Typing in Gurmukhi

ਸੋਧੋ

Hi,

I don't speak Punjabi, but I am developing software for better language support in Wikipedia and Gurmukhi is one of the alphabets on which I am focused now. I developed a new tool for typing Gurmukhi, which is supposed to be better then what is currently enabled in the Punjabi Wikipedia.

Can you please test it on this page http://translatewiki.net/wiki/User:Amire80/narayam-pa?uselang=pa ?

You can find the full instructions for typing Gurmukhi there.

Thank you very much! --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) ੧੬:੪੯, ੩੦ ਅਪਰੈਲ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Thanks for your recent contribution, ਹੀਰ ਰਾਂਝਾ. Please consider adding references and read ਉਦਾਸੀਨ ਨਜ਼ਰੀਆ (or neutral point of view in English). And tell me can you read and understand Punjabi (written in Gurmukhi script). Tari Buttar ੦੩:੩੭, ੬ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Yes i can surely read and write Gurmukhi script. --Satdeep gill (talk) ੧੭:੧੫, ੧੬ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Copy-paste template creation

ਸੋਧੋ

Sat sri akaal, thanks for your contributions. You are creating templates by copy-paste from english wiki. I want to inform you that they don't give output in punjabi and so articles been tagged for deletion for not being in punjabi and english titles also not give well. Plz try to create a punjabi on or you can help improving the punjabi version at {{ਜ ਬ ਸ਼ਖ਼ਸ}}. Please consider testing your improvements by using {{ਪਰਖ}} , it is created to test any template before creating them. And one more important thing is that copying from english wiki creates many problems many of large templates are further based on many templates, of which the punjabi wiki lacks mostly, so they don't work properly here. Please keep this in mind and try to improve ਨਮੂਨਾ:ਜ ਬ ਸ਼ਖ਼ਸ but please test before you add and plz don't move without discussion on the talk page. Please improve template giving punjabi output instead of english or create them after translating them for punjabi output. Thanks Tari Buttar ੧੬:੩੮, ੧੬ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Tari Buttar Ji . Actually i am putting infobox in some articles , so there they ask for the template . So, i am doing what i learned today from Shiju Alex today for making infobox. I am also keeping a check on it and keep editing the template according to the requirement. For e.g. i change Birth to ਜਨਮ , Death to ਮੌਤ and so on . --Satdeep gill (talk) ੧੭:੧੨, ੧੬ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
There are many templates that are based on other templates. If any of them is not on this wiki they won't work. And almost every english wiki template have unwanted english categories in it. So please take care of that. You'll learn to do better as you experience, I hope so. Our intend is to improve the wiki in every sense. Thank you!

--Tari Buttar ੧੦:੫੯, ੧੭ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Don't worry, I will keep a watch on it  :)

--Satdeep gill (talk) ੧੨:੩੮, ੧੭ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

And please consider removing the English categories that are include by situation on page the template is used and also remove parameters that are not useful on Punjabi wiki yet. E.g. "Body" parameter in "Infobox person" and so on... --Tari Buttar ੧੨:੪੫, ੧੭ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
I will remove things as long as they create a problem while viewing the main article. --Satdeep gill (talk) ੧੨:੫੦, ੧੭ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
before creating plz test them using {{ਪਰਖ}}. It would be better way to remove errors and unwanted things and it'll also add quality to your work. --Tari Buttar ੧੩:੨੫, ੧੭ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
Ok and thank you very much.

ਸੰਤ ਸਿੰਘ ਸੇਖੋਂ

ਸੋਧੋ

Sat sri akaal, thanks for your recent contribution for ਸੰਤ ਸਿੰਘ ਸੇਖੋਂ. And please note that you created it just as the copy-paste from www.thesundayindia.com; Please avoid this (copy-paste) in future. Many statements can be retrieved from a website with reference but the full copy-paste may violates the copyright of the website and also not allowed on wiki. I've removed some text avoiding this issue so please don't put it back. --Tari Buttar ੧੨:੦੯, ੧੮ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Ok . I won't do it again. I have a few books published by Punjabi University and in it they have given information about different writers. Can I use that or not ? --Satdeep gill (talk) ੧੩:੩੭, ੧੮ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Yes, if they really exists, you can use them. You can use this form. Fill this and add at the desired field in your article:
<ref>{{cite book|title= (title of the book) |author= (author of the book) |year= (year of it's publishing) |publisher= (publisher's name) |isbn= (10 or 13 digits ISBN number e.g. "81-454-2567-4" mostly at the back cover) |page= (page number where the info is e.g. "14-28") |pages= (total pages) |accessdate= (today's date)}}</ref>
and text in the brackets is just to tell you about the field you have to fill it accordingly. Here is the all empty form:
<ref>{{cite book |title= |author= |year= |publisher= |isbn= |page= |pages= |accessdate=}}</ref>

For an example, you can check the article ਹਰਦੇਵ ਦਿਲਗੀਰ, under which I used a reference to a book named "ਇਹ ਹੈ ਕੁਲਦੀਪ ਮਾਣਕ". And if you didn't get something or any doubt, plz ask again. Tari Buttar ੧੭:੦੦, ੧੮ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Wikis as sources

ਸੋਧੋ

Sat Sri Akaal, satdeep. I've told you before may be you didn't read that wikis (sites having "wiki" in their names), as being edited by users, not considered as reliable sources, plz don't add them as sources. The recent example is your article ਕੜ੍ਹੀ ਪੱਤੇ ਦਾ ਰੁੱਖ in which you did that and many time before. Please add them as [[wiki name:Article's name]] so that they can appear at bottom in "ਹੋਰ ਜ਼ਬਾਨਾਂ ਵਿਚ" as link to other wikipedias; not as sources. For example, for your recent article you should add [[en:Curry Tree]]. When you write an article, please make a search on Google about the term in english or better if in punjabi , you'll get many results which of them proves your statement better add it after the statement in your article, but plz avoid blogs, facebook and of course wikis. And plz check the previous msg (above) that's also helpful for you. Tari Buttar ੧੬:੩੮, ੨੨ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

The article is translated so i add it like that. I know the method for adding wiki in other languages. But i do it because you ask for references. But how am i supposed to give any references if i haven't used anything else on the internet except Wiki ??? --Satdeep gill (talk) ੦੧:੫੮, ੨੩ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

I've told you that you can simply search for the term (e.g. ਲੌਂਗ) on google and go to results one by one and if any of the results proves a statement in your wiki article, then copy the link of that page and a title under which the text is written on that page and use {{cite web}}; fill in the URL and title in the fields and add <ref> and </ref> surrounding that template for example, <ref>{{cite web| url= example.com |title= example}}</ref> and add it after that statement it proves. And please avoid blogs, your own sites and facebook as being unreliable sources. And an easy method is that check what the other wiki provided as sources for that article, you may use the same sources. And for displaying your sources added above, create a section at the bottom of your article saying, ਹਵਾਲੇ and then use a template {{ਹਵਾਲੇ}} in that section that will automatically list the sources you provided above that. Hope it'll help. Please ask further if any doubt. Tari Buttar ੧੨:੧੬, ੨੩ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
Okey got it and thank you very much. --Satdeep gill (talk) ੧੨:੩੬, ੨੩ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
But there is hardly anything on internet in Punjabi. Like now i tried ਲੌਂਗ but i couldn't find anything. Give me suggestions now. --Satdeep gill (talk) ੧੨:੪੨, ੨੩ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
Satdeep, you can use the English references also since Punjabis can follow English also. The sources listed on English wikipedia article is an easy way to find references. Getting Punjabi reference is not easy. In most cases references may not be existing (unless the topic is about Punjab or Punjabis) In fact that is true for all Indic langauges. So use English or Punjabi (if it is available)--Shijualex (talk) ੧੬:੨੫, ੨੩ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
Thanx for the advice Shiju Alex Ji. I was also hoping for something like this. I felt nice to hear from you again. Thanx again. --Satdeep gill (talk) ੧੬:੫੮, ੨੩ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
I've already told you to search the term in Punjabi or English as English sources can also be used. :-) Tari Buttar ੦੦:੨੯, ੨੪ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
Ok Tari Ji. Actually you said me to search in punjabi(e.g. ਲੌਂਗ). Anyway thanx for all help till date. You have taught me a lot. --Satdeep gill (talk) ੦੧:੨੧, ੨੪ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
You're always welcome! And for your every comment on talk pages (except the very first for which the section is created) plus one “:” every time (note the last change I did to your just previous msg). Tari Buttar ੦੨:੨੦, ੨੪ ਅਗਸਤ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Briefe wiki style guideline

ਸੋਧੋ

I noticed you asking about the wiki article style on my talk page here but removed. So, here is the briefe guideline:

  • First of all please follow the neutral point of view, never use honorific words in the title and also avoid using praising words in the article.
  • Subject of the article must be define in very first line of the article. For example: "hakam sufi was a noted Punjabi singer." never start with, hakam sufi da janam 3 march 1952 nu hoya. Ajj ohna da naam kise pehchan da mohtaj nahi and similar. Make the subject clear in the very first line.
  • Try to use the subject's name/article's title only once in the lead section and also not use it many times in the article.
  • Never repeate statements in the article.
  • Link to other wiki articles by placing two square brackets [[]] around a word (only if the articles for that word is exist). For e.g., hakam sufi was a noted [[Punjabi]] singer. Now, the word "Punjabi" will appear as a blue link that will link to a separate article exists for Punjabi.
  • Break the article into sections accordingly.
  • Always categorize your article by adding the appropriate category to it. --tari Buttar (talk) ੧੫:੧੨, ੫ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
Tari, is this written in a policy page somewhere? It must be written as a policy page, not as a talk page comment. It must also be written in Punjabi and not just in English. And finally, there must be agreement about it in the Community Portal. --ਅਮੀਰ ਏਲਿਸ਼ਾ ਅਹਰੋਨਿ / Amir E. Aharoni (talk) ੧੬:੨੫, ੫ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

I Agree with Amire --Satdeep gill (talk) ੧੬:੪੭, ੫ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Thanks for all your contributions and articles that you create, but please work! do not just copy infoboxes from the English wiki and paste them here to use them in an article, please find one that is already in punjabi or translate them properly. Thank you >>Zarienah (talk) ੧੦:੪੫, ੨੬ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

A discussion should be made and they must created after translating properly. For this purpose they can be improved using a draft. I've seen many templates created here; just copied from the en.wiki that also created many English categories. We must be careful as this kind of work adds to the garbage here. --tari Buttar (talk) ੧੧:੧੩, ੨੬ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

I will do it. It is a stage in the process. Don't be in such a hurry to remove such things. --Satdeep gill (talk) ੧੨:੨੮, ੨੬ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Sorry but it is a matter that must be speedily removed because this is the Punjabi wikipedia and we can't use English templates, readers want to see Punjabi here not English.The same applies in the English Wikipedia, if there is a German template it is removed because readers want english. Please work on your templates before using them. Thanks >>Zarienah (talk) ੧੨:੫੫, ੨੬ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
Good to see you translated some of them, but there already is a Punjabi template for language, see and use {{Infobox Language}}. >>Zarienah (talk) ੧੨:੫੯, ੨੬ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Ok Zarienah, I understand it. I have seen the Language Infobox but how am i supposed to use it? You do this one and i will do it afterwards.--Satdeep gill (talk) ੧੩:੦੩, ੨੬ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

This template still has problems and the input needs translation, but the output is in pure Punjabi so it is better that the one you used in „ਉਰਦੂ“, use it like this:
{{Infobox Language
|name =
|nativename = 
|states = 
|region = 
|speakers = 
|rank = 
|script = 
|familycolor = 
|fam1 = 
|fam2 = 
|fam3 = 
|nation = 
|iso1 = 
|iso2 =
|iso2b =
|iso2t =
|iso3 =
|lc1 =
|lc2 = 
|lc3=
|map =
}}

Hope it helps, >>Zarienah (talk) ੧੩:੨੪, ੨੬ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

please, I ask you again, before creating and using templates, translate them properly or import and work on them in your userspace. Please also remember to translate the titles and inputs of the templates, not just only the outputs. Please consider this --Zarienah ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤਯੋਗਦਾਨ ੧੭:੨੪, ੨੮ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

I don't have the provision to delete previous pages and i will see what i can do. --Satdeep gill (ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ) ੧੭:੩੦, ੨੮ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

You can however move them to the Punjbi title, so please do that, and please don't be to quick to create them in the first place. Thanks --Zarienah ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤਯੋਗਦਾਨ ੧੭:੩੭, ੨੮ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Ok. But let me tell that this time i was only trying to the correct the template already created. I didn't create it . --Satdeep gill (ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ) ੧੭:੪੪, ੨੮ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Sat Sri Akaal! Thanks for uploading the file. I've checked you provided only "ਅੰਗਰੇਜੀ ਵਿੱਕੀ" as the source that's not the right info about the source. The "source" parameter needs a link. So, please prove a link to the page from where you got this. Also, remember not to provide the end page address with ".jpeg" etc. extension. Please provide a source. --tari buttar [ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ] ੦੬:੦੨, ੩੦ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Sat Sri Akaal Satdeep! Please work and/or get proper resources, wikipedia is not a child's Punjabi first reading book so please punctuate your contributions properly thanks, --Zarienah ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤਯੋਗਦਾਨ ੧੫:੫੧, ੪ ਅਕਤੂਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

also please refrain from using foreign number systems because the Gurmukhi script already has a number system of its own, so please use it. Dont think that some bot is delivering these messages or they are for amusement, please take note and act accordingly, otherwise you will be reverted. --Zarienah ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤਯੋਗਦਾਨ ੧੭:੩੨, ੪ ਅਕਤੂਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Gurmukhi number system is very less used nowadays. Every living language keeps on changing and Punjabi is yet a very much living language. Now Arabic Numerals are used much frequent. Almost all the Punjabi books use this numbering i.e. 1,2,3. And also there is a problem with them too. ੯ , this character overlaps with others. So, I don't think any reason to do so If we are not able to read it. --Satdeep gill (ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ) ੧੭:੩੭, ੪ ਅਕਤੂਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

This is the punjabi Wikipedia and the rest of us are using Gurmukhi numerals, it is your opinion that the language has moved on but the punjabi Wikipedia community still uses Gurmukhi, you will have to follow the community standars, also take note to punctuate properly otherwise you will be reverted. --Zarienah ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤਯੋਗਦਾਨ ੧੭:੪੬, ੪ ਅਕਤੂਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
It may be a coincident but Charan Gill also notified about approximately the same mistakes under Spaces and Punjabi number system on their talk page. Anyway both the accounts already accused for sockpuppetery bcz of this. --tari buttar [ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ] ੦੩:੫੯, ੫ ਅਕਤੂਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
Tari ji Actually we discussed about it. So we came to this conclusion. And i would like to say again that we have a problem with ੯ , this character overlaps with others. If this gets corrected then it will be much easier to use Gurmukhi numerals. --Satdeep gill (ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ) ੧੦:੨੧, ੫ ਅਕਤੂਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
No! You will have to discuss that with the community instead of making up your own conclusion and imposing it on us, follow the community standard not your personal/family preference, also take careful note of your punctuation issues --Zarienah ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤਯੋਗਦਾਨ ੧੧:੨੫, ੫ ਅਕਤੂਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

If you are so concerned about ੯ then go and vote on the Bugzilla case that a opened up last month here. and your punctuation marks are not spaced properly, you have had enough warnings, if your punctuation issues are not sorted I will revert them. Please help wikipedia by working on it instead of adding sloppy text, thanks --Zarienah ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤਯੋਗਦਾਨ ੧੩:੧੯, ੫ ਅਕਤੂਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Read discussion taken place carefully.This is because of wiki using lohit font. But if you use saab font or reset font option in select font options given at top of main page , Hope it solves the problem and spaces overlapping etc shall be avoided . Tell me , if you are able to solve this problem with ੯ .In my opinion reset font is better choice because it uses raavi font which is a widows system default unicode punjabi font. --Guglani (ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ) ੦੮:੧੩, ੬ ਅਕਤੂਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Thanks Zarienah! for correct nomenclature interwiki for interwiki links. Now Satdeep! Font option is given on top of every page displayed in wiki in see this link http://awesomescreenshot.com/020idc10e

When you click this link select font on your wiki page you see screen shot for font options .At this pull down menu you can select Saab or reset option to display digit ੯ correctly by clicking in the appropriate radio button.Hope it solves your problem. Feel free to ask again if you do not understand.--Guglani (ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ) ੧੧:੨੪, ੭ ਅਕਤੂਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

Guglani Ji, I want to bring it to your notice that while using saab font "khakhe pair bindi" is displayed with top of khakha covered like "ਖ਼". View it in Saab font to see the problem. It works fine with reset or lohit (in which 9 doesnt work properly). Please do tell about the solution.--Babanwalia (ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ) ੧੧:੪੧, ੭ ਅਕਤੂਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
Babanwalia!SSA. You are welcome for your contributions. If you had read the link referred by me on community portal you would have seen discussion about both problems. Any way these font problems are to be solved outside the wiki but for our use we can have correct display of both ੯ and ਖ਼ by clicking at reset button which utilizes Raavi unicode font.--Guglani (ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ) ੧੨:੦੬, ੭ ਅਕਤੂਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
Thnx :)--Babanwalia (ਗੱਲ-ਬਾਤ) ੧੨:੧੦, ੭ ਅਕਤੂਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
