uploading pics of malls

Hi Kondicherry, I've included 11 malls of Ahmedabad in the 'List of shopping malls in India'. I want to put 3-4 pics of some of the better looking malls, how should I proceed? Thanx in advance! Gandhi.rushabh1992 (talk) 14:29, 20 March 2012 (UTC)gandhi.rushabh1992

CSD

I cant decline deletion by removing db-a1 cuz i m the author but u can n u know it doesnot fit in any WP:CSD so please decline it. Thanks! Yasht101 07:42, 22 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks! N i m sorry for all 28 bad articles on PCC. i'll improve them by tommorrow night. I hope then u wont have any complains for me. Yasht101 07:50, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
Complains? You need to chill. And I suggest you to read WP:GNG and then decide about those PCC articles. --kondi talk/contribs 08:02, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
I've gone through that stuff a million times. N i m always in a cool icy mood :P
Trust me, they are notable and i'll show it tomorrow. After those PCC article, i also did create 40 more. You can have a look at them over here: [1] Yasht101 08:09, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
Don't go creating lot of articles in a short time, instead pick one give it some time. It works best! --kondi talk/contribs 08:14, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
I did in the begaining of my run. I created only 7 articles in january and edited intensivly to them. Thet endedup in getting deleted as G12 :p
I was wrong and i m not saying that it is useless to give articles time. But, there are few fixed plans of mine. I m not gonna spend my entire time just creating articles. This thing is only for March and then formatting, adding details etc to the articles. But for the time i m gonna create above 100 articles tommorrow :D I'll need ur help in improving them Till march 31. Then i m there to wikify and expand them. Yasht101 08:21, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
If you need help ask me for sure, but I'm not sure about improving them. --kondi talk/contribs 08:27, 22 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for contributing in Assessment 2012 , May i suggest you to also include the importance parameter for all categories in your assessment as in here [2] if we do not cover the importance parameter right now then it would again go to the list of unknown importance article and will have to be done twice. Right now there are approx 50,000 unknown importance articles already lets not increase it further -- ÐℬigXЯaɣ 19:06, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

Hey. I completed assesment of Category:Ahmedabad district geography stubs. Have I done it properly? If no, then guide me and If yes, then how much do I have to do to get rewards?? Happy assessment!

I saw couple o em, it's alright, want to help in Gujarat articles? There are 1000+ articles to be tagged! --kondi talk/contribs 11:13, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
Why not? I hav already started and have got 300 today itself! Yasht101 :) 11:22, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Thank you and Happy editing! Yasht101 :) 06:52, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

It's all okay, but first I gotta ask you, it this WikiProject approved by WikiProject Council? --kondi talk/contribs 09:03, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
Are you on a groccery store so you are asking for quality? :P You dont have to get Wikiprojets approved i gess. And to sign the petetion you have to go out of wikipedia so it can be considered a sister project of wikipedia in some sense. It is just a cause. You wont die if u signed it! Yasht101 :) 09:07, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
Clearly the project hasn't been approved, I think you should read Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Guide and Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals. --kondi talk/contribs 09:29, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
  • kondi looks reasonable here, I have read his links, Yash I guess you need to spend some time reading some of the policies here first. glad that you want to try new and do good things but it would be even better if they are in accordance with policies , [TIP: try not to make guesses about policies, you may be in trouble if you err] regards-- ÐℬigXЯaɣ 07:14, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
Okay. I m sorry if I violated any policies. Yasht101 :) 07:28, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
I think we both should chill little. This is for our semi-heated up arguments (though i was right in my stand and in a sens you were too, but little) I apologies for that. I didnt intend to make fun of you nor I was wishing to sound rude, but I think i shouldn't have critized you in that way. Sorry bro. So, m I forgiven? Yasht101 :) 04:58, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
This is not about forgiving and all. Wikipedia is not a battleground. Still you've written something that can be considered provoking. Don't compare/compete with others we're not to win here on Wikipedia, we're supposed make it better. --kondi talk/contribs 08:09, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Nomination Robotics portal article

Hi

Just to let you know that I am including the article in the Robotics Portal - mainly as they have just released their first commercial product to a Denver hospital. The article could also do with a bit of a clean-up.

Feel free to consider other nominations :¬)

Any interest in joining the Robotics project? Chaosdruid (talk) 03:46, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for this note. I'd like to help clean up the article. Currently I'm trying to revive WP:GUJ so even if I join the Robotics project I might not be much of help though thanks for the offer. --kondi talk/contribs 04:28, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
Oh yeah! Busy, which means hardly 15 edits per day out of which only 11 are relating WP:GUJ ;) Yasht101 :) 04:58, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

A user does not necessarily have to edit an article from any specific Project. I personally hate editing India related articles with a few exceptions and prefer editing other ones. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 12:10, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

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 User:Kondicherry 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 or group of people, 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 the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can 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 a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent 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. Yasht101 :) 07:45, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

Hahahha... Mine is on 16th October ;) BTW, i have gone for Adminship. please vote for me over here: Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/User:Yasht101_Is_An_ALIEN Yasht101 :) 07:59, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

Although the user was not using talk pages for the right thing, I think giving him a level three warning was not the right thing to do. As per WP:DTTR: "most editors who have been around for a while are aware of these policies. If you believe that they have broken (or are about to breach) one, it is frequently the result of some disagreement over the interpretation of the policy, or temporarily heated tempers. In such situations, sticking to "did you know we had a policy here" mentality tends to be counter-productive in resolving the issue, as it can be construed as being patronising and uncivil." Yash has been here for quite a while already, and is aware of policy, but is a little too excited about 1 April. Could you please explain why giving him a level three warning is better than writing a message from scratch that he broke the policy? Bmusician 12:36, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

I should've used {{uw-joke1}}. He has shown this kind of behaviour before too. I tried to tell him to act a bit more serious on wikipedia see this, and it seems that it had no effect. --kondi talk/contribs 12:46, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for your reply. Bmusician 12:50, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
Please dont take it negatively, but I think this happened due to this: User_talk:Yasht101/Archive_March_2012#Wikipedia:Civil.23Identifying_incivility
I agree that my behaviour was wierd, in fact wierdedst, but i dont think that you should have given me vandalism3. Still, if I were not proper, my apologies for that Yasht101 :) 16:49, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
The reason which you mentioned was not the only one, before this also on Noopur's talk page you chatted in Hinglish, chatting and not writing in English both violate talk page guidelines. And also you should talk in a solemn-polite sometimes what you consider as friendly might not be as considered by someone else. You pranked (or tried to prank) users on April Fools day, but someone might consider it as spam. You are new in the community if you were comparatively older you might have got scolded just like User:Rsrikanth05. It okay for now but you should keep this in mind.--kondi talk/contribs 17:50, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
I was not the only brat who tried to fool others. User talk:benzband and User talk:cyberpower678 also kept 'new messages template' on their talk pages and user pages to fool others. I agree that I did little too much, but I left speedy deletion message on talk pages of about 15 users from which 11 replied with humor, 1 person whome I know from the start and I was expecting to take it likely droped me level 3 warning and 3 didnt reply. About Hinglish, I have seen few editors talking in spanish also. And where is it written that you cannot occationally chat in Hinglish? I dont think that level 3 warning of 'Vandalism' is proper for me. There were 100 users who vandalized wiki yesterday. If you can u can uw-joke1 me but vandalism3 is not acceptable. Can you please strike through the warning on my talk page? Thank you Yasht101 :) 02:33, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
I gave you {{uw-joke3}}, but I agree I should've used level 1 notice. One more thing check your mail. --kondi talk/contribs 05:43, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

A page for Gujarat Information Department

Hi Kondicherry! Thanks for the welcome and the cookies! I'm attempting to create a page for the Gujarat Information Department since I work here. I have never created an article on wiki before and just attempted minor modifications to random articles. I'm trying to find my way around and am hopeful to receive your help and suggestions, especially in formatting and syntax. Cheers Sahit87 (talk) 06:04, 5 April 2012 (UTC)Sahit87

Since this is your first article I suggest you to initiate it in your sandbox. And take a look at Wikipedia:GNG. When you're done with creating the article in the sandbox, let me know. You can use Wikipedia:Cheatsheet for help. --kondi talk/contribs 06:28, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi, with contributors like you, Tag and Assess 2012 has reached mid stage. To speed up the activities, certain special awards have been announced.

Removing the CSD

Hey, Kondicherry. I saw that you removed the CSD tag; that's fine, but the only source that is cited in the article currently is the website itself. In a Google search, I see a bunch of blogs talking about it, but no actual reliable source. (It's also been deleted once already today.) No worries, though, I'll give him some time to work on it. Writ Keeper 15:56, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

First of all thanks. Second, I don't usually do this but there was this wikipedia workshop I organized in which I told the participants not to create article on their very first day, but still this guy created one, I just removed the csd template because they don't know everything about policies yet and I don't want them get discouraged. --kondi talk/contribs 16:01, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

New Page Patrolling

Hi. Thank you for patrolling new pages and Malayalam proverbs. I'm just letting you kn ow that even if it might be deleted later by a patrolling admin, we do not tag WP:A3 articles such as withing five minutes of creation. For more information please read WP:NPP and if you need any help don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 07:37, 15 September 2012 (UTC)

I'm just getting started with NPP, will take care in future. Thanks. --Kondi (talk) 07:42, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
OK, but please read the instructions before you start. You will also need to read WP:DELETION entirely and consign the most common cases and criteria to memory. Please also thoroughly read the articles you patrol first - sometimes COPYVIOS, hoaxes, and attack pages might look quite innocent at first glance. Accurate tagging is essential. When you start patrolling, you may also wish to keep WP:NPP open in another window for quick reference. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 07:49, 15 September 2012 (UTC)

Not serious

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... There is nothing promotional about it. The seriousness of the request is equal to zero. No promotion, just adding a militant group in the wikipedia database with solid and reliable sources. Wikipedia has already dozen of fighting militias in its database --LeinadLacinorhc (talk) 18:45, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

"solid and reliable sources" - Single source referred 5 times is still a single source. Reliable, yes, but it still fails as per WP:GNG. It seems to be written for promotion of the group. --Kondi (talk) 18:58, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
