Welcome! edit

Hi Tyagaraja, and a warm welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you have enjoyed editing as much as I did so far and decide to stay. Unfamiliar with the features and workings of Wikipedia? Don't fret! Be Bold! Here's some good links for your reference and that'll get you started in no time!

Most Wikipedians would prefer to just work on articles of their own interest. But if you have some free time to spare, here are some open tasks that you may want to help out :

 
  • RC Patrol - Keeping a lookout for vandalism.
  • Cleanup - Help make unreadable articles readable.
  • Requests - Wanted on WP, but hasn't been created.
  • Merge - Combining duplicate articles into one.
  • Wikiprojects - So many to join, so many to choose from...Take your pick!

Oh yes, don't forget to sign when you write on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: ~~~~. This will automatically add your name and the time after your comments. And finally, if you have any questions or doubts, don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Once again, welcome! =)

  • You can choose any article to edit or write on, as well as start a new article. After all, that's the concept of a Wiki! You seem to be from India, I think you'll have be interested to have a look at Wikipedia:Notice board for India-related topics. Oh yes, don't forget to sign when you write on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: ~~~~. Anyway, happy editing! =D - Mailer Diablo 22:33, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I asked on the email group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/IndianCivilization for anyone who knew Telugu. Anthony Appleyard 16:25, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Non-free use disputed for Image:Pith.jpg edit

  This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Pith.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

re: Telugu edit

Hi, basically I reverted your edits because I thought they completely changed the origin and classification of the language and that you deleted properly sourced info and added new info which is already mentioned in the article anyway as an alternate theory, throwing off the balance of the article. Sorry, I should have been more specific in my edit summary and paid more attention. Hope this helps you understand my reversion better. Copana2002 (talk) 08:03, 28 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Telugu edit

Telugu language is a Dravidian language. It doesn't belong to Aryan family. Don't change the well sourced content to your own theory. Consider this is my only warning to you. C21Ktalk 11:26, 28 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Gadicherla Harisarvottama Rao 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 Gadicherla Harisarvottama Rao 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.
