User talk:Hrishikes

When you add text to articles such as you did in July 2012 to Margaret Percy, do not add links to external sites in the body of the text. Instead place them in ref tags and make them into citations. For example as snippet of text you added to Margaret Percy is:

• Dorothy (c. 1475 - 1527): married

So replace it with

• Dorothy (c. 1475 - 1527):^[1] married

Notes

I see from the rest of your edit to that page that you are already familiar with how to create an inline citation using reference tags (as described in WP:CITE), but it also seems that you are not familiar with the subsection WP:CITEHOW of the CITE guideline that explains the information that needs to be provided for a full citation, or with WP:SOURCES that describes what is an acceptable source.

• WP:EXTERNAL explains that external links such as "Dorothy" should not be placed in the body of the text.
• WP:CITEHOW explains how to format a citation (which placing it directly in the text as you did means it is not adequate as a citation)
• WP:SOURCE explains that Dorothy should not be used as a source for information in a Wikipedia article because it is not a reliable source (See also WP:RS). You can use that rootsweb page and pages from similar sites if they in turn cites a reliable source for the information. In which case cite both in the Wikipedia citation as described in WP:SAYWHEREYOUREADIT. If you are not sure if a source is reliable you can always ask at WP:RS/N.

Please go through you edits and fix any text where you have added external links to the body of an article. -- PBS (talk) 13:10, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

As this article says "This page is intended to reflect the page Genealogical relationships of Presidents of the United States." I am notifying all those who !voted in the AfD for that article about this AfD discussion. Dougweller (talk) 21:53, 10 December 2012 (UTC)

Hey, I saw you put work into getting the cv material out of this and putting it on this talk page. I'm going to delete it as an orphaned talk page, but do you want the info to work on in your userspace or something? If so I can undelete it and move it to wherever you say. Or do you think anyone else might want it in their userspace? Peace, delldot ∇. 03:45, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

Any chance you could resolve a disambig here? There are two ancient texts in the disambig.Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:59, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

Sfan00 IMG, Are you referring to the work Garga Samhita mentioned in the previous birth section? Obviously, the work refers to the one on the life of Krishna, and not the astrological work. Hrishikes (talk) 17:10, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

Thanks :) Sfan00 IMG (talk) 08:05, 1 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Ancestry charts of the current British royal family is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ancestry charts of the current British royal family until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Agricolae (talk) 21:07, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information. I note that it's possible that the information came from an Indian government site, which I was unable to access.

@Rosguill: -- Header and Organisation sections were my language, except technical terms. Functions section has text from Govt site: https://fiuindia.gov.in/files/About_FIU-IND/About_FIUIND.html which was attributed as source in the article itself. Hrishikes (talk) 06:23, 21 September 2021 (UTC)

Hello, thanks for creating Gopala II. This looks interesting. We can try to take it to DYK. Do you have any hook suggestion, or I can suggest something, please let me know, Regards. --Titodutta (talk) 04:35, 25 November 2021 (UTC)

Hrishikes I see that you are not that active on Wikisource as you used to be and that is a pity as you are the most active user developing the India collection there. There is this Wikipedia:WikiProject India/Condensed proposed roadmap for Wikimedia work in India whose one aim was to develop the Wikisource infrastructure for content absorption there.

See for example this catalog of almost 10k works. Proofreading 10k works should take a lifetime of effort but setting up the infrastructure can be done in few months. Also ping Shyamal, Sitush if you guys want to start the biographies of the authors in Wikipedia as a complement to the Wikisource infrastructure. Solomon7968 14:29, 15 January 2024 (UTC)

Can you start the author pages of Bibhutibhushan Datta and Avadhesh Narayan Singh (created by Krishnachandranvn) on WS? Solomon7968 01:37, 22 July 2025 (UTC)

The work on Hindu math was published in 1935. Not yet PD-US. Hrishikes (talk) 14:42, 22 July 2025 (UTC)

See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/Padma Awards where the aim is to create the Art and Literature & Education Padma lists. Can you go through the above bibliography and develop the author pages of all PD-US works regarding Indian music and dance? Solomon7968 15:20, 22 July 2025 (UTC)
