Administrator

Hello Tow. Per the election results, I've promoted you to administrator. As the community is small and there's not enough number of voters, the permissions will be temporary for three months starting from today. However, few days before your access expires you can come to m:SRP and ask for an extension. You may find at m:Administrator a guide about how to use your new buttons.

• Important: Please remember to translate the interface at translatewiki.net only and to upload images to Commons.

If you have any doubt, you may reach me at m:User talk:MarcoAurelio or post a message at m:Stewards' noticeboard.

Best regards, --MarcoAurelio (talk) ੧੩:੩੮, ੩੦ ਜੁਲਾਈ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Thank You! --  TOW  talk  ੧੬:੪੮, ੩੦ ਜੁਲਾਈ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Protecting ਮਦਦ:Typing

Hi Tow,

Congratulations again!

Now to your first admin task: Can you please semi-protect the page ਮਦਦ:Typing? There's a big link to it at the top of this Wikipedia and apparently it attracts new users who misunderstand how to edit Wikipedia.

Ah, and before you protect it, can you please rename it to a Punjabi name?

And one least thing: Can you please write to User:Sawinder Singh and explain him again what I wrote in Punjabi?

Thank you! --ਅਮੀਰ ਏਲਿਸ਼ਾ ਅਹਰੋਨਿ (talk) ੧੭:੦੩, ੩੦ ਜੁਲਾਈ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

I don't really know what the appropriate name (Any suggestions? Should the name just be the word typing transliterated to Punjabi?) for that page would be but I have just semi-protected it for now. Tell me if there is anything else to be done.  TOW  talk  ੧੭:੧੦, ੩੦ ਜੁਲਾਈ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

The most important thing is that people who don't know English will understand it. If you are not sure, consult with other users. Guglani and Tari Buttar seem to know Punjabi well. Usually it's good to find native words and not to simply write English word in Gurmukhi script, but sometimes if there's really now Punjabi word it's OK to use an English word.

Maybe you can just give it a name like "Writing Gurmukhi in Wikipedia". --ਅਮੀਰ ਏਲਿਸ਼ਾ ਅਹਰੋਨਿ / Amir E. Aharoni (talk) ੦੩:੩੩, ੩੧ ਜੁਲਾਈ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

I don't think its a big concerns because most almost all the people who can read Punjabi can also read English. 24.79.196.27

Welcome template

Hi,

I'm very happy to see that new users are joining and editing, for example ਮੈਂਬਰ:ਪਰਮਿੰਦਰ ਸਿੰਘ.

I created a Welcome template: {{ਜੀ ਆਇਆਂ ਨੂੰ}}.

I want it to be written in both English and Punjabi. Can you please edit it and translate the parts that are supposed to be in Punjabi?

Also, please rename it from "Welcome" to a Punjabi name. Thank you. --ਅਮੀਰ ਏਲਿਸ਼ਾ ਅਹਰੋਨਿ / Amir E. Aharoni (talk) ੧੨:੦੦, ੧ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

OK, TariButtar already did these things. But you are welcome to improve it more any time. --ਅਮੀਰ ਏਲਿਸ਼ਾ ਅਹਰੋਨਿ / Amir E. Aharoni (talk) ੧੮:੦੫, ੧ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Looks great!  TOW  talk  ੨੦:੦੫, ੧ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Your temporary access is going to expire soon

Hello, you were granted temporary adminship in this wiki which is going to expire in a few days. Just to let you know that if you want to continue as an administrator here, you need to request an extension on stewards' permission request page on Meta-Wiki. Usually you only have to make a local announcement on your local village pump or request for adminship page, and if there are no objections after no less than three days, your request will be fulfilled. Additionally, if you think the community is big enough to elect a permanent administrator, you can place a local request here for a permanent adminship, so stewards can grant you the permanent access. Please ask me or any other steward if you have any questions. Thank you! Trijnstel (ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ) ੧੯:੨੭, ੨੧ ਅਕਤੂਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Your temporary access has expired

Hello, the temporary access you requested on this wiki has expired. Just to let you know that If you want it back, feel free to make a local announcement and open a new request on stewards' permission request page on Meta-Wiki later. Moreover, if you think the community is big enough to elect a permanent administrator, you can place a local request here for a permanent adminship, so stewards can grant you the permanent access. Please ask me or any other steward if you have any questions. Thank you! -- Avi (ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ) ੦੫:੩੨, ੧ ਨਵੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Hello

Hi Tow, we are really glad that you are contributing to Punjabi Wikipedia. Can you please use "।" instead of "." (dot) as full stop ? And yes this is not "|" (pipe), that is a different thing. Thanks a lot. --Satdeep Gill (ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ) 16:10, 12 ਮਈ 2016 (UTC)

Authority control

Hi Tow, I saw you have been adding this template to a lot of pages. I guess you should not do it or either explain this in village pump and convince other community members before making such edits on a large scale. --Satdeep Gill (ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ) 07:12, 13 ਮਈ 2016 (UTC)

Request

Greetings.

Could you translate the article en:Flag of Azerbaijan into Punjabi?

Thank you.
