COH Challenge

Hi!

Congratulations for making such a good contribution to the UNESCO Challenge a couple of months ago.

I don't know if you have noticed, but there is a new competition co-arranged by UNESCO and Wikimedia Sverige – the COH Challenge. This time, the purpose is to get as many of the images uploaded as part of the Connected Open Heritage project (e.g. of world heritage sites, the images can be found here) as possible to be used in Wikipedia articles (however, at most five images – with caption – per article).

I hope you want to participate! :)

Best, Eric Luth (WMSE) (സംവാദം) 14:50, 30 ജൂൺ 2017 (UTC)

ബ്ലൂ മൂൺ എന്ന ലേഖനത്തിൽ നിന്ന് ഞാൻ ചേർത്തഭാഗങ്ങൾ ഡിലീറ്റ് ചെയ്തിരിക്കുന്നു. എന്താണ് കാരണം? --Meenakshi nandhini (സംവാദം) 05:34, 1 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

പ്രിയ Meenakshi nandhini താങ്കൾ എഴുതിയ കാര്യങ്ങൾ ശരിയാണ് പക്ഷെ ഇവ ബ്ലൂമൂൺ കൊണ്ട് സംഭവിക്കില്ല. സൂപ്പർ മൂണായിരിക്കും ഇതിന്റെ കാരണം. ഭാഗികമായി പുനസ്ഥാപിച്ചിട്ടുണ്ട്. മറ്റു വിവരങ്ങൾ സൂപ്പർ മൂണിൽ ഉൾപ്പെടുത്താവുന്നതാണ്. -- രൺജിത്ത് സിജി {Ranjithsiji} ✉ 06:07, 1 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

നന്ദി--Meenakshi nandhini (സംവാദം) 06:30, 1 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

പ്രസ്തുത ലേഖനത്തിൽ " 2018 ജനുവരി 31ന് സന്ധ്യയ്ക്ക് 6.21ന് ചന്ദ്രൻ ഉദിക്കുന്നതു മുതൽ 7.37 വരെ കേരളത്തിൽ പൂർണചന്ദ്രഗ്രഹണം അനുഭവപ്പെട്ടു. " എന്ന് തുടങ്ങുന്ന ഖണ്ഡികയ്ക്ക് എന്താണ് പ്രസക്തി? " ചന്ദ്രന്റെ നിറം ഓറഞ്ചാകുന്ന പ്രതിഭാസമാണ് " എന്നത് തികച്ചും വസ്തുതാ വിരുദ്ധവുമായിരിന്നു. ഈ സമയത്ത് ബ്ലൂമൂൺ എന്ന താളിൽ ഒരുപാട് സന്ദർശകർ ഉണ്ടാകാനിടയുണ്ട്. അതു കൊണ്ട് തെറ്റുകൾ പരാമാവധി കുറയണം എന്നേ ഞാൻ ഉദ്ദേശിച്ചുള്ളൂ --Shagil Kannur (സംവാദം) 08:28, 1 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

പക്ഷേ ചില പ്രദേശങ്ങളിൽ ചന്ദ്രൻ മറ്റു നിറങ്ങളിൽ ഏതാനും നേരത്തേയ്ക്കു പ്രത്യക്ഷപ്പെട്ടുവെന്നും കേൾക്കുന്നു. ഇതിൻറെ സത്യാവസ്ഥ എന്താണെന്നറിയില്ല. വെളുപ്പിനു നാലുമണി നേരത്തും വൈകുന്നേരത്തും ഈ ദിവസം നിരീക്ഷണം നടത്തിയെങ്കിലും കാര്യമായ വ്യത്യാസമൊന്നും കാണുവാൻ എനിക്കു സാധിച്ചതുമില്ല... malikaveedu 08:51, 1 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

ഓരോ വിക്കിതാളുകളും വിജ്ഞാനത്തിന്റെ പ്രകാശമാണ്.നാളേയ്ക്ക് വേണ്ടുന്ന ഈ അറിവു പകർന്നുവയ്ക്കാൻ ഏറ്റവും യോജിച്ച ഒരുതാൾ മാത്രമേ ഞാൻ നോക്കിയുള്ളൂ.

ചന്ദ്രന്റെ നിറം ഓറഞ്ചാകുന്ന പ്രതിഭാസത്തെക്കുറിച്ച് ആണെങ്കിൽ ചന്ദ്രഗ്രഹണസമയത്തും സൂര്യപ്രകാശം ഭൂമിയുടെ അന്തരീക്ഷത്തിലൂടെ കടന്നുപോകും അന്തരീക്ഷത്തിൽവച്ച് അവയ്ക്ക് അപവർത്തനം സംഭവിക്കുന്നു. ഇവയിൽ തരംഗദൈർഘ്യം കൂടുതലുള്ള ചുവപ്പ്,ഓറഞ്ച് രശ്മികൾമാത്രം ചന്ദ്രനിലെത്തും. മറ്റുവർണ്ണരശ്മികൾ വായുവിൽ വിസരണം നടന്ന് നഷ്ടപ്പെടും. ഇതിന്റെ ഏറ്റക്കുറച്ചിൽ അനുസരിച്ച് പലസ്ഥലങ്ങളിൽ വ്യത്യാസപ്പെട്ടിരിക്കും. ന്റെ പരിമിതമായ ജഞാനം കൊണ്ട് ഞാൻ തർക്കിക്കുന്നില്ല. തെറ്റുണ്ടെങ്കിൽ ക്ഷമിക്കുക. --Meenakshi nandhini (സംവാദം) 10:06, 1 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

പ്രിയ Meenakshi nandhini താങ്കൾ എഴുതിയ കാര്യങ്ങൾ ശരിയാണ്. എന്നാൽ ബ്ലൂമൂൺ ഇതല്ല. ഒരുമാസത്തിൽ ഒന്നിലധികം പൗർണ്ണമിയാണ് അത് (ഋതുവിലെ മൂന്നാം പൗർണമിയായിരിക്കും ബ്ലൂ മൂൺ). ബ്ലഡ്മൂൺ, റെഡ്മൂൺ എന്ന പ്രതിഭാസമാണ് താങ്കൾ പറഞ്ഞത്. ഒന്നുകൂടി ശ്രദ്ധയോടെ നോക്കുക. കൂടുതൽ വിവരങ്ങൾ ഉൾപ്പെടുത്താൻ ശ്രമിക്കുന്നതിന് നന്ദി. --രൺജിത്ത് സിജി {Ranjithsiji} ✉ 17:43, 1 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

ബ്ലഡ്മൂൺ,ബ്ലൂ മൂൺ,റെഡ്മൂൺ ഇവ മൂന്നും അപൂർവ്വ പ്രതിഭാസങ്ങളല്ല. പക്ഷെ ഇതുമൂന്നും കൂടി ഒരുമിച്ചുവരുന്നത് അത്യപൂർവ്വമാണ്. ഇതിനുമുമ്പ് ഇങ്ങനെ ഒന്നിച്ചു വന്നത് 1866 മാർച്ച് 31നാണ്. അതുകൊണ്ട് ഈ വിവരങ്ങൾ ബ്ലൂ മൂൺ താളിൽ എഴുതിയാലും ശരിയാണെന്ന് തോന്നി. --Meenakshi nandhini (സംവാദം) 18:14, 1 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

പ്രിയ Meenakshi nandhini ഈ സംഭവം എന്താണെന്ന് എനിക്ക് ശരിക്ക് മനസ്സിലായില്ല. ഏതായാലും തിരിച്ചുവിടൽ മാറ്റിയിട്ടുണ്ട്. രണ്ടു താളുകളും ലയിപ്പിക്കേണ്ടിവരുമെന്ന് തോന്നുന്നു താങ്കൾ എഴുതിയ കാര്യങ്ങൾ മറ്റേ താളിലേക്ക് ചേർക്കാൻ പറ്റുമെങ്കിൽ ചേർത്ത് ഈ താൾ തിരിച്ചുവിടുക. ഇംഗ്ലീഷ് വിക്കിയിലെയും വിക്കിഡാറ്റയിലേയും താളുകൾ ആതാളിലേക്കാണ് ലിങ്ക് ചെയ്തിട്ടുള്ളത്. ഒരു ലയന ഫലകം ചേർക്കാതെ വെറുതേ തിരിച്ചുവിട്ടത് ശരിയായിട്ടില്ല. അതാണ് റിവേർട്ടിയത്. ലയിപ്പിക്കാൻ ശ്രമിക്കുമല്ലോ. --രൺജിത്ത് സിജി {Ranjithsiji} ✉ 17:34, 10 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

ത്യാഗരാജസ്വാമികൾ രചിച്ച കോവൂർ പഞ്ചരത്നം, തിരുവെട്രിയൂർ പഞ്ചരത്നം,ലാൽ‌ഗുഡി പഞ്ചരത്നം, ശ്രീരംഗ പഞ്ചരത്നം എന്നിവ ഘനരാഗ പഞ്ചരത്നകൃതികളിൽ നിന്ന് വ്യത്യസ്തങ്ങളാണ്. ത്യാഗരാജസ്വാമികളുടെ ശിഷ്യനായിരുന്ന വീണകുപ്പയ്യരും കാളഹസ്തീശ പഞ്ചരത്നം, വെങ്കടേശ പഞ്ചരത്നംഎന്നീ കൃതികൾ രചിച്ചിട്ടുണ്ട്. ത്യാഗരാജസ്വാമികൾ രചിച്ച ഘനരാഗപഞ്ചരത്നകൃതികൾ ആണ് കൂടുതൽ പ്രസിദ്ധം. പഞ്ചരത്നകീർത്തനങ്ങൾ എന്ന തലക്കെട്ടിൽ താൾ സൃഷ്ടിക്കുമ്പോൾ ഇത്രയും പഞ്ചരത്നകൃതികളെകുറിച്ചാണ് എഴുതേണ്ടത്.

അതിൽനിന്നെല്ലാം വ്യത്യസ്തമായി ത്യാഗരാജസ്വാമികൾ രചിച്ച ഘനരാഗപഞ്ചരത്നകൃതികൾ മാത്രമായി അതിന്റെ സാഹിത്യവും അർത്ഥവും എഴുതി ഞാനെഴുതിയ താൾ നിലനിർത്താനാഗ്രഹിക്കുന്നു.

പ്രിയ Meenakshi nandhini ഈ സംഭവം എന്താണെന്ന് എനിക്ക് ശരിക്ക് മനസ്സിലായില്ല. ഇതിൽ ആധികാരികവിവരവും കുറവാണ്. പഞ്ചരത്നകീർത്തനങ്ങൾ എന്ന താളിൽ എല്ലാം വരണം. അതിന്റെ ഉപ തലക്കെട്ടയിട്ടല്ലേ ത്യാഗരാജസ്വാമികൾ രചിച്ച ഘനരാഗപഞ്ചരത്നകൃതികൾ വരികയുള്ളൂ? അല്ലെങ്കിൽ കുറേ പണിയുണ്ട്

• പഞ്ചരത്നകീർത്തനങ്ങൾ വിപുലീകരിക്കണം.
• ത്യാഗരാജസ്വാമികൾ രചിച്ച ഘനരാഗപഞ്ചരത്നകൃതികൾ എന്ന ഉപതലക്കട്ടിൽ ഒരു ചെറിയ ഖണ്ഡിക അതിൽ വേണം
• ത്യാഗരാജസ്വാമികൾ രചിച്ച ഘനരാഗപഞ്ചരത്നകൃതികൾ എന്ന പ്രധാന ലേഖനത്തിലേക്ക് ലിങ്ക് നൽകണം
• ത്യാഗരാജസ്വാമികൾ രചിച്ച ഘനരാഗപഞ്ചരത്നകൃതികൾ എന്ന ലേഖനത്തിൽ സാമാന്യം വിവരം വേണം.

ഇപ്പോഴത്തെ നിലക്ക് രണ്ട് ലേഖനമാക്കിയിട്ടുണ്ട്. എന്നാലും കൂടുതൽ വിവരങ്ങളില്ലെങ്കിൽ രണ്ടും ലയിപ്പിക്കേണ്ടിവരും. പിന്നെ തലക്കെട്ട് ത്യാഗരാജസ്വാമികൾ രചിച്ച ഘനരാഗപഞ്ചരത്നകൃതികൾ എന്ന് വേണോ ഘനരാഗപഞ്ചരത്നകൃതികൾ എന്ന് വേണോ?

എന്തായാലും പഞ്ചരത്നകീർത്തനങ്ങൾ എന്ന ലേഖനം ഒന്ന് ശരിയാക്കാമോ? അതായത് ത്യാഗരാജ സ്വാമികൾ രചിച്ച കീർത്തനങ്ങളിൽ ഏറ്റവും വിശിഷ്ടമായി കണക്കാക്കുന്ന അഞ്ചെണ്ണമാണു് പഞ്ചരത്നകീർത്തനങ്ങൾ അഥവാ പഞ്ചരത്നകൃതികൾ അഥവാ ത്യാഗരാജപഞ്ചരത്നകൃതികൾ എന്നു് അറിയപ്പെടുന്നത്. എന്ന വാചകം തന്നെ മാറ്റിയെഴുതണം. ഒന്ന് നോക്കാമോ--രൺജിത്ത് സിജി {Ranjithsiji} ✉ 18:47, 10 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

ഇങ്ങനെ മൂലലേഖനങ്ങളിലേക്കുള്ള ലിങ്കുകൾ നൽകാതെ ചർച്ച ചെയ്യുന്നതു് ഒരു നല്ല രീതിയല്ല. ഇങ്ങനെ ചെയ്താൽ മറ്റാർക്കും എളുപ്പത്തിൽ സഹായിക്കാനാവില്ല. ഒപ്പു്: വിശ്വപ്രഭViswaPrabha^{സം‌വാദം} > 21:03, 10 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

ശരി സഹായിക്കൂ. മൂലലേഖനങ്ങൾ പഞ്ചരത്നകീർത്തനങ്ങൾ, ശ്രീ. ത്യാഗരാജ പഞ്ചരത്നകൃതികൾ --രൺജിത്ത് സിജി {Ranjithsiji} ✉ 09:54, 11 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

രണ്ടു ലേഖനമാക്കിയിട്ടുണ്ട്. കുറെ മാറ്റങ്ങൾ വരുത്തിയിട്ടുണ്ട്. നോക്കുമല്ലോ--Vinayaraj (സംവാദം) 16:47, 11 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

മുകളിലെ ചർച്ച പിന്നീടാണ് കണ്ടത്, കാര്യം മനസ്സിലായി, നന്ദി--Vinayaraj (സംവാദം) 16:31, 11 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

ശ്രീ. ത്യാഗരാജ പഞ്ചരത്നകൃതികൾഎന്ന ഈ താളിന്റെ പ്രത്യേകത തന്നെ അതിന്റെ സാഹിത്യവും അർത്ഥവുമാണ് ഇതു മാാറ്റിയ നടപടിശരിയാണോ?--Meenakshi nandhini (സംവാദം) 16:49, 11 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

എല്ലാ കൃതികളും അർത്ഥങ്ങളും ഒറ്റത്താളിൽത്തന്നെ ആക്കിയാൽ ലേഖനത്തിന് വലിയ വലിപ്പം വന്നേക്കും. മാത്രമല്ല ഒറ്റയ്ക്കൊറ്റയ്ക്ക് നിൽക്കാനുള്ള പ്രാധാന്യം ഓരോ കൃതിക്കും ഉണ്ടുതാനും. അതുകൊണ്ട് ഓരോ കൃതിക്കും പ്രത്യേകം താളുകളാക്കിയാൽ കാര്യങ്ങൾ കുറച്ചുകൂടി വൃത്തിയായിരിക്കും. എന്തരോ മഹാനുഭാവലു-വിന് ഇപ്പോൾത്തന്നെ താൾ ഉണ്ട്.--Vinayaraj (സംവാദം) 17:00, 11 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

പ്രിയ Meenakshi nandhini , Vinayaraj പറഞ്ഞതാണ് ശരിയെന്നുതോന്നുന്നു. താളിന് വളരെ വലിപ്പം വരും അതുകൊണ്ട് വേറെ വേറെ താളാക്കുന്നതാണ് നല്ലത്. അതാത് കൃതിക്ക് പിന്നീട് വന്ന വിവിധ മാറ്റങ്ങളും ഇതിൽ ഉൾപ്പെടുത്താമല്ലോ. --രൺജിത്ത് സിജി {Ranjithsiji} ✉ 01:40, 12 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

ഞാൻ തുടങ്ങിവച്ചത്. ആരംഭത്തിൽ തന്നെ അത് മാറ്റി എഴുതാൻ എന്നോട് തന്നെ സൂചിപ്പിക്കാമായിരുന്നു.--Meenakshi nandhini (സംവാദം) 02:04, 12 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

പ്രിയ Meenakshi nandhini ഇതിപ്പോ മാറ്റിയെഴുതേണ്ട പ്രശ്നമില്ലല്ലോ. കുറച്ച് വിഭാഗം മറ്റൊരുലേഖനത്തിലേക്ക് മാറ്റുകയല്ലേ. ഒരു ലേഖനം എഴുതി എഴുതി വരുമ്പോഴാണ് അതിന്റെ ഒരു ഘടന രൂപപ്പെട്ടുവരുന്നത്. അങ്ങനെയാണ് അത് നല്ല ലേഖനമാവുന്നത്. ആദ്യമേതന്നെ എല്ലാം പ്ലാൻ ചെയ്ത് എഴുതാൻ കഴിയില്ലല്ലോ. പിന്നെ വിക്കിയിലെ ലേഖനങ്ങളെല്ലാം നമ്മളെല്ലാവരും ചേർന്ന് എഴുതുന്നതാണല്ലോ. കൂടുതൽ മെച്ചപ്പെട്ട ഉള്ളടക്കത്തിന് വേണ്ടമാറ്റങ്ങൾ വരുത്തുന്നത് നല്ലതല്ലേ? --രൺജിത്ത് സിജി {Ranjithsiji} ✉ 02:20, 12 ഫെബ്രുവരി 2018 (UTC)

Wikidata weekly summary #300

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.

• Welcome to the 300th Weekly Summary!

The weekly newsletter was started by Lydia at the very beginning of the Wikidata project, even before the first deployment, to keep the community informed about the developments, the new projects and tools. More than five years later, the newsletter is still there, its content powered by the community, and sent every week all along the years. I wanted to say a warm "thank you!" to each person who helped filling the Weekly Summary <3

Over the past years, as you know, Wikidata has grown a lot. More data, more tools, more editors and reusers, more exciting projects led by the community. The Weekly Summary has evolved with us, and the 300th edition seems a good moment to ask you all your suggestions about the newsletter, how it could continue evolving, and how you would like to improve it.

On that purpose, you can find a feedback page to express all your ideas about the Weekly Summary. We're very interested to know more about your reading habits, the parts you're more or less interested in, the new topics you would like to share with the community. Thanks in advance for filling it.

I stay available anytime to discuss with you, feel free to contact me if you have any question or concern! Cheers, Léa

നമസ്കാരം, Ranjithsiji. താങ്കൾക്ക് Arunsunilkollam എന്ന ഉപയോക്താവിന്റെ സംവാദം താളിൽ പുതിയ സന്ദേശങ്ങൾ ഉണ്ട്
താങ്കൾക്ക് എപ്പോൾ വേണമെങ്കിലും താങ്കളുടെ സംവാദം താളിൽ നിന്ന് {{Talkback}} അല്ലെങ്കിൽ {{Tb}} എന്ന ഫലകം നീക്കം ചെയ്ത് ഈ കുറിപ്പ് മായ്ച്ചു കളയാവുന്നതാണ് .

ഞാൻ സൃഷ്ടിക്കുന്ന താളുകളുടെ ഉത്തരവാദിത്വം എനിയ്ക്കുണ്ട്. കുറഞ്ഞത് ഒരു മാസത്തെയെങ്കിലും കാലയളവ് ഓരോ താളിനും എനിയ്ക്ക് തരണം. ഇപ്പോൾ ഞാൻ സൃഷ്ടിക്കുകയാണ്. എനിയ്ക്ക് ഒരു പ്രോഗ്രാം ചാർട്ടുണ്ട്. അതനുസരിച്ച് ഞാൻ മുന്നോട്ടു പോകുകയാണ്. ഇതിൽ ആർക്കും ബുദ്ധിമുട്ടില്ലല്ലോ. സമരസപ്പെടായ്ക വന്ന് തിരുത്തിയും മറ്റും കളയാൻ എന്റെ പക്കൽ സമയമില്ല. അതുകൊണ്ട് ദയവായി എന്റെ ലേഖനങ്ങൾ മറ്റുള്ളവർ തിരുത്തുന്നത് ഒഴിവാക്കിതരണമെന്ന് താല്പര്യപ്പെടുന്നു. തെറ്റുണ്ടെങ്കിൽ സംവാദതാളിൽ കുറിക്കട്ടെ. ഞാൻ എന്റെ താളുകളെല്ലാം നല്ലരീതിയിൽ നിലനിർത്താൻ ശ്രമിക്കും. വിക്കിപീഡിയയിൽ എന്റെ താളുകൾ എന്ന ഒരു താൾ ഇല്ല എന്ന നിയമം അറിയാം. പക്ഷെ ഇപ്പോൾ ഈ നിലപാട് കൂടിയേ തീരൂ. ഈയൊരവകാശമെങ്കിലും വിക്കിപീഡിയയിൽ എനിയ്ക്കില്ലയെന്നുണ്ടോ. ആവശ്യമില്ലാത്ത ഇടപെടലുകൾ നടത്താത്ത മാളികവീടിനുമാത്രം (ഇതുവരെയും മാന്യതപുലർത്തുന്ന) (പറയാൻ വാക്കുകളില്ല) അനുവാദം കൊടുക്കാൻ താല്പര്യപ്പെടുന്നു. താങ്കളുടെ വിലയേറിയ അഭിപ്രായം പ്രതീക്ഷിക്കുന്നു.--Meenakshi nandhini (സംവാദം) 04:10, 26 മാർച്ച് 2018 (UTC)

വിക്കിയിലെ താളുകൾ ആരുടേയും സ്വകാര്യ സ്വത്തല്ലല്ലോ! "ആർക്കും തിരുത്താവുന്നത്" എന്നതാണല്ലോ വിക്കിപ്പീഡിയയുടെ ഏറ്റവുംവലിയ പ്രത്യേകത. താങ്കൾക്കും അത് ബാധകമാണ്. താങ്കൾ സൃഷ്ടിക്കുന്ന ലേഖനങ്ങൾ മാത്രം ആരും തിരുത്തരുത് എന്നു പറയുന്നതുതന്നെ വിക്കിപ്പീഡിയയുടെ നയങ്ങൾക്ക് എതിരാണ്. താങ്കളുടെ താളിൽ ആരെങ്കിലും തെറ്റായ വിവരങ്ങൾ കൊടുക്കുന്നുണ്ടെങ്കിൽ താങ്കൾക്ക് അത് തിരുത്താവുന്നതാണ്. തെറ്റുകൾ ആവർത്തിക്കുകയാണെങ്കിൽ അഡ്മിൻമാർക്ക് ടി ആൾക്കെതിരെ നടപടിയെടുക്കാം. '...ഈയൊരവകാശമെങ്കിലും വിക്കിപീഡിയയിൽ എനിയ്ക്കില്ലയെന്നുണ്ടോ...". ഇങ്ങനെയുള്ള അവകാശങ്ങൾ ലഭിക്കുമോ? പകരം, താളുകൾ സംരക്ഷിച്ചു നിർത്തുകയല്ലേ ഉചിതം? Shagil Kannur (സംവാദം) 08:53, 26 മാർച്ച് 2018 (UTC

തെറ്റുണ്ടെങ്കിൽ ആർക്കും തിരുത്താം. വാദപ്രതിവാദമല്ല എന്റെ ലക്ഷ്യം. ഓരോരുത്തരും ആദ്യം അവരവരുടെ താളുകളിൽ നിലവാരം പുലർത്തുക. വർഷങ്ങളായി നിർമ്മിച്ചതാളുകൾ പൂർത്തിയാക്കാൻകിടക്കുന്നു . അതിനിടയിൽ ഒരുദിവസം മാത്രം പ്രായമായ താളുകളിൽ കൈകടത്താൻ വരുന്നത് ശരിയായ നടപടിയല്ല. ഒരു കാര്യനിർവ്വാഹകന്റെ യോഗ്യതയെ ചോദ്യം ചെയ്യേണ്ടിവരും.--Meenakshi nandhini (സംവാദം) 10:52, 26 മാർച്ച് 2018 (UTC)

പ്രിയ Meenakshi nandhini ഇതൊരു കുഴഞ്ഞ പ്രശ്നമാണ്. വിക്കിപീഡിയയുടെ നയം മൂലം ഒരു താൾ തിരുത്തുന്നതിൽനിന്നും ഉപയോക്താക്കളെ തടയുക വയ്യ. താങ്കൾ ഒരു താൾ നിർമ്മിച്ചുകൊണ്ടിരിക്കുന്നു തൽക്കാലം മറ്റാരും അതിൽ തിരുത്തരുത് എന്നതിന് വിക്കിയിലുള്ള ഒരു പരിപാടി ഫലകം:Under_construction ഈ ഫലകം ചേർക്കുകയാണ്. ഏതാനും ദിവസത്തേക്കെല്ലാം മറ്റാരെങ്കിലും വളരെയധികം തിരുത്തലുകൾ വരുത്തുന്നതു തടയാമെന്ന് മാത്രം. അല്ലാതൊരു ഉത്തരം പറയാനില്ല. പിന്നെ തെറ്റായവിവരങ്ങൾ റിവേർട്ട് ചെയ്യാം. --രൺജിത്ത് സിജി {Ranjithsiji} ✉ 11:44, 26 മാർച്ച് 2018 (UTC)

നന്ദി. വിക്കിപീഡിയയുടെ നിലവാരം വർദ്ധിപ്പിക്കാൻ എന്നാലാവുന്നത് ചെയ്യാനായി ഞാനും പങ്കാളിയാകുന്നു. ഉചിതമായ സ്ഥലത്ത് താങ്കളുടെ വിലയേറിയ സഹായവും സഹകരണവും തുടർന്നും പ്രതീക്ഷിച്ചുകൊണ്ട് സസ്നേഹം--Meenakshi nandhini (സംവാദം) 11:55, 26 മാർച്ച് 2018 (UTC)

ബഹുമാനപ്പെട്ട മീനാക്ഷി മാഡം, "ഓരോരുത്തരും ആദ്യം അവരവരുടെ താളുകളിൽ നിലവാരം പുലർത്തുക. വർഷങ്ങളായി നിർമ്മിച്ചതാളുകൾ പൂർത്തിയാക്കാൻകിടക്കുന്നു . അതിനിടയിൽ ഒരുദിവസം മാത്രം പ്രായമായ താളുകളിൽ കൈകടത്താൻ വരുന്നത് ശരിയായ നടപടിയല്ല..." എന്താണ് ഇതിൻറെയൊക്കെ അർത്ഥം? ഒരു താളും ആരുടേയും സ്വന്തമല്ല. വർഷങ്ങളായി നിർമ്മിച്ചതാളുകൾ പൂർത്തിയാകേണ്ടതുണ്ടെങ്കിൽ അത് ഓരോരുത്തരുടെയും ഉത്തരവാദിത്തമാണ്. താങ്കൾ പുതിയ ലേഖനങ്ങൾ എഴുതുന്നതിൽ മാത്രം ശ്രദ്ധ കേന്ദ്രീകരിക്കുന്നതുകൊണ്ടാണ് ഇങ്ങനെയൊക്കെ തോന്നുന്നത്. നിലവിലുള്ള താളുകളും തിരുത്താവുന്നതാണ്. അതിനു താളിൻറെപ്രായം ഒരു ഘടകമേയല്ല. തിരുത്ത് തെറ്റാണെങ്കിൽ റിവേർട്ട് ചെയ്യപ്പെടും. അല്ലെങ്കിൽ നിലനിൽക്കും. താങ്കൾ സൃഷ്ടിച്ച താളുകളിൽ ആരും തന്നെ കൈകടത്താൻ വരുന്നത് ശരിയായ നടപടിയല്ല എന്നൊക്കെ പറയുന്നത് നല്ല വിക്കിപീഡിയന് ചേർന്നതാണെന്ന് തോന്നുന്നില്ല. വിക്കിപ്പീഡിയ Facebook അല്ല.Shagil Kannur (സംവാദം) 17:25, 26 മാർച്ച് 2018 (UTC)
