Ahom history

This article is a very fine example of what the category Category:History of Assam seeks to collect. Thank you.

I would suggest that this article be moved to Ahom-Mughal conflicts because it deals specifically with this topic. At a later date when we do have Ahom history covering the entire history from 1228 to 1826 in a broad overview format in the style of History of Assam, we may then include Ahom-Mughal conflicts as a main article link to a subtopic of the Ahom history page. If you do agree, please indicate it, and I shall move the article.

Thanks,

Ahom capitals

It might be nice to put up a list of Ahom capitals, from Charaideo to Jorhat. Who constructed which capital and when were they capitals. Could you help with this? --Chaipau 19:27, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

New articles

Thank you for your edits. When you create new articles, please create them properly. An example would be the way that I have improved your article Gauhati Medical College and Hospital. Please fix Assam Engineering College and the Cotton College, and any others. Hu 13:08, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Done!

Atan Burhagohain

I have moved the page Atan Buragohain to Atan Burhagohain. This wiki has used the spelling Burhagohain consistently and I think it should stick to it. Also, could you supply a reference to the article please? Before it gets flagged? Thanks.

King Rajeshvara of Assam

In an article I am working on for Bhagya Chandra, it refers to a King Rajeshvara of the Ahom Kingdom who ruled around the 1760's or so. Do you know more about this person?Bakaman _Bakatalk 01:28, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Namaskar, Bhagya Chandra is up on articlespace. Even if you just make a stub for King Rajeshvara (I would, but I dont know his Oxomiya name) it would be useful, so that I can make the Bhagya Chandra article ready for "Did you know" section on main page. Bakaman _Bakatalk 01:05, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

On another note, I noticed you made a few pages on Hindu temples, to mark your stub as a Hindu temple stub use {{Hindu-temple-stub}}, also (if you have enough info) use Template:Infobox Mandir to make the info on Hindu temple pages across wiki more streamlined. Bakaman _Bakatalk 01:05, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

I put links to Ching-Thang Khomba and Chitsai on the Rajeshvar Singha article.Bakaman _Bakatalk 15:58, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Other Help

I noticed Ching-Thang_Khomba#The_Retaking_of_Manipur and Rajeswar_Singha#Expedition_to_Manipur should ttalk about the same thing . Is there a source you have for this section (a Buranji perhaps) ? Since the Suramphaa article has the better info, I'll rewrite the section onto the Jai Singh page.Bakaman _Bakatalk 19:36, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

I rewote most of the suramphaa section on the Jai Singh page.Bakaman _Bakatalk 21:51, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

I found a downloadable copy of A History of Assam here. I dont have anything making a definite connection Srimanta Shankardeva to Jai Singh (though he was definitely an influence). Hinduism came to Manipur via Sylhet, so it is a possibility.If you look at List of Meitei kings, I think the first or second kings are during Srimanta's time.For the article, I've mostly relied on websites, because I dont have much access to books.Bakaman _Bakatalk 15:47, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Another Source - Tungkhungia Buranji or a History of Assam, 1681-1826 A. D.: An Old Assamese Chronicle of the Tungkhungia Dynasty of Ahom Sovereigns by S. K. Bhuyan - Geographical Journal, Vol. 84, No. 6 (Dec., 1934), p. 525

I cant open it though because I dont have a JSTOR account (its free if youre at a major American university).Bakaman _Bakatalk 16:02, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Bor-Sola Beel.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Bor-Sola Beel.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 19:05, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Cremation of Rudra Singha

The cremation of Rudra Singha at North Guwahati is disputed by historians. Padmeshwar Gogoi (1968, The Tai and the Tai kingdoms, p509) writes:

On the death of Rudra Singha his eldest son, Barjana Gohain, who was at Gauhati with his father, sailed up with the dead body of the deceased king and ascended the throne at Rangpur. The body was embalmed at Chungpura for a fortnight and, according to the Changrung Phukanar Buranji, entombed in the month of Kartik and not cremated as some accounts say.

Could you please cite this as well as your source at the various places Rudra Singha's cremation is mentioned.

Thanks, Chaipau 14:29, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Commercial use of Image:Barak river.jpg

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Barak river.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Barak river.jpg is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only" or "used with permission for use on Wikipedia only" which was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19 or is not used in any articles (CSD I3).

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. This bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Image:Barak river.jpg itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. If you have any questions about what to do next or why your image was nominated for speedy deletion please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

Non-free use disputed for Image:Logo national games.jpg

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Logo national games.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:23, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Ramadhwaj Singha

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Ramadhwaj Singha, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Dkonwar! Your additions to Kamata Kingdom have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — SamX [talk · contribs] 15:14, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Jungal Balahu Garh

Hello Dkonwar,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Jungal Balahu Garh for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly indicate why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!
