You added "The fort is historic for it was built around 200 years back when the Gurkhas won the princely state of Baghat. The central entrance to the fort is a galleried hall that is facing the east and there’s a big water tank kept in the center. The ceiling of the upper storey is quite low. It is said that these stories were kept low-heighted intentionally so that the soldiers could fight the invaders (the British Army) in a crawling pose and ensure safety of the same time. The third hall at the fort is a place where visitors can witness amazing engineering skills of the Gurkhas. There’s an oval-shaped room facing the east and this is the reason the roof at this part of the fort has not collapsed even after so long."

- You have a number of concerns raised about copyright issues. What makes this time different? Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 09:19, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
- Hello James, I recently came to know about this user's copyright infringement issues. I have known this user in real life since the WikiConference India which their Punjabi User-Group hosted and he was an organizer. From what I could perceive after having a conversation with the user off-wikipedia about the issues that he was not able to follow our policies and in some situations could not understand how serious a warning message is on English Wikipedia (WP:AGFC). They are particularly active only on Punjabi Wikipedia which is a very small community where every user knows every other user in real life which is why they never actually had any exposure to English Wikipedia's functioning and particularly unfamiliar with Wikipedia's culture and policies. The matter that he could not respond to the messages and warning on this talk page are mostly due to communication problem, English is not their native language. I came here to let you know that he since really understand the problem with his editing pattern and is actively trying to solve it, I have advised him to not add content on English Wikipedia without reading up content policies, I have also suggested that he should rather work on their native Wikipedia. I could see the above unblock request from January 2017 has been declined but I could assure that since then our Indic community is in touch with this person. I believe that no further disruption would come from this user. Our Indic community would really appreciate if you could remove the block from his account. Thanks!

Bibi Bhagbhari moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Bibi Bhagbhari, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. ~StyyxTalk? 21:31, 3 June 2022 (UTC)

Wikimedians for Sustainable Development - December 2023 Newsletter
[edit]Dear Wikimedians for Sustainable Development,
As we bid farewell to 2023, we reflect on a year that has been an uneven year for our user group. While the journey has been marked by some truly inspiring events, most of our efforts have been largely uncoordinated and the user group hasn't been the support it could have been. Yet, there's a glimmer of hope and a world of potential for 2024.
Highlights of 2023:
- Newsletters Galore
- We kicked off the year with zeal, sharing updates and inspiration through four newsletters. The number of things happening in the movement is astounding, but we need to rethink the format of the newsletter going into the next year.
- Growing Strong
- The Wikimedians for Sustainable Development family welcomed 33 new members in 2023. Your passion and dedication continue to inspire us, and we look forward to nurturing this community spirit in the year ahead.
- Wikimania Talks
- Our voices echoed far and wide at Wikimania, where several members of our community took the virtual stage to share insights and ideas about everything from Wikipedians-in-Residence's to open data. Your contributions showcased our commitment to sustainable development on a global scale.
- Content Creation Magic
- Throughout the year, our extended community demonstrated incredible dedication to expanding the knowledge base on Wikipedia. Countless hours were spent creating and curating content that aligns with our mission, contributing to a more sustainable digital ecosystem.
- Campaigning hard
- We saw a large variety of campaigns, from writing challenges to editathons. The willingness to experiment with new formats and partners, as well as learning from past efforts, shows great promise for the future.
Acknowledging Challenges:
While we celebrate these achievements, we acknowledge that 2023 presented its fair share of challenges. A lack of global coordination reminded us that the road to sustainable development is not always linear. However, it is precisely these challenges that fuel our determination to work together more cohesively in the coming year and proof that the user group is needed.
Hopeful Anticipation for 2024:
As we turn the page to 2024, let's carry forward the lessons learned and the successes celebrated. We are optimistic that, with renewed energy and a collective commitment, we will overcome obstacles and create an even more impactful and connected Wikimedians for Sustainable Development community.
Here's to a year of collaboration, growth, and making a lasting impact on the world through our shared passion for sustainability. Together, we can turn challenges into opportunities and pave the way for a brighter future.
Wishing you all a joyous holiday season and a Happy New Year!
Warm regards, User:Ainali, User:Daniel Mietchen
PS. We have started writing our yearly report, please add your activities to it.

Hello Harvinder Chandigarh, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
While your contributions are appreciated, I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Mohanjit, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mohanjit.
Deletion discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. Our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. The most common issue in these discussions is notability, but it's not the only aspect that may be discussed; read the nomination and any other comments carefully before you contribute to the discussion. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.
If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Remsense}}
. And don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~
. Thanks!
