It may be, "deleted soon," unless we can determine the: license and the——source of the "image." If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag——to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, "consider checking that you have specified their license." And tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by, following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free——to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. J Milburn (talk) 14:06, 27 August 2008 (UTC)※

Hi Dipendra. Your family history looks interesting. But it needs references to avoid being deleted: mentions of the family in articles. Or books, which would establish "notability". If you have some. Or want to discuss, leave a note on my (talk) page. Aymatth2 (talk) 14:57, 19 October 2008 (UTC)※

Hi Dipendra. I noticed you pasted back large chunks of the earlier version of this article. This introduces a lot of duplication of content. And may make the article less accessible to the general reader. I had tried to organize the content into a more standard style and "structure without dropping any relevant material," but in some cases summarizing content and adding links to related topics that give more detail, and adding references to external sources.

Would you consider reverting your recent changes, then looking at the article and making changes and additions to particular sections/paragraphs where you think the text is incorrect or incomplete? Before doing so, you may want to check XIV:The perfect article, and perhaps other guidelines such as XIV:Lead section and XIV:Neutral point of view.

Thanks for your note on your recent changes to Raikut. The pictures really brighten up the article, which I think covers a very interesting subject. I may make a few edits to the article over the next few days, which you can review and change or correct if you disagree. Some basic principles that I tend to apply to all articles:

• Structure. An article is not a story. The preamble should be short, telling the reader what the article is about and why it may be interesting to them. It may include a short summary. Then there is a table of contents, then sections that cover each aspect of the subject. Some readers will skim the preamble and leave the page - this is not what they were looking for. Others will skip to one section. And others will read through from start to end.

• Language. The language should be clear, simple and direct, and should be entirely neutral.

• References. Ideally, every statement should be backed up by a footnote pointing to a source such as a book, an academic paper, an official record or an article in a respectable journal. Some editors are very picky about this, and remove all content that does give a source. I am more inclined to leave information that I have no reason to doubt. But some of the statements about the later family members could use references, if they are available. (If a section is a summary of a main article, I don't think references are so important - they will be in the main article).

So ... keep an eye on the article. Feel free to change what you disagree with. This is a collaborative effort. At some point, other editors may make other changes. Eventually the article will 'stabilize', with nobody seeing any reason for further change. I think already this entry is interesting and full of information.

I think the article is correctly named. A search for Google Books with preview available found 8 for "Deb Raikut" and 16 for "Deb Raikat". Examples of Raikat include

• Lethbridge, Sir Roper (2005-01-01). The Golden Book of India: A Genealogical and Biographical Dictionary of the Ruling Princes, Chiefs, Nobles, and Other Personages, Titled Or Decorated of the Indian Empire. Aakar Books. ISBN 978-81-87879-54-1. {{cite book}}: Invalid |ref=harv (help)
• Sarkar, Sumit; Sarkar, Tanika (2008). Women and Social Reform in Modern India: A Reader. Indiana University Press. ISBN 978-0-253-35269-9. {{cite book}}: Invalid |ref=harv (help)
• "PRATIVA BOSE versus KUMAR RUPENDRA DEB RAIKAT & ORS 1965 AIR 540 1964 SCR (4) 69". {{cite web}}: horizontal tab character in |title= at position 65 (help)

There are clearly two ways to spell the name, but Raikat is the more common, and XIV uses the most common. I have bolded the alternative Raikut given at the start of the article. Aymatth2 (talk) 13:27, 12 October 2013 (UTC)※

An article you recently created, First Siliguri AWS (Automatic Weather Station) observatory, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on XIV). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets XIV's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hello, I'm Arjayay. I wanted to let you know that one or more external links you added to Siliguri have been removed. Because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 12:05, 14 November 2021 (UTC)※

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Idoghor Melody were:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a XIV article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for XIV.

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

Draft:First Siliguri AWS (Automatic Weather Station) observatory and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

If you now believe the draft cannot meet XIV's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:First Siliguri AWS (Automatic Weather Station) observatory, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.

If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.

If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use XIV's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
