| Hi, do you think a Misplaced Pages in English, written in Devanagari script is a good idea? There are many speakers in India, and it could be much easier for them to read and write a phonetic English in Devanagari than in original English with this irregular orthography. For example, the letter '''ऊ''' can be written in at least ten ways, gn'''u''', wh'''o''', r'''oo'''t, sh'''oe''', fr'''ui'''t, bl'''ue''', t'''wo''', thr'''ough''', cr'''ew''', y'''ou''', ... Articles in Devagari could then easyly be transcripted (by a bot?) into the other Indian scripts like Gujarati, Bangali, Tamil aso. — ] 8 July 2005 00:38 (UTC) | |||
| :Sorry for the cross-talk. But, why would anyone want to read English in Indian language scripts? I don't think there are many Indians who speak English but can't read that. Instead, we should promote the regional language wikipedias themselves, say Hindi, Marati, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali etc. Perhaps I didn't get your point clearly. -- ] <sup>\] \]</sup> July 8, 2005 04:11 (UTC) | |||

| Hi Hemanshu, | |||
| Are you an ex-student of HMPS? I studied there for full 10 years. Can you guide me to an alumni website or club on campus? I live abroad. Also, would it be possible to put up lists of the Principals of HMPS on Misplaced Pages, and maybe of ex-faculty and present faculty, with contact details, for the benefit of alumni. I think our campus is so beautiful that we surely should put up some snaps | |||

| == Missing articles hotlist == | |||
| I have reverted your most recent changes at the ]. Your previous removal of ] is very appreciated, but if you think that a redlink is in appropriate, please move it to ] rather than removing it wholesale. All of these topics came from encyclopedic sources (general or specialty) and deserves some sort of coverage in wikipedia. I checked several of the links that you removed and many can be developed in full length articles or at the very least be redirected elsewhere. Can you also put edit summaries into your entries, it made tracking your changes quite difficult. Thanks so much. --] 15:00, 19 October 2005 (UTC) | |||
| ::I did not remove the red links. I moved them to a separate page. Please check. --Just my 2 cents -- Hemanshu 15:27, 19 October 2005 (UTC) | |||

| :::: I have spent the last hour looking your changes and it appears that you have removed links from the Hotlist that covered by Britannica and Encarta but not[REDACTED] (See and , note that ] , ] , ] , ] are listed but haven't been created). | |||
| ::::While I would like to finish this project quickly as possible, the goal it to create content, not to fake completion. I haven't checked to be sure, but I am fairly sure that some of the bluelinks that you deleted did not have complete coverage, i.e. the titles may have been the same but they may have referred to the different persons with the same name. --] 16:26, 19 October 2005 (UTC) | |||
| ::It appears that I was confused about the deletion of items for which I apologize, but your lack of edit summaries, movement of content to pages not linked to the template or main project page made that confusion very easy. I would like to change the format back to single level list as is the convention with all other projects rather than using subpages. It makes the calculation of completion much easier and navigation to articles much easier. If you have no objections I will do so tomorrow. --] 17:08, 19 October 2005 (UTC) | |||
| ::The main reasons I moved the links to subpages was coz the pages were very long so I wanted to divide them to make them easier to access and I did not want to disturb the overall organization of pages. I do not mind if you want to ensure all pages are linked to from the template but I would prefer if the pages weren't too long. --] 07:07, 20 October 2005 (UTC) | |||
| :::I actually don't have a problem with the pages being too long, but I understand why anyone would think so. The pages started at 100 but people complained about them being too short, especially when there was so many blue links to trim. 500 ended up being a comprimise number. The other option decrease page size is to increase the number of pages, which I really don't like, the template is crowded enough as it is and it would require more frequent reorganization. --] 18:29, 20 October 2005 (UTC) | |||

| ==Request,Nomination for removal ] article== | |||
| Hello Sir | |||
| I'm nominating this page for deletion because it is written with a point of view , excessive use of unreliable sources.and the title "Khalistan" is wrong for the topic because "Khalistan" does not exist,lack of support from resident Punjabi's and Sikhs in India, but there was a "Movement for Khalistan" and that is the right title for the topic, and i think this whole article "a new name" should be rewritten with the help of people from sikh community "in" India and other Indians, because this topic is related to politics/people of India.We all should understand Khalistan is not a political entity and having a article is not justified, Microsoft Encarta and Britannic encyclopedia don't have an article known as "Khalistan" but they do have articles on the movement that took place decades back, and i think there are also copyright issues involved with this article because big parts of this article are written on other peoples research. Many reliable sources are used to show "one side" of their view on the topic, there are also indications that organisations banned by US and EU are involved in providing their research on the movement.I am a strong supporter to have a stub on this topic , but im afraid that such articles on[REDACTED] have become mouthpieces for organisation which are known for disrupting peace (assassination of one of india's prime minister, twin bomb blast in New Delhi on the eve of Diwali) in Indian sub continent. | |||

Press contact details
If you are receiving this message, you are either a new, existing, or possible future press contact for one of the languages you speak. What does this mean, being a press contact?
The Wikimedia Foundation runs a Communications Committee, which co-ordinates requests for interviews from the press. When we receive a request for an interview, often the journalist wants to interview someone that speaks their "native tongue", or someone that lives in the same country as their publication. For this reason, it is important the the Communications Committee keeps an up-to-date log of contributors that they can trust to represent the community in a professional manner.
This list of press contacts has started to grow. The goal is to eventually have at least one trusted user on the list from every country in the world, and one user for every language that the Foundation runs a project in.
What are your responsibilities? Whenever a journalist requests an interview, either by phone, by e-mail, or (rarely) in person, you are able to either answer the interview request, or pass the request off to another user that you trust. Whenever a newsworthy milestone is reached on your project, you should help co-ordinate the creation of a press release, and once it's ready, send it to me to post in your language's press room.
Any questions, comments, or concerns? Contact me directly. -- en:user_talk:zanimum
