User talk:Titodutta/Archive 45

The March 2014 backlog elimination drive is a month-long effort to reduce the backlog of articles in need of copyediting. The drive begins on March 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on March 31 at 23:59 (UTC). Our goals are to copyedit all articles tagged in December 2012 and January 2013 and to complete all requests placed in January 2014. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copyedits at least one article, and special awards will be given to the top five in the following categories: number of articles, number of words, number of articles over 5,000 words, number of articles tagged in December 2012 and January 2013 and the longest article. We hope to see you there!

– Your drive coordinators: Jonesey95, Baffle gab1978 and Miniapolis

Tito, I've just seen your conversation with Bgwhite. Here's the deal: you put in for that scholarship and if you get it then I'll make bloody well sure that I come down from Manchester for a meet-up. I'll buy you a meal if needs be - we can't have excellent contributors missing out just for the sake of a few bucks. Ok, I may not be able to hear you on the day but you can always satisfy the desire of many of your countrymen by punching me in the face or whatever! - Sitush (talk) 17:30, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

And if it is USD24 for your passport then I'm happy to fund that. No big deal. - Sitush (talk) 17:57, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

• (edit conflict) @Sitush: Thank you. I was trying to know the people from my known and reliable circle who are going to join. If there are some guys we may go for a group presentation. I have submitted a presentation. I have just started preparing it. If you are going to be there, we may go for a better/another presentation. You may lead the presentation, I don't care about it. I have few ideas—

You may suggest any other topic and let's go for it. It'll be excellent. Tito☸Dutta 18:00, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

I stumbled upon this conversation and then read the thread at Bgwhite's page as well. I do not know about the scholarship grant process, so cannot comment on that. However, as Sitush has gracefully offered to help out if needed, count me in that, too. If you need some assistance, I'll feel privileged to be of use.

However, I may not be able, due to work pressure in real life, to help in the presentation. Regarding the passport processing time (and then the visa processing time, which should not be much lengthy though), make sure you try to get the information on how long does it take to have a new passport. If that is too lengthy (say, two months), you'll need to apply in tatkaal category. That would cost more (I guess around $60).

I genuinely feel you should attend Wikimania and present there. Please be in touch with others in Indian wikimedia chapter. Jayantanath can help you with getting in touch with the honchos, if you are not in contact with anybody. You are one of the few wikipedia editors residing in India who really do enhance the content in WP:EN. So, you'd be a very good representation of WP:EN content editors from India. --Dwaipayan (talk) 01:34, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

• @Dwaipayanc:, I should apply within a few days. I am not much optimistic. I have posted in Tinu Cherian's and Jayantanath's talk pages. I don't know who else to write. And I am personally very much reluctant to ask. Are you coming there at London? --Tito☸Dutta 02:04, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

• No I am not going there. I could not even attend it last time when it was in Washington DC. I think you better email those people. Jayanatanath, Tinu, and perhaps Karthik Nadar, Bishdatta (although I am not sure about the latter's role now, perhaps Jayantanath can confirm) for guidance.
• Yes, apply for passport ASAP. And again, ask about the expected time of processing. You should definitely apply for visa by early July (latest) for the early August conference dates.--Dwaipayan (talk) 02:21, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

Tatkal passport should take less than 7 days (I got my name corrected on my passport in less than 7 days), the new Passport seva kendra are really good. Get an appointment online today also unlike the US Visa, UK visa processing is bit easy. All the best. -sarvajna (talk) 04:43, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

Email me, Tito. I'm not sure if India has any restrictions on currency movements, for example. Also, ask at WT:INB to see if anyone else is going. I can probably help with suggestions for what to raise in a presentation but with my hearing as it is, I have very little control over my voice levels + I tend to stumble over things when the tinnitus is bad (which means more or less permanently at the moment because the hearing aids help mask that issue). - Sitush (talk) 08:22, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

• User:Netha Hussain and User:Karthikndr are quite active off-wiki in India Chapter's work. They might be going too or would at least know who else is going. They both can also drop emails on some emailing lists i guess. (I suppose not everyone can. I have replied to one of those emails i received from mailing list and got no reply or anything. Maybe they censored it.) §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 11:05, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

• @Dwaipayanc:, Jayantanth has said Wikimedia India can not help. I'll apply for a passport and will wait for April. No problem if nothing goes well in any front. Tito☸Dutta 19:50, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi Tito - (1) You said: "Thank you for your submission, but the subject of this article already exists in Wikipedia." But there is no such article on Dr. Nizar Habash on Wikipedia.

(2) You asked for more citations, etc. But there are other articles of people in similar status as Dr. Habash with the same number of citations: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Collins_(computational_linguist).

Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.59.245.95 (talk) 17:30, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

Hello Tito! I was hoping you could help me. I have a previously written article on the bonded labor expert and activist Siddharth Kara and have just created an article on another activist in bonded labor and prison reform, Rani Dhavan Shankardass. I would ask one of the users who have assisted me and reviewed my pages in the past, but they don't seem to be active anymore. Please could I trouble you to review the article and provide your feedback? Thank you so much! Martinjonson (talk) 10:44, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

• Done keeping WP:INDAFDKI in mind. Create a table of her books. Good work. Tito☸Dutta 00:19, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

Please could you help me understand how I could abide by the standard norms and the corrections to be incorporated in relation to the page?

Thanks you in advance ,

Rudra john cena claims here that you ar his brother and that you have been sharing an account. This is a serious issue so could you please comment on it. Thanks. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 02:14, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

• Brother/sister (to unknown /newly known people) is a common Indian salutation. It is like "friend" in the western countries. I don't know him. --Tito☸Dutta 02:22, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

Yes, I guessed that's what he probably meant - I've lived and worked in India and it's the same here in Thailand too. Thanks for the clarification. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 03:21, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

Tito, why don't you call me brother? You said it was customary to call people #($*@( and &($*@?@!, which is why you call me that. Hmmmmm. Bgwhite (talk) 05:57, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

Oh really Bgwhite !..... Ok Tito from next time I will surely call you this #(¢¥€@( instead calling you brother. Hahaha. Jim Cartar (talk) 21:24, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

Hello there, I had observed that you have included a notice in this AfC draft. I deeply appreciate your point of view. But there is a catch, after you added the notice I took a quick search with all the possible terms to address the subject. Unfortunately I haven't found any results. I have also gone through the category Indian History to find similar articles, but it is not there. And you suggested to change the Articles name. Can you please provide me some reasons for why should the reviewer must change the name of the article. It will be pretty helpful for both me and the reviewer if you mention some reasons. Thank you for the help. Jim Cartar (talk) 21:33, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
