Request Indian English assistance

Greetings,

I am a published author working on my second novel. There is a brief scene featuring a character speaking English with an Indian accent. I have been using the wikipedia entry on "Indian English" to help me write this section phonetically and idiomatically, but i'm sure I am making numerous naive and inaccurate representations. Would the author of that entry or anyone else on this board be willing to take a look at the short section and provide feedback? It's about 6 sentences long.

Thank you for your time. You can reach me at juxtapozbliss@yahoo.com.

Meh, I quite depressed at the moment due to real life problems so I don't really care what kind of troll it is. It is quite interesting that the banned troll Maleabroad has called you an anti-Hindu! (Saw it in your list of names) Thank goodness you're not that extreme. Gizza^Chat ^© 00:53, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Family tree template for Mahabharata and Ramayana

Hi Gizza, I'm trying out a family tree template to see if we can use it for creating Mahabharata and Ramayana family trees, as Vinwe was asking about here. Check out my sandbox to see what I started. I think it might work. It takes some experimenting to get comfortable with the code, and alot of 'show preview's. Feel free to try it out there, or copy it to your own user space and play with it. ॐ Priyanath talk 03:10, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

List of names of Lakshmi

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article List of names of Lakshmi, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.--Redtigerxyz 10:26, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge for American Born Confused Desi

Hello DaGizza,

I have added a paragraph to the "Identity" section in South Asian American, which explains the term "ABCD". I was wondering if you could take a look at it. Thanks --vi5in^[talk] 16:31, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Indian collaboration of the week news

As mentioned in Wikiproject India newsletter of March 2007, the weekly collaboration of the Indian wikiproject has fallen from its once high feats. This message is to request the users to visit the collaboration page and help rejuvenate it.

The present collaboration of the week is Religion in India. Please go through the talk page of the article to see the proposed changes in the article. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 05:24, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of citations

Would you please take a look at Criticism of Hinduism, where my attempt to add a WP:RS was reverted. The only solution for these contentious articles is to demand high-quality references. I have placed a request for other editors to express their views about this on the talk page for the article. If it is not on your watch list I hope you will visit.

Tamil language copyedit

Gizza, thanks a tone for copyediting Tamil language. -- Sundar ^{\talk \contribs} 10:06, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is everything alright?

Your edit summary said you change the border colours to black because it is symbolic of death. I just hope everything is fine in the world of Bhadani. Gizza^Chat ^© 12:51, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your concern. Everything is more than fine :) and after death comes a new life - Bhadani shall become hyper-active now mostly concentrating on India-related pages. Regards. --Bhadani (talk) 13:22, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have requested a sysop access in Sanskrit wikipedia to make a few changes in edittools, frontpage, protection of pages etc there. You are one of the very few active members there. Please have a look at it. Thanks.--Eukesh 01:52, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Shiva revamp

In working to clean up Shiva I noticed a possible fork growing at History of Shaivism. Would you please place both of those articles on your watch list and assist in figuring out what should go where? Would you agree that the Shiva article is complex in structure and probably needs to be reworked using the same sort of main article methods as we have used on Ganesha? I need help in thinking these things through and not many editors are active on Shiva. Buddhipriya 22:59, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
