Thank you!
I like working on articles about actors, singers, that stuff. I can avoid creating categories but I can add existing categories if the apply well to article about a living person. I'm just taking things slow. And please call me by first real name Kristine. My hat's goes off to you for respecting me. Nice to meet you. I will ask you if think certain categories are appropriate and can create them if you like. Venustar84 (talk) 15:27, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
- I don't need to change my user name Please just call me Kristine ok? I answer to my first name in a heartbeat. I'm not giving out my last name or address. By the way; if I may ask, are you a man or woman? Venustar84 (talk) 16:14, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
Indian English Newspaper Search not working
Hi just wondering if the Indian English Newspaper Search would be back at some point. Hack (talk) 04:44, 15 August 2014 (UTC)
- Hi, @Hack:, most probably their server is down once again. I need to check from my3gb. For better stability I moved the page from free my3gb to Google Drive here. The URL is ugly, but it has 100% uptime. I changed URL in WP:INDT etc and added a javascript auto-redirect in the my3gb page. --Tito☸Dutta 10:09, 15 August 2014 (UTC)

- Special report: Twitter bots catalogue government edits to Wikipedia
Slate reports that Tom Scott, co-creator of the emoji social network Emojli, created a Twitter bot called Parliament WikiEdits to automatically tweet a link to any Wikipedia edits made from an IP address belonging to the Parliament of the United Kingdom. Scott's bot initially did not tweet any links to edits made from Parliament and, according to Scott, an "insider" reports that their IP addresses changed. Despite this, Scott's Twitter bot has inspired similar creations in numerous other countries.
- Traffic report: Disease, decimation and distraction
It's been a grim few weeks. It says something that formerly arresting crises like the war in Ukraine, Boko Haram and the 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict, despite still being ongoing, have fallen out of the top 10 to make way for the 2014 West Africa Ebola outbreak and the equally if not more intense conflict against the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant.

- News and notes: Media Viewer controversy spreads to German Wikipedia
Wikimedia Foundation staff members have now been granted superpowers that would allow them to override community consensus. The new protection level came as a response to attempts of German Wikipedia administrators to implement a community consensus on the new Media Viewer. "Superprotect" is a level above full protection, and prevents edits by administrators.
- Op-ed: Red links, blue links, and erythrophobia
Erythrophobia is the fear of, or sensitivity to, the colour red. Recently, I have seen more and more erythrophobic Wikipedians; specifically, Wikipedians who are scared of red links. In Wikipedia's early days, red links were encouraged and well-loved, and when I started editing in 2006, this was still mostly the case. Jump forward to 2014, and many editors now have an aversion to red links.
- In the media: Monkey selfie, net neutrality, and hoaxes
The Observer reported (August 2) that Google would "restrict search terms to a link to a Wikipedia article, in the first request under Europe's controversial new 'right to be forgotten' legislation to affect the 110m-page encyclopaedia."

A video primer for teaching Odia alphabet to non-native speakers
thumb|This is the primer I talked about. Would love to hear your feedback about this. --Psubhashish (talk) 20:42, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
- That looks good. Short and long vowels can be explained more. Good work. --Tito☸Dutta 13:12, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
- Just a suggestion, when I see videos or texts I often understand from which direction a letter should be written. Can you capture a drawing board's video (someone writing alphabets), see this channel for example. --Tito☸Dutta 13:15, 28 August 2014 (UTC)

- Arbitration report: Media viewer case is suspended
"On 1 September, the Arbitrators voted to suspend the Media Viewer case for 60 days. After the suspension period is up, the case is to be closed unless the committee votes otherwise. The case suspension comes in response to several new initiatives and policies announced by the Wikimedia Foundation that may make the case moot. In the same motion, the committee declared that Eloquence's resignation of the administrator right was "under the cloud" and that he can only regain the right through another RfA."

Tina Dutta
I looked at the title and thought it said "Tito Dutta". Dyslexia can sure make life interesting. One thing is for sure, she is ALOT better looking than you are. For a double bonus, the creating editor is Vin9. I thought it said Vin09. Two dyslexic moments on one page, plus the subject is ALOT better looking than both of you. Why is it that Indian actresses have to be the most beautiful in the world?
I saw your ad for Ark25/RefScript. Have you seen the new reference script User:Zhaofeng Li/Reflinks? It is a replacement for the recently departed Reflinks scripts. Bgwhite (talk) 06:45, 18 September 2014 (UTC)

- Vin09, not sure what you mean about "May I know about it?" Looks like you didn't understand my message. Cool!!! You really belong in our club of misfits. Tito and I love making fun of each other. Tito is from Kolkata, therefore he isn't too bright and there is alot of to make fun of. Bgwhite (talk) 08:35, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
