May 2015

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Scottish English, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, and ideas—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Mutt Lunker (talk) 12:22, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

June 2015

Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Scottish English. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Mutt Lunker (talk) 12:37, 1 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Regional varieties of Scottish English

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Regional varieties of Scottish English, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Regional varities of Scottish English. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

Proposed deletion of Regional varieties of Scottish English

The article Regional varieties of Scottish English has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Per talk page, WP:OR supposedly about dialect/language but largely talks about accent, confuses Scots with Scottish English and with a sole reference which does not provide support.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

WP:OR Indian English vowel tables with some very questionable realizations

If you restore your WP:OR tables on Indian English and Regional differences and dialects in Indian English one more time, you will be reported to the administrators. WP:BURDEN of providing reliable sources is fully on you, it is the fourth (or sixth? Depends on how you count) time you're asked to provide them (Indian English: 1, 2, 3; Regional differences and dialects in Indian English: 1, 2). See how patient I am? Maybe too patient...

The fact that your reverts take place a few weeks/months after the removal of the OR table, rather than immediately after it is irrelevant - it is still disruptive. For instance, I've never, ever heard Indians front the FOOT and GOOSE vowels to, respectively, [ɵ ~ ʊ̈] and [ʉː], or raise the THOUGHT vowel to [oː] (though both of these features may be sometimes heard in the Indian South African dialect, but that is a variety of South African English).

Other questionable realizations include MOUTH as [æʊ̯], FACE as [ɛɪ̯], GOAT as [əʊ], NURSE as [äɾ], TRAP as [a], DRESS as [e] and KIT as [iː].

So, once again, you can restore your table only if there are reliable sources to prove that it is accurate. Mr KEBAB (talk) 10:45, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This has been happening to me a lot lately

Although it's a bit different since you're a veteran editor. Regarding your edit to States and union territories of India, you reverted me without an edit summary. I can't think of a single edit I've ever done where it would be appropriate to revert me without explaining what I did wrong. RunnyAmiga ※ talk 19:24, 14 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Indic script

- Please do not add any Indic script, to any of our India related articles, as you did at West Bengal, and several other articles, as this contravenes WP:NOINDICSCRIPT - Thank you - Arjayay (talk) 14:00, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In that case is there any other way to use of Indic script ?

Okay may be not in Headings but what about within the content ? Gairike (talk) 14:05, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A section on Etymology, is the logically relevant place for it to be included - Arjayay (talk) 14:09, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Okay then one should add an Etymology section on them and add the native names. Perhaps you could help me on this matter.

If you have any idea how to properly execute Etymology section from History especially of West Bengal,Tamil Nadu & Maharashtra then please share. Gairike (talk) 14:40, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like I should have notified you about our WP:NOINDICSCRIPT policy here in your talk page. Then again you should have checked the edit summary where I've explained it or asked me before reinstating your edits. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 14:55, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind what happened in the past Gairike (talk) 15:07, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry Gairike, I have no expertise (or interest} in Etymology - and I have enough to do in any case! - best wishes - Arjayay (talk) 15:28, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Here's an example on how to do it. This is another. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 16:30, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Do not add Indic script like you did here and here. Disregarding policy even after that much discussion (above) is nothing but disruptive. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 08:57, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The policy says nothing about the use of Indic Script while transliteration is given.And if use of indic script in such manner as I did is disrespecting then use of transliterated names instead of native script is insulting. Gairike (talk) 20:28, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The policy blanket bans use of Indic Script in the article leads and infoboxes. It gives no pass to claims such as yours. And transliterations in the form of IAST and IPA are allowed. See President of India, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Delhi, etc - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 09:22, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

April 2022

Your recent editing history at West Bengal shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
Why are you removing IPAC and IAST , these are present in other articles. WP:NOINDICSCRIPT says "International Phonetic Alphabet pronunciation guides, which are more international" See WP:CONSENSUS in the talk page first. Fylindfotberserk (talk) 13:10, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have changed IAST of infobox as the info you've provided me earlier regarding states like Tamil Nadu & Maharashtra. I hope the changes need to revertion. Gairike (talk) 13:16, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Discuss here and get consensus. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 13:17, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Why is Poschim Bongo outside the parentheses? Isn't it the Bengali native term for the state? - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 13:21, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it was a mistake I changed it, see if theire is anymore problem now. Gairike (talk) 13:28, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Why ? You gave me some examples I checked them all and now I changed it just like the way ut has been done in every other states. You informally sort uniformity so I made it just like other states. Gairike (talk) 13:24, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Poshchimbongo should come before the bracketed IPAC conversion like this → West Bengal (/bɛŋˈɡɔːl/, Bengali: Poschim Bongo [ˈpoʃtʃim ˈbɔŋgo], so that we know that it is converting the Bengali term. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 13:35, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps it would be better if Poshchim Bongo is replaced by abbr. WB just like in Tamil Nadu Gairike (talk) 13:38, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Why not follow the Delhi GA status article? It has the Hindi, Urdu and Punjabi transliterations alongwith the IPA pronunciations. West Bengal is not pronounced as [poʃtʃim ˈbɔŋgo] in Bengali, Poshchim Bongo is. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 13:52, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delhi is not a State but Tamil Nadu & Maharashtra are States so it would be better to follow them. Gairike (talk) 13:56, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your statement "West Bengal is not pronounced as [poʃtʃim ˈbɔŋgo] in Bengali, Poshchim Bongo is" is wrong since Poschim Bongo is the IAST of পশ্চিমবঙ্গ & [poʃtʃim ˈbɔŋgo] is the IPA. Gairike (talk) 13:59, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delhi is a GA article and any settlement would do. Also Poshchim Bongo is a redirect and should be mentioned in the article. is wrong since Poschim Bongo is the IAST of পশ্চিমবঙ্গ & [poʃtʃim ˈbɔŋgo] is the IPA - Where is the IAST then and IPAC is converting what? Without the IAST, you'd be inferring that in Bengali 'west' is pronounced as poschim and 'Bengal as bongo. Read the my comment properly perhaps. The case here is not similar to Tamil Nadu, which is also the native term. The difference is more like Germany FA article which mentions the native term Deutschland which in turn is also IPAC converted in the lead. I'm moving this comment section the the article talk page. And do not modify content without consensus (which you have been doing). You'll be reported. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 14:37, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I read your Germany reference but Latin alphabet is the native script for German language but since indic script cannot be used so it's better not to use IAST as it undermines the native languages. Gairike (talk) 14:43, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
