I have removed the orphan template from Maskanwa since the article is linked with List_of_railway_stations_in_India. WOWॐIndian ^Talk 14:58, 16 March 2014 (UTC)

Hello WOW Indian. I mistakenly did that. I had not checked "Restrict Orphan tag to linkless pages".--Wikiuser13 (talk | contribs) 15:11, 16 March 2014 (UTC)

Hello,

I tried to add the following link to the site https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Indian_states_by_GDP which i see you have been editing often: https://docs.google.com/a/onlinegbc.com/file/d/0B84mZJGGvLJLbU9EU3E1RlBOMHc/edit

The value of my addition is that it has an extra column for <<average>> growth rate over the period 2005-2012. However, when i try to do so, it states that the site is blocked. Could you please try and add it? I oresume that you have greater expertise and this will help everyone.

Warm regards,

Did you know?

The template dialog has been simplified to make it faster and easier to add parameter data. Read the user guide for more information.

Since the last newsletter, the VisualEditor team has mostly worked on changes to the template and image dialogs.

The biggest change in the last few weeks was the redesign of the template dialog. The template dialog now opens in a simplified mode that lists parameters and their descriptions. (The complex multi-item transclusion mode can be reached by clicking on "Show options" from inside the simplified template dialog.) Template parameters now have a bigger, auto-sizing input box for easier editing.  With today's update, searching for template parameters will become case-insensitive, and required template parameters will display an asterisk (*) next to their edit boxes. In addition to making it quicker and easier to see everything when you edit typical templates, this work was necessary to prepare for the forthcoming simplified citation dialog. The main priority in the coming weeks is building this new citation dialog, with the ultimate goal of providing autofill features for ISBNs, URLs, DOIs and other quick-fills. This will add a new button on the toolbar, with the citation templates available picked by each wiki's community. Concept drawings can be seen at mw:VisualEditor/Design/Reference Dialog. Please share your ideas about making referencing quick and easy with the designers.

• The link tool now tells you when you're linking to a disambiguation or redirect page. Pages that exist, but are not indexed by the search engine, are treated like non-existent pages (T56361).
• Wikitext warnings will now hide when you remove wikitext from the paragraph you are editing.
• The character inserter tool in the "Insert" menu has been slightly redesigned, to introduce larger buttons. Your suggestions for more significant changes to the special character inserter are still wanted.
• The page options menu (three bars, next to the Cancel button) has expanded. You can create and edit redirect pages, set page options like __STATICREDIRECT__, __[NO]INDEX__ and __[NO]NEWEDITSECTION__, and more.  New keyboard shortcuts are listed there, and include undoing the last action, clearing formatting, and showing the shortcut help window. If you switch from VisualEditor to wikitext editing, your edit will now be tagged.
• It is easier to edit images. There are more options and they are explained better. If you add new images to pages, they will also be default size.  You can now set image sizes to the default, if another size was previously specified. Full support for upright sizing systems, which more readily adapt image sizes to the reader's screen size, is planned.
• VisualEditor adds fake blank lines so you can put your cursor there. These "slugs" are now smaller than normal blank lines, and are animated to be different from actual blank lines.
• You can use the Ctrl+Alt+S or ⌘ Command+⌥ Option+S shortcuts to open the save window, and you can preview your edit summary when checking your changes in the save window.
• After community requests, VisualEditor has been deployed to the Interlingual Occidental Wikipedia, the Portuguese Wikibooks, and the French Wikiversity.
• Any community can ask for custom icons for their language in the character formatting menu (bold, italic, etc.) by making a request on Bugzilla or by contacting Product Manager James Forrester.

The developers apologize for a regression bug with the deployment on 6 March 2014, which caused the incorrect removal of |upright size definitions on a handful of pages on the English Wikipedia, among others. The root cause was fixed, and the broken pages were fixed soon after.

Looking ahead:  Several template dialogs will become more compact. Looking further out, the developers are also working on support for viewing and editing hidden HTML comments. You will be able to see the Table of Contents change live as you edit the page, rather than it being hidden. In-line language setting (dir="rtl") may be offered to a few Wikipedias soon.

If you have questions or suggestions for future improvements, or if you encounter problems, please let everyone know by posting a note at Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback or by joining the office hours on 19 April 2014 at 2000 UTC. Thank you! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 22:44, 20 March 2014 (UTC)

Please exclude the date pages from your script assisted clean up. This is not helpful. -- Mufka ^{(u) (t) (c)} 09:49, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

@Mufka: What is wrong with it?--Wikiuser13 (talk | contribs) 09:53, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

From WP:DAYS: "In keeping with the layout in the template, entries should be formatted using &ndash; because it is easier to be consistently duplicated in new entries. Often editors will use the - instead of the – without knowing the difference. Since – is proper for these pages, it is better to leave them as &ndash;." Evidence for this problem can be found in the edit immediately following your change here. The editor used - instead of –. -- Mufka ^{(u) (t) (c)} 13:03, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

The knee of a patient is examined with help of radiography after an injury. Hello, Wikiuser13. The following is WikiProject Today's articles for improvement's weekly selection: Injury Previous selections: Assassination of Anwar Sadat • Rare breed (agriculture) Get involved with the TAFI project!

Hi Wikiuser13, thanks for cleaning up the Satyameva Jayate article a bit. However, I have tweaked a couple of minor changes, specifically:

• it is tempting to use the Devanagari danda and double danda characters (। and ॥) wherever one sees | and ||, and I myself used to do it in the past, as the first impression is that these are the more "correct" characters. However, it should be done only for Devanagari text — those characters are in the Devanagari block in Unicode, and inserting some Devanagari-script characters amidst Latin-script characters (e.g. the transliteration) is sub-optimal, and can look very ugly depending on one's font settings (the Devanagari characters are usually rendered in a different font: this different font may be very different from the font used for English characters).
• For similar font reasons, I've found that (in Devanagari) it looks best to leave a space between the verse and danda / double-danda. On your computer the space may seem unnecessary, but often (especially at how font sizes) the Devanagari characters have a tendency to look indistinct, and putting the danda very close tends to make the last character (often a crucial visarga or anusvara) hard to spot.

Cheers, Shreevatsa (talk) 01:54, 28 March 2014 (UTC)

When you tag a redirect for deletion, please put the tag above the redir code. If it goes below, the redirect still operates and the reviewing admin lands on the target page - and thinks that the problem has been solved... I assume that you want Bukka Raya I deleted. If not, detag it quickly or ask me to revive it (depending on circumstances). Peridon (talk) 12:49, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

Hie! Thanks for you appreciation! It looks nice and great if we have more than 9 images. Regarding consensus, you see they are reliable info and wiki is a place for authentic info so as to make this planet a better place for information. There are plenty of pages like 'native Americans' which have more than 9 images. I guess it does not look bad mate. Friend I believe we don't need a consensus to put "Mr. Obama is the president of USA" on Wiki. Thank you. Greetings! Swordofsunnah (talk) 14:13, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
