== Image upload to Misplaced Pages Commons == |

Hello. I have uploaded my photograph of Nasreen Pervin Huq to Misplaced Pages Commons as you suggest, and you are free to use it. I am afraid I don't speak Bangla even though I lived in Dhaka, but you are welcome to translate the entry if you would like, or at least use it as a starting point. The information (and spelling of her name) is from her c.v. and family, so it's correct. The photo can be found at: |

Mukerjee edited Kazi Nazrul Islam and deleted whimsically. I was busy for some day, now I wanted to start work again and look what I found. Saying irrelevant, he deleted the work of the poet. That was only a sample of Nazrul's work. If it is irrelevant in this page, make it relavant with appropriate page setup. I don't know him, but I saw his edit. I don't like this edit. Please, inspire me, I want to be patient. |

== Bandarban District == |
|
|
|
|
|
I tried to be helpful when I was writing the tourism part for the Bandarban District entry. I followed the way of the classic tourist information books and put in proper names and value attributes. I believe, anyone who wants to visit Bandarban would have found the information helpful, which is not easily available on the Web. How can I circumvent that "advertisement or endorsement" thing to get real on-ground information across? (] 14:19, 17 May 2006 (UTC)) |
|
|
|
|
|
:I've replied in the talk page of the district article, but here are some suggestions.... do not emulate tourist information books. This is an encyclopedic entry, so do not address the reader as "you". Do not use judgement on which hotel is better, unless the hotels were formally compared, and someone has declared one as the best hotel. You need to cite sources which say this hotel is better. Otherwise, it becomes ], which should not appear in articles. For example, you CAN say that, according to this magazine, or this visitor survey in that year, this hotel was cited as the best one in Bandarban town (). If you just want to mention the hotels' names, you can do that saying things like "X, Y, Z are some hotels in PQR area. Y is maintained by the king's family". etc. --] 18:42, 17 May 2006 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
Should I create a separate Web Page, for example on Geocities, on the tourist information details, and put a link in the external links part? Should I create a separate entry for tourism? Or should I use material from Lonely Planets, which is not featured on their web site and is a bit dated now? (] 14:42, 17 May 2006 (UTC)) |
|
|
|
|
|
:The thing you are looking for is wikitravel (http://wikitravel.org/en/Main_Page ). You can write details of tourist information, with entries for each particular hotel, and comparison statements like this hotel X is the best one etc. Then you can use a link to wikitravel using the {{tl|wikitravel}} tag in the links section or the tourism section. That sounds like exactly what you are looking for. |

Thanks for all the advice, on this page and on the talk page of the entry on Bandarban District. This would come really handy. I hope I'll keep receiving this kind of valuable guidance in future as well. And, please, watch for the links I put on Bandarban Ditsrict, because I intend to keep adding concentric rings of information on existing entries, as well as new entries that I create to cover everything that relates to the original entry. I have already created two on CCDB and BSCIC. (] 15:20, 18 May 2006 (UTC)) |

After a lenghty, but much-needed Wikibreak, I'm happy to announce that version 1.2 of VandalProof is now ''available for download!'' Beyond fixing some of the most obnoxious bugs, like the persistent crash on start-up that many have experienced, version 1.2 also offers a wide variety of new features, including a stub-sorter, a global user whitelist and blacklist, navigational controls, and greater customization. You can find a full list of the new features ]. While I believe this release to be a significant improvement over the last, it's nonetheless nowhere near the end of the line for VandalProof. Thanks to ], I now have an account on <span class="plainlinks"></span> with SysOp rights and have already been hard at work incorporating administrative tools into VandalProof, which I plan to make available in the near future.

Ragib, No I don't misunderstand you. One thing I again trying to bring to your knowledge. In web Ayyavazhi is too poor. So far works of Ayyavazhi in web is less knowledgable and searching for it's source in internet may be like searching a needle in the ocean. But we can find more from books than from web. As soon as I complete my works on wikisource (Akilathirattu Ammanai and Arul Nool) it will be some more ease to judge Ayyavazhi. There are many Tamil users in Misplaced Pages and I think they may judge easily. Any way now I've done some thing in the article ] and in the discussion page. Please take a look, Thank You. - ] 20:59, 24 May 2006 (UTC) |

== Request regarding problem user == |

|

Hi Ragibbhai - I request you as an admin for help in resolving some issues ] has been causing. You may be aware that on ], this user has caused issues by objecting to nominations for very generalized, unfounded reasons that have provoked serious responses from other people. On my RfA, he said that my username was "Islamophobic" and that my reversion of POV edits on ] was vandalism. He has also been objecting in a generalized, unfounded manner on ]. In an FAC especially, people are supposed to object by reasons that can be fixed. Anwar does not. It appears that his objective in doing this is to wreck the nominations. Additionally, it seems that he operates with an anti-India, anti-Hindu bias (most of this behavior has been on Indian FACs and RfAs) - others may disagree, but it just seems that way. Additionally, other folks have found him to be trolling and stalking. When users have attempted to talk to him, try to work out the problems or try to understand his thinking, he has not responded to him, and instead he refactors his talkpage and brands the comments in a depreciating, mocking way. Already two administrators - ] and ] have attempted to talk to him. I've also asked ] to help. |
|
|
|
|

Please see ], where the full jist of the issues and diffs are available. I request you to please try to explain to him that his behavior is disruptive and rude. I've tried to explain to him that we want to work positively with him, but he has only mocked such comments. ] 00:43, 25 May 2006 (UTC) |

Creationists have been active in wikipedia too (see ]), but in the end, science triumphs over pseudo-science and the fertile imaginations of the bigots. Sorry if my statements offended you. Thanks. --] 19:28, 2 June 2006 (UTC) |

Please, can you provide me the addresses of those creationist sites. Pseudo-scientific is a new term for me. I think science says about the world around us. Then what will be pseudo-scientific? I am only a Buet student (and you were a teacher of Buet). It means I am a student. If I study the world around me, then I will study science. By studying this science, if I find the existence of God, then will it become pseudo-scientific? |
|
|
I was a student of Notre Dame College. In biology class, Gazi Azmol Sir said about the theory of evolution and about Darwin. Darwin didn't prove anything, he just proposed. That wasn't pseudo-scientific lecture. I want to know your scientific lecture on this topic soon. A proposal from Darwin is scientific, and a fact against Darwin is pseudo-scientific! |

First of all, thank you for welcoming me. I am reading wikipedia long since, but just started writing yesterday.

Hi Ragib, |
|
|
|
|
|
I am new at Misplaced Pages and I have been trying to delete the photo that I uploaded to "Hossain Mohammad Ershad", but every time I click on "Edit this page", I don't get any clear instruction as to how I can delete the uploaded photo. Would you please help me figure out how I can do that? I would appreciate your help. Thanks. |

:I don't have the slightest idea what quarrel you have with him, but calling someone "3rd-rate liar" surely falls under ]. Any further comments like this will result in blocks. Thanks. --] 05:55, 24 June 2006 (UTC) |

::If third rate is ] under what category these comments fall..And why you take no action against him.PPL backing vandals are no different from them---At least I think so.Yes You may block me after blocking this man and ppl backing him.Do you have it in you.] 06:11, 24 June 2006 (UTC) |
