Nomination of List of villages in Haryana for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of villages in Haryana is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of villages in Haryana until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Qwyrxian (talk) 05:25, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Just ignore that; it's an automated message because I created the AfD for the list with a tool. Sorry, but this one has to go--of the small number of blue links, almost none of those actually point to villages in Haryana. As I explained in AfD, this list actually makes it harder to improve coverage of villages in India, because it would take significant effort just to get the list to the point where it had no information rather than inaccurate information as it does now.

The article Nano City has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A classic example of why WP:CRYSTAL exists. This scheme was cancelled - see, for example, http://www.indianexpress.com/news/nano-city-project-called-off/643290/ or generally GSearch "nano city project called off".

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Sitush (talk) 11:33, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on User:Maheshkumaryadav/Blue sandbox, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Haven't heard from you in a while

I haven't heard from you in a while, and I see you haven't been editing Wikipedia much. Do you have any questions, or need any help or suggestions? Qwyrxian (talk) 06:32, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nowadays i am getting less spare time, that's the reason. I shall be incorporating the change in the sandbox advised by you. Thanks. Mahesh Kumar Yadav (talk) 07:38, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No problem, I totally understand. I just wanted to make sure I hadn't missed something from your or hadn't addressed some concern. Qwyrxian (talk) 08:42, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppet investigation

Hi Mahesh, please accept my sincere apologies if I have got this wrong but there has been a worrying development today and in the circumstances I have decided it is best to open a sockpuppet investigation, which you can find here. I have let your mentor know that I have done this.

Hopefully it will be a coincidence and we can all forget about it. - Sitush (talk) 14:40, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've blocked your account indefinitely. Using another account to get around the ANI consensus that you would work with a mentor, a consensus that meant you did not receive a community ban, is not acceptable behaviour. You can be unblocked, if you can convince an administrator you will work with your mentor, and edit from this account and this account only. Courcelles 22:41, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is it 100% certain that he socked? Maheshkumaryadav?? Do you have anything to say??? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:04, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing is ever really 100% certain with CU, but it is likely the check found a combination of unique UA strings combined with an editing pattern linking the two users. Viriditas (talk) 23:42, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I see. I interpreted the report result as did find, therefore likely a sock, with likely referring only to the CU results, and not the behaviour. I gather that means, say, 70% likely as far as the CU is concerned. That plus the 80% likelihood of socking based on editing similarities, adds up to.....how's your maths? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:49, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I think you're right; the CU results referred to the same dynamic IP and UA's. Does the result of "likely" also take into account editing similarities? For example, the pattern of dropping the master for the puppet in just over 24 hours time and proceeding along the same contribution history? I'm not a CU so I don't know the answer. Viriditas (talk) 09:05, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The CU is the person who imposed the block here. There was evidence supplied at the SPI regarding editing patterns etc. The mentor is currently on a short wikibreak. Things may change when the mentor returns. - Sitush (talk) 13:22, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Maheshkumaryadav: In case you are not aware: You can still edit this page. We await your comments. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:54, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unbelievably disappointing. Disheartening. And for no benefit, in fact: we're still going to go through and delete or merge all of those articles you created, Mahesh. All you actually did was to cost serious editors a bunch of time, and have your articles live for all of a week or so. And, if you sock again, they won't even be up that long. Obviously, you're free to provide some sort of explanation here, but I can't imagine what could convince either me or an uninvolved admin to lift the block, given that the alternative to the mentoring was actually a ban. I'll have to think about whether or not, in fact, you should be banned instead of only indefinitely blocked. Please, do tell us, what the logic was behind the socking. If you prefer to contact me by email, go to my email page and send a message there. It really is a shame, because, if focused, you really could do a lot to improve English Wikipedia's admittedly below average coverage of India, the largest English speaking country. Qwyrxian (talk) 13:38, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Summary

In case you haven't already summarized this whole thing in your head:

  • Your edits betrayed the trust of kind editors.
  • Your edits wasted over half a million keystrokes all tolled.
  • Your edits wasted well over a dozen hours of editors' time.
  • Your edits cost you hours of your time working against community consensus.
  • All that time wasted could have been used to help your cause.
  • Almost all of your edits have been undone.
  • Your edits have caused you disgrace.

If you had only approached this in an honest and collaborative way, you could have achieved great things for India-related Wikipedia.

I suggest:

  • an apology, at least to Qwyrxian, although I really don't think you feel at all bad about it. Also, I doubt an apology would be taken in good faith.
  • avoiding any more sockpuppeteering. We are watching.
  • using this fiasco to help yourself in your future endeavours by using this as a model of exactly, precisely what not to do in life. Everybody lost, including you. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:45, 6 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please, let's boldly get rid of the pink. As far as village stubs are concerned, I am in favour of removing the pink and letting them stand. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 02:14, 25 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This page is started by User:Anna Frodesiak and all the articles listed on this page were started by User:maheshkumaryadav only. For kind information on new visitors. Mahesh Kumar Yadav (talk) 09:05, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If I've cited "AfD" in place of "PROD", here and there, forgive me. Same idea. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 07:15, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm just suggesting a plan here, not dictating. Please say if you can improve the system. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 16:15, 12 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Please remove resolved items from the list if uncontroversial, or add Green tickY. I suggest that if an item accumulates two Green tickYGreen tickY, it means it is probably okay to remove as resolved.
  • Likewise for ☒N Two of them probably means ready for AfD or merge, etc. I suggest leaving such here until the the links turn red. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 01:20, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think everything is listed here now. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 09:39, 12 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I added some comments to the issues column. They are just comments, and don't mean that I support the existence of the article. In fact, there are a lot that should remain within the parent article. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 14:31, 12 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The 'no critical issues' ones and unassessed could use an objection or an Green tickY. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 14:44, 12 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I can't check the Chinese protest one due to my locality. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 05:46, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Of course, we can short cut the merge process by pasting the content into the parent and attributing in the summary and talk, or simply delete and add a redirect under some circumstances. A consideration. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 15:00, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In view of the current AN/I discussion about copyvios, I feel that any articles noted here that have copyvios should remain in the table for now even if they are deleted or fixed. - Sitush (talk) 15:32, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. Good call. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 15:40, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Pink means still unresolved as far as this page is concerned. Please remove pink when resolved.

General articles

Article Issues
List of hospitals in Chandigarh Capital Region ☒N an uncited and unlinked list - what is the point? - Sitush (talk) 03:20, 14 May 2011 (UTC); I searched around, and can find no other example of a "List of hospitals..." article for any region smaller than a state, so I have proposed merger into List of hospitals in India. Yes, it's unsourced, but that's not really strictly necessary for a list like this (I think it should be, but I know from past experience I'm not in the majority here). Qwyrxian (talk) 04:29, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
List of Indian politicians convicted of crimes * I have just removed uncited material as this has BLP implications. Sitush, 15:06 12 May 2011
List of people from Chandigarh Capital Region ☒N ☒N there is a cat for this already Sitush (talk) 16:59, 12 May 2011 (UTC) Agree. Delete. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 01:03, 13 May 2011 (UTC) Second thoughts: lots of articles have notable people section. Could be an asset. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 08:53, 17 May 2011 (UTC) I suggest leaving this until fate of CCR article determine, then adding it to that. If CCR goes, so does this. Thoughts? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 02:54, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
List of scandals in Maharashtra This should merge into Corruption in India ☒N Anna Frodesiak (talk) 16:20, 12 May 2011 (UTC) / ☒N support merge Sitush (talk) 16:57, 12 May 2011 (UTC); In this case, I don't agree with a merge, because there's already a fair number of scandals listed. If it is merged, it should be merged into List of scandals in India by year and List of scandals in India by state, since it is just a list not a prose article. However, feel free to propose a merge if you like, but I don't agree with doing one without discussion here. Qwyrxian (talk) 06:51, 19 May 2011 (UTC) I don't care where it is merged, to be honest. There have been that many unattributed forks etc that I think we have all got confused regarding the options available. You will note right near the top of this page that Anna has revised her opinion. I support her revised opinion, ie: let the List of scandals in India by state]] merge situation resolve itself and then merge this article into which ever one trumps in that discussion. - Sitush (talk) 07:00, 19 May 2011 (UTC) It looks like List of scandals in India by state will trump List of scandals in India by year, and so this article can merge into the former. Is that okay? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 02:47, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Portal:Chandigarh I don't know what qualifies as a portal, but most of the links in this thing are remnants of M's campaign. I move for deletion. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 02:47, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Transportation in Chandigarh Capital Region ☒N (Sitush: s/b merged with Chandigarh Capital Region ?) Agree. Not ready to break away. Chandigarh Capital Region is small enough to accommodate. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 01:46, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Parks and gardens in Chandigarh Capital Region no critical issues (Sitush: s/b merged with Chandigarh Capital Region ?) Agree with merge. I was thinking parent is Chandigarh. Chandigarh Capital Region is not big, and should accommodate this. [verification needed] Anna Frodesiak (talk) 01:41, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Media bias in India (Sitush: it is cited but seems poor quality & I am not sure abt notability; possible merge candidate) ☒N Rubbish sources; article says absolutely nothing. Delete. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 05:44, 13 May 2011 (UTC) Any opinions here? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 02:47, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Knowledge industry in Chandigarh Capital Region unreferenced (Sitush: s/b merged with Chandigarh Capital Region ?) ☒N Agree. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 13:01, 14 May 2011 (UTC) ☒N changed my mind - I am going to ask Mahesh to provide some citations; if he cannot/does not, and there are none provided by other contributors, then I think it s/b deleted. It reeks of WP:OR at present. - Sitush (talk) 14:29, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Have asked - if MYK continues to be active here & there are no cites etc in, say, 2 or 3 days then PROD. - Sitush (talk) 15:00, 14 May 2011 (UTC) I see you ref'd it, so I presume you agree to removing the pink. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 17:25, 17 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Reinstated pink. Should this should be treated like the other CCR merge proposals? If the economy of CCR is a vague concept then so too is this subsector of that economy. - Sitush (talk) 11:30, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Economy of Chandigarh Capital Region (Sitush: s/b merged with Chandigarh Capital Region ?) ☒N Agree with merge. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 04:46, 13 May 2011 (UTC) ☒N changed my mind: it has been uncited since being created in Sept 2010. Delete the thing. - Sitush (talk) 04:04, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Have asked - if MYK continues to be active here & there are no cites etc in, say, 2 or 3 days then PROD. Don't see the point in merging an uncited article. - Sitush (talk) 15:46, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Seems to have little content not paraphrased from parent. Merge could be a real pain/produce redundancies. Possible extract refs and PROD. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 08:21, 17 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • It has some sources now, so it should be merged into the parent; okay if I propose? Qwyrxian (talk) 06:59, 19 May 2011 (UTC) Good plan. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 01:34, 20 May 2011 (UTC) I can't see that it has been proposed yet - were you waiting on me or is it because the thing will be covered by the blanket merge of these CCR forks? - Sitush (talk) 11:23, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Culture of Chandigarh Capital Region unreferenced (Sitush: s/b merged with Chandigarh Capital Region ?) ☒N Agree with merge. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 04:36, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Have asked for some citations - if MYK continues to be active here & there are no cites etc in, say, 2 or 3 days then PROD. I now see no point in even merging without cites. - Sitush (talk) 15:00, 14 May 2011 (UTC) ☒N Now with citations, but only 3 sentences long, could merge to Chandigarh instead of prod. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 08:15, 17 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm actually concerned a bit--I don't see any references currently that verify the existence of a place called "Greater Chandigarh" or the "Chandigarh capital region". While I was going to suggest merging this into the CCR article, I first want to verify that said region actually "exists" (i.e., is described as a singular region. Furthermore, if CCR does exist, we need to be careful that information is added to the right place (i.e., Chandigarh vs. Greater Chandigarh). I'm going to query Mahesh on this. Qwyrxian (talk) 00:40, 18 May 2011 (UTC) You know, I never thought to check. I didn't even realize M started it. You see, this is why we like you. You check what we don't even consider checking. Good catch. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 01:24, 18 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm going to prod this. CCR is strictly a political/economic concept (one that hasn't actually been approved), like Greater Los Angeles Area or Greater London. There is no way that it has a distinct culture. Qwyrxian (talk) 06:59, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not that there was much doubt before, but this pretty much confirms that Maheshkumaryadav wore the sock named Creatingabetterworld. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 09:20, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Next round of clean ups

This thread at RfD may result in a fair amount of cleaning up of the sock creations. - Sitush (talk) 10:13, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
