Could someone familiar with Wikipedia's standards for Indian castes please review this article? It was created evading a salt on Bamraulia and was recently expanded from G4-eligible status to a substantive article by an editor with very few other edits. Thanks. * Pppery * it has begun... 05:11, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
- Also Rajput resistance to Muslim conquests - this seems to be a reasonable topic for an article, but it's evading a salt on Rajput resistance and I would not be surprised if the creator, who has no blocks but very few other edits, is part of the same sockfarm. * Pppery * it has begun... 16:34, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
Separatist POV in Northeast India article[edit]
Recently, the sockfarm Tasumluke has been adding substantial content on some proposed country/separatist movement - WESEA in Northeast India and related articles. While I have reverted obvious POV, that is change of longstanding content based on census data as well as clubbing diverse ethnic groups within their preferred 'groupings', My point is whether this large chunk of info anout the proposed country/region (WESEA) be included in an article on administrative division, considering information on Khalistan movement or Tamil nationalism aren't mentioned in respective regional articles, not even in the Punjab and Tamil Nadu. Even Jammu and Kashmir (union territory) has a passing mention of the widely covered separatist activities in the state/UT. I believe, the newly added content related to WESEA should be merged to Insurgency in Northeast India, something similar was done by the sockfarm here. We already have a section 'Northeast India#20th century separatist unrest', which is more than enough. Pinging @Gotitbro, Chaipau, DaxServer, Chronikhiles, Manasbose, PadFoot2008, RegentsPark, Utcursch, Usernamekiran, and Vanamonde93:. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 10:39, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
- Agree with @Fylindfotberserk. The added content should better be added to Insurgency in Northeast India or maybe even deleted as the article already covers the added information in great detail. This is, as already mentioned by Fylindfotberserk, also keeping in mind the fact that separatist movements in Punjab, Jammu and Kashmir, and Tamil Nadu recieve no or minimal mention in the articles about their respective states/territories. In my opinion, even the section Northeast India#20th century separatist unrest is too much and should be converted into a single line. PadFoot2008 (talk) 11:05, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
- yes. This will also establish a consistency/protocol for similar articles. —usernamekiran (talk) 17:59, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

Participate in Coordinate Me 2024 and win gifts[edit]
Please participate in Coordinate Me 2024 during May 2024 and win gifts. Support in improving the quality of geographical coordinates for the villages of Andhra Pradesh. This helps improve maps in Wikipedia, and OpenStreetMap. As a first priority, add coordinates for revenue village entries using AP State GIS portal. This is very easy. From the required villages (Example query for Guntur district), search for the coordinates in AP State GIS portal using Geocode locator menu. You can use village name and mandal/district name if required. Click coordinate symbol in Measurement menu and move the mouse to the place name and copy the displayed coordinates. Paste these coordinates and edit to change the order and separate them with a comma. Add reference with "stated in" and value as "APSGISP" (Example addition) In the past Telugu wikipedian as part of photography contest, added coordinates using online sources such as Google. But these can not be transferred to Wikidata, as wikidata is CC-0 licensed. Currently fo Andhra pradesh, there are coordinate entries for about 5000 revenue villages out of 16000 revenue villages. Many of them also are defective due to import from various wikipedias without validation check. This activity is very helpful for improving maps on Wikipedia and also for providing OSM Telugu maps using wikidata mapping to OSM. For more information check my OSM diary entry "Improving geodata accuracy on OSM and Wikidata" . Enroll here with your wikipedia account and start contributing. Contact me for any clarifications. Users interested in improving entries of other states can also join and contribute to the effort. ----Arjunaraoc (talk) 12:46, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
