hi, what is the official policy on image use in Bangladesh. There are tags for Indian-PD and Pak public domain images in Misplaced Pages, but none for Bangladesh and I wish to upload some old images and want to know the laws. Do u have any idea on this? ] 06:05, 18 November 2006 (UTC) |

Hi Ragib, |
|
|
|
|
|
I need a little help with Bengali langauge. I am having trouble typing "Mukherjee". When typed, it renders as: মুখর্জী। The 'rr' is coming over 'জ', while it should actually come after the 'I'. How do I rectify this. — ] (]) 06:59, 19 November 2006 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
:Actually, I don't understand what the problem. If you add the "rr" (called "ref" in Bangla), it is supposed to go over the previous consonant. So, here, the ref is correctly coming over জ rather than the ী. So, the correct rendering of the word is মুখার্জী. --] 00:59, 20 November 2006 (UTC) |
|
|
::If you think that is correct then there is no problem. I may have been misled as when we write in Hindi, the correct rendering is "मुखर्जी" (notice the location of 'ref' here). Thanks anyway, — ] (]) 17:40, 20 November 2006 (UTC) |

Dude, I have to agree with Bharatveer there. Zora has a nasty habit of making extremely annoying accusations of "political ploys"/"censorship"/"perpetrating massacre" . You know bothering him only pisses him off more. You may also note, that Deepujoseph agrees with him fully there. Its not like Zora has a real argument. Her argument in simple terms is: "you guys are anti-Muslim". I cant speak for bharat, but deepu and I certainly are not, and neither is Bharatveer unless prodded to get pissed.<b>] </b><font color = "blue"><sub>]</sub></font> 03:45, 20 November 2006 (UTC) |

The Stamp you deleted from the Marakkalage page was not put there for its philatelic value. It was there to illustrate what a Marakkar looks like. |

:That exactly is the reason why it was removed. A stamp cannot be used for any other purpose than to illustrate the stamp itself. In other words, you cannot use a stamp to illustrate the ''subject'' depicted in the stamp. It is ok if the stamp is used in a philatelic article on the stamp itself. See ].

Hey Ragib, |

After the discussions on the use of vernacular scripts on wikipedia pages, I am looking to replace these, as far as possible with an appropriate transcription and transliteration (IPA or ITRANS). Unfortunatetly, I haven't been able to find a universally acceptable table for Bangla transcription - could you help me out here? Thanks. ] 17:57, 27 November 2006 (UTC) |

:I think ] can help you with this (he's a linguist, so can do the IPA very well). As for non-Indian bios, especially Bangladeshi bio pages, there is actually no problem with the Bangla script (since Bangla is virtually the Only script used in Bangladesh). Thanks. --] 18:01, 27 November 2006 (UTC) |

He wants these articles to be under the scope of newly created ]. He created this project and he is the only member. He is by removing the India project banners from articles that are tagged as Indian-history related. I would like your advise about how to proceed, should I report this to ], or should India project scope be limited to only-post-indepedence articles since this user feels Pakistani Wikipedians will be seeing Ashoka Chakra and India project links on the article tag pages (For example: ]).

== Teamwork to spread knowledge. == |
|
|
|
|
|
Ragib,I have unfortunately fallen into the trap of "battle ground" laid out by some fanatics,who have come here for the mere purpose of mixing their POV with facts. |
|
|
I realise that responding in a "tit-for-tat" manner is exactly what they seek in order to turn wikipedia into the "battle ground" I reffered to,but rather a calm-manner(which hurts these attention seeking people the most)combined with facts. |
|
|
I am proud of the contributions I have made to wikipedia and will continue to do so. |
|
|
My request to you is simple: |
|
|
|
|
|
-keep an eye on user/administrator Fowler&Fowler to prevent furthur violations. |
|
|
-keep an eye on the South Asian talk pages for any foul language or vandalism(which was made against me but ignored by administrator Fowler&Fowler) |
|
|
-keep a lock on hisory of India page until disputes are resolved. |
|
|
|
|
|
I am on a mission on wikipedia and I invite you to join my mission by stating the objectives: |
|
|
|
|
|
-to spread knowledge and truth |
|
|
|
|
|
-to combat hostile users and corrupt administrators. |
|
|
|
|
|
-to combat the growth of propaganda |
|
|
|
|
|
-to combat any form of corruption |
|
|
|
|
|
-to seperate fact form POV |
|
|
|
|
|
-to fight hegimony of all forms |
|
|
|
|
|
We can acheive all these objectives by working together and not by falling into the "battle-ground" as I have fallen into. |
|
|
|
|
|
Questions: |
|
|
-Is it okay for me to post on a Bangladeshi talk page?(I know Im pakistani) |
|
|
-How do I post a POV check gem if I am unable to |

The things he wrote in capital letters which(was it you?) told him was considered "yelling". |

Ragib, thanks for your concerns. This issue is being currently handled by an admin (]). ] is trying to precipitate the issue by drawing the attention of several admins at once. This doesnt mean you can't or shouldn't act on it, but my suggestion is it's not necessary for more than a single admin to bother with the same thing. I am not a vandal and I have good reasons to protect my content which is allowed on Misplaced Pages under fair use considerations. Please see ]. Cheers. ] 14:54, 10 December 2006 (UTC) |
