Removing comments on article discussion page

It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed content from Talk:Satyabrata Rai Chowdhuri. Please be careful not to remove content from Wikipedia without a valid reason, which you should specify in the edit summary or on the article's talk page. Thank you. --AbsolutDan ^(talk) 20:35, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I do understand. But the discussion was regarding reviews which do not exist anymore. So is there any justification for this comment to be here at all?Sophiesorbonne 05:28, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, even if the work has been completed, the comment should remain "on the record". The only time that information should be removed from a talk page is if it is archived, is a personal attack, or if it is completely off-topic. --AbsolutDan ^(talk) 12:59, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Professor Rai Chaudhuri

I am sorry if you were offended about my comment. My intention was not at all to cast aspersions on Professor Rai Chaudhuri's scholarship nor his standing; I simply felt that the article did not do him justice and was phrased in too vague and unsupported a manner to give a real sense of his achievements. I am well aware of his standing and was concerned that those outside India who do not know his name would not come away with an accurate idea of his contributions. My efforts to clean up the phrasing had that objective. The present article is fine although the addition of a select bibliography would be nice. The previous one duplicated a lot of stuff that had been syndicated around the world, and it was hard to find things in it. best regards --- Rimi 15:23, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sophiesorbonne, if you have some time and resources, how about adding a section to Satyabrata Rai Chaudhuri's page regarding his major theories, findings and books? Thanks

Hi, are you in Oxford still?

Tapan Ray Chaudhuri

Greetings. I noticed that the most common spellings on the web are either "Raychaudhari" or "Raychaudhuri", and "Ray Chaudhuri" is found only once. I suspect Raychaudhuri is correct. Could you confirm and change the article accordingly? Thanks.Amberhabib 06:04, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A new Oxbridge user box

Sophiesorbonne...I am currently in the process of writing a user box for all of the colleges that are part of Oxbridge. This template is meant to replace your current college template. Please take a look at the work in progress and comment on it. My main concerns are college abbreviations and color choice. I am using scarf colors for the colleges. Thank you. - LA @ 17:58, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
