INCINE coordinator

Hi! I won't be able to perform this role anymore. Hence for the time being i have added your name as the coordinator of the project. If you wish to reprise your role, you would be welcome. If not, you are still at your own will. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 04:33, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

On the FLC

You can collapse all the comments by me, except the one concerning the image of Nargis. All those comments are appropriately addressed.--Dwaipayan (talk) 05:08, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

Being the nominator, I'm not supposed to do that. It's the task of reviewers to collapse them so as an indication to show that their concerns have been resolved. Vensatry (Ping me) 12:54, 11 January 2013 (UTC)
I guess you can do that if the reviewer permits you to do so, and you can indicate that in the edit summary. Anyway, not a major problem. The list seems to meet the criteria now. I have supported it. --Dwaipayan (talk) 15:38, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

Indian cinema task force

Hello Vensatry. You might not know me but I am really sorry to hear that you are withdrawing from coordinating the project. I just want you to know that you have done such an excellent job and it's very true that there are some people that are not appreciative of your work. I hope that you are feeling better and to let you know that not all Wikipedians are bad people. We are in the end, human beings as well and I want you to know that I am one of the supporters of your work. I really wish that you are well.

From a normal Wikipedia member.

Yours faithfully, Kotakkasut. 18:05, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the appreciative note. Glad to have you in the project. Vensatry (Ping me) 14:00, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
You are most welcome my friend! I would like to inform you that I am retiring from Wikipedia after five good years as I realised that my contributions are not welcomed as well. It's good to be in the project while it lasted though. I wish you all the best! Yours faithfully, Kotakkasut. 17:39, 21 January 2013 (UTC)

Dispute Resolution Noticeboard

Hi. I've been volunteering at WP:DRN, and I noticed that the discussion on the dispute over Cinema of Andhra Pradesh, which you were involved with, seems to have ground to a halt. The other editor involved proposed a solution and asked for your opinion a week ago. Perhaps you would like to rejoin the discussion so that hopefully it can be resolved?

Cinema of Andhra Pradesh

RTPKing asked me on my talk page what to do since the DRN was closed without action—basically, no DRN volunteer participated enough to keep it active. I recommended an RfC. However, I'm worried that if the RfC is created by either of you, that the other will object that the wording isn't "fair". Would you mind if I tried to craft a neutral RfC on the matter?

Sivaji's Karnan for GA nomination

I have spent months developing the article on Sivaji Ganesan's Karnan to its present status today. As I believe it is capable of receiving a GA nomination, can u pls approach any experienced reviewer to start reviewing it? Maybe u yourself can do so. Kailash29792 (talk) 13:39, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Being the top contributor, you can go ahead and nominate the article for GA. Once you nominate it will be reviewed by someone. There are a lot of questionable sources used in the article. So check for replacing them with reliable sources before you proceed with GAN, as there are chances that it might fail. Vensatry (Ping me) 13:46, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
I listed the article here, as a means of nominating if for GA using this syntax: Karnan (film) (talk | history | start review) Kailash29792 (talk) 14:47, 27 January 2013 (UTC). But a bot removed it, edit summary said "maintenance". wat is the right way? ---- Kailash29792 (talk) 14:47, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
That's not the right way. Seems now you got it. Vensatry (Ping me) 09:42, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
Indeed I got it, but I am not good at finding anyone to review the article. Perhaps u know of someone? who i can approach? Kailash29792 (talk) 16:31, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
It's been just four days. You cannot expect every article to be reviewed on day one. Wait for sometime, someone will definitely review it. Vensatry (Ping me) 18:08, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

I am not asking for u to officially review the article, but pls see if it is fit for GA nomination. Kailash29792 (talk) 09:19, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

You should have probably checked that before nominating the article for GAR. Also see my comment above regarding the sources used in the article, you seem to completely ignore that. Vensatry (Ping me) 11:01, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

authenticated source

though Facebook is definitely not a reliable source, celeb's/notable ppl's pages can still be used i thought. this source [1] which is from film historian Mohan Raman's official facebook page is probably the only online source for the box office collections of Sivaji Ganesan's Karnan during its release in 1964. can it still be used, despite being an FB page? ---- Kailash29792 (talk) 09:37, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

ok, wat about Sulekha? is it reliable? i strongly believe it is. ---- Kailash29792 (talk) 01:24, 16 February 2013 (UTC)

Having an article in WP establishes it's notability. Vensatry (Ping me) 08:36, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
The FB page looks like a paper cutting of some Tamil daily. FB can used as a self-published, primary source per WP:FACEBOOK, if the subject is directly related to it. In this case it's different, so it's hard to come to a conclusion. Vensatry (Ping me) 08:47, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

WikiCup 2013 February newsletter

Round 1 is now over. The top 64 scorers have progressed to round 2, where they have been randomly split into eight pools of eight. At the end of April, the top two from each pool, as well as the 16 highest scorers from those remaining, will progress to round 3. Commiserations to those eliminated; if you're interested in still being involved in the WikiCup, able and willing reviewers will always be needed, and if you're interested in getting involved with other collaborative projects, take a look at the WikiWomen's Month discussed below.

Round 1 saw 21 competitors with over 100 points, which is fantastic; that suggests that this year's competition is going to be highly competative. Our lower scores indicate this, too: A score of 19 was required to reach round 2, which was significantly higher than the 11 points required in 2012 and 8 points required in 2011. The score needed to reach round 3 will be higher, and may depend on pool groupings. In 2011, 41 points secured a round 3 place, while in 2012, 65 was needed. Our top three scorers in round 1 were:

  1. Colorado Sturmvogel_66 (submissions), primarily for an array of warship GAs.
  2. London Miyagawa (submissions), primarily for an array of did you knows and good articles, some of which were awarded bonus points.
  3. New South Wales Casliber (submissions), due in no small part to Canis Minor, a featured article awarded a total of 340 points. A joint submission with Alaska Keilana (submissions), this is the highest scoring single article yet submitted in this year's competition.

Other contributors of note include:

Featured topics have still played no part in this year's competition, but once again, a curious contribution has been offered by British Empire The C of E (submissions): did you know that there is a Shit Brook in Shropshire? With April Fools' Day during the next round, there will probably be a good chance of more unusual articles...

March sees the WikiWomen's History Month, a series of collaborative efforts to aid the women's history WikiProject to coincide with Women's History Month and International Women's Day. A number of WikiCup participants have already started to take part. The project has a to-do list of articles needing work on the topic of women's history. Those interested in helping out with the project can find articles in need of attention there, or, alternatively, add articles to the list. Those interested in collaborating on articles on women's history are also welcome to use the WikiCup talk page to find others willing to lend a helping hand. Another collaboration currently running is an an effort from WikiCup participants to coordinate a number of Easter-themed did you know articles. Contributions are welcome!

A few final administrative issues. From now on, submission pages will need only a link to the article and a link to the nomination page, or, in the case of good article reviews, a link to the review only. See your submissions' page for details. This will hopefully make updating submission pages a little less tedious. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

These two links might be helpful to you—WP:IRS and WP:RSN. Vensatry (Ping me) 16:59, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
In that case, I also believe IndiaGlitz is reliable. I don't have evidence to prove this, but many good articles like Paiyaa, Shriya Saran, Chiyaan Vikram, R. Madhavan and Karthi use it as a source. ---- Kailash29792 (talk) 14:44, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Indiaglitz borrows through other reliable sources, sometimes. However, Behindwoods is reliable, especially for South Indian cinema.
Arjann (talk) 07:08, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
Neither of them are reliable. Just because other articles use them they are not reliable. Some use these sources non-controversial claims. Vensatry (Ping me) 07:26, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
What I am saying is not an argument, but believe it or not: the ultra-reliable source IBN Live borrows largely from Indiaglitz (eg: [3], [4] and [5]). This I think shows its reliability. ---- Kailash29792 (talk) 08:11, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
Not every article on these websites were written by their authors. These kind of sites have been including articles from other sources as well; in this case they have attributed the original content provider (Indiaglitz). Vensatry (Ping me) 08:39, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
I don't know if IndiaGlitz and Behindwoods are finally accepted as reliable though i find them good enough, but do both of u say that Indian articles should use "million" instead of "crore"? there's been a discussion about that of late. interested can take part here ---- Kailash29792 (talk) 04:51, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
