Shared IP adresses

Thank you for the information on shared IP addresses. These are things we know. We do not have the IP address of the college, and we are not authorised to know it or search for it unless there are clear cases of sockpuppetry. If sockpuppetyry is discovered, the Checkusers will confirm it, but will not publish the IP address. Thanks you. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 01:09, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

Deadlines

I am quite sure that the WMF did not impose deadlines for the 'submission' of new articles to Wikipedia. I will mention this to the WMF and they can discuss it with the directors of the Indian education porogramme when they meet today. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 01:22, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

Just started with ESS. Trying out things in my sandbox. I used the shortcut buttons and I could provide a link...but i cant do the 'reference' It says...your reference cant be shown as you do not have a 'reflist' template. but i did use that template. still not working.

Tell me what I can do about it. Thanks.

I would love to help you but since you did not sign off with the four tildes, ~~~~, I have no clue as to who you are. Debastein1 (talk) 22:13, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

Review please!

Hey, could you review the final draft of my article that ive put up in my sandbox? Any feedback / comments will be appreciated :) thanks :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shailaja.k (talk • contribs) 19:05, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

Hey Shailaja, sorry for replying so late. I checked out your article. It looks pretty well, I would comment on it but it looks like it has been taken up by experts and has been inducted into two Wikiprojects, namely, Wikipedia:WikiProject Statistics and Wikipedia:WikiProject Mathematics. Check out the discussion page, Talk:Dummy variable (statistics). Feel free to contact me if you have any queries. Also when you are leaving a message on somebody's talk page, please remember to sign off with four tildes, i.e. ~~~~, so that the person understand who you are.

Regards,

Your friendly neighbourhood Campus Ambassador

Potpourr!^ ^

I just reverted a big huge addition by User:Potpourr!^ ^. When leaving a message on xyr page, I saw some wikilove you left there, and it looks like you're a campus ambassador for a program that Potpourr!^ ^ is in. Since the problems with Potpourr!^ ^'s edits are very fundamental (basically, it was a massive addition of info based primarily off of a blog), you or the online ambassador might want to give some more direct follow up. I'm available to answer questions as needed, but since you already have the ambassador structure in place, it might seem more friendly and appropriate coming from you (rather than from the person who just basically undid his homework assignment). Qwyrxian (talk) 04:21, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

Hey Qwyrxian, thanks for the wonderful help. We the ambassadors have recently been swamped with a huge burden of work and hence it is taking us some time to go through their articles. It is lovely that you left me this message, makes my job a lot easier. I will get back to her personally and inform her why it was reverted. But can you just do me a favour, if you feel the article only had formatting issues and no copyvios, could you just move it to her user space as a sandbox, then I could tell her to work on the formatting there. Kudos, thanks for the lovely help again. --Debastein1 (talk) 04:58, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

The problem is that it wasn't a new article, it was an existing article (Indian black money) that xe just added to. And copying probably wouldn't help, because the problem most of it was "verified" by a blog, not a reliable source; thus, xe will really have to start over again from the beginning with a good source. My guess is that this should be possible, given that the topic is pretty big and our coverage is only moderate. The problem is that sources can be hard to find if you're just searching for them by hand, because lots of different terms are used. Qwyrxian (talk) 05:22, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

Yes, I am aware of the issue you speak of. I shall inform the user personally as soon as I am able and explain to her the reason of her revert and that a blog is not a reliable source. However, if you wish, you may leave a message on her talk page to inform her that you reverted the edit. I will explain to her in any case, but if you feel the need you may also inform. Don't worry, I am on it. --Debastein1 (talk) 05:26, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

Article Review - Risk management in Indian Banks

Hey Debu!

I went through the article and it's really very well written.

I've a few suggestions to make it better:

Although the topic or title is "Risk management in Indian banks", it's not really going along with the content. I mean the content is quite generic and there are two options here, either you change the title to "Risk management in Banks", etc or start putting more content related to Indian context.
Put more facts/figures and examples like profit/loss made by banks due to risk management, cost of risk management etc.
Add more diagrams etc.
Add more references

Apart from the suggested changes, I liked the way you presented the formulas etc.

Keep the good work going!

Happy Editing :)

Cheers,

India Education Program

Hi there! Things do not seem to be improving and are causing great concern for our Western editors who are spending hours cleaning up. Please visit Wikipedia talk:India Education Program and see the latest issues. I really do feel that the Campus Ambassadors should be checking these articles, and not the editors in the USA and the UK. I just wish I were in India right now and could be of more help. Many thanks, and happy editing! --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 16:49, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

Copyvio detection

Look for the signs (these are only guidelines)

Perfect English from a creator who is most probably not a native speaker.
Check the editor's user page for country or locality in userboxes. If it's an IP user, check the 'Geolocate'
Long blocks of text
Text in grey boxes (paragraph indents imported with copy&paste from other web sources.
No inline citations
No Wikilinks
References only to sources that cannot be verified online, books, textbooks,etc. Perhaps the people at WP:RX have a copy of the book.
Article name does not match page content
Sentences not in logical order (could be sentences from different sources)
Paragraphs not in logical order (could be paragraphs from different sources)
Images too large (click image to see copyright notice, WP:FUR, and creator)
Images not made by creator
Images too good to be true (check Commons for possible duplicates)

Physical checks & process

Copy a sentence and paste it into Google surrounded by quotation marks ("text here")
If positive results (sometimes some words might be grey, but still check)
Copy the URL from the Google entry and paste it into the Duplication detector
Copy and paste the URL of the Wikipedia page into the Duplication detector
Duplication detector will list text that is identical in the Wikipedia and in the web site
If positive, tag the article with {{db-copyvio}} (Preferrrably use Twinkle
Place the copyvio warning on the user's talk page (Twinkle does this automatically)

NOTE: Only use the {{db-copyvio}} template if all or most of the article is a copyvio. If not, remove the copied parts of the txt until the article is clean.

why? why? why?

Deba, why is my article which i wrote in my sandbox on Indian Money Market jumped to articles for creation??? Rashmi.baruah (talk) 00:47, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

Hey Rashmi, firstly congrats, just saw the good news that it has been accepted. It was on Articles for creation space because I nominated your article to that Wikiproject because I felt your article was just too good to be sitting quietly on the sandbox. It deserved to be on main space. It seems, I was not alone in thinking that. Your sandbox was reviewed by a dedicated team of WikiPedians who have found it to be worthy of main space and have moved it there. Your article is no longer in your sandbox, instead it is now here, Money market in India on main space. Congratulations.

Loan waiver

I just saw this article. It seems to me that this article is a complete assembly of phrases and sentences from multiple sources. Perhaps you could check out our policy on WP:COPYVIO. - all the complaints about IEP don't seem to be getting heard. I won't delete it just yet. Thanks for your help. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 12:40, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

Hey Kudpung, I'm extremely sorry that I haven't been able to get in touch with you and help clean up the mess at all these couple of days, as you can see on the top of my talk page, I am currently on Wikibreak on account of my exams. I promise to become much more active once they get over. Thanks for contacting me with this article. I can offer you three suggestions:

If you feel its better to try to improve this article than delete it, I can move it to the userspace of the user who created it, i.e. User:Saianurag and ask him to edit it further
If you want, this article does fall under my subject purview, I can move it to my userspace and work on it
If you feel, that there is no way to improve this article due to the amount of plagiarism involved and its best to delete this, then be my guest and delete it.

I shall check out WP:COPYVIO in detail as soon as I can, I have to get back to my studies. I only came only as well, am kind of becoming a WP:Wikiholic and that WMF kinda sent out a mail to the Ambassadors to check out the current issues being talked about. Do tell me how I can help anyway you would like. And on a personal note, I'd love to meet you, you've taught me a lot about Wikipedia. I hope in the future, I can refer to you for your wonderful advice. Thanks again,
Debastein1 (talk)
"Lets make this world a better and more informative place" 18:39, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

Hi. The article cannot be userfied because it is a copyvio. Material copied from other sources are not allowed anywhere on Wikipedia.I was hoping you would be able to make the user see sense and blank the page. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 01:26, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

Ok, so, I've taken a copy of this article on a word document. I shall sit with the user and explain and show him how it is a copyvio by going through each sentence with him. There is no point in keeping this article on Wiki any longer, it might do irreparable damage. Do you want me to mark it for deletion or would you do the honours and do the needful. P.S.Can you just leave a small msg on the user's page?? Preferably, something that is not too aggressive like {{subst:Uw-copyright-new}}--~~~~ should do. I don't want the user to feel discouraged.

And I am terribly sorry that I'm not that active currently because of my exams. I shall inform you and do my best to cleanup the articles as soon as the exams are over.

"Lets make this world a better and more informative place" 03:49, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

Hi Debastein. Kudpung asked me to look at this article. It was basically OK. The phrases were pretty common and none of them long. I fixed it in the one or two places where it might have exceeded that. It was also a little disorganized so I fixed that too, wikified it, and formatted the citations. I've left a note on the student's page to let them know. Best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 13:09, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

IEP

Hi. I'm just letting you know that we're still having to block users and delete their pages. See the IEP talk page for details. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 05:16, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism now

Vandalism to various student list pages has now begun by IP users who geolocate to India. I suspect that thee are students who are not logging in.

Would CAs please keep these class list pages on their watchlists and provide us with a single generic IEP student list that we can import into our raw watchlists.

If the vandalism continues, the IPs will be blocked and this will affect all computers on those networks. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 09:39, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
