Bhadani, it's silly to scold Dbachmann for remarks made nearly a year ago. Did you even notice the date? He was tired, he was cranky, and even though you're probably going to decide that I'm a bigot too, I think he had a point. There are people editing Misplaced Pages who have little education and great hatreds. As he says, they can't be greatly blamed for either, but it is wearisome dealing with the results. To keep WP stable, we're going to have to civilize and educate the whole human race -- or at least the portion of it with net access. That's why people get cranky, take wiki-breaks, or give up. Read this much-copied article , have a laugh, and relax. ] 03:36, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

:::Sorry to butt-in here, but actually, Bachmann is wrong on 2 counts: 1)there is no "ethnic conflict" in India. (There may be some religious riots, but they are not happening everywhere) 2) The Indians whom he has encountered are angry because of injustice perpetrated upon them, which does not actually amount to hate, but who cares for them anyway? So I feel on account of his valuable contributions towards articles relating to Hinduism and related fields, he must be let off ''but'' with a warning. ]] 08:43, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
* I knew Mr. Bhadani from more than ten years ago on Misplaced Pages. He was a pioneer and leader amongst Indian Wikipedians, who looked up to him. He was unfailingly warm, gentle and kind, and devoted to the Misplaced Pages project and its coverage of India-related content. Thank you Sir for your wonderful spirit, many kindnesses and immense contributions.
::::Hi Bhadani. I agree with Babub that DBachmann has made many valuable contributions, and hence should not be banned for his comments (which as Zora points out were made some time ago). I am quite willing to accept Zora's opinion that the comments were made while DBachmann was tired, or DBachmann's own comments that he intended no offence. However, what I found very sad in DBachmann's behavior, even more than the comments themselves, was his unwillingness to accept that these comments might be offensive, even if he did not intend to be offensive, and to take responsibility for any such (possibly unintentional) offensiveness. --] 13:35, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Most times the conversation starts on difficult terms and ends on friendly terms and I think there could be two explanations for this. 1) He has mood swings, which is perfectly acceptable considering how many controversial articles must be on his watchlist considering he has over 35000 edits or 2) He just isn't ready to accept other views. I'll just point you out to these comments to editors which he associates to Hindu nationalism (including myself). The fact is that anything outside his point of view on these articles is labelled pseudoscience, propaganda or Hindu nationalism .

::Bhadani, I came to your page to thank you for expanding ], which was on my to-do list. I came across this discussion, about dab's much quoted outburst. I just want to make two points (1) to say he was impugning 1bn people or being prejudiced in any way is an inappropriate reading even of the quoted sentence. As I recall, he was responding to the extended trolling on the ] page, and inundated with two or three new users - or sockpuppets - a day, came to the conclusion that it must be the case that some previously unconnected part of India, with little or no education, and exposed to constant inter-caste or communal tension, was the source of the plague. The implication is, of course, that he does not think that this is all of India or all Indians. In fact, he has difficult interactions with what some might call extreme nationalists of all stripes, and these words were his expression of the fear that there would be a potentially unlimited source of such conflicts as more people from places where they had no exposure to the rules of online civility and citation enforced here started editing. So judge him, as you will, but do not judge him believing him to be prejudiced or insulting about all Indians, because you would be wrong to do so. (2) You say above that you have lost all respect and trust for dab. That you have lost respect is possible, and I do not have anything to say about that. That you have lost trust is a little problematic. I may not trust dab to keep his temper with newbies, but that does not mean I do not recognise that he is a superb editor, and more, one that has a devotion to his area of expertise. We need more people who choose to limit themselves to an area where they are experts and expand and cite for articles that have reading lists that are obscure for the rest of us. Dab has done that conscientiously. His misfortune is that his area of expertise happens to clash with some issues that are controversial politically, and thus he receives more than his share of new editors, and some established editors who do not share his level of reading and thus are incapable of carrying out arguments at the level of scholarship that he wishes to maintain. I think it is important that you accept that this is so, because at some time in the future you may be called on to intervene at one of these articles, and unless you can trust dab to have the best interests of WP at heart, you will be compromised as a mediator. ] 08:14, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Bhadani, you know better than me, that Dab contributed enormously into the India-related articles. A year ago he also made an unfortunate note about two ] users that maybe interpreted as an offence against one billion of Indians. Since then he many times tried to explain that he did not mean anything of that sort. What is really matter thousand of hours spent wotking on India-related articles or a stupid slip of tongue. The good working relations between you and Dab are important for the survival of the project. I am sure you will find ways to mend them ] 11:30, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

== DYK Queiry ==

Hi Bhadaniji,

How are you ? Well, I have just created an article yesterday. Here it is - ]. It's quite a long article and I feel that it should be put on the main page in the "Did You Know" section. I don't know much about how to do it though. I have created a lot of new articles, but really none of them really got to the DYK consideration. Can you tell me how can I go about it ? --<b>]]]</b><sup>]|]</sup> 16:55, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
:I went to the article with the intention of helping but its an obvious copyvio from . I am putting it up for speedy deletion. NRS, if you are interested in recreating the article, I can work with you to help it reach DYK. Dont worry, it doesnt have to be large, just relevant. Regards -- ]] 18:19, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
::You please do as you wish. In my opinion, a copyvio should first be deleted, and then recreated without the elements of copyvio. --] 18:23, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
:::My reply to ]:

Hi bhadani, thanx for the reply. Yeah, it's an obvious copy. Pity, I didn't check the site earlier. Actually, a user had pasted the whole article on ] page from where it was shifted to the ] page. I have mentioned it on the article discussion page as well as in the edit summary when I created the article. So I thought the article is authentic. Well, anyway, I would like to have one article atleast to the DYK level. You know, I've created quite a few articles, but I wasn't aware of the DYK system. Thanx again. While creating a new article, I will get back to you.

::I understand your feelings.

Hello, Bhadani. I'm just dropping by to inquire about the Fyb3roptik page. I know it was deleted, but could you give me the reason why? I don't know how it was written, but it should be written relating to a character from This Spartan Life. If you could give me the full explanation I'll work towards trying to get the page and keep it up to Misplaced Pages scratch. Thanks for your time. --] 02:49, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Rest in peace

We gather from the Facebook page of Gangadhar Bhadani that he is no more. A very keen editor from India, he was known to many other editors from the region both in real life and on Misplaced Pages. On his Facebook page he had reported being unwell but little did most of us know of the gravity. He published an autobiography recently. Wishing strength to the bereaved friends and family.
