Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Museums in Kiev, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Reynolds (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

• Archived copy --Tito☸Dutta 15:39, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

Can you review this DYK please? I would have asked Tito but he being the article creator he can't and other editors are overlooking this might be because its a terrain unfamiliar to them, + I'll go on a Wiki-break soon so I want to complete it fast otherwise I can't answer to the questions of the reviewer as a consequence to which my DYK might fail which I don't want. Thanks, hope to hear from you soon. Sohambanerjee1998 10:51, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

I have replied. Has it been removed from TDYK page? Why? Tito☸Dutta 15:17, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

Can you not add new content to articles like Culture in Guam which are being audited? It's just now we don't know where we are and I'll have to start again from scratch and read and review it all, when Rosie has already put in some time in checking it. The article in my opinion was already too bloated as it was.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:44, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

OK, I think we've checked enough of the recent articles now. Let's resume with creating content. But can you please cite every sentence you write so we can easily verify what is written in the new articles? Once checked if there are excess sources we'll remove them if needs be.♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:54, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

Hi there. Just noticed your nice work on User:Rosiestep/sandbox/Duladeo Temple. Beautiful imgs. --Rosiestep (talk) 18:52, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

• Was away on a pilgrimage to Gaya and Bodhgaya. Shifting the User:Rosiestep/sandbox/Duladeo Temple to RBN.--Nvvchar. 02:15, 10 November 2013 (UTC)

Hope your pilgrimage was nice. Regarding Museums in Kiev, this sfn (Grotowski 2010, p. 298) is showing up as a "Harv error: link from #CITEREFGrotowski2010 doesn't point to any citation" as there's no book listed in the Bibliography section. I tried to figure out what book did Grotowski write in 2010, but I was unsuccessful. As you added the sfn on Nov 1st, can you please add its corresponding book into the Bib? --Rosiestep (talk) 17:35, 10 November 2013 (UTC)

I have made few minor changes. I'll check it again. --Tito☸Dutta 08:47, 11 November 2013 (UTC)

• Sourcing check might be very difficult at this moment, I am hardly getting any time to concentrate. If you have other articles which needs expansion, review, c/e, I'll check it right now. I'll try to get some time here. About sourcing issue, we may remove the portions they have mentioned. --Tito☸Dutta 09:13, 11 November 2013 (UTC)

Hello, thanks. Actually, the photo from Dominican Republic seems to be a gift shop, not a temple. As per the Argentinian organization, here is their webpage; http://en.hastinapura.org.ar/. From a quick read, it seems it is primarily a Yoga course (in Western sense) business rather than a Hindu ashram. They have several branches in the city, and some in other parts of the country and Latin America. --Soman (talk) 12:28, 11 November 2013 (UTC)

Regarding User:Nvvchar/sandbox/Boca Chita Key Historic District, I'd say go ahead and transfer it into RBN sandbox (if you wish) so that editors can look at it and decide. As for me, though, it doesn't feel like there's much content that I could to add to the article -- you've pretty much written the whole article already. So that means my part would be reviewing/auditing/copyediting and I'm a bit burnt out with that role for the moment. I noticed you hadn't commented, but have you had a chance to look at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Rosblofnari#Collaborative article creation? --Rosiestep (talk) 04:02, 12 November 2013 (UTC)

I read it just now and noted my views there. I don't want to trouble you with the above article. I will not transfer it. Thanks.--Nvvchar. 04:28, 12 November 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for starting but you've gone over 5 kb in total, that's too much to check. When I say 3kb I mean 3kb in total. As you've done I'll make an effort in this insistence but please try not to go over 3kb in total in future articles.♦ Dr. Blofeld 07:35, 14 November 2013 (UTC)

Some things need sorting out and wondering if you can have a go at it: these comments regarding Kahuzi, and this comment from an IP. On the nom page, I've requested some time to review the issues raised. --Rosiestep (talk) 03:03, 16 November 2013 (UTC)

I fixed one of the issues (km2 vs. km|2 in the lede's measurement template). --Rosiestep (talk) 05:18, 16 November 2013 (UTC)

For a start that comment is 5 years old. And whatever we write as a group and nom for DYK which is science related, the blogger will continue to cover our articles. I wrote an article on a Middle Eastern plant myself and I notice she didn't attack that one even though I invited her to devour it... I have suggested that we avoid wildlife related articles for the moment as we're making ourselves a target, however good it is. But I'm not going to stoop down and be bullied by a blogger unless she identifies serious issues, which she didn't. I did actually correct one of the km issues when reading but missed the other one.♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:31, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

I've withdrawn the nom. --Rosiestep (talk) 15:49, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

I moved Pook's Hill to mainspace but the amount of travel references makes it ineligible for DYK. --Rosiestep (talk) 16:58, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

Ok, I'm glad you agree. I assume you've seen the resignations at RBN and that it makes sense in light of the issues raised in the last few weeks. For now, I'm going to work again on Asturian locales, translating articles from the es and ast wikis. I'm going to avoid the stresses of the DYK grind and focus on what makes me happy. By the way, I'm asking around to see if anyone has an idea how to fix my HotCat problem. I lost HotCat when Visual Editor was launched and I can't seem to get it back in operation. Do you have any ideas what I should do? --Rosiestep (talk) 02:10, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

There are different 'Pulomaa's. Bhrigu's wife Pulomaa is different from Vishnu Purana's Pulomaa. The former appears by name in only two sources as far as only: Mahabharata and Brahmavaitarna Purana. That too She only appears in the Agni-Chyavana story. No where else. Parmeshwaranand is a WP:MIRROR of Mani, Vettam. Please the original. Also I am busy in real life so can't work much on Astika till Christmas. If you want to go ahead few things that need to be covered: son of Jaratkaru and Manasa; abandonment by father; the snake sacrifice of Janamejaya stopped; Iconographically in Manasa's images - a child on her lap [1] and Astikajaratkaru form [2]; worship for snake bite cure/avoidance. Mani, [3], [4], [5] are good refs for the same. --Redtigerxyz ^Talk 17:57, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

I just saw that you have created Puloma, however User:Puloma and Wikipedia:Puloma were also created. Also, the edit history of Puloma can be fixed, if required. An admin can cleanup this; should I request one.--Redtigerxyz ^Talk 16:49, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

I guess you're right, I'm wasting my time. I've removed it.♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:58, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

You could try to improve Dwarka, I've moved the problematic content to the talk page. Most of it is difficult to read or scruffy looking. Probably best to write a basic article from scratch if you;re interested.♦ Dr. Blofeld 22:46, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
