New deal for page patrollers

Hi Zafarcreation,

In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:30, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

Former cast

Hi there, I'm noticing this a bit late, but re: this edit from November 2016, "Former" is not a valid sub-section of a TV cast list. Per WP:TVCAST, we typically divide cast into Main and Recurring cast subsections, because regardless of whether someone left, we still have an academic interest in knowing whether they were part of the main or recurring cast. We don't discard people simply because they're no longer on the show. That might be appropriate for the series' personal website, but not for an encyclopedia which intends to track the most important aspects of the entire series history. So I've removed that section. In this edit I've also incorporated into the Cast section the real-world information about Shinde's departure and Poorey's pick-up of the role, because that's what we're supposed to be doing in TV articles. If you're not aware of what the goal is, please see List of Millennium characters. You'll no doubt find the same structure, with thorough in-universe character descriptions as well as real-world information about casting, critical response, etc. That is what the aim is, not just a skeletal wall of bullet-points. Thanks. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 00:02, 30 December 2016 (UTC)

Regarding the recent edits on the page List of songs recorded by Shreya Ghoshal

Hi

I would like an explaination about your recent edit on the page, where you added a song to the 2017 list without mentioning any movie name, composer, lyricist, co-singer or any reference.

Please explain.

Ayush Gupta 20:29, 2 March 2017 (UTC)

Dear @Ayush Gupta At Wikipedia: Please see My explanation at (Unknown films) section on this link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:List_of_songs_recorded_by_Shreya_Ghoshal#Unknown_films Zafar24Talk 22:31, 2 March 2017 (UTC)

Gross

Hi there, re: this edit, that content really grossed me out. It's such a bizarre decision to include content about the media 1) praising Drashti Dhami's figure, and 2) comparing her to another actress, like we're comparing chickens at a market. Even this just comes across as really gross, like we're wearing a trenchcoat when we write it. Please consider the 10-year value of content you are adding, and please ask yourself whether or not a legitimate academic question is being answered by the inclusion of the content. Will scholars in 10 years ask, "how did the media describe her figure?" Will they ask, "What did single Indian males consider their ideal mate in appearance?" I also note that the article on Hrithik Roshan doesn't mention him being a lust magnet, nor does it describe his chiseled form and drool over his muscles. As part of our efforts to be neutral, we need to consider things like whether or not we're objectifying women. Thanks. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 04:15, 5 June 2017 (UTC)

Potential ethnic-warring at Raees (film)

Sorry, but these edits Do not appear constructive to me. Not only do they not appear consistent with Template:Infobox film instructions or WP:FILMCAST, but you didn't even get the alphabetizing correctly. I note from your user page that you self-identify as Pakistani, and your movement of Pakistani actress Mahira Khan to the front of the list is indistinguishable from ethnic-warring, which is not tolerated at Wikipedia. Editors who engage in India/Pakistan disputes very often wind up being blocked by Wikipedia administrators, so I strongly recommend​ you avoid any behavior that could he construed as provocative in this area. Thanks. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 05:55, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

@Cyphoidbomb: Dear, Please stop judging me. I am not here to fight for my country as I am a Indian Entertainment lover. You should see positive things on my Wikipedia page that I just love Indian content so much! I believe in Equality so I did that edit because people in Wikipedia always write the Actor first then Actress name but I believe that we should write alphabetically cast. Zafar24Talk 13:26, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

@Cyphoidbomb: Mahira Khan, Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Shah Rukh Khan according to this M comes first then N and then S. Is this Albhabet arranged correctly? Thanks for reminding me that I am Pakistani so I removed the so called flag. Zafar24Talk 13:33, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

@Cyphoidbomb: Here is the proof that I am not fighting for my country, please see that edit that I made https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/786646247 Alia Bhatt is not a Pakistani actress but A is for Alia so that was the reason I made that edit. Please note that I made that edit before and just after edit of page of Raees film. Zafar24Talk 13:45, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Well, I apologise, I think I could have been more clear. I don't believe that you are actively engaging in ethnic warring, I'm pointing out that your edit, which was not consistent with established community preferences, could be construed as nationalistic. Similar issues come up at films, where Hindi is weaseled into place before Telugu or Tamil, or at a Telugu/Tamil film, when occasionally Tamilians will arbitrarily force their ethnic label to the front. By editing according to community guidelines, you distance yourself from such appearances. I too have noticed how by default, many casual editors will list the male lead first, and yes, subtle sexism is probably at play to some degree, but we should be ordering cast the way the producers do, and that way the sexism is on their shoulders. In the Infobox, we use the film's billing block to determine "starring" credits and order. If that's not available, we use onscreen credits. For the cast section, we typically use onscreen credits, with some discretion to omit minor characters. As to your second post, according to general rules of alphabetisation, we typically order by surnames. Thanks and regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 13:50, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

Not to belabor the point, here are some examples of arbitrary reorderings that hint at ethnic warring: [2][3][4][5]. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 15:08, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

POV nonsense

Please tell me why this content is completely inappropriate at Wikipedia, so that I don't have to waste my time lecturing and/or sanctioning you. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 05:18, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

@Cyphoidbomb: See my last edits, I changed some wording. Is that work? Zafar24Talk 06:13, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

@Cyphoidbomb: Dear, sorry about my edits. I am little weak in English grammar when it comes to edit Wikipedia.Zafar24Talk 06:39, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

The issue here is not about grammar, the issue is about the phrasing of content that sounds like Wikipedia is drooling over Drashti Dhami. "Dhami is the most loved television actress and has a crazy fan following." "Most loved" is an opinion. We don't present opinions as facts. They always have to be qualified with an attribution to a specific voice. "In a 2010 list, Times of India described her as the #1 'Most Loved Hindi Television Actress'" or whatever the case may be. Encyclopedias don't have opinions, they just report information. When you say "Dhami is the most loved television actress" 1) it sounds like Wikipedia thinks this, instead of a specific source and 2) it lacks sufficient context. Who says this? When was it said? Are we talking about in India or the entire world? If in India, do we mean Hindi-speaking actress? And lastly, you need to watch the slang. Describing something as "crazy" is inappropriate tone for an encyclopedia. "She has a sizable fan base" would be closer, but surely all celebrities have sizable fan bases. It's an unnecessary statement that doesn't serve any clear academic purpose. "Crazy" suggests that Wikipedia is surprised at how big her fan base is, which again is problematic, because encyclopedias don't have opinions or emotions. Please remember we are not here to promote any subject, and all content must ber written from a neutral point of view. If you have questions, I'm happy to help explain things.
