Ontonagon edits

Please do not interfere with my attempts at expanding the Ontonagon, Michigan article. I have lived in this area my whole life and I think I would know what information is relevant and not, capice? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.128.235.53 (talk) 22:15, 3 June 2013 (UTC)

Thats why probably even the revision of your changes are removed. I wish you had better judgement of what you are trying to do in that page and whole of WP. Amit (talk) 22:28, 3 June 2013 (UTC)

Nawab Mohammad Ismail Khan

That article section on Congress atrocities is factually incorrect and completely based on false insights. As far as the reign of Congress is concerned, please refer to "The Discovery of India", "Modern Indian History" or any such standard text which is factually correct and based on scientific explanation. Please check for sources as soon as you can find, and revert the piece to a scientific and fact based text. Unless you can find some source, do not attempt to make Wikipedia prey to false rumors and propaganda.

I added to the section. Atleast the section now wouldn't look like a propaganda unless some one cites with proper reference material in there. I hope that makes sense? Please sign your comments tooAmit (talk) 20:16, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

Jourdain Society

In your opinion adding information regarding the societies thrice annual bulletin is not constructive!!!!moron — Preceding unsigned comment added by Balindore (talk • contribs) 18:41, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

Jourdain Society , Yes in my opinion it was WP:SOAP and that's why you are banned too indefinitely. Just try to remember that the dictionary that you read is also read by me and I don't have lack of words to use, but I choose not to use such words. Try to be sensible when using my talk page, this is not some article page that you can vandalize Amit (talk) 19:10, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

Procure-to-pay

Hi I just added POOL4TOOL to the list of market leaders under procure-to-pay because the company is, in fact, a global market leader, referenced here: http://www.pool4tool.com/cms/america/footer-links/press/news/article/pool4tool-cited-as-a-leader-by-independent-resea/. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.172.179.73 (talk) 19:01, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

The company website claim cannot be taken as a source and hence was removed and especially because the edit was removing another company name out there. Amit (talk) 19:04, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

3 Idiots

Hello! Your merger proposal of List of awards and nominations received by 3 Idiots was hinting to a wrong article of 3 idiots which is just a redirect of 3 Idiots. I have hence done the corrections and also moved your discussion from Talk:3 idiots to Talk:3_Idiots#Proposed_merge_with_List_of_awards_and_nominations_received_by_3_Idiots. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 03:57, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the Barnstar

Thanks for the barnstar. It is a shame that so many people have to spend time on reverting vandalism. I am not sure that there is any other way to deal with it. Even the best bot probably can not catch everything. Donner60 (talk) 03:30, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

I agree, but also until WP remains free to edit these things will happen and will be a part of WP. Bots seem ok to use but i just use TW for reverts and use the recent changes to monitor. Seem better than BotsAmit (talk) 03:33, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

CSd

According to WP:Deletion policy. if anyone other than the author of an article remove a speedy tag, nobody may replace it for the same reason. If you think the article on Ravi Menon should be deleted, the way to go about it is to useWP:AFD. Please be aware that to pass speedy it is only necessary to show some rational significance, not actual notability , which is judged at AfD. And I see the article on his company was deleted--and rightly deleted-- not because it was unimportant, but because it was written like an advertisement. DGG ( talk ) 03:41, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for pointing that out, I will read the CSD explanation completely later(it was not my CSD though i also wanted to delete the page at that point of time - hence the revert), I did try an AFD now... the page is contributed by the social media specialist of the company itself and is a soapbox. Amit (talk) 03:43, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

Also just putting the correct page link - the ravi menon you are mentioning is pretty notable - the one i am trying to delete is this - Ravi Menon (businessman)Amit (talk) 04:22, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

Mental (2013 film)

I saw that you reverted good edit by IP in Mental artilce. Since the music hasn't been yet released, many new users and IPs are recently adding music section but the IP (which you reverted) removed that and you just reverted those again. Now, I've reverted your edits asuming good faith. I hope you understand the mistake and the reason why I reverted those. Thanks - Tolly4bolly 12:12, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

I agree, my mistake (i was too quick to decide - basing the revert with just a google search that songs existed and did not do more to validate or check), Thanks for correcting my mistakeAmit (talk) 12:34, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

Hey. I saw that you reverted my edit on the cajon de rumba page. Can you explain why you did that? Rock on! Dobbyelf62 (talk) 15:32, 1 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi Dobbyelf62, I agree the cajones de rumba would also produce different sounds depending on where you hit the drum. But this is true for almost every percussion instrument. Hence I reverted it back. Not meaning any disrespect it was not adding much value to the article. Amit (talk) 16:42, 1 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi Mebreyes, Thanks for reaching out to me on my talk page. I noticed you removed demographic data related to languages of Standard German, Levantine arabic and Welsh. This edit was done without proper reason in your edit comments and looks disruptive. Please provide a valid reason of removing content in such edits if possible (though these languages are mentioned in the languages of Argentina article but are also a good summary to be present in the demographics page). If you feel there is a reasonable logic in your edits, please feel free to undo my change with an edit summary/comment in your edit. Also please sign your talk page edits with 4 ~'s which will help editors to reply easily.

Your request for rollback

Hi A.amitkumar. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! INeverCry 18:10, 3 June 2013 (UTC)

Problem with Mandarin Twist in Iron Man 3

The real problem with Killian being the Mandarin is that he did not use power rings therefore he is a violation because this kind of thing the executive producers did has not only kept us from seeing what the rings can do in film but also because this twist has made both Killian a plague to both Iron Man 3 and the Marvel Cinematic Universe in every way and there is no telling whether or not this twist will infect the minds of Joe Quesada or other animators into ditching the official ten power ring version of the character over the evil piece of trash extremis because the 10 power rings each have their own individual power and they are what make the Mandarin more powerful than an extremis. Right now I just hope that Joss Whedon gets Ben Kingsley to reprise his role as the Mandarin properly this time in the Avengers 2 movie and by properly I mean ring powered. Because no one wants the master copy to be overwritten by this selfish twist. I'm serious71.186.180.206 (talk) 03:09, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi, The WP articles are not supposed to be used as talk page(i.e. conversational text on articles is not standard) and not for the purpose of WP:POV (which basically means you cannot push your point of view on any article just because you think so). Also at the same time trying to paint any person in negative light is not encouraged and even if your point is true it needs to be followed with citations and references with notable sources. Hope it makes sense. The pages are consensual edits and any edit that you feel is not correct can be discussed in the articles talk page. Amit (talk) 03:21, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Hydrochloric Acid

What was wrong with my contribution? It's not like it will affect the learning of anyone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.106.51.48 (talk) 04:15, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for reaching out to me on my talk page, the content of your edit was not article worth. Specific comments need to be kept out and conversational text is not allowed in the article space. If any comment, please make them on the article talk page (if you feel they are contributing to the information in the article), These kind of edits are also quickly identified by antivandal editors as editors and if repeatedly done can end up in editor blocks. Though WP is a place where all contributions are encouraged, it also has certain rules and principles in place which need to adhered to. Amit (talk) 04:20, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

United States Navy in World War II

Hi, I made the edits to United States Navy in World War II while logged out. Two previous edits (by non-registered users) had changed the phrase "worst defeat", which accurately describes the attack on Pearl Harbor (especially in terms of the lopsided losses due to surprise attack), first to "best defeat", which is unclear and probably vandalism, and then to "saddest attack", which is not an encyclopedic phrase. The "sadness" of an event is highly subjective and POV. I was simply reverting to the last good wording. If you agree I will change it back. Benandorsqueaks (talk) 19:12, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi, Thanks for reaching out to me on my talk page. My revert was not due to the word sad but due to the word defeat in the edit. My thoughts due to which i did the revert was that - The word defeat has a decisive meaning to it. There was no victory or defeat in the attack (there was no decisive victory, or gain of grounds and more over it was not a battle to give the outcome an objective defeat or victory statement because america was not at war that time). Amit (talk) 19:40, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

(Comment from a random passerby) I don't think that "saddest attack" can be allowed to stand - utterly unencyclopaedic. The argument that this action was not decisive to the war is quite spurious; one can speak of victories and defeats in individual battles regardless of how the overall war turned out. Nor is it relevant that the US was not formally at war, it was still a defeat nevertheless. SpinningSpark 22:33, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

I tend to disagree on a part of your argument here, as I mentioned above i am not fond of the word saddest either - (saddest is a word that is a sort of perception here which i want to remove too). The word defeat I totally disagree. When one country is not part of a war and one of its undefended targets are attacked it is not called "defeat". it is called an attack (say a bomber bombed a arms storage unit of a country is that bombing called a victory?). It is like saying when bruce lee was standing unaware of me and i pushed him from behind and call it saying I defeated bruce lee and not even take a stance on the whole event which included bruce lee kicking my butt later on once he noticed me doing it intentionally :-P (sorry for the silly comparison but I just wanted to tell you what i understand of the action that happened at pearl harbor - please take it in a light note not seriously). and that's the reason I tend to use the words attack as in the article attack on pearl harbor (taking a neutral stance). If there is still something you still differ with we can take it to the article talk page for discussion. Take care, have a nice day. Amit (talk) 23:40, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

I have left a comment, and some sources, on the article talk page. SpinningSpark 01:16, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

Precision rectifier

The edit you reverted, while malformed and incorrect grammar, was not vandalism and is, in fact, a true statement. You may want to consider striking your vandalism warning to the IP. SpinningSpark 22:21, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

It may not sound as a vandalism, but the edit was a spell error because the edit mentions "reverese biased" where as the correct spelling should have been reverse biased (as in forward biased and reverse biased). The text was not a vandalism warning but a non-constructive input suggestion (I never mentioned vandalism in the message (through one of the tools) to the user but I did mention that the edit was not constructive). I have elaborated more in the IP's user page if that has been misunderstood. Amit (talk) 23:21, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, that is just wriggling. The edit summary of your revert clearly identifies the edit as "test/vandalism". The warning template you used in this warning was {{uw-vandalism1}}, clearly intended for use against vandalism edits. We use the "non-constructive" wording rather than "vandalism" on level 1 warnings to make it milder, but it is still a template intended for vandal edits only. If you genuinely believed the edit was not vandalism then you should not have reverted it. We do not revert good faith editors because of spelling errors, we instead correct the error. If you really cannot understand the difference here I will start to doubt that you can be trusted with these tools. SpinningSpark 00:07, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

This was not supposed to be marked as vandalism. It is a mistake for which I apologize. I hope the text I put in the IP page makes it clear to the IP too. Amit (talk) 00:41, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

Reversion of Edit: Kelly Pickler

I would like you to make a case that Kelly Pickler has any redeeming value beyond being used for the purposes of sexual gratification. This is a person who didn't know that Hungary was a country. Please undo your reversion, because the statements that I included in her article were undeniably statements of fact. If you disagree, please explain to me why, in as much detail as you can provide. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.203.138.162 (talk) 01:33, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

You sure want an explanation for my revert. Well it was not valid, seemed like a POV and was totally degrading the personality of the article. (WP being the website where you might want to put your thought only if that is referenced well enough and only in a neutral language). Amit (talk) 02:17, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

Berlin-Warszawa Express

Amit,

I want further explanation as to why you reverted the article I edited. The reason you cited as "I believe the article was better before you made that change," isn't justification to edit an article. I may not like the diction or style of Shakespeare, Tolstoy, or Basho, but that doesn't give me the right to edit their prose or poetry.

The facts I stated are true: that train no longer stops at Berlin Ostbahnhof, and now stops at Berlin Gesundbrunnen and at Berlin Lichtenberg. Do a search on the DB website and you can see for yourself. I couldn't figure out how to edit the list of stops on the right hand side of the article and asked for help, and you just cut it all like it never happened. What gives?

Kochamanita (talk) 01:54, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi Kochamanita, the article space is not the place to ask for help but instead use the talk page please. Thats the reason i reverted your edit. Edits such as these are in good faith but not constructive - And there is nothing called "never happened" in WP :-) . Every history is stored and information is kept until probably an admin wants to strike it out completely make it invisible. I hope you find the talk page helpful to get information about how to edit the infobox. Amit (talk) 02:25, 6 June 2013 (UTC)

mathura

Hi Amit,

Mathura's designation as the birthplace of the Hindu deity Krishna is part of Hindu mythology and should be conveyed as such. May I request that thus be included in the article for Mathura?

Here's a possible edit for the second paragraph: "In Hindu mythology, Mathura is the birthplace of the Hindu deity Lord Krishna at the centre of Braj or Brij-bhoomi. It is, thus, also called Shri Krishna Janma-Bhoomi, literally: 'Lord Krishna's birthplace'."

Thanks very much. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.56.7.95 (talk) 15:08, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi, Thanks for reaching out to my talk page, I would kindly disagree with your perspective here. This is a sensitive statement to make. No religion wants to call its gods a myth. I would try to remain neutral. Research lean on both sides and this is a kind of statement that can be made against any religion and any god's and it might end up being just called conspiracy theory. Amit (talk) 02:53, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Stating religious beliefs as facts is hardly "staying neutral". I would love to see the "research" that you feel exists for "both sides". It seems, therefore, that you're personally offended by this change. That, however, is not justification for undoing the original change. (And yes, I do in fact completely agree with you that stating religious beliefs held by ANY religion as factual information is incorrect.)192.86.100.79 (talk) 18:21, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

Krishna having super powers or being a god is probably what you feel is questionable and i don't blame you or any one for that, but if there is a mention of krishna then mathura is his birth place.Are you saying Krishna is a myth?? - could be, but as i said research indicates both - I would like you to read the literary sources section in Krishna page which has some references and also some references such as , - thats why i said research leans on both sides (and i am being neutral because i dont see any research saying krishna is a myth from you??). I could also give you a thousand hindu leaning sites such as these , but you would just refute them as biased. Also ancient texts such as Mahabharata and Vishnu purana has details about mathura being his birth place. I did notice your change about Hindu's believe - i think not all hindus believe this and i would rather like to change it to a generic "It is believed". Hope that seems neutral enough. I would love to see the citations on the other side of the argument too - about krishna as completely being a myth. I would also suggest you to keep the discussion on the topic and not try to just fill the page assuming what my personal feelings are. Amit (talk) 19:27, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

Also just FYI... this is the edit we are talking about here about mathura being mythological birthplace of krishna... as I mentioned above this has nothing to do with Krishna being god or having super powers. Amit (talk) 19:36, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

"It is believed"? By whom? Certainly not by the overwhelming majority of this planet's inhabitants, and certainly not by the vast majority of historians, Indian or otherwise. That's a weasel word and seeing as how you are so deeply involved in monitoring Wikipedia, you should know better. The confusion is evidently arising from some kind of conflict between your personal religious beliefs (where you, in fact, personally believe that the Hindu deity Krishna was a living, breathing factual person in history) and the general English of the word "mythology", which in that context refers to the collection of scripture and body of text that constitute a religion's narrative. An ideal NEUTRAL compromise would have been for you to change it to something along the lines of: "Hindu scripture indicates Mathura as the birthplace of the deity Krishna..." and NOT link to tabloid-format, non-peer-reviewed, non-academic sources focussed on INDIVIDUALS voicing their personal opinions. A good example would be "INDIA: A SACRED GEOGRAPHY" by Harvard Divinity School professor Diana L. Eck, a thorough and extremely nuanced piece of ACADEMIC writing that you would probably benefit from exploring. 108.56.54.21 (talk) 00:29, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

It is better to take this to the article talk page for further consensus if you feel that my edit is biased. (To add i am trying to read the reference you provided too - seems like a good read) Amit (talk) 00:33, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

I agree that a text that hindu scriptures mention it as birth place of krishna seems more valid. Please see my edit and let me know Amit (talk) 01:33, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

stKi?

You recently undid my edits on the european symposium thingy, (Can't remember exact title at the moment, sorry), i'm fine with that and understand why. However, could you explain to me what stki is? I'm new to wiki and have seen stki listed in many reversions.

Stiki is a tool which is used to see comparisons of edits and revert changes if it is non-constructive (even if done in good faith) or vandal edits. The tool developer usually gives permission only to experienced editors who have atleast 1000 or more article edits (except in some cases he has taken exception if the count is slightly lesser)(i.e. edits on articles alone and not user talk or article talk edits). your edits can be visible in this location . Note the article edit count in that page. Hope that helps. Amit (talk) 00:30, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, that helps! Maybe someday i'll use stiki...

Silly edit

Sorry about that. When that much content is deleted I just assume it is vandalism. My computer wouldn't load the page so I was sort of "acting blindly". United States Man (talk) 03:52, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi, Thanks for reaching out to me on my talk page. That is fine, we do sometimes make mistakes using tools (including me). until it was not intentional all is fine. Amit (talk) 06:04, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Are you sure you want adoption?

Hi,

I noticed you have the adoption template saying that you want to be adopted. Seeing your edits, I'm not sure you would require adoption or not. Are you sure you want to be adopted?

TheOriginalSoni (talk) 05:41, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi Soni, Thanks for reaching out on my talk page, I am looking for adoption by experienced Wikipedia editors or admins who can make me more well versed on Rules, regulations, usage of WP features. Though my number of edits are high and I have gained some experience in WP and its rules, policies, processes etc... I still need some experience in using its features for sure - I don't care much for adminship currently but may be in a few more months. Amit (talk) 06:01, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

I suggest User:OrenBochman or User:Yunshui as possible adopters for you. You can try contacting them to see if they'd be willing to adopt you. If not, I would be happy to take you in for my under-construction adoption program.

Cheers,

TheOriginalSoni (talk) 08:11, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi Soni, Thanks for pointing me to the right direction. I will try to reach out to them and if they seem to have their hands full already i will seek you. Amit (talk) 14:33, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

rookwood pottery

I was the most recent CEO of Rookwood. The owners are purely unethical and dishonorable. It's a well known fact in our region, that I learned by unfortunate experience. Google Martin Wade and Rookwood or lawsuits and you'll see an ugly history. If you believe in honor, you'll allow my edits to stay. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.186.9.207 (talk) 04:45, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi, Thanks for reaching out to my user talk page. The edits you made are not in good faith. Issues with an organisation if having valid references can be added to the article under a probably controversy section and in a proper tone and language with proper references. There is no place for hearsay or personal opinion or talk like language in article space. Amit (talk) 04:49, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

Logged out

Hi Amit. You've made a couple of edits to your adoption page whilst logged out, revealing your IP address (and thus your location and a few other tidbits of information). To preserve your anonymity, I've removed the IP from the visible record - it's generally a bad idea to edit whilst logged out; not only does it reveal where you are, it can also be construed as sockpuppetry in some cases.

Incidentally, if that wasn't you, let me know. Yunshui 雲‍水 18:46, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi Yunshui, I did by mistake log out while editing the adoption school. Thanks for removing the IP information. Amit (talk) 18:52, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

Re: Recent edits to Migrant farmworker

I respectfully disagree. As a compromise I propose changing the page to a disambig, and I have gone ahead and done this though we can always revert if you can make the case why this is the wrong course. --Kevlar (talk • contribs) 18:02, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi Kevlar67, thanks for reaching out to me on my talk page. The only reason i did the redirect was thinking that the page meant foreign workers. but as per your edits you meant migrant farm workers for which this already exist. This page that we both edited should be probably deleted. Please let me know your thoughts. Amit (talk) 18:12, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

Special:GettingStarted

Hi Amit! I was just looking at the edits made to articles served via Special:GettingStarted (they're in some of the WP:BACKLOG categories), and you're one of the more experienced editors who contributed to many of those pages. I was wondering, did you use Special:GettingStarted to find those articles? I'd love to hear what you think about the dashboard, the toolbar on articles, and so on, if you did use it. If you just found those articles via the Wikipedia:Backlog categories, never mind. Steven Walling (WMF) • talk 18:25, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi Steven, I did use the Special:GettingStarted page to do most of those edits, actually it is a bookmark in my browser now. The dashboard is simple and easy to use for any editor who would want to contribute in maintenance pages irrespective of area of expertise. The helps is decent and if made more detailed would have been messier too. But for editors who would want to do maintenance work in specific topics/categories are probably missing a filter option for categories/topics (which to me personally is not a concern though). If there is anything specific within this area on which you needed feedback I can provide the same depending on how much I have used it.  A m i t  ❤  18:53, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick reply Amit, and glad to hear GettingStarted is useful. :) I agree that more ability to filter by category/topic would be helpful to make it useful as a tool for editing maintenance categories. Steven Walling (WMF) • talk 19:13, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

concerning ----- Colquitt County High School

(cur | prev) 02:12, 4 June 2013‎ A.amitkumar (talk | contribs)‎ . . (4,981 bytes) (-126)‎ . . (Reverted good faith edit(s) by 67.77.223.34 using STiki) (undo)

I will read and study how to do this website. I just haven't read all the instructions yet.

This is almost as good as the 1994 Class AAAA Georgia State Championship Football team that Colquitt County High School won.

Here is link that verifies that.

http://www.ajc.com/news/sports/high-school/high-school-picks-for-championship-weekend/nQnmj/

Class AAAAA

Region 1-AAAAA and Gwinnett County prevail again. Twelve of the past 16 champions in the highest classification have come from one of those two areas and this will be the seventh head-to-head matchup between the groups in a championship game during that stretch. Many believed that this year’s Region 1 vs. Gwinnett final would include Lowndes or Valdosta against North Gwinnett, but it didn’t come close to working out that way. Instead we have Colquitt County (which last won the title in 1994) against Brookwood (which won in 1996). Brookwood hasn’t had to play a No. 1 seed in the playoffs and faced only one No. 2 seed. On Saturday the Broncos will prove too strong for third-seeded Colquitt.

Anti-Muslim violence in India

Why have you unreviewed this article? Darkness Shines (talk) 19:06, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Komodo Krimes

Hello A.amitkumar, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Komodo Krimes, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. w^{L<speak·check>} 00:26, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi, Thanks for pointing that out. I agree that any valid assertion of importance would make an A7 invalid.Though I feel the assertions are too vague (but that's obviously different maintenance tags and would make the A7 invalid anyway)  A m i t  ❤  02:27, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Sexual ambiguity in John Dough and the Cherub

Hello Amit!

Please reconsider this reversion. Sex, not gender, is the correct word to use here. And contrary to your commit comment, gender has many more meanings and sex is objective. See these definitions for sex and gender. Also see this page drawn from a book concerning this very topic!

Thanks! Ailanto (talk) 20:40, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi, I agree the term sex more proper sense in this context( or should i say more proper wording as per the book). Amit

Nice userpage!

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... Looks good - but you don't have to keep that adoption userbox there if you don't want to; in my view it detracts from the tidiness of the page a bit. Up to you, of course. Or, if you prefer, I can fiddle with the code so that the userbox appears on top of the image, perhaps in the bottom right. Yunshui 雲‍水 07:24, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, :-) I just couldnt resist copying the design of your user page(one of the best I have seen), I did intentionally leave the adoption tag on the top the page - it might be an eye sore but if you are ok - I would prefer it to remain so until at least I complete my adoption school. Also as you are here, if you dont mind - I wanted some help with my talk page archiving using miszabot, I am not sure what I am doing wrong, I am a plsql person by profession and html is still something I struggle with.  A m i t  ❤  14:12, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Syntax looks okay to me - but you had your archive pages titled as "a.amitkumar/Archive" rather than "A.amitkumar/Archive"; that may well have been what was screwing it up. I've changed it for you; let me know what happens after the next MiszaBot run (IIRC it runs alphabetically, so with your username you should be pretty high up the queue!). Yunshui 雲‍水 18:51, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

By the way, you new signature, whilst eye-catching, is a violation of WP:SIGAPP; you need to lose the font-size:large parameter to make it compliant, I'm afraid. Yunshui 雲‍水 18:55, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the archive setting change, dont know if the bot ran a cycle yet or not - about the signature I did make it medium now - that should be better and in line with WP:SIGAPP as it says cant use large ?  A m i t  ❤  05:17, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

Hey!!! You're saying my userpage isnt the best userpage of all Wikipedia, Amit? I'll get an admin to block you if you say anything like that ;) TheOriginalSoni (talk) 19:20, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Thats why to be politically correct i said "one of the best" (There still could be as many best left out as there are users :P hehehehe... by the way i just noticed your page.. hadnt noticed it earlier when we interacted...  A m i t  ❤  05:20, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

TY

Hi, Amit. Thank you for your comment on my AN/I report. You were spot on with your observations. I do wish an administrator would take some interest in the report, though. Pretty frustrating when they are apparently more interested in piling on at the drama-laden reports than taking care of the more mundane reports like the one I put up. -- Winkelvi ● ✉ ✓ 16:41, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

I think it is too soon to bring such issues to the ANI and thats the reason i mentioned that the issue be resolved in the article talk page itself.  A m i t  ❤  16:50, 28 June 2013 (UTC)
