Sanaullah Haq[edit]

Hello, a very warm welcome from me! Keep up the great work. I saw that you did a valuable comment at Sanaullah Haq, and you said that Sanaullah Haq returned about 0.2 million of results from Google, right? Then do these 0.2 million results don't make the article notable? Obviously for a crap, you will never get 0.2 million results! The article documents a current event, and Sanaullah Haq may die, as he is already brain-dead, so I will request a review in your comment! The matter is under development, and further may become more notable, as it has also polarized India-Pakistan relations. Thanking you, and waiting for your reply here. Faizan -Let's talk! 08:39, 6 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am waiting for your reply keenly! Faizan -Let's talk! 10:39, 6 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Faizan! Thank you for the very warm welcome! I offer you a cup of tea! I hope you enjoy it! Thanks! -- Ralfan (talk) 17:18, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ah yes! Today I had a cool breakfast, Thanking you! Faizan -Let's talk! 05:55, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

DYK nomination of Samina Baig[edit]

Hello! Your submission of Samina Baig at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! — Maile (talk) 22:28, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Panic not Ralfan, I took the liberty of expanding the Samina Baig article you created, as it didn't quite reach the required amount of words. It is a most fascinating and heart-warming tale, I enjoyed reading it. Hopefully it should pass without further issues. Regards. -- Hillbillyholiday ^talk 04:37, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ways to improve Arunima Sinha[edit]

Hi, I'm Alpedio. Ralfan, thanks for creating Arunima Sinha!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Maybe try renaming the categories, so that they are more descriptive of the content. Also, you need to link this page through other related pages...

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. Alpedio (talk) 16:54, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I just got notified that you want to take Fantasma Inc. down. I'm an intern for James Fotopoulos and since his company has been around a while but still doesn't have a wiki page I was instructed to create one. Let me know specifically why this is a problem, thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Acayo (talk • contribs) 17:03, 26 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hey. My page Fantasma Inc has been deleted because you said it was promotional. It's intention is not to be promotional but to be informational and to help Wikipedia expand it's knowledge of it. Is there a way that the content could be reworded to better suit the criteria the Wikipedia is looking for?

the content was : Fantasma, also Fantasma Entertainment, is a company founded in 1998 by filmmaker James Fotopoulos for the production of his feature film Migrating Forms (1999). In the past 10 years Fantasma has produced an internationally acclaimed body of work, whose credits cover a diverse range of genres within the filmmaking industry. The company currently is owned by brothers James and Peter Fotopoulos and operates out of both Chicago and New York. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Acayo (talk • contribs) 15:04, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please read WP:SOAP. I also tried to explain the reasons on your talk page. Hope it helped! -- Ralfan (talk) 15:19, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
