Hi CompuGeek, I saw your user page and understood that you are a sort of Computer Techie. I'm a new wikipedia editor and I want to be adopted. Can you consider my request?
Mugunth 04:43, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
- Mugunth - Namasté (sorry, I don't know how to write it in Tamil - Sure I can adopt you. I noticed that you've been a member for a while, and just recently became more active. Wikipedia is a bit like an addiction - the more you do it, the more you "need" it.... Just a friendly warning (in good humor, of course!). I took the liberty of putting the "offering adoption" template on your userpage also. - NDCompuGeek 15:00, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
It's true! I really can't think of any other websites to go to anymore (well, before I started using Wikipedia, I really didn't know what website to visit anyway....) Sir Intellegent 13:30, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
There is a response to one of your messages on my page to reduce clutter. Sir Intellegent 20:12, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
I have a page of my user boxes (or -en), which are [almost] guaranteed to be funny or humorous. Sir intellegent - smartr tahn eaver!!!! 13:29, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
Hey, Geek, Someone have played with my user page, and it shows some new boxes, though the history remains untouched. What could be the reason?
- Mugunth, the PTB (powers that be) have done a massive upgrade yesterday - about 1200 separate discrete items - and the fallout is being felt all over. Looking at your userpage, it looks like there's a userbox that's not being parsed correctly, could be "Safilguda, Hyderabad" or "Sunil Kumar N.S.". I didn't see anything in your code for it, so I'm kind of at a loss right now.
- I know this isn't much of a help, but the only thing I can say now is to just wait out these upgrades (give it about another day or so), and see if the PTB fix their fixes.... I'll keep an eye on what's going on, and also try and see if I can figure out what's going on with your page too. - NDCompuGeek 15:37, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- (just giving suggestions). The people could have changed their coding to their userboxes which changes the userboxen on your page. Sir intellegent - smartr tahn eaver!!!! 20:38, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- For example, at 20:47, 20 April 2007 (UTC), I changed the word "dosen't" to "don't" (on my conflicting user box) to correct grammar, which, in turn, changes the UBX on your user page. Sir intellegent - smartr tahn eaver!!!! 20:47, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
My adopter, NDCompuGeek is not doing so well. Can you sign his get well soon card? Spread the word please. Sincerely, Sir intellegent - smartr tahn eaver!!!! 19:35, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
No consensus was ever reached, but TTN removed it anyway. At the time, I couldn't really be bothered to possibly violate 3RR with him, but I think I'll give it a shot now. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 11:05, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
- Um, why are you using Unreal Tournament, a regular article, as a base when you have Halo: Combat Evolved, a featured article, to work from? Halo doesn't use any lists of enemies or weapons, so no other shooters will. That is it. Weapons, enemies, skills, and levels are game guide material no matter how you list them. That is why you describe them, as a whole, in prose. For example, under gameplay, Halo has a paragraph describing the skills of the character and his weapons in general. It has a subsections for enemies and the levels (setting). That is what needs to be done. Nemu 10:14, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Snapshot of Google Earth Showing Googleplex.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. VegitaU 13:29, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
Regarding this edit: Did you try to at least Google for a source before tagging it, following the suggestion at Wikipedia:Citing_sources#When you check content added by others? I found an abundance of suitable reliable sources, but didn't judge a reference to be necessary for something as uncontroversial as this (see also Wp:lead#Citations in the lead section). If you insist, I can add a number of refs there, but please refrain from just {{fact}}-tagging something you haven't even tried to confirm or disconfirm by looking for sources, as appears to be the case here. — Dorftrottel 09:43, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
- @Dorftrot, The burden of evidence lies with the editor who adds or restores material. --soum talk 09:49, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
- Agreed. However, it's also best practice to look for references yourself before {{fact}}-tagging a statement. The relative ease with which I found several sources still makes me wonder... The two rather basic assertions my addition contains are these: (i) that Caesareans are in more recent times also performed in some cases purely on maternal request, without any medical indication, and (ii) that birth via Caesarean is not natural birth. Both informations are IMO accurate and necessary, and of course easily verifiable. So much so that I didn't expect anyone to challenge them. — Dorftrottel 11:54, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
- Also, Soumyash: I appreciate your good faith in commenting here on behalf of a countryman, but please re-read my initial comment above. I never said sources are not necessary, I merely said that I didn't expect the addition to be challenged and that I can hardly imagine Mugunth actually tried to find any before fact-tagging the statement. And seeing as Google quickly turned up an abundance of IMO acceptable sources, I can only reaffirm my scepticism. — Dorftrottel 20:37, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
Replied here... Mugunth 11:22, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
- Please don't take my comment personally. I was just pointing out a fact here, not saying anything directed towards your or Mugunth's actions. Since I don't know much about the actual nature of the dispute, I wouldn't have been wise on my part to comment on it. --soum talk 01:58, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
I think the problem is solved now... I've cited some references to that line in the article. @Dorftrot: Majority of my edits are in improving the quality of Wikipedia article and removing POV statements, link spams etc., Hence I don't take effort in searching to find a cite, unless my {{fact}} tag has not been cited for some days... After a few days, if the tag still remains, I usually try to quote an external site or remove the POV line altogether. I don't do the quoting at first because, I may not be quoting the best possible source for all areas at all time. My area of interest, (Windows/Microsoft etc.,) is different from articles like C-Section... Mugunth 05:49, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, issue resolved. And thanks for including the refs. Btw: I've spent some time formatting rather than writing new material, too: , . I know it's an often unthankful but necessary job, so kudos for doing that. — Dorftrottel 09:31, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
- I'm currently fiendishly busy IRL, but I've looked up and found a couple of sources that should provide satisfying verifiability. Going to reply in-depth later (along with the refs). If you still think the sentence is non-NPOV as is, you're of course welcome to reformulate it at any time. — Dorftrottel 11:48, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
Try the following external links for starters: , , , , , . — Dorftrottel 12:02, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
- I haven't instated any particular refs in the article yet, since I'd appreciate your opinion on which of the links (if any at all) you find the most acceptable. — Dorftrottel 07:27, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, I know it looks a little strange but it isn't really "washed out," it just looks sort of like it because the background was actually gray, although I know it looks as if it was supposed to be black. Plus, the LCD screen looks washed out from most viewing angles (with a camera, that is). I know it doesn't look amazing, but this is the best I could produce. However, I'll see if I can fix up the picture some more in Photoshop.
Thanks for the input! --aido2002talk 01:47, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I've removed a lot of external links from the above article. Can we now remove the spam banner on the article? Mugunth 17:56, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
- Hello, yes of course you can. You are the master on it, if you think the article doesn't include spams now, you are welcome to remove the tag. I will remove it for you, but next time, feel free to remove it yourself ;) Have a nice day. Martial BACQUET 19:00, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
Hi. I saw you removed the reference to India from the "Multiple citizenship" page. I agree with you, since OCI is not true "dual citizenship", even though many people are confused and think it is. However, I think some sort of explanation about what OCI is (and is not) really does need to be included on the "Multiple citizenship" page — probably including a link to the relevant material in the page about Indian nationality law. Otherwise, if the page on multiple citizenship is completely silent regarding India, someone else will inevitably come along and add something back, because the misconception that OCI is "dual citizenship" is so widely and strongly held amongst Indians. I could try adding something along these lines to the page myself, but I thought maybe I should ask you first and see if you wanted to have a go at it. Richwales 17:10, 28 October 2007 (UTC) Replied here... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Richwales#Overseas_Citizenship_of_India Mugunth 01:20, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
I reinstated the text on OCI but reworded it slightly to try to make my meaning clear. I never intended to claim it was true dual citizenship. See my longer comments on the talk page for the article. Feel free to rework it some more but I agree with the person writing above that it belongs somewhere on this page.--Dash77 21:37, 29 October 2007 (UTC) Sorry, I didn't initially see the new section on OCI when I wrote what I wrote above. I've left in the new section on OCI but reworked my text some more to reference the section on OCI.--Dash77 21:45, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

ZOMG! That's a LOT of spamlinkage! - CobaltBlueTony 17:28, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
Well, I'm using Twinkle. Other than that, I would guess it is just luck of the draw and when an admin takes a look at the candidates for speedy deletion.-MBK004 05:35, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- The item that was deleted quickly was an article. The images have a 48 hour grace period for copyrighted and images with no tags at all have a week. That could be why. I have also placed an 'Only Warning' about the image uploads.-MBK004 05:40, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- I have reported the user and also investigated all of their uploads and tagged them accordingly if they had not been already.-MBK004 05:59, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
Mugunth Kumar you are unecessarily editing the article there is no relevance of the table you are adding to the article on North India. Its not the article on North Vs South
Punjab, Haryana , Delhi, H.P, Gujarat and Maharashtra are the richest states in India with per capita income higher than any of the South Indian states, even they have higher literacy rates than South India. Just read these articles before your distructive edits!
—Preceding unsigned comment added by Himhifi (talk • contribs) 09:39, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
your articles are not a good reliable source. Moreover, statistics of five states in north india does not mean per capita of North India is higher or something... Refer this... (http://www.nlm.nic.in/literacy01.htm) Please refrain from making POV edits... Mugunth 10:02, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
Read the article on the southern slowdown by MOHAN GURUSWAMY publish in 'The Hindu' in August 2007 which will enlighten you about the state of Indian economy concerning different states, this is published in South Indian newspaper and written by South Indian. Mahrashtra, followed by Punjab, Gujarat and Haryana have the highest per capita income in India not even one South Indian state is in the top four!!
Understand that (Gujarat, Haryana, Himachal, Maharashtra and Punjab) are not "North India"... They are only 5 out of the over 20 states in North India.
That article compares South Indian States with those five states only...
First understand the article completely and then start editing...
and don't again add that junk links to the article...
Mugunth 10:35, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
The article doesn't claim that North Indian economy is superior to South, nowhere in the article any comparisons are made, State wide comparison are more relevant than North Vs East or West Vs South, even South Indian state have so many differences in socio-economic structure to group them together, how can you group half of India economically against four Southern states- its absurd, comparison can be made on State Vs State and clearly all the top positions are occupied by other states.--Himhifi 11:03, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
First of all, you started this comparison... when a comparison is not at all required... I never compared or stated anywhere that South is better than North or something like that. Stop adding your personal views... Try to quote articles before adding to Wikipedia. Also, don't again add those hundreds of external links... Mugunth 11:43, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
Mukunth kumar I have not done anything wrong to be blocked you are indulging in distructive and unnecessary edits, cutting and pasting unverifible material from article on south india won't help you either! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Himhifi (talk • contribs) 09:51, 8 November 2007 (UTC) I did not add any table.. I only removed your whole lot of unwanted external link collection... Mugunth 09:59, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

He's adding over 50 external links to the page and if I revert it back, he's accusing me of vandalism.. can u help me..? Mugunth 11:48, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
- I see you already added a report about him to WP:AIAV. Im not an administrator so i cannot ban his account for vandalism. I can, however, add another warning to his account. I will also watch the article in question for you till an administrator reviews his account. --Excirial (Talk,Contribs) 11:54, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I will unprotect the article per your request, however when you see User:Himhifi vandalizing the article, please add the {{Subst:uw-vand1|North India}}, {{Subst:uw-vand2|North India}}, {{Subst:uw-vand3|North India}}, {{Subst:uw-vand4|North India}}.

Thanks for uploading Image:Vista slow file system operations.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Remember the dot (talk) 23:34, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
If you suspect sockpuppetry, then WP:SSP is the way to go. If you suspect any user as the puppet masster, you can request a CheckUser check to confirm that the two accounts are indeed the same person. (Btw, Admins do not have check user rights).
Meanwhile, try talking with the user about the messages. If he does not stop or explain, it can be seen as disruptive editing and can be blocked. --soum talk 13:20, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
- From the day I started improving the article on North India, which was full of POV statements and unwanted external links, I have engaged in a lot of edit warrings, as some editors always try to add their own sweet statements into the text... and one particular user, User:Dosarassam was blocked because of continuous vandalism. I suspected this user to be a sock puppet of him because, the user is new and accuses me of vandalism precisely how User:Dosarassam did. This is why I resorted to report him at WP:SSP rather than waiting for him to reply...
Mugunth 13:29, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
- I was looking over contribs from both the users, but since Pyaremohan (talk · contribs) has not made any article edits, it is very hard to determine if the user is a sockpuppet (which could be done if both users made similar POV-edits to an article). I see WP:RCU as the only way to be sure.
- ok... I'll watch him... BTW, Thank you for mediating this issue.... :-) Mugunth 13:38, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I just wanted to let you that the report you filed at WP:SSP here, is somewhat incomplete, you name a suspected sock puppeteer, but not the sock puppets. Unless you meant Pyaremohan (talk · contribs) is the puppet and Dosrassam (talk · contribs) is the puppeteer. If this is the case, please let me know and I will fix it for you. Regards, Bmg916Speak 14:15, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, without a checkuser (only certain users have checkuser privleges) the only way to really tell if this is a sockpuppet is to look at the editing patterns of the suspected users in question. This is why I left the comment I did at WP:SSP, to help out the administrator who may review the case. If the SSP case does not determine that this is a sockpuppet, and you are pretty sure it is, I would request a checkuser. However, I cannot guarantee that the request would be accepted, as that is up to the checkuser clerks. Bmg916Speak 15:23, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I'm in the process of cleaning this article up so there will be many other changes as well. I've been contributing and developing this article from '04, but it routinely falls prey to regional fighting between contributors. To your question about universities, I don't think in the case of this particular article that it warrants a separate mention since South India isn't a distinct political entity and there's no one standard seconday educational system for the region. However, I think it should be included as an after-thought to the disussion about literacy rates, we can then indicate that sevaral unversities such as Anna University, IIT Madras and IIM Bangalore have contributed to higher learning in the region. Regarding FAC, I think it will take a while but it can definitely be done. It will surely take some effort on all our parts to get it to that stage. ThanksAreJay (talk) 01:46, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
Hi Mugunth, with regards to one of your recent edits to the culture section, I've changed it to include only two images...I've included 1 image each from TN and AP since these states aren't represented by any images in the other sections of the article. The reason for my change was that the Culture section typically gets inundated with images with everyone wanting to represent their state/culture etc. I think it is best therefore to restrict it to two.
Additionally, you seem very interested in South India. I wanted to see if you were interested in collaborating with me to clean up this article. As I see it, some of the most glaring issues with it are:
- Lack of references. This article is about 39k and has only 29 citations; this is an extremely low number considering its length. We need to effectively add citations and get rid of any POV-type statements that arent' cited.
- Copyedit for grammar and spelling
- Clean up the "Culture and heritage" and "Politics" sections
Do you think you'll have the time and interest for this? I can create a sandbox for cleaning up some of the sections. Let me know what you think. Thanks AreJay (talk) 16:40, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
I am responding to your recent contributions here and here. First of all, Tamil is not the official language of Sri Lanka which can be found here. Secondly, there have been migrations of Tamils from Sri Lanka before 1983 due to the ethnic unrest well in the 1970s and even 1960s. Just because 1983 had the biggest number of Tamils leaving Sri Lanka does not mean that everything was ok prior to 1983. There have been similar anti-Tamil programs during the years of 1956, 1958, 1961, 1974, 1977, 1979, and 1981. Your statement, "Tamils were having no problem or lack of opportunities in Sri Lanka" is clearly untrue? So is that what explains the mass abductions of Tamil youth who were found tortured and killed in 1979? How about the Sinhala Only Act of 1960 which made Sinhala the only official language depriving Tamils of jobs and education? What about the burning of the Jaffna library prior to 1983?

Hi Mugunth. No, what you said wasn't wrong in of itself, but it didn't quite work. It already says almost the exact same thing in the very next paragraph, with one difference: "Hindi" in the sense of the article is not an official language of India, "Modern Standard Hindi" is. "Hindi" is ambiguous: it could mean Urdu, Nepali, or Rajasthani as well as official Hindi. There's been a lot of debate as to what "Hindi" should be for the purposes of Wikipedia. kwami (talk) 12:13, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
Hi! I noticed that you just added something to the article with Japanese reference. I believe it is not allowed. I myself was attacked by other user when I use Japanese reference for an article. Google is said by some as not acceptable. I believe there are plenty of English sources for this topic. I am not going to remove it, but some other user might.
Please refer to Wikipedia's policy on this WP:REF, specifically:
- "Because this is the English Wikipedia, English-language sources should be given whenever possible, and should always be used in preference to other language sources of equal calibre. However, do give references in other languages where appropriate. If quoting from a different language source, an English translation should be given with the original-language quote beside it."
Hi there, the revert in question was one among many reverts I made to HD DVD yesterday, due to incessant vandalism. The removal of your banner was accidental, I was reverting about ten entries' worth of vandalism at that one point and just rolled it back to the best date I could find. I have no objection to it going back on if required? SynergyBlades (talk) 16:05, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

I have uploaded and replaced the Google Earth and Minesweeper screenshots, to provide a cleaner interface shown in both of them. Also to make them look as they would in a typical Windows Vista setup. I will resize the Google Earth screenshot as per your request to a 500px width. Bd8494 (talk) 17:16, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
I'm not happy about Bd8494 edits either, he's orphaned my upload and I had a very thorough copyright justification based on the dynamic resolution of the product, that's now hosed and without justification, you cannot see a damned thing in the image now (I know you asked for lower res, but as I said I had a legitimate justification based on the content). All to put a Windows Vista link and GUI on the image, this is NOT justification for changing an image, it's the exact same application with less info and my work is now gone. I am bummed about this, it's damned annoying to spend the time to make an original contrib and have some jerk erase it for such inane reasons. It's doubly annoying for my work to be completely erased by a bot. I will not be recreating this and I'll be a hell of a lot less likely to bother in future. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.106.103.254 (talk) 08:33, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
Thank you very much for congratulating me on my good fortune:-)--Pataki Márta (talk) 12:51, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
Thanks, Mugunth. Please contribute if you can to that page or the other regions of India pages. Could you possibly tell me where I could find a map similar to that on the South India page for the other regions of India ? I am invariant under co-ordinate transformations (talk) 17:34, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
Mugunth Kumar, no discussion on talk page regarding major edits on the article on North India, the article is changed without any consensus or discussion on talk page, kindly discuss on the talk page why you are canvassing to change the article in its present form. I am just objecting to the major edits done on this article without a single line of discussion, otherwise the article is already written with biased point of view and needs to be re-written. If you want to rewrite the article with NPOV you are wellcome.!!

- Thanks for standing up for me there, I am a bit busy right now but should be able to respond to Himhifi on the talk page soon. Thanks. I am invariant under co-ordinate transformations (talk) 14:37, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
To Mugunth Kumar and Anonymous person(199.106.103.254): My edits replacing the Google Earth screenshots and others were only to clean the interface up and make it look up to date. I apologize if this made you feel undermined or upset in any way. You may if you wish, re-upload your screenshots and replace mine. Please accept my apology, Bd8494 (talk) 20:02, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
I will take your advice into hand, thank you. Bd8494 (talk) 18:14, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for contributing to the article, but Sony is irrelevant to the Bollywood article and by no means constitutes a criticis of Bollywood. This info merely belons to the Eros article.
As you have mentioned in the north India talk page- the article is not about North vs South,similiarly this article is not about the South vs the North-if any comparisons need to be done do with the rest of the country or do with all regions and not just one entitiy, a part of the problem might be that the rest of the nation might be seen as "North" to the 4 southern blocks,but for the rest of the country, we do not view ourselves as one "block", there is West,( as the Maharastra agitation against "North Indians"shows that they do not consider themselves as North), there is East and the North East- there is no need for any chauvanism or jingoism,the South can rightfully take pride in it's achievments without running down any other region.

A tag has been placed on Syncplicity, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. Ridernyc (talk) 06:19, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.
For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:14, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
