Mangla Rai

Dear Wiae, You have just marked my article under criterion RD1 (Blatant copyright violations). However there is hardly any paragraphs which indicate plagiarism. Therefore I request admin to review the article without any prejudice and remove the TAG. Regards, Yavarai (talk) 17:53, 10 October 2016 (UTC)Yavarai[reply]

@Yavarai: Several paragraphs in the article were directly copied from http://publishing.cdlib.org/ucpressebooks/view?docId=ft6n39p104&chunk.id=0&doc.view=print. Copying content from other websites is almost always contrary to Wikipedia's copyright policy, a link to which you will find below.

An administrator will hide the offending revisions and then remove the tag once they have finished doing so. Thanks, /wiae /tlk 19:02, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks and Regards, ````Yavarai

@Zackmann08 Thanks for your suggestions and guidance. I shall certainly follow it. Thanks and Regards, ````Yavarai

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Yavarai, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Mangla Rai has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. /wiae /tlk 16:47, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

October 2016

Hello, I'm Zackmann08. Thank you for your recent contributions to Hari Narayan Singh. I noticed that when you added the image to the infobox, you added it as a thumbnail. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:

|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]

Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:

|image=SomeImage.jpg.

There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as |caption=Some image caption. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks! Zackmann08 (^{Talk to me}/_{What I been doing}) 16:59, 14 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Zackmann08, Thanks for your suggestions and guidance. Now I'm taking care of it. Regards--Yavarai (talk) 09:53, 29 May 2017 (UTC)Yavarai[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for April 3

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Upendra Rai, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Star News.

Ways to improve Namvar Singh

Hi, I'm Zakhx150. Yavarai, thanks for creating Namvar Singh!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. After surviving the AfD earlier you have clearly expanded this nicely. However, it is not entirely neutral. Please avoid using peacock phrases like "important books", "eminent progressive"

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Zakhx150 (talk) 17:15, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Zakhx150, I have edited the article once again as per your suggestions. I thing there is no subjective sentence in the mentioned article now. Regards--Yavarai (talk) 18:03, 28 May 2017 (UTC)Yavarai[reply]

@Timothyjosephwood:, Thanks for your prompt review of my newly created article.

Proposed deletion of Shrivardhan Trivedi

The article Shrivardhan Trivedi has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Sources are not reliable all passing mentions of the subject in question, He is only known for the program he anchors and all the coverage relates to the show, this does not pass WP:CREATIVE or WP:JOURNALIST there is also WP:OVERKILL.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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. FITINDIA 09:15, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Fitindia: I have said it on your talk page whatever I have to say in this regard. I just simply made a page about a person whom I still find notable. I have cited all the required sources.

Nomination of Shrivardhan Trivedi for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Shrivardhan Trivedi is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shrivardhan Trivedi until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. FITINDIA 13:15, 14 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have added some more information as source to prove the notability of Shrivardhan Trivedi as news presenter, cine artist, social worker and producer of a film. I have cited letters from Amir Khan and Rajkumar Hirani. These letters are testimonials of social work being done by Shrivardhan Trivedi through an organisation Literacy India. It is the achievement of a trainer like Shrivardhan who motivates and trains underprivileged kids like 'Rahul' to get an opportunity to work in film 3 Idiots. He is not only a news presenter of 'Sansani' only as you have mentioned. Rather he is a cine artist and trainer also. He has played a major role in film 'Lakshya' also. It is the popularity of Shrivardhan that he has got imitated by comedians like 'Kapil Sharma' and 'Krishna-Sudesh'. He is also working as Film Producer and recently produced a Bhojpuri film Dekh Ke. I think these references or quite-enough to prove the notability of Shivardhan trivedi.--Yavarai (talk) 17:45, 14 June 2017 (UTC)Yavarai[reply]

@Fitindia: In keeping with mentioned facts please consider withdrawing the nomination for deletion of Shrivardhan Trivedi and removing the AfD tag from Shrivardhan Trivedi.--Yavarai (talk) 16:38, 14 June 2017 (UTC)Yavarai[reply]

@Yavarai: Its up for discussion and if other editors feel it should be kept it will be kept.I see you have added new sources but it will be a bit premature for me to withdraw my nomination at this point. FITINDIA 18:14, 14 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Fitindia: Ok, as an old JNU student I stand for the truth and truth must prevail. Regards--Yavarai (talk) 18:42, 14 June 2017 (UTC)Yavarai[reply]
