Bangalore name tag in Kannada

Mr Mike, I see that you removed the tag line done by me which shows the Bangalore name Kannada language. Kindly note that Kannada is very near and dear to Bengaloorians and Karnataka people, and it is the official language of Bangalore. I have made the change to show the city name tag in Kannada, please don't delete it.

Orphaned non-free media (File:Pesbig.gif)

Thanks for uploading File:Pesbig.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Werieth (talk) 15:26, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

This is a serious concern . Please look into this matter .

This is to inform you that an admin/editor on Wikipedia is constantly involved in heinous activities, such as edit wars, disruptive editing and removal of perfectly referenced information from large number of page. This is a serious concern and i need to know a solution to this . Please guide me to a solution . Is there any way i can complain about this admin/editor?

His name is "TheRedPenOfDoom". This is a link to his talk page -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:TheRedPenOfDoom. There are a number of warnings on his talk page, including a few serious warnings too . He does not reply to most of them and continues his disruptive editing. If he replies, he does that in an objectionable language.

See this - Finished reading Wiki Guidelines[edit]

I have finished reading the Wiki guidelines and I will be keeping a close watch on all your edits to make sure you are not involved in any war edits as a subject you might even be blocked. I saw someone pointing out that you were involved in an edit war. I am assuming good faith in you and hope you do not take part in any edit wars. Thanks Marcelrios (talk) 15:56, 14 October 2013 (UTC) I discovered that you made some recent changes on prankvsprank, making a few changes. I am still waiting to hear from the website about the reliability of the article so that there is no biased POV here. I suggest that you look into Wikipedia:Systemic bias before you continue with your edits on Wikipedia. Marcelrios (talk) 17:35, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

-huh wah the fuck does Systemic Bias have to do with PvP? Have YOU actually read that? -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 18:23, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

If you go to his talk page, you will find a lot more . Thank You . Please leave a reply.Save Wikipedia!
