Since 2010 is not over, plz do not put any data of 2010 on, because it is PROJECTED, it is not real. It is childish to make it LOOKS better.

You are the one who is making an unsourced data of 2010 I am the one who is changing the data back to 2009 watch carefully. So stop changing the data back to 2010, since there is no real 2010 data comes out, it is all PROJECTED.

hallo sodabottle, i appreciate you pointing out my mistakes correcting Tamil spellings here. thanks.

It is a shame that you continue to publish with limited background, understanding, or care for education in India. I urge you to visit an Ekal school, and understand the organization prior to pasting. In the pasting that you continue to paste on the page, you slander the organization. No doubt, your slant continues to infiltrate the Indian landscape. As a true believe in primary education and education as a whole, I can assure you that you work is harmful. At the end of the day, you continue to do what you do, and though it be wrong, like the way the world works, your extremist views overwhelm those in the middle. So while you have incorrectly posted things like "hindu nationalism" and "hatred" and 'associated with the RSS and VHP,' your voice -- i.e. -- your understanding of the wiki environment is superior to that who run the organization. However, again, go and visit a school, speak to the children who currently receive funding and will no longer receive funding due to your slander. There are ample media material and studies that go for and against any side. And you have chosen a side, rather than make an accurate decision. And so youve pasted. And so, your 'hate' is appreciated. Please do your research prior to editing the article. 66.194.2.9 (talk) 21:09, 20 December 2010 (UTC)Peacewithyou —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.149.134.168 (talk)

Hello sodabottle,

I want to ask you about one change that I wish to do. In Tamil Nadu, on third para "Its official language Tamil has been in use in inscriptions and literature for over 3000 years." The reference for this is Tamil language. I need your approval so that on agreement of common interests their arises no differences of opinion and so. Share whatever you'd like to say, but stay on point and see it as neutral. I am here for NOT overpraise but, fill in important missing important facts that should reach people. Thanks.

The edit is ok, but make it 2000 years. The agreed upon age for tamil is around 500-300 BC. Anything more will be controversial.--Sodabottle (talk) 08:58, 22 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Did you remove the following lines from Amlan Dutta page? If yes, why?

" He has lectured in the United States of America, talked about Mahatma Gandhi in Australia, and lectured about Rabindranath Tagore in China. He has talked about economic development and education-challenges at many forums in India and abroad (viz. Japan, Denmark and the West Indies)."

Appears to be my mistake. I was cleaning up the article by breaking it up into smaller sections. While moving the contents into Biography section, i seem to have missed these lines. My apologies. I have reinstated the content now.--Sodabottle (talk) 09:24, 23 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi sodabottle. Just one help. Check this out, http://toolserver.org/~soxred93/pcount/index.php?name=December21st2012Freak&lang=en&wiki=wikipedia Here below the namespace total - Months count and Top edited pages are listed detailed very neatly.

Check this out, http://toolserver.org/~soxred93/pcount/index.php?name=Keyan20&lang=en&wiki=wikipedia This is mine. What should I do so that this looks like similar to that. Can you please help out in detail what to do.

Create this javascript page - [1] with a commented out section like <!-test-->. Once you create it, the monthly edits/top article edits will appear in your page.--Sodabottle (talk) 10:24, 23 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, thanks for your support in the discussion :-). Template:Kanchipuram district has been saved. By the way, will it be possible for you to get the list of members who functioned in the Governor's executive council for the period 1857 to 1947 and their portfolios. I wish it would be great if the details could be added to the articles pertaining to each Governor. Probably, article on each Governor could have something similar to the "Cabinet" tables we created for Raja of Panagal and other Chief Ministers. A list of member of each Governor's executive council and the portfolio the member held would be great.-The Enforcer_{Office of the secret service} 12:25, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

APPEAL TO YOU Reg: [BRAHMAN PUJAN] , [UNIVERSAL PRAYERS] . written by [Naresh Sonee] On wikipedia , These above two pages are far older than the present article [Brahman] References of above titles are also available on New York site - Meanwhile, Can your good selves in Wiki Indian Community re-create a precise pages on [Naresh Sonee] & his book [Brahmand Pujan] – [Brahmaand Pujan] . However, Sonee is the writer of this book [Brahmand Pujan] written in 1999 . registered with Government of India- HRRD. Details of the registration is provided here on http://brhmaandpujanbook.tripod.com/ . More than sufficient, news and reviews are there on http://brhmaandpujan-news-reviews.tripod.com/ Since 5-6 yrs, for one or the other reason pages of [Naresh Sonee] & [Brahmand Pujan] are faced by communal bias from outside India so these articles over and again get deleted here in Wikipedia for minor reasons. However, many hits of - Naresh Sonee reflects on google search engine also. So, I request Wiki Indian community to kindly come forward and generously help these two pages to grow, as I am fed up to fight my case alone here [left] and moved out long back. Meanwhile, such an important info/issue on ‘Indian literature’ which adds & spell ‘new meaning /dimension’ to Brahman -should it stay lost else ignored? Your community panel has to judge at last. Myself, will not be on Wikipedia, for the same i apologise, but- pls. help these two pages to get reinstalled, reap, sow and grow, if you too feel so, I appeal to do this munificent favour.

I have updated this article, if you have time, can you look into it please ? Thanks Kanatonian (talk) 23:43, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi sodabottle. I feel like changing the present lead image here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Chennai_Montage_New.png) --> to this (http://ta.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%AE%AA%E0%AE%9F%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%AE%E0%AE%AE%E0%AF%8D:Chennai_montage.JPG). The second one is more apt and rightly touches every section in a good way. It resembles better and quality is good. I understand that first one is recently updated one (Nov 2010), but it lacks something. I would like to make a change. Share your concerns as your view/input.

Ungal Vettu Pillai (talk) 12:32, 7 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

start a discussion in the chennai talk page. the current montage was arrived at after quite some discussion, so it would be better to change it after another discussion. As for myself, i have no preference to either. both look ok to me--Sodabottle (talk) 12:35, 7 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I stumbled upon the following link associated with one of page under my page protection and just released ( at : http://www.google.com/search?q=User%3APatelurology2%2FThe+White+eagle&btnG=Search&hl=en ) as searched under Google and showed Huggle/Whitelist as a page where I was listed ( searched by control F function on a cryptic page). Seems this is a list of contributors who have been deemed to be non-vandals. This page and associated pages need translation in many languages and you can dissemenate this info.

I have searched a lot and got only 32 no. of universities worldwide, teaching Tamil. I think there will not be more universities. If the universities have Tamil department, definitely they will include in their website, which will be available in Google. Most of the universities has Indian language department, but does not teach Tamil. I have searched a lot and got only this much number of universities. So i think we can include the links in Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rajaram Sarangapani (talk • contribs) 08:48, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for help with the page. will call for more help before page launch.

Patelurology2 (talk) 13:01, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

that page is already in mainspace, so take care to add references or someone might come along and delete it--Sodabottle (talk) 13:07, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, its really nice to see you as a Mentor over here. I can already see 3 Indians on the list (including me). Have a good time! TheMike •^{Wassup doc?} 19:10, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!. Yep its actually payback time for me. When i was a noob, people were incredibly helpful (at that time i dint know how newbies could be bitten here). So i am now returning the favour--Sodabottle (talk) 19:13, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm actually very new over here compared to you. Though I have had a registered account for 4 years, I started serious editing since August last year. My tale is quite the opposite: I was never welcomed, and my first barnstar came just two days back. So I guess I'll have to make sure the newbies are better welcomed.!

Just wanted to drop by to say thanks for correctly editing the Strange Meeting Wilfred Owen page. I am new to Wikipedia editing, so I pretty much blundered the format. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shan1209 (talk • contribs) 14:40, 15 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I am finding disruptive edits by the user Mr Spaceman on the Tamil language article under "Geographic distribution". This is particular reference to Tamil spoken by small minorities in Gujarat and Manipur. Even though references have been provided the lines are deleted.

It appears "experts" are having a field day blocking anything they want without verifying the truth and appear they dont read the "discussion".

--தொழில்நுட்பம் (talk) 14:14, 18 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Personal insults and sarcasm will get you nowhere. Did you read the discussion at all?. I had raised the question, what states we can add, because we cannot add every state that has tamil speaking minorities (because all states in india have tamil speaking minorities) And i provided a link to the list of tamil speakers in other states. You are fixated on gujarat and manipur and now insulting people who are trying to reason with you. --Sodabottle (talk) 14:28, 18 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

And now you are edit warring logged out. Thats a sure way to get yourself blocked.--Sodabottle (talk) 14:30, 18 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

What do you mean by "personal insults and sarcacism"? Manipur is a small state and yet has a good presence of Tamil culture. The cross border trade with Burma is controlled to a large extent. So is business Gujarat, where Tamils are in good proportion. You are using a comparison by whole population. Scientific? Have you visited the country Bangladesh? Yes the hidden secret is the forgotten Tamils there. There is a sizeable number and do some research (outside of the Internet) - I am sure you will do that. OK, I dont care if I am blocked. Wikipedia is supposed to hold the truth but obviously we have a stumbling block of too many "experts". The discussion forum had the links. You are free to block anyone because I suppose you are one of the owners of Wikipedia. It is your right and not mine. But that does not hide the truth. If you are insulted, excuse, but you are successful in blocking the truth. Congrats. --தொழில்நுட்பம் (talk) 16:32, 18 January 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by தொழில்நுட்பம் (talk • contribs)

I wasn't convinced of the slur status. Still have doubts about that.--Wangond (talk) 15:55, 18 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"slur" is probably a stronger word for what it is. it sure does have negative connatations, especially after the "madarasi hatao" campaign by the sainiks in the 50s, but if you want more opinions/second look raise a discussion in the india noticeboard.--Sodabottle (talk) 16:08, 18 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

You seem to have removed my external link entry to this page. Its a link to the details of his composing career.

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kannur_Rajan&action=history

Can I know why it was deleted? I'm pretty new to editing in Wiki so help me out here

replied in your talk page. (basically violates WP:EL as it seems you are affiliated with the website)--Sodabottle (talk) 03:32, 20 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I understand your concern. Please do me a favour. Can you take a moment to click this link. http://www.malayalasangeetham.info/php/masterIndex.php. Please read the first para. This site is "not for profit" site. We are not earning anything by running this site. This site basically gives out information about the musical artists in Kerala. This site is for those who wants to know the details of a long lost song. This is the most comprehensive databasesite in any language in India. The owner of this site spends his own money each year to run this site. There are numerous dedicated music lovers who maintain this site during their free time. I'm just one of them.

I'm posting the relevant links to the WIKi pages so that 'more relevant' information about that artist is available. For e.g if you click on that link it gives you the details of collaboration with other artists, no of song for each year..etc etc....

Thats all I'm doing

thanks
