Wanted to know whats the 'notability' of a teen double-entreprenur who has been featured in Hindustan times, Economic Times, EENADU and various internet blogs about his two startup ventures. I saw an article was deleted for this reason and was curious. Since youre an admin, you will still have access to the deleted page's content. Article name - Akshay Agrawal - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akshay_Agrawal Please let me know on if its notable or not and what to do next . Cheers. Thanks in advance.

Elections have begun for five community members of the Funds Dissemination Committee, the Foundation's volunteer body for judging and recommending millions of dollars worth of annual grants to affiliates in the movement. The election lasts just eight days, from Sunday 3 May until 23:59 UTC on Sunday 10 May, so at the time of publication, voters will need to act promptly.
Like colliding ocean liners, rousing entertainment and harsh reality merged ungainly in this week's top 10 list. The much heralded pay-per-view pummeling of Manny Pacquiao by Floyd Mayweather, Jr. dominated the list's top slots, giving this list one of its highest total view counts in months.

Casual viewers may think I've posted the same list twice. But no, readers just happen to be really interested in May 2's Big Fight. In fact, last week was just the weigh-in and the trash talk. This week, the numbers actually increased.

The list is topped this week by Danish scientist Inge Lehmann, thanks to a Google Doodle celebrating her 127th birthday. Lehmann discovered in 1936 that the Earth has a solid inner core. It is sometimes surprising to realize how recently such basic scientific knowledge of the Earth, which we now take for granted, was discovered.
Wikipedia editors logging in on May 19 found themselves walking into an unexpected amount of anti-vandal work to keep the site in line with its extensive biographies of living persons policy. A plethora of Wikipedia articles related to the United States House Committee on Appropriations, and the fifty-one representatives serving on it, have been hit by a raft of anonymous editors making often vulgar edits referencing "chicken fucker," or more creative combinations: "sexual conduct", "sexual congress", "fornicator", "intimate relations", or "trysts with chickens."
Three articles, seven lists, and seven pictures were featured on the English Wikipedia.

This week, we had the pleasure of interviewing WikiProject Molecular and Cellular Biology, which has come a long way since our last interview in 2008. Like most projects, it has a long member list, but only a small subset of that group regularly contributes. With 28 featured articles and 58 top-importance start class ones, the project has clearly had some success, but has a ways to go. We talked to three regular project contributors.
The Arbitration Committee has an unusually large case load at present. Although perhaps not on a par with the high-profile, multi-party cases seen towards the end of last year and the beginning of this year, with five open cases the arbitrators are likely to be kept busy for the next several weeks.

Fifteen featured articles, four featured lists, and six featured pictures were promoted this week.
Wikipedia's articles on drugs are pretty good – good enough to impress even doctors. A new research study adds some substance to that impression.
As usual for the time of year, pop culture rules this week. The start of summer vacation in the US means a focus on summer movies, particularly blockbuster sequels Avengers: Age of Ultron, Pitch Perfect 2 and Mad Max: Fury Road.
...allegedly. In a post to wikitech-l, Steven Walling pointed out that the TV show CSI: Cyber had used a screenshot of MediaWiki's HTML output and claimed it was responsible for blowing up printers.

Hindi News SitesWe are a global network of Journalists, Activists and Students. The most interesting thing about this extensive system is that it draws its strength from the common man. We live to service ordinary people by bringing them fresh, in-depth news from any corner of the world and at any cost. We abide by our promise to touch the core issues of everyday news that impact the larger good of the society and the world. This website is a small initiative to bring to life our mission and vision of what journalism should mean in today’s corrupt and manipulative society. It’s a space for free speech that cannot be censored by those who are die-hard courtiers in the corridors of power. This is not a place for intellectual news barons who kowtow to money muscle or power yielding machineries of our society; but a place for straightforward, honest people with true journalistic sensibilities at heart. Khojinews is home to those who hold their heads up high and speak their mind without fear and without mincing their words. We introduce common man as Media activists and provide them with a platform to speak their heart out and to write about anything they feel has a relevance to the current societal scenario. We encourage the sensitive coverage of news of international to local importance. What sets us apart from other such networks is our commitment to provide comprehensive news in great detail, tracing it from its very source, understanding its genesis, trailing its developmental trajectory to its present situation. We believe that inside every curious, truth-seeking individual lays the latent potential of a world-known journalist. Hence, we have developed our own educational program for such cub journalists. However, budding journalists as well as working journalists too can avail of this opportunity to hone their skills and excel in this profession. Our learning program can make one aware about the new technology and techniques of News production and programming. It is guaranteed to give one an edge over the others in this competitive world. Our Team of experts and who’s who of media are at your disposal to answer all your queries.
