Speedy deletion nomination of Rashi Mal

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Rashi Mal requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 "Click here to 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Anupmehra -Let's talk! 14:52, 26 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Sockpuppet investigation

edit
 

Hi. An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Shikhajaiswal, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.

edit

  Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Shaandaar. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Diff: [1] Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:56, 8 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

File permission problem with File:Sheetal singh Indian Actress.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Sheetal singh Indian Actress.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Amanda (aka DQ) 16:08, 17 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Replaceable fair use File:Picture of filmmaker Varun Mehta.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Picture of filmmaker Varun Mehta.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Train2104 (t • c) 20:14, 26 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Tumhari Sulu budget

edit

Hey, just letting your know that I reverted your edit about the budget. You may very well be correct that the budget isn't correct, especially given the games that have been played by some producers. Wikipedia, however, uses information that is found in reliable sources, and the source for the budget looks like it meets our identifying reliable sources criteria. Given that, we should include that figure absent any other information. If you've got a good source that includes the budget, we can probably go with a range (17 - 20), or if you've got multiple sources probably flat out replace the information (and the sources). Please discuss the change on the article talk page though, and let's get a consensus before making further changes. Thanks, Ravensfire (talk) 02:56, 29 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Shikhajaiswal, Ravensfire is correct, by default, we go with what reliable sources say. Your edit here added content attributed to Bollywoodlife, but Wikipedia's Indian Cinema task force doesn't acknowledge Bollywoodlife as a reliable source for financial information. The 20 crore value is attributed to NDTV, which is generally considered reliable. Changing topics, with regard to your edit here, I have reverted it, because we do not republish subjective declarations like "hit", "blockbuster", "super hit", "flop", "failure", "disaster". To give you an example of why, if a Times of India reviewer declared a film a "steaming pile of crap", surely you wouldn't expect to see that sort of hyperbole in an encyclopedia, because it has no clear academic value. We write from a neutral point of view and that means we avoid using subjective, hyperbolic language like this. Thank you, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 04:29, 29 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

December 2017

edit

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Ittefaq (2017 film), you may be blocked from editing.

The plot summary is maybe too long and detailed, but all important events including the ending have to be included. The text you inserted was promotional, it read as if we wanted to engourage the people who read the article to go and see the film. I'm sure that was not your intention. bonadea contributions talk 10:58, 11 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm TheSandDoctor. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Urmila Matondkar, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. TheSandDoctor Talk 06:33, 19 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
