You have deleted the description paragraph under the article "KAUL" in wiki, calling it rubbish. However, this discription is not only close but quite apt (even though its generalising).
When you delete an article w/o prior discussion, it shows that you are not open to new ideas / concepts.
You may share your opinion / any other point of view. If you disagree, kindly sight examples.
Hi Tripping Nambiar,
There is massive vandalism taking place on the page Knanaya. despite references from many works the passages are constantly being vandalised and pov tag is put up without any references being provided. An editor first put up text as anonymous without references and now with a new sock puppet is again reverting to the unreferenced pov text written as anonymous. Please help this page. thanks Vagab (talk) 19:04, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi i was wondering if you are interested in cleaning up the KNM page from vandalising extremists? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joeblckw (talk • contribs) 19:39, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Tripping Nambiar,
Someone has added Kodavas n Bunt communities as Kshatriyas.
My opinion is they are not kshatriya communities.
Can you plz confirm whether these two are kshatriya communities are not.
Hi,
thanks for ur intervene correcting ab Kodavas n Bunts.
More extreme vandalism
It seems there are editors who are so much bent on propagating false legends that they have gone on to create a new page on Saint Thomas Christians under a very different title (Malankara Church). This is done in order to avoid being detected and so avoid from being edited. This could be done by some editors who had earlier vandalized the pages on Saint Thomas Christians and syrian malabar nasrani. They have copied everything from these two pages and have added their POV nonsense of brahmin families on the new page called Malankara Church. This page needs to be merged back into its original source of saint thomas christians. This is extreme vandalism and this has to be checked or else all the efforts would be waste. thanks Vagab (talk) 14:10, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see it. Is the text you're quoting from the Dravidian languages article or some other article? (Apologies if I was wrong.) --Regents Park (roll amongst the roses) 13:14, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Tripping Nambiar I've moved the recent section added to a more appropriate section in the article. Also, most this data is from Britannica that is sourced from sources, which are over 100 years old and out of date (some of the sources are bias & a have a negative propaganda context) and need to be reviewed & edited thoroughly before remaining in the article. For the meanwhile I've moved them to the appropriate section. Stay well. Thanks.--Historian info (talk) 15:01, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi friend. Let me first say I really appreciate your help with article so thank you and well done. However, friend we must always remember when we are using sources, which are 100 years old, and from the British Empire that they usually are not neutral and the political propaganda must be taken out of them before we put them on wikipedia. They must be neutral; most British Empire sources, which are 100 years old, are heavily anti south Asian and portray South Asian as primitive and inferior. Finally, I like to say again I really appreciate your help with article so thank you and well done. P.S. Keep an eye out for vandals. The article is semi protected for now but when it expires the vandal will be back, we must protect it. Stay well.--Historian info (talk) 15:13, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, You removed the confusing tag, I didn't because this sentence is confusing for me also: "This event included the caste Hindu priest at the temple." What does it mean? Can you rephrase the sentence? Thanks. GDibyendu (talk) 13:50, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Zakir Naik
Your recent comment on the Zakir Naik talk page was notable. It would be helpful if you could put in more support and ensure that the article remains balanced, by restating your viewpoint on the talk page. Thanks - Agnistus (talk) 23:13, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
well done
instead of intelligent debate and collaboration towards an optimal phrasing, your stubborn revert warring resulted in the entire Hinduism article being tagged as disputed. Not the way to go. --dab(𒁳) 09:23, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
"reinstating your sources"? "your" sources are partly fine, partly worthless. I have no objection to quoting the former. My objection is to the statement in Wikipedia's voice. Hinduism isn't an "oldest religion" in any meaninful sense. The notion may still have some notability, and if you can show that "Hinduism is the oldest religion" is a notable meme, we can attribute it to the best source you can come up with. No problem. Certainly not in the article lead, though, and certainly not in Wikipedia's voice of course. We don't state "George W. Bush is an evil moron" in the aritcle lead, even if a majority of people would probably agree with that notion. That's because we are an encyclopedia, not a blog. dab(𒁳) 10:40, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

CPI(M)
Hi,
I looked into CPI(M) article and found that it is completely one sided. To restore the NPOV I tried to add 'Controversies and allegations' section. But a gang of people who work in co-ordination delete it as soon as I update it. Lokking at the history I also observed that a number of authors who tried to add sections or references critical to CPI(M) were banned and their contributions removed.
This gang of people are vandalizing all the articles on Indian political parties and right now I am in an edit war with them. Can you please help.
Hi, I tried to remove some POV,,unreferenced claims and politically motivated allegations in RSS article. Relata refero has reverted my edits. I have asked him for a debate on why he reverted my edits.Can you please join the debate if it happens. Otherwise try to moderate the topic.Sindhian (talk) 04:11, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Silly vengeful block, tsk tsk. Does the other party get a 3RR ban for three reverts?. Trips (talk) 15:21, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
3RR blocks don't apply for three reverts, only four or more. You clearly violated policy by making four reverts. This is not a vengeful block; I'm not pro-Bhindranwale. If you looked at my contributions, you'll see I've taken a neutral stance in writing that article. Nishkid64(Make articles, not wikidrama) 17:44, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ah ok, anyway make sure that fanatic user:Singh6 does not have a free run of the Khalistan article. Also I believe user:Relata refero has reverted me more than 3 times, and now an anon IP has been created for the sole purpose of reverting again. Would appreciate if you look into it. Trips (talk) 02:52, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I just started going through Singh6's recent contributions. RR reverted three times in 24 hour time period. The latest IP edit was by banned editor Kuntan. Nishkid64(Make articles, not wikidrama) 03:28, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I see. Sorry I meant Bhindranwale, not Khalistan. Singh6 seems better behaved on Khalistan. Trips (talk) 07:01, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Trips,
I feel the Hinduism article is in a mess. It was recommended as a good article and I have appealed that. I also also am not able to edit it. Are you ? I have registered email on Wiki can you please send me a mail. Sindhian (talk) 13:49, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Literacy rate in Kerala
Hi. I noticed that you made this edit in Kerala page. Evidence was proposed in the article talk page to show that Mizoram has a slighlty higher literacy rate than Kerala as per Government of India 2005-2006 statistics. Thus I changed "most" to "one of the most". Please look at those references and discuss in the talk page if you have concerns. Docku (talk) 01:43, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually it appears that it is you who does not have a clue about certain topics as you don't even know what a hypothesis is [9] here's the Wikipedia article for reference: Hypothesis. Dance With The Devil (talk) 04:35, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Think before editing. Read carefully, the context was that Indigenous Aryans is a notion that includes assumptions from number of hypothesis, rather than a single hypothesis, which I agreed with, the issue was never about what constitutes a hypothesis.
Sigh*, the consensus building process is going to be that much harder with Bachmann and his WP:OWNing multiple accounts, in addition to a few others who revert on default anything previously reverted by Bachmann without thinking. All off my revert blocks are the result of lack of consensus with the same editor. Trips (talk) 04:42, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, I apologize for my comments which were out of line. I am interested in this topic, however sterile revert warring is a bad habit that I have always carried with me. In the future I will make sure to discuss any disagreements with you and I am sure we can come to an amicable agreement. The offensive edit summary which you referred to was made out of frustration with an editor who repeatedly disrupted a page and would not list to talk page consensus which was for the material to not be included. It does not reflect my views, just my anger at the time. I hope that we can move past this, and continue on much better terms. Regards, Dance With The Devil (talk) 05:11, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oh and Relata refero is not a second account of Dbachmann, saying so hurts your credibility. However, I agree that he comes off as very aggressive in disputes. Dance With The Devil (talk) 05:25, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Sure. It's because of the personalities you interact and watch over a period when you realize two editors are one and the same with different watchlists. Closely monitoring their contribution lists will also show you further proof. Trips (talk) 06:25, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dude, they really aren't. I'm telling you this to help you. Faulty accusations of sock puppety really hurt your case when dealing with the administrators. Dance With The Devil (talk) 06:47, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
if your really want to be right on something so badly, how about you try to find a topic you actually know something about? Surely you must have some area of expertise? Perhaps you have an area of expertise in your job? It is really a waste of everyone's time to pretend you know better in a topic you don't know the first thing about, such as ancient history or linguistics. Correct me, but I don't suppose you've even the most basic academic training in these areas? --dab(𒁳) 13:34, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The same can be said of yourself, actually. You're not an academic, you just put a lot of your leisure time into WP and begin to feel possessive about your edit content. I only make relatively minor edits to topics of interest, so my impact is less. Cheers Trips (talk) 13:45, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

St.Thomas Christians.
Dear Tripping Nambiar,
I really appreciate your letters on the talk page of Saint Thomas Christians.
Since the days of the Portuguese, stories regarding the first century origin and aristocratic beginning began circulating widely among the Kerala Christians. Later on this articulated tradition, got deep rooted among the Christians of Kerala. They supported the first century origin with some mystifying stories like the Brahmin conversions, churches built by St. Thomas, names of families converted. This article is a continuation of that. I doubt whether it is worth editing this article. There is no guarantee that the editing will be left there long.Neduvelilmathew (talk) 16:58, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
