Maybe a lot of people have told you this, but since I've just discovered your user page for a while → pop by to say your user page looks incredibly gorgeous, wow ... with all those splendid featured pictures . You must be a brilliant designer! Best PeaceNT 14:13, 3 February 2007 (UTC) Hey, wait! I see you already have many barnstars, but I want to give you one. Again, your user page is awesome!

Sorry for the misunderstanding -- Dskluz 02:10, 4 February 2007 (UTC) It's okay, thanks! S.D. ¿п? § 04:11, 4 February 2007 (UTC) Change to Samuel R. Delany page was not vandalism. "Stratum" is the singular for "strata". The wording was correct and was not vandalism, therefore the threat of banning was not appropriate. Just thought you should know. --Kdring 00:19, 4 February 2007 (UTC) Replied on the user's talk page.

Cheers my friend. ~ Arjun 16:41, 4 February 2007 (UTC) Bengali Wikipedia Hello Sd31415, I was just wondering if you have heard of the Bengali Wikipedia (bn.wiki.x.io). The Bengali Wikipedia is desparately in need of more Bengali articles about India and West Bengal. But anyway, I just thought that you would like to have a look there, because despite it is a still-developing Wikipedia, it is the second biggest Indic-language Wikipedia. অনুগ্রহ করে বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়াটি দেখুন। --Wolftalk 16:12, 4 February 2007 (UTC) Thanks for your invitation, but I probably won't join. Even though I fluently speak Bengali, I'm not fast at writing it. Unfortunately, the computer that I frequently use doesn't render Indic text. Your last sentence right now looks like this to me: ??????? ??? ????? ????????????? ?????? Sorry, but I think I'll stick around to editing this Wikipedia for now.

Thanks a bunch, riana_dzasta 08:33, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Replied on the user's talk page. S.D. ¿п? § 13:39, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Excellent. I've found some nice images on the commons, so I'll nominate them now, and I've sorted all the bios and articles so that they're ready for {{random portal component}}. What do you think of the portal colour scheme? riana_dzasta 14:25, 11 February 2007 (UTC) The portal's color scheme is very nice. Cheers, S.D. ¿п? § 14:38, 11 February 2007 (UTC) [Reset] Hey, good work, now the article and the bios are randomising :) riana_dzasta 14:51, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Great work! You beat me to adding the RPC, I was doing it and then I came across an edit conflict. Now all we need is randomizing the selected pictures. S.D. ¿п? § 14:56, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Yeah, go for it! I'm currently nominating a few more... riana_dzasta 15:12, 11 February 2007 (UTC) [Reset] Oh yeah, and I've written up a layout for the pics here, so you can use that. I think you already know how to, but if you don't, gimme a yell :) riana_dzasta 15:17, 11 February 2007 (UTC) I know, but thanks for asking! There are currently 4 selected pictures. Cheers! S.D. ¿п? § 15:28, 11 February 2007 (UTC) 4 is better than 1! :) I've nominated a few, and I'll keep searching Commons for more. riana_dzasta 15:33, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Great job on the portal guyz, looking great. ~ Arjun 15:37, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Thanks, Arjun! S.D. ¿п? § 15:46, 11 February 2007 (UTC) [Reset] LOL! Thanks SO much for making that list, I wasn't looking forward to it ;) The portal's already had a peer review some time ago, and I think that there's really nothing to be concerned about - maybe it can go straight to featured portal candidates. Let's add a few more images, maybe, and then take it through. Thanks again for making that list (phew!) riana_dzasta 15:47, 11 February 2007 (UTC) You're welcome. =D 20 of everything sounds like a good plan to me. Cheers! S.D. ¿п? § 15:49, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Probably not... but I'd ask Dwaipayanc or P.K.Niyogi first, they might have different plans for it... riana_dzasta 16:04, 11 February 2007 (UTC) I placed a note on his talk page. Cheers, S.D. ¿п? § 16:16, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Heh, I just asked Arjun if he would delete that stack of subpages for us, but it's good you informed Dwaipayan about them as well. It's starting to look quite nice! riana_dzasta 16:20, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Thanks! S.D. ¿п? § 16:27, 11 February 2007 (UTC) [Reset] Eh, I've had enough for the day :) High five on a job well done, though. Once we have a little more content, it should be ready for featured! Take care, I'm off. riana_dzasta 16:28, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Last post - the IIT Kharagpur pic probably shouldn't be used as a selected pic, because it's also being used in the article (I just got both of them together). OK, now I'm definitely going :) riana_dzasta 16:31, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Done. ~ Arjun 16:43, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Thanks, Arjun (also can you delete... :P). I've changed the picture on the selected article, Riana. See you two later, S.D. ¿п? § 16:47, 11 February 2007 (UTC) [Reset] Randomising the DYK was a Very Good Idea. Good work! I also like the navigation template, that's another great idea. Maybe the two of us should pick a random Indian portal each week and get it up to featured ;) riana_dzasta 00:59, 12 February 2007 (UTC) Replied on the user's talk page. S.D. ¿п? § 01:12, 12 February 2007 (UTC) Portal:wb - more Hi! thanks a lot for working on the portal. I have just 1 query. The archive of Did you know section is in red. But previously that archive contained some previous DYKs. And that archive page is not in the deleted subpages list!--Dwaipayan (talk) 18:44, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Arjun has undeleted it. =D Happy editing, S.D. ¿п? § 21:18, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Done and doner, if you need anything else give me a call. I love putting my tools to the test :). ~ Arjun 22:30, 11 February 2007 (UTC) Thanks a lot, Arjun! I've sent you an email. Happy editing, S.D. ¿п? § 22:32, 11 February 2007 (UTC) [Reset] Thanks a lot for all the support extended to brighten up the Portal. The change is really standing out.

Howrah Bridge, though a smaller article, could be a good candidate for selected article, as it can be provided with references and inline citations (hopefully). On the other hand, both Durga Puja and Bengali cuisine lack good references, and are absolutely deficient in inline citations, though both articles sounds comprehensive. Howrah Bridge may have some problems regarding comprehensiveness. Let's put those as candidates. Regarding direct promotion to selected pictures, I don't have any problems. But will it be ok once the portal is up for featured candidacy? I dont have much idea, but someone may tell that images were not selected by nomination procedure. Already we have the whole biography section which has not been chosen by nomination procedure.--Dwaipayan (talk) 14:19, 12 February 2007 (UTC) Replied on the user's talk page. S.D. ¿п? § 23:51, 12 February 2007 (UTC) I personally feel that only featured articles should be used on the front page, maybe even rename the entire selected articles section to 'featured articles', as portals are really all about highlighting the quality of our content. What do you think? riana_dzasta 23:54, 12 February 2007 (UTC) Replied on the user's talk page. S.D. ¿п? § 00:11, 13 February 2007 (UTC) [Reset] I wouldn't worry about the articles on that count - that isn't really a fault of the portal, or even a fault at all really! But for images, I would definitely push for at least 15. riana_dzasta 23:59, 12 February 2007 (UTC) Replied on the user's talk page. S.D. ¿п? § 00:11, 13 February 2007 (UTC) Yeah, I think it's pretty much ready too. I'm still hunting for images though... :( riana_dzasta 00:02, 13 February 2007 (UTC) [Reset] A couple: [8], [9], [10]. What do you think? riana_dzasta 00:08, 13 February 2007 (UTC) Those look nice. As I told Dwaipayan, "Regarding the selected pictures, I think we could put the selected pictures on the candidates page using the layout Riana created (and without creating a separate subpage). If no one objects by, say, Friday, we'll put them into the portal." There's some images of Kolkata here. Do you think you might be able to find out the license of these? Cheers, S.D. ¿п? § 00:11, 13 February 2007 (UTC) Ahhh, I do suck at licenses, but I'll try my best. If I mess it up I'll ask for help :) riana_dzasta 00:15, 13 February 2007 (UTC) Those are some nice photos! I've sent an e-mail to the blog owner, asking him if he's willing to release them under the GDFL. Let's see if we get a response :) riana_dzasta 00:38, 13 February 2007 (UTC) I agree (have you seen all the galleries?). Thanks for sending the email. Cheers, S.D. ¿п? § 00:45, 13 February 2007 (UTC) [Reset] I like the new format. I personally don't think the nomination procedure is very important, but since it seems to have been the way things have been done for a while, I'll let it go. I'll rename all the selected articles to featured articles now. riana_dzasta 01:37, 13 February 2007 (UTC) Replied on the user's talk page. S.D. ¿п? § 01:44, 13 February 2007 (UTC) LOL, yes, his deletion log is getting quite impressive because of us ;) riana_dzasta 01:45, 13 February 2007 (UTC) =) I'll log out now — thanks for helping out. If there are any link to selected articles instead of featured articles, I'll remove them over next weekend since I'll be busy in Real LifeTM Tuesday — Friday morning. Hopefully this portal'll be featured by next week! Cheers, S.D. ¿п? § 01:54, 13 February 2007 (UTC) No worries!

S.D. ¿п? § 04:41, 13 February 2007 (UTC) Portal peer review (Reply) Hello and thank you for contacting me about the review. I'm still improving the portal according to suggestions I received during the review, so maybe it can be delisted from peer review now, and I might try to nominate it for featured status in the near future. :-) Best regards, Húsönd 01:28, 13 February 2007 (UTC) Replied on the user's talk page. S.D. ¿п? § 01:33, 13 February 2007 (UTC) Why, Portal:West Bengal looks like an excellent FP candidate. :-) Great work, I think we need more featured portals, and more community involvement in portal space. Feel free to give suggestions about Portal:Basque, they'll be much appreciated. I've also created Portal:Iceland, which I've been neglecting a little bit lately, as few users showed any interest on it. I'll get back to it too when I can find some free time amid my other WP chores. Best regards, Húsönd 01:39, 13 February 2007 (UTC) I agree. I'll help out with Basque and Ireland after I help out with the West Bengal portal. Also, I suggest creating the content first (featured articles, did you know's, featured pictures, etc.) and then later you can do the arranging and automation. Thanks for working on portals amid your other things to do. Cheers, S.D. ¿п? § 01:44, 13 February 2007 (UTC) Signpost updated for February 12th, 2007.

Happy editing and mopping, S.D. ¿п? § 00:47, 14 February 2007 (UTC) Your tips First of all, thank you very much. :-) Your first tip says "I would suggest randomizing the contents of the portal.", which, frankly, I don't understand. The second is "The introduction needs an image.", is that fine? Third: "More selected content, did you know's, and a things you can do box are needed." Selected content will be updating once monthly, DYKs have to be on the main page first, so it's hard (or am I wrong on that?), and I'll make a "things to do" section soon. Your fourth is "Try to add an image to every box." do you mean literally? (eg. I can't think of images that would go well in the category box). · AndonicO Talk · Sign Here 01:50, 14 February 2007 (UTC) Replied on the user's talk page. S.D. ¿п? § 02:24, 14 February 2007 (UTC) An example of a portal that randomizes content is the Chemistry portal. Here, the content (articles, pictures, did #you know's, etc.) doesn't have to changed. Every time you press "Show new selections," new content shows up. I noticed Arjun's Portal:Hinduism had the "Show new selections", but I have no idea on how to do that. Do you? Yes, I learned how to do it over the weekend. I would suggest that you first get you create selected articles subpages for the 6 featured articles, good articles, and the former featured article. Also, create 10 selected pictures, selected biographies, and did you know's (which don't have to show up on the Main page). Then, I'll put in the "Show new selections" and show you how to do it (it's actually quite easy once you get the hang of it :)). S.D. ¿п? § 12:44, 14 February 2007 (UTC) Yes, that's great. :D Okay! Not literally, but images on content like selected articles, pictures, and biographies and things you can do would be good. What kind of image would go in things you can do? Also, the Sid Meier fellow doesn't have any pictures, and all the games he's made have copyrighted images. I had this image on, but someone removed it because of the licensing. · AndonicO Talk · Sign Here 10:27, 14 February 2007 (UTC) I guess Sid Meier is an exception, but try to find free use images for any other articles, pictures, and biographies.

I'll include the text of the e-mail in the picture summary. How does that sound? :) Cheers, riana_dzasta 00:11, 15 February 2007 (UTC) Wow, that's great! You did an awesome job.

It's actually quite an involved process, I had no idea :) riana_dzasta 00:18, 15 February 2007 (UTC) I didn't either. Thanks for taking the initiative.

I do plan to take it to WP:FPCAN, but the portal presently has only few rotating content. I hope to rectify that as soon as I come back from my wikibreak.

I hope I can live up to the kind words expressed of me there, and hope to now be more of an asset to the community with access to the tools. Please feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any suggestions for me in the future. Thanks again!

Cheers, S.D. ¿п? § 11:51, 16 February 2007 (UTC) Portal:Current events/Canada Thank you for your message on my talk page. I have nominated the Portal:Current events/Canada as a Featured Portal Candidate. The time has come and I think its safe to remove it from the Peer Review list. I don't see it likely that it will get more feedback anyway. As a regular on the Peer Review board, do you have any advice for the Portal. User:Rfrisbie is on WikiBreak right now so I feel relatively alone on this project. Mkdwtalk 11:10, 16 February 2007 (UTC) Replied on the user's talk page. S.D. ¿п? § 12:29, 16 February 2007 (UTC) Hey Do you reckon P:WB's ready for featured now? I personally think it's looking really great, and it's got enough content to satisfy portal reviewers. What do you think? Cheers, riana_dzasta 10:53, 16 February 2007 (UTC) Replied on the user's talk page. S.D. ¿п? § 12:29, 16 February 2007 (UTC) Yeah, either Dwaipayan or PK should do the honours. Let's pass all the selected picture candidates (except the one with copyright problems - let's take it out for now, and we can negotiate via talk pages). riana_dzasta 12:30, 16 February 2007 (UTC) Replied on the user's talk page.

Otherwise we may have to demote the image from selected images pool. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 15:48, 17 February 2007 (UTC) I think what happened was that the image was uploaded here by Mukerjee, then uploaded on Commons by Mattes, and then deleted here by Conscious because the image was already on Commons. Hope this helps! Regards, S.D. ¿п? § 16:07, 17 February 2007 (UTC) Edit to my user page! I love it! Thanks a lot!

I was just wondering if you could show me how to do something on my user page. I currently have four colored boxes, but I would like to add two more at the bottom. Thanks! --Cremepuff222 (talk) 22:19, 21 February 2007 (UTC) Hello, Cremepuff, and welcome to Wikipedia! When you edit your user page, put the following code at the bottom to add two more colored boxes: |- | style="background: background color; padding: 1em; width:+50%; vertical-align:top" | | style="background: background color; padding: 1em; width:+50%; vertical-align:top"| and that should do it!
