[edit] WB Map
Sure, Antorjal. png is fine. My laptop crashed, so I can take a look at the svg only after my new one arrives. Thanks, deeptrivia (talk) 17:49, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] WB map fixed
Hey, the svg map has also been fixed, thanks to Planemad (talk • contribs). So now, the locator map and the district map - both are perfect. Now, before going for an FAC, certain stuffs need care. First, there should be NO red links in the article. I'll work on some red links, please try to cover others.Then, I have doubts on some section. Especially culture needs some work. I doubt if folk culture has been covered perfectly. Let's review the section. I will also ask Ragib (talk • contribs) and ppm to have a look. P.K.Niyogi (talk • contribs) should be a great source also. Again, History needs a re-check if something important has been omitted/ something has got undue coverage. One more thing, the daughter article Culture of West Bengal is virtually non-existent! Have to work on it, at least make it somewhat respectable. Whatever we wish to say about the culture (usually Bengalis brag about their culture!) we should write there. Then, as and if necessary, gist can be shifted to West Bengal. Daughter articles are very important in case of FACs. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 18:12, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. I was really not aware of DYK. While going through your page I started browsing and then suddenly decided on an entry. Please see my nomination of Birbhum District for Portal West Bengal. I want to improve on that. Any suggestions? -- P.K.Niyogi 05:22, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

I got a book on Bengali music in my search for Ananta Das Gaswami, and it has a whole essay on Nidhu Babu. I'm hoping we can collaborate so the article can have more sources. Ashibaka tock 17:29, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] thanks!
Many thanks for your kind words. You might speak as if I'm some sorta success, but believe me there are far greater ones around here. One dude has written close to 60 FAs and another has contributed more than 500 featured pictures! Its just satisfying to work with such brilliant people like yourself from all over the world - the might of WP and the internet! If I can ever be of assistance, just give me a buzz.

[edit] I'm Back! (For a Little While)
Sorry, I'm getting busier and busier nowadays. But I do make sure to watch one Satyajit Ray movie every now and then. By now, I've seen all of the following: the Apu Trilogy, Pratidwandi, Seemabaddha, Asani Sanket, Sonar Kella...PLUS Parash Pathar, Jalsaghar, Devi, Teen Kanya, and Kanchenjungha! (After seeing Sonar Kella, I decided to watch the other films in chronological order...:)). Ray's works are all really, really interesting (though of course I can't say anything less about Shyam Benegal!).
Whenever I get the opportunity, I'll try to add stuff to the corresponding pages of each film. I'm also learning Bengali (my father is absolutely certain that I'll speak it fluently by the time we finish watching our entire collection of Satyajit Ray movies). For now, though...aami maathro olpo olpo Baangla bolte paari! --Kuaichik 02:22, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Molecular and Cellular Biology Wikiproject Newsletter
|
The project main page has gotten a facelift!
|
|---|
| When people visit the project, the very first thing that they see tends to be the project's main page, and with this in mind, the main page has been completely overhauled. To enhance readability the various "goals" sections have been merged, and a detailed "how you can help" section has been added. To increase accessibility for more established members, the links to any resources that were in the main body text have been moved onto the navigation bar on the right. Finally, the whole page has been nicely laid out and given a nice attractive look. |
|
New project feature: peer review
|
| I'm proud to announce the addition of out newest feature: peer review! The MCB peer review feature aims serve as a stepping stone to improve articles to featured article status by allowing editors to request the opinions of other members about articles that they might not otherwise see or contribute to. |
|
Project progress
|
|
The article worklist
|
| We’ve had quite a bit of progress on the worklist article in the past month. Not only has the list itself nearly doubled in size from 143 to 365 entries, but an amazing three articles have been advanced to FA status, thanks in great part to the efforts of our very own TimVickers! Remember, the state of the worklist is the closest thing we have to quantifying the progress of the project, so if you get the chance, please take a look at the list, pick a favorite article, and improve it! |
|
Collaboration of the Month
|
| Last month's Collaboration of the Month, cell nucleus, was a terrific success! In one month, the article went from a dismal stub to an A-class article. Many thanks to all of the collaborators who contributed, especially ShaiM, who took on the greatest part of the burden. This month's Collaboration of the Month, adenosine triphosphate, isn't getting nearly the attention of its predecessor, so if you can, please lend a hand! |
|
Finally...
|
| The project has a new coordinator, ClockworkSoul! The role - my role - of coordinator will be to harmonize the project's common efforts, in part by organizing the various tasks required to make the project run as smoothly and completely as possible. Many thanks to those who supported me and those participated in the selection process. |

[edit] Map request
Hi! Can you please do a map for Birbhum District? The article has taken a really good shape. I saw the map of east and west Midnapur u did. A map of Birbhum would help it become a selected article in West Bengal portal. Thanks.--Dwaipayan (talk) 10:23, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Birbhum map
Thanks for your offer on the Birbhum map. Please wait a few days before you do it. I am working on a hand drawn map and shall put it up within a few days. It would be crude compared to what you do. So, when I put it up, please help in improving that. -- P.K.Niyogi 06:43, 25 October 2006 (UTC).

Hi Antarjol, I just got a message from someone that the Orissa portal would be deleted unless it is improved. If you have some time, you may proceed.

[edit] WB FAC
Hi! Put West Bengal in FAC. Express your views in the nomination page. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 17:18, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Urgent Help Needed
See the comment "I see no pages in the printed sources which are citated" in WB FAC. Could you please quote the page numbers of "Mukherji, S.J. (1984). College Botany Vol. III: (chapter on Phytogeography). Calcutta: New Central Book Agency" that you used to write the Flora and Fauna section. As you have used a chapter, you can give the page range. See the way page range has been given in citing specific chapters of West Bengal Human Development Report 2004.
However, if you have used several chapters and several pages, it will be better to use Harvard reference style. See the way citation number 11 (...while hundreds of thousands of Hindus fled into the city...) has been used in History section of Kolkata. In Harvard style, the book is listed once in the "Reference" section. And multiple page citations can be done in multiple instances. See Wikipedia:Harvard referencing and Wikipedia:Harvard citation template examples if you need. Thanks a lot.--Dwaipayan (talk) 19:23, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sabita Chowdhury
Someone has prodded the Sabita Chowdhury article (which is now about the singer). I contested the deletion, but since all the info from the previous article has been removed, very little remains. You said on the AfD she was notable, could you check it out and establish notability for her?--Cúchullain t/c 18:42, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wonderful
Wow! Great job with all those district maps. Had to do a lot of stuffs for West Bengal today. Loads of citations! Huh. Almost got mad! LoL. Let's see what will be the response in FAC. The problem is the size of the article has increased much, one of the factors being all those citations. So far the FAC is ok-ish.People did not use to be so particular even in recent past. Good that people are finding out so many faults...the article is becoming better and better. FAC of Kolkata was easier and of Darjeeling was a bit tough! Lets see how WB goes. Bye! --Dwaipayan (talk) 20:30, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi, I need some help on whether or not a transcript of the session of the Indian constituent assembly I found online is a correct one. I have refereed to it at the end of the Jana Gana Mana talk page and it doesn't seems to contain any reference to a "hindi version" being adopted. If u can shed any light on the authenticity or lack thereof of the transcript, that'd be great. Thanks,--ppm 00:36, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Interesting topics and...
Please see the comments by Pradiptaray (talk • contribs) in West Bengal FAC. The second point, mentioning rural/traditional foods/beverage is very important. We missed it altogether in the article. In the article Bengali cuisine there are discussions on pithe and some other foods, but there is no article/discussion on paantabhat or morobba or mahua. If you have some time, could you please try to build some stubs on them?
I shall also try. But there are more pressing problems, as mentioned by Tony, that is Tony1 (talk • contribs). I had requested SandyGeorgia (talk • contribs) to have a look through the article. He looked and has incorporated some inline comments. Have to address those. Shmitra (talk • contribs) is also helping out. --Dwaipayan (talk) 07:26, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
- As a matter of fact, I was waiting with trepidation what Tony would say. He is a magnificent copyeditor. Anyway, per his suggestion, I have requested some editors to have a go at the article for copyediting purpose. Sandy, Sundar and ppm has started helping. But it's tough to find out a "word-nerd". There was Nichalp (talk • contribs), but he is on a wikibreak now :( Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 15:45, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Bijon bhattacharya.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Bijon bhattacharya.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use.

[edit] Image:Achipur temple.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Achipur temple.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --– Quadell (talk) (random) 19:14, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
