Bug

[edit]

Not your fault but I thought you should know; Wikipedia_talk:Twinkle#AfD_bug. -- Cheers, Riley Huntley 00:54, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop!

[edit]

Dear Greatuser, Thank for your contributions to Kuch Toh Log Kahenge. However, your edits have been reverted as the plote section is too long and there is already a summarized section titles as plot. And secondly more than two non-free images are not allowed in a single article. Please respect the policies of Wikipedia. For more information please visit the following articles:

However, if you would like to experiment further, please use the sandbox instead. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --Tamravidhir (Jiva is Shiva!) 14:59, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

stop Deleting references is pure vandalism. Stop or you may be blocked from editing. And "opening credits of the show" is no citation. And logo means the LOGO (Hope you know the meaning) and not the "BODY of the protagonist". And not even when the show is to air. Just the Logo. --Tamravidhir (Jiva is Shiva!) 15:03, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You Stop, Removing long edits and Images from the articles which should remain Greatuser (talk) 15:10, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
You are so stubborn! Man...what long edits? Please read the mentioned articles. Phir zaban ladana. "Removing images" can't you read more than two non-free images not allowed. I am being polite don't start a fight, or else you may be permanently blocked like Dadjan. --Tamravidhir (Jiva is Shiva!) 15:16, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (File:Galli galli.jpg)

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Galli galli.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:21, 25 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The article List of accolades received by Don 2 has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Article is not too long and references are copy pasted directly from main article.Information is given about film in lead section but not regarding awards.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. ---zeeyanketu talk to me 06:44, 25 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion declined: Blackton, Arkansas

Hello Greatuser.

Your reverts

[edit]

On the page of 2013 Bollywood movies, would you be able to explain your reverts of the addition of 100 years, as it is sourced with an acceptable source? gwickwiretalkedits 16:15, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Off Course, Because 2012 is the year for completion of 100 years in Bollywood (Read the page Bollywood), Thank You Greatuser (talk) 14:28, 3 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I assume you meant of course, but anyways: The Bollywood page says this: "Raja Harishchandra (1913), by Dadasaheb Phalke, was the first silent feature film made in India." and the source provided for the edit confirms that. I'd suggest that you take a look, as 100 years is 2013 according to these two sources. Provide a source for the 2012 date or else please stop reverting. gwickwiretalkedits 23:27, 3 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've Reviewed the Nomination but this is not my work to give it a status Greatuser (talk) 12:18, 5 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
"I'm not Reviewer" - WP:Reviewing is for the Reviewer right for pending changes, not the process of reviewing pages for statuses (GA, FA, B class etc.) - Also, just a suggestion, as the reviewer, you might as well finish the job of updating the status. -- Cheers, Riley 16:39, 5 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
As Thine Antique Pen stated "[..] if the reviewer believes that the criteria are met, then the reviewer should list it as a Good article." (WP:RGA). Thank you for your time. -- Cheers, Riley 18:32, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Claimed good articles

[edit]

I noticed that you claimed credit for Rani Mukerji. The first two edits you made were reverted. Same for the third. This happened again with the fourth, fifth and then your final edit. You cannot claim GA credit for this. All edits were also made after the article was promoted to GA.

I see that you also claim GA credit for Kajol. Almost all of your edits were reverted here, with a single edit staying on the article. (One and Two.) Again, all of your edits were made after the promotion.

The final article I looked at was Vidya Balan - which you claimed GA credit for, despite the fact that it's a featured article. Here almost all of your edits were reverted and you started an edit war. See 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 and 18.

You just shouldn't and can't claim GA credit (or FA) for any of these, with contributions as minor as these and edit warring on the article. Please do not claim credit for them, or any articles where you make minor changes, in the future. Thanks. Thine Antique Pen (talk) 17:08, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have not claimed that these credits (GA or FA) goes to me, I just have made more contributions rather than others See the page and User:Greatuser#Articles I've Worked on The Page says that the articles i have worked on (not articles i have promoted to GA or FA) and i just have given the status to the page to define page's status, Thank You Greatuser (talk) 12:38, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well, you shouldn't state that you've worked on them. It is wrong to say that you are a significant contributor to an article where almost all of your changes were reverted. Also, explain the following?
  • "This user has contributed to many good articles."
  • "This user has contributed to many Featured articles."
My issue is that you have not contributed to any good or featured articles before they gained the status - meaning that you therefore cannot claim credit. Thine Antique Pen (talk) 16:15, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I just have claimed that i have contributed to many GA or FA not promoted/help them to GA or FA Greatuser (talk) 17:25, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It's interesting that I have been a major contributor for all the 3 articles that he has taken credit for. Even more interesting is that all of his edits were non-constructive and were reverted back. So, 'Greatuser', kindly remove such claims from your profile. smarojit (buzz me) 06:13, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Zara Nachke Dikha.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Zara Nachke Dikha.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 16:05, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Kaali - Ek Punar Avatar, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Show (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

False claims

[edit]

Greatuser, I see that you claim to have "worked" on Shahrukh Khan, Salman Khan, Vidya Balan and other such articles. Let me remind you that all of your edits on Balan's page were non-constructive and were removed. Also, your edits on Shahrukh and Salman's pages are minor (you have less than 13 edits) and mostly non-constructive. Keeping that in mind, I request you to remove such claims from your userpage. Also, i see that you have nominated Shahrukh's article for GA without consulting with any of the major contributors. Please refrain from doing so in the future. --smarojit (buzz me) 07:01, 13 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

CSD for Sapnon Hai Pyaar Ki Kahani

[edit]

Hello,

You recently nominated Sapnon Hai Pyaar Ki Kahani for speedy deletion. Please note that the category you tagged it under(blatant hoax/vandalism) was incorrect, as the subject of the article is verifiable and notable. Please also note that an article's quality is not criterion itself for deletion, and we should always try to improve articles than deleting them.

The article under question undoubtedly belongs here, and I suggest you please look into Wikipedia:CSD before nominating any further articles.

TheOriginalSoni (talk) 15:15, 13 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The Problem is not that article is not improved, unreferenced, oudated or any other thing.. The Problem is that the article is Blatant/Hoax and please don't create hoax(es), A hoax is an attempt to trick an audience into believing that something false is real. Since Wikipedia is an "encyclopedia anyone can edit", it can be abused to create hoaxes Greatuser (talk) 15:23, 13 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
My mistake. I apologize. I really should have seen before I brought that article from AfC to article-space. Thank you for pointing that out.
Renominated under G-7, which has a surety of passing, compared to the G-3 which would require admin judgement. TheOriginalSoni (talk) 15:43, 13 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

STiki talkback

You have new message/s Hello. You have a new message at WT:STiki's talk page.

The article has failed to meet GA criteria. However, some suggestions are there in the review page. The article has potential. Please consider re-submitting it after appropriate improvement. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 22:08, 13 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A suggeston for you

[edit]

Hello,

While it is nice to see a new editor (especially from India) who is actively interested in editing Wikipedia, I would suggest that you get to know a few things around here before you actually work extensively. For example, it usually is not a habit for users to add articles they have nominated or reviewed to their user page [At the same time, please also note that since we are talking of user pages, it would not be that much of a problem]

However I am quite concerned over how you reviewed Bade achche lagte hai, for example. It might do you good if you learn up on how the system works before diving headfirst - One of the reasons why i do not do GA reviews. Also, you might be interested in this programme - Wikipedia:Adopt-a-user.

Reverts

[edit]

Hello, Greatuser.

I've just had a look at some of your reverts and disagree with some of them. I would also suggest expanding on the STiki edit summary in some cases.

This edit should not have been classed as vandalism, you should have manually classed it as blanking. I could have considered this to be good faith. This edit is not vandalism. This should not have been reverted at all. This edit isn't vandalism and should not have been reverted. Why did you revert this edit? It seemed to have a source - just. This should have been classed as good faith, not vandalism. Use edit summaries... This was good faith - they tried to add a source. Despite it being unreliable, it was not vandalism. Needs better edit summary. Not vandalism at all. Not vandalism. Not bad enough to be classed as vandalism - AGF. What is this? You reverted the removal of a good faith edit as vandalism. This again. More like good faith. Different edit summary needed. AGF. AGF without research. Not vandalism. Not vandalism. Not really vandalism. Just capitals, not vandalism - AGF. Would not class as vandalism. Should not have been reverted. This must be the "worst" revert of them all. It should not have been reverted and it seems like you have added a massive paste from a website or book back into the article.

On an unrelated note, why did you make this edit? Thine Antique Pen (talk) 09:26, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings Greatuser. You've surely seen the concerns raised here and elsewhere about your use of the STiki tool. For 150 edits yesterday you reverted 95% of the edits you reviewed. STiki has some pretty good performance, but not *that* good (we're used to seeing rates < 50%). We have to ask that you voluntarily stop using the tool for a period until you demonstrate better judgement (if this is not respected, you will be blocked, but I trust it will not come to this). The most direct route to achieving this is to enroll in the Counter vandalism academy and find a mentor there. Thank you, West.andrew.g (talk) 16:28, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Greatuser. I originally declined your request for rollback but having seen that Andrew accorded you the use of Stiki, I granted the right. In hindsight, I should have still declined. However, I will not be revoking the right at this time, but I will be closely watching your edits. If they do not improve, I will have no option but to remove the right again. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 02:34, 16 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Greatuser: Don't blow it. It's a great tool, and you'll be sorry if you lose it. When it doubt, don't click rollback!! Truuuussssstttt Anna! Anna Frodesiak (talk) 02:37, 16 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am new to wikipedia and can't get my head around the referencing. I work for East Street Arts and I'm trying to edit the out-of-date information on the current page. I spent a whole day on it and now my edits have been removed, even though they are factually correct. The version you have reverted to contains incorrect information. I need to change many sections and remove old material, but I'm not sure how to do that without you removing them. It's all new to me so might need to give me advice. Do I need to archive everything, rather than delete it? Thanks for your help! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.147.25.239 (talk) 11:26, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Good/Featured Articles

[edit]

I'd just like some explanation here. See, every review/nomination you've listed on your talkpage you review/nominate as "in my view it meets the criteria". Then, in the case of the nominations, they are opposed quickly. In the case of the reviewers, other editors quickly come and point out major glaring problems with the articles. I'd like to request that you take a look over the Good Article Criteria and Featured Article Criteria before making any more nominations or reviews, or explain your previous actions here. Thanks. No need for talkback messages, I'm watching this page. gwickwiretalkedits 03:35, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am newly user so I can't easily point out mistakes for the articles but slowly slowly I am getting aware about Wikipedia, So I am reviewing nomination so that i can get aware about WP:WIAGA, WP:GA, WP:FA and such pages.. Thank You Greatuser (talk) 04:54, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Would it be OK for you to stop reviewing nominations until you are aware about WP:WIAGA, WP:GA, WP:FA and such pages? Thank you. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 04:57, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Basically our point is that you shouldn't be reviewing or nominating articles for GA or FA status unless you are confident you can finish the review/nomination. It's a lot of work to get an article to GA status. People spend weeks getting feedback on the review page and updating the article to make it work. It's not something that can be done in just a "I'm opening this review and I see no problems I fix them myself if I see any". You need to spend probably hours looking at every word in the article to make sure there aren't any problems. I'm not sure that there's any articles that have passed with absolutely no concerns ever. Please sit back and watch some reviews by others without commenting, and then maybe you can start reviewing articles when you have a better understanding of how the process works. Also, I noticed that users have suggested adoption for you in the past. I think this would be a great idea for you, as it does show you the different areas of Wikipedia in a way that is pretty hard to do on your own. gwickwiretalkedits 20:15, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Rollback

[edit]

Hi Greatuser. I'm just letting you know that I have removed your use of the rollback tool. I am very concerned that you are incorrectly reverting edits as vandalism. Also, I'm asking you to stop using Stiki now, until Andrew has been able to review the situation. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 13:03, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

But, Why? After I claimed that give me a chance to re-prove, My edits really improved please don't rv this right after that i used the right properly please Re-grant me this right I will no more do such works, Thank You Greatuser (talk) 13:10, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry I've had to do this Greatuser, but you clearly still do not yet understand what conqstitutes vandalism. You can continue to do manual reverts, but please be extremely carful which you label as vandalism. Please stop using Stiki until Andrew has spoken. It's better for you stop now before someone raises an issue on an Admin noticeboard. Thanks. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 13:20, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
May I now invite you to join the Counter Vandalism Unit? Once you graduate from there, I am sure you will be given the rollback tool back. TheOriginalSoni (talk) 15:54, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thank You TheOriginalSoni for your great suggestion but now it's the time i want to be Semi-Retired So I wanna leave Wikipedia, Any other day i may join back wikipedia But Really I can't understand rules and regulations of Wikipedia, Thank You Greatuser (talk) 18:24, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

December 2012

[edit]

Thank you for trying to keep Wikipedia free of vandalism. However, one or more edits you labeled as vandalism, such as the edit at Poacher (fish), are not considered vandalism under Wikipedia policy. Wikipedia has a stricter definition of the word "vandalism" than common usage, and mislabeling edits as vandalism can discourage newer editors. Please read Wikipedia:NOTVAND for more information on what is and is not considered vandalism. Thank you. Psychonaut (talk) 17:22, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

An imprinted gemstone and ancient saying for you!

Font

[edit]

The use of the Double Feature font actually requires that you credit the author. Its much like a Creative Commons license. See here and here. To avoid issues, please add Double Feature font by David Shetterly somewhere on the page you are using the font. In this case on your front user page. If you fail to do so, it will be subject to editing and changing back to a regular font or having the attribution added for you.--Amadscientist (talk) 02:39, 23 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have gone ahead and made the bold edit to add the attribution. If you dislike this we can return the username to a normal font.--Amadscientist (talk) 02:42, 23 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Is that true? IANAL, but wouldn't any attribution requirement be invoked either when the font is installed or when printed in hard copy or some device independent format. All Greatuser's page does is make a modest request to render certain text in the Double Feature font, if available - a request that my browser can't honor because I haven't installed that font. Shetterly's right to attribution would apply when the font is displayed, but not when it is merely mentioned. Kilopi (talk) 07:11, 23 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The issue is simple. It is being "used" on Wikipedia in "any manner" which, means I, having the font (as many Rocky Horror fans do) will see it displayed...and prominantly. This is about allowing any use on a site that as well requires attribution. I don't think this is controversial. However we can simply remove it from showing up at all and return it to a regular font no matter who has it. The same is true with fonts that may have a copyright. It displays because the code is written to display it.--Amadscientist (talk) 07:30, 23 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Want to join me and (possibly) other users to collaborate on improving India related articles? TheOriginalSoni (talk) 14:37, 25 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I really have had bad contributions to Wikipedia, my intention was not to disrupt Wikipedia But now i have decided to re-join wikipedia and will try to improve Wikipedia, Thank You Marry Christmas to you too Greatuser (talk) 15:38, 25 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
No Problem dude!!! ShIt happens!! The only reasons your contributions were not as good as the others was because you were not trained in the various policies that things are done. You are much more willing to help Wikipedia than I am and we need exactly that sort of enthusiasm in our new editors!!!
I believe that if you are guided properly, you shall become one of Wiki's more active and most contributing members (like the ones whose names you see everywhere.) That way, you will be way more constructive that you are right now. If you are willing to, I (and other editors) can quickly help you do that. That way, you wont have to learn by making mistakes over which others have to stop you every time you make a mistake. What do you say to that? TheOriginalSoni (talk) 17:30, 25 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
In my views you are absolutely right and i have decided to to be trained by expert(s) in Wikipedia, Greatuser (talk) 17:46, 25 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thats brilliant. Good luck and I hope you have a nice stay at Wikipedia!!! Feel free to ask me if you have any questions (FYI I pride myself on making quality replies on the moodbar feedback. You may want so see some good replies there just to get a good clue.) TheOriginalSoni (talk) 05:01, 26 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This is very nice! Glad you decided to return and thanks to TheOriginalSoni for the wonderful way they made this posting.--Amadscientist (talk) 05:06, 26 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merging info

[edit]

For future reference.."If the proposer of the merge did not start a discussion for the merge, and it is not obvious why the articles should be merged, it is acceptable to remove the tags. If the reason for the merge is obvious, you can either merge the articles boldly, or start a new discussion." If you don't begin a discussion as the merg proposer...it is almost immediatly a stale merge. So unless it is obvious..the tag could have been removed without it being considered an edit war. See Wikipedia:Merging, Help:Merging and Wikipedia:WikiProject Merge.--Amadscientist (talk) 07:13, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"If it is not obvious". I believed it was more than obvious, but seems I was wrong and some people did not notice the great deal of overlap between the two articles. My fault, next time I will explain everything like to schoolchildren. kashmiri 09:23, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I have not claimed that it's not obvious or any thing else.. But i just have claimed that when you merge or do any other action, you have to give a valid reason so it can be clarified to every user, and can be done (not)against the page which you want to do an action, Thank You A Great User 10:42, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
If an editor is using the merge proposal process, it is up to them to do it correctly or it creates a huge backlog....like there already is. Calling other editors "Schoolchildren" is a sign of NAGF Kashmiri. Tags are routinely removed for lack of discussion. No discussion created means no one discusses and no consensus is determined.--Amadscientist (talk) 11:04, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your response to Feedback Special:FeedbackDashboard/65510

[edit]

It would have been a good idea to check this user's edits Special:Contributions/Turtlees which is a vandalism only account before thanking them for a feedback in which they were happy to vandalize Wikipedia (where the feedback provided was after that account had vandalized various articles). Next time, try not to blanket copy paste messages on each feedback before checking the person's contributions. Thank you. TheGeneralUser (talk) 23:39, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know you did something silly.

Need some help?

[edit]

Hey,

I see that you are trying to nominate List of awards and nominations received by Vidya Balan. I just breezed through the nomination that you sent, and I found that there were many places you marked "Done" but did not edit the article appropriately. Do you want me to co-nominate the article? I could help address all of those concerns. If your answer is a yes, first remove ALL the "Done"s you have posted. Let me check if they are actually done or not

Cheers, TheOriginalSoni (talk) 13:09, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You May go on improving the article list so that it can become Featured list A Great User 13:12, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
No no no!! The article is primarily yours, and I wont interfere in it unless you specifically state so. I just saw you might be needing help, so i asked. If you want me to co-nom, then please remove all the "done"s from there, or allow me to. Then I shall look into it. TheOriginalSoni (talk) 13:36, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
OK go on through the page A Great User 13:50, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Alright. Dont edit either of those pages for some time now. Only when I am done. TheOriginalSoni (talk) 14:09, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

STOP! Dont edit before I say you can. I am in the middle of an edit, and you editing the article will lead to non-recoverable edit conflicts! Just wait before doing anything to the page or the FLC nomination page. When I say you can, only then edit please.

Alright. I am taking a short break for now. There are way too many problems with the article. See what changes I have made, and please learn from them. See which are the problems that I have marked as solved, and how I have solved them. Make any edits you want in the next few minutes. When I want you to stop and allow me to do them, I'll tell you. TheOriginalSoni (talk) 14:58, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Will get back to editing again now. I hope you do not mind my archiving of some of your threads. TheOriginalSoni (talk) 19:34, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Um WHAT??? STOP!!!!
Please read twice and thrice before making a single change here. I said I was preferring PR over FLC. This is because the article will not go through FLC if it remains as is. It needs to go through PR once properly before FLC. Please remove your last comment, ans re-open the PR. TheOriginalSoni (talk) 08:41, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
If i re-open the pr then FLC has to be rv so whatever you want you may do it on main article without a pr review A Great User 08:51, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
So what? Thats not a problem. [See my Withdrawing of the FLC]
The thing is there are way too many problems in the list to be able to stand FLC [As you have already seen]. A PR helps solve 90% of them before you go to FLC for that very purpose. Close the FLC, re-open the PR; let it run; and then lets come back to FLC. TheOriginalSoni (talk) 09:01, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
