Two of the users that were active there, those specifically against the inclusion of any of the information have been banned as socks. However I think that we should still continue the process you started.-Serialjoepsycho- (talk) 21:24, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
- Well there's no deadline, so take your time:). The main resistance was those two individuals, but they seem to have been socks. This apparently was a part of some long term abuse by some Indian group. So there is some likelihood they may comeback. Anyway that's what was suggested by some of those that brought the investigation. Hopefully if they see that the process has continued they will move on to something else.-Serialjoepsycho- (talk) 02:22, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for December 24
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Military accessions vital to national interest, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page National Guard. 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.

Hi, you have commented at this.

I'm sorry some of you have had to wait a while for this. There has been a lot of activity, both on this page and on the article itself, as well as the holidays.

Hi Dwaipayan, hope you are well.

Enthiran PR
Hello, Dwaipayanc. As you might have noticed, I had recently taken this film article starring Rajinikanth and Aishwarya Rai to GA status and nominated it for FAC, but it was withdrwan due to WP:PUNC and MOS:LQ issues, most of which have been resolved. Do let me know if you are interested in leaving additional comments at the article's 2nd PR. Thanks. — Ssven2 Speak 2 me 01:16, 29 March 2015 (UTC)

Hello from the team at Featured article review!
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/e/e7/Cscr-featured.svg/100px-Cscr-featured.svg.png)
We are preparing to take a closer look at Featured articles promoted in 2004–2010 that may need a review. We started with a script-compiled list of older FAs that have not had a recent formal review. The next step is to prune the list by removing articles that are still actively maintained, up-to-date, and believed to meet current standards. We know that many of you personally maintain articles that you nominated, so we'd appreciate your help in winnowing the list where appropriate.
Please take a look at the sandbox list, check over the FAs listed by your name, and indicate on the sandbox talk page your assessment of their current status. Likewise, if you have taken on the maintenance of any listed FAs that were originally nominated by a departed editor, please indicate their status. BLPs should be given especially careful consideration.
Thanks for your help! SandyGeorgia (Talk) 18:56, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
