Kochi
[edit]Your contribuitions to Kochi related pages are appreciating. But ur contribuitions to vytila page looks like an advertisement. Please go through it.
--Bijuts (talk) 13:20, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
Thanks Bijuts. I checked it. Did you get confused between my contributions and that of others? May be there are problem in my own work too. Why dont you attempt editing on it? Or at least tag the places where you find problems. Always another person's perspective is necessary to make a work clean and perfect. And that is how wikipedia work. So, why dont you put in your effort too. That'll be appreciated. Thanks. Austria156 (talk) 18:49, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
Regions of Kochi?
[edit]Hi. Just letting you know that I started a discussion about this category at Wikipedia talk:Noticeboard for India-related topics#Problem_with_regions_of_Kochi.3F. In retrospect, I should have asked you directly... Best, Pichpich (talk) 23:01, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
Thanks Pichpich. Your concern might be true. Having two different categories for the same thing. But when I created the Category:Regions of Kochi, there was specific reason why I did so. Category:Neighbourhoods of Kochi contains place names which are not really part of Kochi, and Category:Suburbs of Kochi city contains places which are part of downtown Kochi. The problem here is that editors from Kerala mistake 'neighbourhood' for something outside but on the periphery (a notion followed from a neighbouring house, among non-native speakers of English) of the city rather than within the city. Also the word 'suburb' is not really followed by many editor who are non-native speakers of English. So I wanted to avoid the ambiguity. It was in good faith. But if other editors feel that the categories should be merged or that one of them be deleted, then let us go ahead. I would like to see opinions from more editors, and particularly those from Kochi. Anyway, thanks Pichpich for your help. A third-person perspective always help in situations like this. Thanks. Austria156 (talk) 23:14, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
Hi Austria. I was just cleaning up my watchlist wondering why I had User talk:Austria156 on it. Oh that's why! I forgot about this Kochi thing. :-) I think you're in a better position than I am to fix this: you know what you tweaked in the articles and you can request the deletion of the category. And like I said, I don't know squat about the city, or Kerala or (to a large extent) India: I just feel that the category should go because its name is very misleading. Best, Pichpich (talk) 20:19, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
August 15 Budget
[edit]You update in the page of August 15 needs review, especially the budget. As reported by the major section of the media, August 15 is a low budget film, whose budget is 2.5 crore (25 Million) and the print and publicity cost another 50 lakhs (5 Million).
The budget of 7 crore for the film as per your update is not correct, the information given in the source seemed to be inaccurate. The film August 15 is made to compensate for the losses the producers had due to the debacle of the film Drona.
So, request you to review the edit, and update the content from the sources that more reliable.
Thanks,

Sreejith, I do not know what the budget of the film was. Even, I believe, you dont know it. Because neither of us did work on it. You used a reference to prove it was 25 million. It is quite possible that it is true. But you quoted only one reference. I searched throughout the web to find yet another source which asserts the figure and found none. So please try to get one more source saying it is 25 million and we will fix on it.
A word on film budgets. In India there is no way we could ascertain the actual budget of a film. Because there is no formal book keeping. It was true that Drona was a flop (and it was a nonsense movie too). But it is unbelievable to hear that Mammootty did a film free of cost to compensate for the loss of a previous one, when he is nearing the end of his career. (As far as I know him, he will compromise anything, but money). So as a whole your source is unreliable. It has claims which are just rumors. Also, I know that August 15 is a low budget film. So were all the CBI films, and even August 1. And the figure 25 million is more real sounding than 70 million. And I dont want to glorify Mammooty inflating the budget figures of one of his films. But we need reliable sources. So please find one more source and we will fix on 25 million. Until then we have one source saying 25 million and another saying 70 million. One of them makes some unreliable claims. So we have no other choice, but to fix on the other. That's it.
Thank you. You were nice enough to discuss this instead of getting into an edit war. That is appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
My intent was only to have wiki page with a more realistic information, rather than one with someone's fantasy, which have some fancy numbers. Any how, we will wait till we have another source with a different number may be 30 Million or 50 million :).
I guess, we may get some more sources when half-year box office analysis are out. i will leave the numbers as it is.
TTYL.

Do I place an application at Wikipedia:Online_Ambassadors/Apply? Could you please guide me? Thanks once again. Austria156 (talk) 20:24, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

Adimadhyantham
[edit]Hi, saw your comment in Adimadhyantham edit. The show may be a premiere arranged by producer, but will it qualify as film release ? Usually most films will have a Premiere for selected people (not common people) before the release. Even, Wiki describes a premiere as different from release. Isn't it better to consider that show as premiere and its theatrical release as the 'release' ? Anyway, Ranjith promised to distribute the film.
Anish Viswa 02:43, 15 December 2011 (UTC)
- What you said may be right Anish. Until we have a more specific info on a release, we would have all these dates there with unambiguous descriptions. And this is regular in Wikipedia film articles. Thanks for your help Anish. Austria156 (talk) 21:30, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- As per Wiki Infobox guidelines, we should not keep many release dates, recommended is one only. But, we may keep two, the IFFK and the normal release, may be. The premiere we will remove since almost all the films are having premieres before the release. In our set-up we better not consider premiere dates, but you can include it in release and reception section. About the list, we are keeping the theatrical releases only, where the public is buying tickets and watching the film. We don not include premieres or festival screenings. Here we go my general convention and common sense. Adimadhyantham is still considered as an unreleased film by both film goers and media (even Elektra is considered unreleased, even though screened in IFFK last time). In Malayalam Wikipedia also we use same convention, for years. So I am removing it from 2011 list, please co-operate so that there are no ambiguities in the list. Krishnanum Radhayum was considered as a release only by the media and film goers. Whether leased or share basis is only an internal arrangement. Amny films may have done so, we may not be knowing.

- One more important thing. I hope you watched the film. Could you please improve the plot. This may help in more people watch the film once it releases. After all, this is what we film lovers want.

Participation Of the 70 people who signed up for this drive, 40 copy-edited at least one article. Thanks to all who participated! Special acknowledgement goes out to Lfstevens, who did over 200 articles, most of them in the last third of the drive, and topped all three leaderboard categories. You're a superstar! Stfg and others have been pre-checking the articles for quality and conformance to Wikipedia guidelines; some have been nominated for deletion or had some preliminary clean-up done to help make the copy-edit process more fun and appealing. Thanks to all who helped get those nasty last few articles out of the target months. Progress report During this drive we were successful in eliminating our target months—October, November, and December 2010—from the queue, and have now eliminated all the 2010 articles from our list. We were able to complete 500 articles this month! End-of-drive results and barnstar information can be found here. When working on the backlog, please keep in mind that there are options other than copy-editing available; some articles may be candidates for deletion, or may not be suitable for copy-editing at this time for other reasons. The {{GOCEreviewed}} tag can be placed on any article you find to be totally uneditable, and you can nominate for deletion any that you discover to be copyright violations or completely unintelligible. If you need help deciding what to do, please contact any of the coordinators. Thank you for participating in the March 2012 drive! All contributions are appreciated.

Better source request for File:BIS hallmark.jpg
[edit]Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:
You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot (opt-out) 21:16, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Small Industries Development Corporation
[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 Small Industries Development Corporation, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Thanks again for your support; together, we can improve the encyclopedia! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators Jonesey95, Baffle gab1978, KieranTribe, Miniapolis and Pax85.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
