Chandrika Balan

Dear Sir

Mr. C G Balan informed me that he had already uploaded the picture. Can you now kindly move it to the article to appear on the right hand box or do I have to do anything else. Kindly guide.

Your patience and cooperation is greatly appreciated.

Thanks and regards. Panank (talk) 02:36, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Old question

Chandrika Balan

Dear Sir

Some time ago an article was created for Chandrika Balan. I wanted to add her picture to the article and had asked you as to how it is to be done. You had replied that the photographer can directly load the picture and I had conveyed the same to the photographer who is Chandrika Balan's husband. He has an account with Wiki but could not copy and paste the picture and had asked a question. Usually your reply comes per return but he says he could not get any reply. Could you advise me the method by which he can upload the picture so that I can communicate it to him.

Your help and cooperation is greatly appreciated. Thanks Panank (talk) 11:08, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

Images cannot be copied and pasted to Wikipedia, but if he is the copyright holder and is willing to release the image under a free license, he can upload it to the Wikimedia Commons via their Upload Wizard. That should provide step-by-step guidance. Huon (talk) 11:45, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

Panank, do you know the photographer's username or the page where the uploaded image can be found? You can move it yourself if you like, if it has already been uploaded. Someguy1221 (talk) 04:02, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Unsure if the (right) article is really submitted

Hi, I have submitted an article for approval Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Theory of the Modernization of Islam and get two warnings under the submission field: Warning: This page should probably be located at Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/sandbox (move). Warning: A page with this title exists. Please make sure that this proposed article does not already exist or that it does not need to be moved to a different title.Trond Øverland (talk) 05:26, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Trond,

When the template is added, it appears in the listing for review. Moving from sand boxes is a problem. There have been some recent technical changes and not all of the bugs have been worked out. I have moved your article to Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation. There will be a link in your sand box. Thanks for your submission. -- :- ) Don 05:54, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please take a look at the existing article Islam and modernity and consider if your draft might be better as part of that article. Roger (talk) 12:31, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That seems to be a copy of your draft. It doesn't cite any reliable sources, reads like an essay instead of an encyclopesia article, and is unduly laudatory, probably due to a conflict of interest. It would need to be rewritten almost entirely. Did you have any specific questions? Huon (talk) 08:17, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Review of Article about Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP)

I have submitted an article about the Open Charge Point Protocol, but it was declined for lack of notability. I have added several more references, but it still has not been accepted. I assume it is still about notability. The OCPP only exists for around 2 years and is rapidly gaining popularity in the world of electric mobility as it is the only vendor-independent protocol for connecting charge points with back-office systems. For this reason operators of public charge point networks often require the use of OCPP to avoid vendor lock-in. So, the topic is definitely notable in the electric mobility world, but how can I make it notable enough to pass the Wikipedia notability guidelines? Any suggestions appreciated, ˜˜˜˜ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fbuve (talk • contribs) 07:18, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Articles in general magazines or websites about motoring or "green living" for example - aimed at the general public rather than the industry itself - would go a long way to establish notability. Notability means the subject has come to the attention of the general public, that people outside of the industry itself know about it. Roger (talk) 07:42, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Atteeq-Ur-Rehman

Hello, I have created article to review. still awaiting. There are some of the references and links are not well formatted. I am new user. Would you please help to resolve the issues with the draft. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Retajsaima (talk • contribs) 09:43, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There is currently a massive backlog of unreviewed submissions, and it takes about two weeks for an article to be reviewed. In the meantime, I can help with the technical issues of tidying up the references, but the draft's main problem is that the references are all primary sources - Atteeq-Ur-Rehman's own research papers. To establish his notability, we'd need significant coverage in independent sources, such as newspaper articles or published reviews of his academic work (written by others!). I don't think I can help you much with finding such sources beyond a Google News search or the like. Huon (talk) 12:19, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Sayed Ihsanuddin Taheri

Respected friend,

I am writing to know about this that how this article was deleted based on?

Wanted to add more information as he is appointed "Government spokesman" in the Government of Afghanistan. The news in the following is the reaction of Afghan government on Pakistan where the government spokesman Sayed Ihsanuddin Taheri announced that the government of Afghanistan bans all pakistani newspapers.

The News, Pakistan's International NewsPaper http://www.thenews.com.pk/Todays-News-13-17645-Afghanistan-bans-Pakistan-newspapers-over-Taliban-propaganda

The New York Times Paper http://www.nytimes.com/2012/09/23/world/asia/kabul-bans-pakistani-newspapers.html?_r=0

I wish we could republish the page as he is an official of the government of afghanistan and is a need to have him online.

In this case, I need your supportive comment,

Regards, Kalim

I cannot read the deleted article, but apparently it had been proposed for deletion, the proposed deletion hadn't been contested for ten days, and it was deleted. The reason given was "not relevant for Wikipedia". Proposed deletions are a low-hassle way to get articles removed when doing so is uncontroversial, but they are equally simple to overturn. I've notified the deleting admin; He may consider this inquiry as "contesting the proposed deletion" and undelete the article, or you could recreate it yourself. However, the newspaper articles you linked to don't provide the "significant coverage" of Taheri we need to establish his notability´. If notability cannot be established as soon as possible, the article will be deleted again via more formal processes (see WP:Articles for deletion) - and those don't allow recreation. As I said, what we need is significant coverage about Taheri, not just a passing mention while he does his job as spokesman. An entire paragraph about him is the bare minimum, I'd say, the more the better. For example, when was he appointed to his current position? What did he do before that appointment? Where was he educated? When was he born, and where? The sources you provided answer none of those questions. Huon (talk) 12:08, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Atteeq-Ur-Rehman

There is no more sources because It is newly introduced branch of engineering by Atteeq-Ur-Rehman. It is acknowledged by the International Medical Geology Association (IMGA). Is it really necessary to put the references here other than his paper stating this new branch of engineering (these are published internationaly). or I can remove them at all? and is there will be problem in its accpetance in wikipedia with the current draft?? Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Retajsaima (talk • contribs) 12:50, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If it really is the case that it's a new branch of engineering that nobody else has written about, then I'm afraid it's not notable and can't belong in Wikipedia. Yes, it is necessary to add references, because Wikipedia is (or at least is supposed to be!) a reflection of what is already known in those reference. --Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 13:45, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Chandrika Balan image, redux

Your answer : Panank, do you know the photographer's username or the page where the uploaded image can be found? You can move it yourself if you like, if it has already been uploaded. Someguy1221 (talk) 04:02, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

Sir/Madam : I had called and got his username. How do I upload it to the article of Chandrika Balan? Last time someone advised that Wiki will do that. Kindly guide me. thanks.Panank (talk) 16:30, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

An example image.

The easiest way would probably be to tell us the username or the image's name so we can find it, one of the more experienced users can add it to the article, and you can afterwards have a look at how it was done. Alternatively, the picture tutorial gives a basic introduction to images on Wikipedia. At its most basic, code like [[File:Bad Title Example.png|thumb|right|An example image.]] will display the image (automatically scaled to thumbnail size) at the right of the article, with a caption of "An example image." Of course you'll have to substitute the correct file name (the name under which it has been uploaded). You can also add it to the infobox, but the code is slightly different: You'll have to add lines like these:

|image = Example.jpg

|caption = Example caption

Of course you once again need the correct file name, but not the "File:" prefix. Huon (talk) 17:11, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sir In response to your reply , I give the username of the photographer who said he had uploaded using the following link http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page. His username cgbalan. He said he has given the title as " to include in the article Chandrika Balan" with the picture.

Trust you will do the needful as this is pending for a long time. Your help and cooperation is greatly appreciated.

Thanks and regards Panank (talk) 18:55, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I've added the image to the infobox. I don't think it's large enough to look good on its own, so it's better to put it there. Huon (talk) 19:12, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
