Image in Hyderabad, India
Good day, Well that's a good idea, any way, I am not against placing Images, as the block editor has propagated against me, but the only reason what worries is, tomorrow some other user may stand and ask to replace the image with the street or locality which they like/prefer. regards --Omer123hussain (talk) 15:21, 14 September 2011 (UTC)

Psychology
Hi Mike, my name is Molly, I'm in your psychology class! See you in class on Monday! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mp176418 (talk • contribs) 23:59, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Molly, thanks for contacting me . Can I know which class you belong to? I mentor many classes, and I can't seem to find you listed (not to worry though, I'll help you out anyway :) ). Lynch7 13:01, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
- I'm Molly's professor. I'm pretty sure you're not my mentor. I'm not entirely sure how she got to your talk page. If your curious you can see the details of my class here. --MTHarden (talk) 02:01, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

DYK for North America Vishwa Kannada Association
On 20 September 2011, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article North America Vishwa Kannada Association, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the breakaway North America Vishwa Kannada Association was formed in March 2009 by 7 founder members of the Association of Kannada Kootas of America and 25 others? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/North America Vishwa Kannada Association.You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Thanks!
Thanks for asessing my submissions, Mike. I too am interested in aviation (although it not my profession). i've just begun helping out on WP, and hope to make time more often. Thanks once again. Trini 16:58, 22 September 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trinidade (talk • contribs)

JNNURM
Thanks for assessing my contributions to the article. I'll try and cite more sources and expand the article with more content. But I am completely stumped with the table comment. I know its too large but do you think I should shorten it? But then it would become inaccurate. Am referring to grading of C from stub for the article, JNNURM. Some tips regarding what I can do to at-least be adjudged A quality would be really nice. --Debastein1 (talk) 18:07, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
- I guess I should have been more clear: The contents of the table are perfectly fine, but the alignment and the size of the cells need to be fine tuned. You could probably work with a left alignment and smaller cells, without a compromise on the data. Also, it would be good if you could find some pictures of JNNURM work going on (I'll try and click some in Bangalore, there is a hell lot of JNNURM work which is unfinished ;) ) Lynch7 18:11, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
- A class is quite far away though, but JNNURM is an article which has the media coverage and depth with which A class, or even FA class is certainly possible. It'll be an extremely remarkable achievement for the India education program if you succeed in getting it to GA, A or FA. Keep the good work going :) Lynch7 18:14, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
- I was planning to first add more content, as in create sub-sections as to the prevalence and progress of the programme in the major cities. After that possibly add some criticism aspects to maintain the neutrality. Problem is the sources seem to be a bit lacking. I understand the pictures concept. I'll click some in Pune if I get a chance, but I dnt get the alignment issue, do you want me to align the tables to the left or the content of the article in particular?? Currently, I've assigned a central alignment in case of the data in the tables.Debastein1 (talk) 18:19, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
- I feel its better if the tables are aligned left. Will help you out if you have any problems there.
- I don't think you'll have a lot of trouble finding newspaper articles concerning this (after all, Indian media loves to bash up government sponsored schemes). A google news search or a Hindu archives search would probably help. Lynch7 18:22, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
- I'll do one thing...Let me slowly add the data I mentioned and expand the article data-wise. Currently I expanded it only table-wise. Then once I'm pretty certain that I have put in enough data, I'll revert back to you to help me with the formatting. Thanks for the idea of the news sources, hadn't thought of that. But the problem lies in the fact that you mentioned, almost all of the work is still unfinished. I'll still cover as much as I can. Give me some time, and I'll revert back to you for the formatting and reassessment. Not sure of the FA or GA, status, but I think I can build an A-class at least. Along with your help, lets see what can be accomplished. Thanks a bunch again. --Debastein1 (talk) 18:31, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
- You'll have to pass through GA to get to an A :) Good luck! Lynch7 18:36, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

Hey
I've reverted the guy because he is a sock of one user who is permanently blocked. This last time, I've reverted him because I was sure his edit again would consist of slanders against me (as the previous one). I should have looked before reverting so I'm sorry. As for the film, I removed it because no sources were cited. Now that I see it on the net, I personally am still not compelled to re-add it because it seems that it is not yet confirmed. Thank you. Shahid • Talk2me 19:07, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
- Ah, I guessed there was some history to it. Well, yes I don't see any big media reports for the film, but then, small films don't get a lot of media reports do they? The TOI report seems to be quite genuine, what do you think? Lynch7 19:13, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
- Well, whether small or big, if it's Rani Mukerji, then it must get sufficient coverage. I say if there is a quote by Rani herself confirming her involvement with the project, then it's worth adding. Shahid • Talk2me 19:25, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
- Seems fine to me. One has to be careful with media reports about films I guess. Lynch7 19:29, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

Regarding AFD
Hey regarding this Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/M.A.Padmanabha_Rao when can we expect any decision ? That guy has contacted me via Facebook and is bent upon keeping this article, I tried to explain him a lot about all policies which I can, I also asked him to post on this AFD's discussion, he is bent upon creating this article. Rangilo Gujarati (talk) 19:43, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
- Usually its 7 days. Tell him that its somewhat OK to put it on his userpage or something, but not really as a WP article. Lynch7 19:49, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
- Seems like he's an old man, and won't be quite receptive. If his work becomes notable, then it'll automatically get an entry in WP. He need not have to struggle for that. Lynch7 19:58, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

Please suggest
Hello, !!! I had talked to you recently regarding some header files(inttypes.h and tgmath.h) which I have tried to edit as well as I possibly could, may be. Please have a look at these header files and suggest me how to improve these articles. Also, if possible, please tell me whether the images I have uploaded have a reliable source. I have added the link as a reference from where I learnt about the flowchart. Also, I tried to search for ansi.h on google but could not find any substantial information on it. If you could help me out with these, I would be grateful to you, Sir.
