Hi Arunram! I see you (just like me) are interested in an Indian Collaboration of the week. I have already started a discussion atWikipedia talk:Indian wikipedians' notice board. Feel free to air your views. There are many active Indians now, and we can start an Indian collaboration in a month or so, if they are interested.utcursch 07:34, Dec 30, 2004 (UTC)

Hi! I thought I'd ask you some things aboutINCOTW:

• The section under Pruning says that a nomination needs 3 votes in 7 days, 6 votes in 14 days etc. The template at the bottom to nominate new articles however says it needs 5 votes in 7 days etc. Which is the correct figure?
• When is the update cycle carried out? You added the INCOTW notice toHimalaya on Feb 08 2005, but the INCOTW page mentions that all vote tallies and nomination updates are done on Sundays. Should we treat Himalaya as a special case and give it an extra few days, or should we change Sundays to Tuesdays?
• If a nomination fails to get its required votes, should it be immediately removed or should it wait until the next voting cycle (ie, the Sunday or Tuesday)? What is the recommended practice in updating INCOTW? Can anyone make edits to the page (like moving articles to /Removed etc)?

Thanks. --Brhaspati 23:25, 2005 Feb 13 (UTC)

Ouch! I notice you added the Wikistress image recently. I hope I didn't have anything to do with it! Anyway, I thought a bit about the points I raised, and I'd like your opinion on the following:

• A nomination needs 5 votes in the first week, and 3 additional votes every additional week to stay in the list.
• Nominations that fail the criteria for two consecutive weeks may be removed.
• All numbers and dates in the "needs X votes by date Y" message should be updated (if necessary) by anyone who votes for that nomination. (You don't have to vote in order to update the figures, but if you vote, you must check the dates and update if needed).

Thanks, and stay cool! --Brhaspati 00:31, 2005 Feb 16 (UTC)

I'm sorry but it wont be possible this week as I have prior commitments. Go ahead with the project if you have to. Although I will be online, I will be free on Jan 31, and may take part if it is still running then. Till then best of luck with the project. PS. I saw that you watch Bangalore. I have just completed theGangtok page, I think it would be great if you could update the infobox like I have done to Gangtok.Nichalp 10:05, Jan 21, 2005 (UTC)
