "naadi" in whatever transliteration. An article on this has popped up on the german Wikipedia but I fear the author hasn't got that much right: :de:Palmblattbibliothek. --User:Pjacobi 14:15, 2005 May 6 (UTC) Thanks Thanks for the welcome, Sundar. I am looking through the pages - I don't know if I'll be able to contribute much but I'll try.. May 6 '05 == Copying to Commons == Hi Sundar, Thanks for copying my photo :Image:30-St-Mary-Axe.jpg over to the Commons. I'll probably get around to moving my other photos eventually, but there is always other stuff that needs doing. However, when you move images to the Commons, I think you are supposed to copy over the source and attribution info as well. At the moment, the 30-St-Mary-Axe photo is effectively a copyright violation. I'll fix this one, but you might want to check any other images you've moved over. There's also a template which you can add to the original Image page on En, to indicate that the image has been copied over (I think it also flags that original can be deleted). -- User:Solipsist 18:27, 8 May 2005 (UTC) == Server load == How does the new template reduce the server load? == 05:13, May 10, 2005 (UTC) : is no usual template. It simply inserts the contents of into the current page at the time of saving the edit and not everytime when someone fetches the page. See User:Xiong/TC for more information. -- User:Sundar (User talk:Sundar · Special:Contributions/Sundar) 06:00, May 10, 2005 (UTC) =={User} template== Being a computer science person, and having been on the fringes of the Netoholic versus others war about transclusion (I found JamesDay's comments the most useful), I did know most of that already, actually. Here's why I think it's better not to use subst: on VIP. Basically, we're trading off one kind of overhead (disk space) for another (processing power). That page is very large, and gets updated ''a lot''. Every time anyone makes a minor change (the way versions work at the moment), it makes another copy on disk of the entire page. That uses a lot of disk (and JamesDay and the other developers are busy trying to keep ahead of our disk usage). So by using the template directly, ''since that page consists mostly of {User} entries'', we substantially reduce the page size (and therefore disk usage). On another page, one which was a) small and b) not updated often, the balance would swing the other way. User:Jnc User_talk:Jnc 16:58, 10 May 2005 (UTC) : Sure, no problem. (Now let's hope I made the right call, and that saving disk is more important! :-) User:Jnc User_talk:Jnc 05:34, 11 May 2005 (UTC) == Request for help == Hi, I am trying to rewrite what seems to be a highly controversial article on Lingam. Is there any way to prevent users from making changes before discussing them ?. == Tamil FAC and Tamil wikipedia == I saw your message, and voted for Tamil people as FA. I also took a look at the :ta:தமிழ on ta. I made a few suggestions on the talk page, but unfortunately, I will not have the time to properly participate in anything on any wiki until late-September. But congratulations and mikka nanri for reviving ta., and I hope I can be active there when I return. Incidentally, do you know of any browser for Linux that can display Tamil unicode sensibly, so I can actually read what I'm typing? -- User:Vadakkan 14:34, 25 May 2005 (UTC) :Thanks - I'll be more careful henceforth. We follow different conventions for marking things "minor changes" on nynorsk, and I'm still not quite used to the rules of English wiki. -- User:Vadakkan 15:06, 27 May 2005 (UTC) ::By the way, I will not be accessing wiki for the next few months, but please feel free to email me through the "E-mail this user" link if you need to contact me. -- User:Vadakkan 15:25, 27 May 2005 (UTC) ==Tamil cuisine== It's an honor to be asked to enter the Tamil cuisine discussion, and I will try, but I am not sure I can contribute much. If a passionate interest in Indian cuisines is worth anything, I'm your moth, though. Whatever I come up with, I'll put on talk informally, and the person writing the cuisine section can use it or not. That is an already great article (Tamil people) by the way. --User:Mothperson 13:28, 26 May 2005 (UTC) == Images in Commons == No prob man, I'd have done it myself if I wasn't too lazy :) User:Kieff — User:Kieff | User talk:Kieff 16:39, May 26, 2005 (UTC) == Tamil grammar == Well, I did my best at summarizing Tamil grammar so that an adequate summary could be at Tamil language#Grammar. However Tamil grammar is already a fairly concise treatment of the topic so I couldn't cut too much (mostly examples and tables). And one thing we all need to understand about the Tamil language article is that a significant part of its size is due to two large tables and extensive use of HTML entities (which display as one character but are counted as 5 as far as the page size warning is concerned). So given that, the article does not seem too long to me. --User:Maveric149 23:37, 30 May 2005 (UTC) ==Dev discussion== As soon as I got your message, I hopped on IRC and talked with Jeluf (who is a developer). He said that both your tamil and english accounts use that yahoo address you mentioned. Which means that you should be able to request a new password with no problem. :[01:26] Ok, so should I just tell him to request a new password? :[01:26] I locked the password, but not the "new password". He should request a new one :[01:26] ok :[01:27] assuming someone did get his password :[01:27] but hasn't changed the email address yet :[01:27] is it possible for you to lock the email address? :[01:27] No, but as noone can log in to that account, no one can change the email :[01:28] no one can log onto that account? :[01:28] oh, so "locking" the password basically scrambles it :[01:28] yes :[01:29] ok, do you mind if I send him the last 5 or 10 lines of this conversation? :[01:29] go ahead User:Raul654 05:30, Jun 2, 2005 (UTC) PS - the email with your new password was sitting in one of the server's mail queues.

At least, references have to be added and the cleanup tag obviated. -- 10:04, Jun 8, 2005 (UTC) [edit:Oh, only now did I read your rules completely.

I need your viewpoints concerning this issue, and maybe a brief person-to-person discussion. The article seems to be a bit off in contrast with other articles, and Wikipedia:Style and How-to Directory and Wikipedia:Guide to writing better articles serves the purpose, but both of them seems to have often either attempted to deviate from the mainstream discussion, thus making explanation very difficult. (Mel Etitis has a tendency to "ridicule" my comments by counter-posting his comments on every comment that I have posted that I do not like, and I do not understand why, but it is very distracting. ) I would be very grateful if you can take a look at the article, and post comments on my :User talk:Mr Tan page itself.

I know it can be argued that the images there are in public interest, (right to information act and so on) but I don't think legally that is the case. Also please do not tag the images as category:India. There is already a category:Indian politicians. See commons:category:India.

Of course, to see if this is true, you ought to seek out the bins of people who are likely to have a different diet to yourself and give their bins a good sniffing. I think any problems of a social nature that may arise from this activity would be more than compensated by your increased wisdom. Alternatively you could ''wuss out'' and decide that next week you are going to have a themed diet in the household: see what happens if you and your co-habitees live entirely on cake for 7 days.
