Speedy deletion nomination of Sangeeta Kalpataru

Hello Kuzhali.india,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Sangeeta Kalpataru for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Vanjagenije (talk) 21:11, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

Your addition to Ralph Waldo Emerson

Hi! And welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed your recent addition, from a speech by Swami Vivekananda, to this article. Further down in this article are several paragraphs, with three references (you may see the cites in the article):

• Emerson was introduced to Indian philosophy when reading the works of French philosopher Victor Cousin. In 1845, Emerson's journals show he was reading the Bhagavad Gita and Henry Thomas Colebrooke's Essays on the Vedas. Emerson was strongly influenced by the Vedas, and much of his writing has strong shades of nondualism. One of the clearest examples of this can be found in his essay "The Over-soul":...

As you can see, there is already well established and well referenced material concerning the influence of Bhagavad Gita and the Vedas. And also, there is a discrepancy; Emerson was reading Bhagavad Gita before his trip to Scotland and England. For these reasons I have reverted your edit. Please discuss your edit on the Ralph Waldo Emerson talk page for more views on how to use your material. - Neonorange (talk) 17:16, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments.

From Swami Vivekananda's lecture ,What I understand is he claims Emerson to be influenced by Gita - The one which he got from Carlyle.

& This site also refers about the same. http://www.worldculture.org/articles/EmersonCarlyle_Tillotson.pdf

In this book, Swami Vivekananda in India: A Corrective Biography; By Rajagopal Chattopadhyaya; page 310 (preview google book) the author states, 1830 onwards Emerson’s journal references to Hindu religious texts. And the assumption here is he came across Ram Mohan Roy’s works.This book also refers that after 1832 he received Bhagavad Gita as a gift from his friend Carlyle.

So from my understanding, his primary influence is Gita. In the article we recorded it to be Vedas.

Emerson was reading Bhagavad Gita before his trip to Scotland and England - I am not exactly sure about the year he received the book.This is my mistake. Receiving Gita from Carlyle should come after this para I think. "Emerson toured Europe in 1833 and..."

--Kuzhali.india (talk) 18:14, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi!. I'm not saying anything you added is wrong, just it needs to be discussed on the Emerson talk page at Talk:Ralph Waldo Emerson, where other editors can join the discussion. - Neonorange (talk) 19:32, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the guidance --Kuzhali.india (talk) 10:39, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

WP:RS and WP:UNDUE

Hello. Please stop adding trivia about Vivekananda all over Wikipedia. The sections you add are irrelevant (see WP:UNDUE), poorly written and unreliably sourced (Prabuddha Bharata is not a reliable source by Wikipedia standards). Also please do not add information about Tamil translations of books; this kind of information is utterly irrelevant as well. --Omnipaedista (talk) 17:43, 9 August 2014 (UTC)

irrelevant?? Please site where irrelevant details were added? Unreliably sourced? Prabuddha Bharata! I understand from your words that I need to add more details while giving Prabuddha Bharata as reference in the below format? Can you please clarify? {{cite journal}}: Empty citation (help) --(talk) 17:08, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Swami Ranganathananda Stamp 2008.jpg.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Nachiar Tirumozhi, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Dwaraka. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Kuzhali.india, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Nachiar Tirumozhi 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 a cited source. 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. Doug Weller talk 17:32, 25 February 2016 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Ⓩⓟⓟⓘⓧ (talk) 14:25, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the update. But the problem is not with me. Someone wants to keep the the wikipedia page Lingam without any modifications to reflect their own views I guess.. If we see the history of the page the user reverts most of the changes of other users as well giving different reasons.Instead of asking for more references, resources the changes were removed. Someone can look into it. Kuzhali.india (talk)

Hello, I'm Omni Flames. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Jalakandeswarar Temple, Vellore without explaining why.

I moved the same content under the title 'Location' which is more appropriate to understand. Kuzhali.india (talk)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:AndalFromTamilWiki.jpeg

A tag has been placed on File:AndalFromTamilWiki.jpeg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. – Train2104 (t • c) 23:25, 16 August 2017 (UTC)
