This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.213.0.0/16 has been blocked by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~}}. You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

== Hem Raj BC == 

hi, I am a fan trying to create a page for Nepali film director Hem Raj BC who directed popular movie [[Jerryy]] & [[Hostel (2013 film)]]. It seems that most of his works have a wikipedia but his bio was not found here.  Could some of you guys help me as it has not been able to pass for conflict of interest. Could someone help with the editing as well? thank you!

== Kirat Mundhum ==

Can someone more familiar with Nepal have a look at  [[Kirat Mundhum]]? There seems to be some nonsense (highlighted for emphasis) recently added in the first sentence by a couple of editors:<blockquote>'''Kirat Mundhum''' (also ''Kirati Mundhum''), <span style="padding:0 2px;background-color:#fde586">are the stories recited/sung by the shamans</span><sup>&#91;added [[Special:diff/862555923|here]]&#93;</sup> (called 'Fedangma/Samba') of the [[Kirati people|Kirati]] ethnic groups <span style="background-color:#fde586; padding:0 3px">of the [[Indian subcontinent]]</span><sup>&#91;added [[Special:diff/877058311|here]]&#93;</sup>: [[Limbu]], [[Rai people|Rai]], [[Sunuwar people|Sunuwar]] and [[Yakkha]] peoples.{{fake reference|1}}</blockquote>
Since [[Special:permalink/186013617|creation]] in 2008, Kirat Mundhum has been described as the religion of the Kira[n]ts of Nepal, not a bunch of "stories", until [[Special:diff/862555923|this IP edit]] in October. 

Furthermore, the Kirats appear to be a Himalayan people, mostly of Nepal; changing their territory to "Indian subcontinent" ([[Special:diff/877058311|here]]), makes about as much sense as saying they're from "the Eurasian continent".  Formerly, it just said "of Nepal and India" (until [[Special:diff/646914730|this edit]] added a bunch of countries not supported by the following ref). Probably it should just go back to saying, "Nepal and India" again (or "northern"/"Himalayan" India, or some such).

== Population of VDC's:  please update based upon the 2011 census.   ==

The population data for villages in Nepal that are provided in articles seems to be very much out of date or inaccurate, according to a sampling of a few in [[Sindhupalchok District]], namely:
* [[Choukati]] & [[Maneshwara]] — data for 1991.
* [[Pagretar]] — data for 1991, and unverified data for 2001.  
* [[Pedku]] — unverified data for 2001 or 2013.  
* [[Tauthali]] — unverified data for 2001 or 2013, and unverified data for unstated year.  
Today I have updated each of these with data from the 2011 census (the most recent one).  

I suggest that each village in Nepal with a Wikipedia article be updated to provide number of people (men and women) and number of households.  
This can be done by following the examples on the abovementioned pages that I have already updated, using a format like:<br>
<small><nowiki>{{As of|2011|alt=In 2011}}</nowiki> the official population was '''2762''' ('''1507''' females and '''1255''' males) in '''776''' households<nowiki>.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://cbs.gov.np/wp-content/upLoads/2018/12/23-Sindhupalchowk_VDCLevelReport.pdf |title=
SINDHUPALCHOWK |volume=Volume 06, NPHC2011 |at=Table 2.1: Households, population and average household size. Data for "</nowiki>'''Tauthali'''<nowiki>". |work=National Population and Housing Census 2011 (Village Development Committee/Municipality) |via=https://cbs.gov.np/vdc-municipality-in-detail/ |publisher=Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), National Planning Commission Secretariat, Government of Nepal |place=Kathmandu, Nepal |date=19 March 2014 |publicationdate=2018 |accessdate=</nowiki>'''2019-06-25'''<nowiki> |deadurl= |archiveurl= |archivedate= |df= |format=PDF }}</ref>
</nowiki></small><br>
Obviously the data in bold need to be changed for other villages in Sindhupalchok District, and various additional entries would need to be adapted for other districts.  

This could be done entirely manually.  Alternatively, some clever person might be able to create a convenient template like <nowiki>{{Nepal-village-population|2011|Tauthali|p=2762|f=1507|m=1255|h=776}}</nowiki>.  Ideally some extremely clever person would create a bot, but with the variation in spelling of the village names, this seems impractical.  

By the way, I still think the issue of verifying "official" English names of Nepali villages needs more attention.

== Merging the five old development region articles into the main [[Development regions of Nepal]] article ==

After 2015, the [[Provinces of Nepal]] came to be. The five old articles for the development regions still exist, and they're generally poorly cited or just stubs. I suggest that someone with more expertise to just merge all of the necessary information from the articles to the main [[Development regions of Nepal]] article and then redirect all of them there. If there is some information that pertains to the new provinces, it can be added to those articles instead.

The old development region articles:

[[Eastern Development Region, Nepal]]

[[Central Development Region, Nepal]]

[[Western Development Region, Nepal]]

[[Mid-Western Development Region, Nepal]]

[[Far-Western Development Region, Nepal]]

It's not even really that difficult, but as so much of the information is uncited, I'm not sure where to begin myself. Maybe very little of it is really needed. [[User:Mr. Magoo and McBarker|Mr. Magoo]] ([[User talk:Mr. Magoo and McBarker|talk]]) 21:05, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
:{{u|Mr. Magoo and McBarker}}, they have scope for full expansion as standalone articles. So, I am inclined to leave them be. Regards! '''[[User:Usedtobecool|Usedtobecool]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Usedtobecool|☎️]]''' 18:08, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

== [[Yadukuha]] ==

Could some brave soul please take a look at this page. Seriously, it has to be one of the worst pages I have seen on WP. I think it needs a total re-write, massive update, or revert to about 2010, or earlier.

Eg "For an entire generation of students in the 1970s, Bidehanagar was a codeword for fierce resistance, ceaseless struggle and spirit of sacrifice." 😲 That's been on the page for nearly 3 years. Unsourced, of course. [[user:220 of Borg|'''220''']] [[Special:Contributions/220 of Borg|''<small>of</small>'']] <sup>[[User talk:220 of Borg|''Borg'']]</sup> 08:23, 6 March 2020 (UTC)

:::True, but I ''have'' had quite a bit to do with some Indian and [[List of Pakistani political families|Pakistani ones]]! 😣 {{facepalm}}  There was [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bideha,_Dhanusa&diff=944191630&oldid=944190254 '''this'''] I did yesterday too.<br>Could be a case, which I've seen before, of a page with a similar name being 'hijacked' because a newby editor doesn't know how to start a new page, so they just change a 'John Smith' page to be about another 'John Smith' entirely. Yadukuha had content relating to '[[Videha Municipality]]' (which is apparently [[Bideha, Dhanusa]]) dumped into it, for example. A lot of IP editors from that region don't seem to agree on the difference between a village and a town, or city, too.

:Your {{u|Pegship}}, I am pinging you here as I intend to ping a few others too. {{ping|CAPTAIN MEDUSA|SS49|Raju Babu}}, please correct me if I'm wrong:

:Pegship, I am looking at [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rugha&type=revision&diff=951994308&oldid=785818621&diffmode=source your edits to Rugha], and I'm thinking you might have been thrown off by the outdated tenses. Rugha was a VDC in Rukum District of Rapti Zone, Mid-Western Development Region. The VDC by this name does not exist anymore, though it is likely there is an eponymous village that would not pass GNG or GEOLAND somewhere within the territories of the former VDC. Currently, the whole area (area, not a named place encompassing the area) is a part of [[Tribeni, Western Rukum|Tribeni Rural Municipality]], Western Rukum District, Karnali Pradesh.

:So, my thoughts are (and it comes out of an almost complete ignorance regarding Wikipedia practices on the issue): the article should describe Rugha as a former VDC in former Rukum District, former Rapti Zone, former Mid-Western Development Region. Under this scheme, the template in question would still be relevant. The fact that the area is now under Tribeni of West Rukum, Karnali should be mentioned only as an afterthought. The template {{tlp|West Rukum District}} could still be included since that is where the area now falls under. Instead of the populated places category(I do not know if all geo articles '''must''' be in a populated places category), I would suggest [[:Category:Former VDCs in Western Rukum District]] which would be a child of [[:Category:VDCs of Rukum District]]. Stubsorting, I think, is fine as is, though, now that I think about it, something like "This article about a [former-VDC/historical-place/something-similar] in Karnali Pradesh of Nepal is a stub" might be better (That would be seven specific cats for some 4000 articles; not that stub-sorting is the most-pertinent of the updates those articles are missing right now).

:Regards! '''[[User:Usedtobecool|Usedtobecool]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Usedtobecool|☎️]]''' 06:52, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
::Hi there! I appreciate any education on this topic. I have been assigning stub templates and categories, but not usually editing the articles' content (figured I or someone else would get to that eventually). The "populated places" category is hit-or-miss - some district categories have one and some don't - and any re-arranging, renaming, or creation of categories such as you suggested would provide a great deal of clarity. If the Rukum and Nawalpuri District templates should still exist, I will withdraw the TfD, go on merrily stub sorting, and leave actual geography to those who know more about it. Cheers!

:::{{u|Pegship}}, I think that might be best, at least for now. I have reverted Raju Babu's modification of the template, and will wait for them and hopefully others to join.
:::If you will withdraw the nomination, I will start a new discussion on standardising all district templates, along with exceptions. We do have a lack of clarity on what to do with the VDCs in other districts also; some districts templates seem to have deleted all evidence of prior divisions, while some had them moved to a historical subgroup last I checked. We don't seem to have the quorum of editors to establish consensus or implement them. That's why I have been reluctant to dive into anything major. I will formulate a proposal and go by the [[WP:SILENCE]] route if need be.

:::::Hi Captain - I think a non-stub template might be more appropriate (like the district template currently under discussion). Stub types follow a specific pattern and process, and I can tell you that a VDC-level stub type is not currently needed for stub sorting purposes. The stub sorting project is currently re-sorting articles from zones into provinces, and after that we'll look at the numbers for districts. If you feel strongly about creating any kind of stub, I invite you to discuss it over at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting]]. Thank you for your efforts, but I think [[Template:Karnali-formervdc-stub]] should be deleted.

== Geo stub types ==

Greetings all! Pursuant to changes made in the administrative divisions of Nepal in 2015, and due to the very large number of geographic stub types thereof, the Stub sorting Project has created stub templates by province and district and is in the process of emptying the zone-geo-stub categories.

If you'd prefer something just as useful but not quite as tedious, please feel free to update the contents of the articles, as the text still gives the old location in most cases.

== New map and area of Nepal ==

The Government of Nepal recently published a new map incorporating disputed territories under Indian administration, officially increasing the country's area, and changing its official map as well as emblems that include the map. The emblems, when published, will, I assume, without controversy, be adopted by Wikipedia articles that use them. As for the map, I think the convention is to display disputed territories with dotted boundaries. So, maps of Nepal, and perhaps India (if the territory is discernible in the scale used) will have to be updated. Presently, there has been a flood of driveby edits updating the area of Nepal wherever it appears. I have tried to address the issue with edits like these in [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Geography_of_Nepal&type=revision&diff=957806276&oldid=957784443&diffmode=source Geography of Nepal], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nepal&type=revision&diff=957801449&oldid=957755482&diffmode=source Nepal] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_countries_and_dependencies_by_area&type=revision&diff=957809915&oldid=957781026 List of countries and dependencies by area]. The last one stuck, those in the domestic articles haven't. So, I would like this discussed.{{pb}}I will notify [[WP:Noticeboard for India-related topics|Noticeboard for India-related topics]], talk pages of the articles named above, [[WP:WikiProject Countries|WikiProject Countries]] and [[WP:WikiProject Maps|WikiProject Maps]] of this discussion.

: I think we should do nothing about maps until reliable [[WP:THIRDPARTY]] sources do.

I was thinking of taking it to [[WP:NPOVN]] at some point, when Nepal began to amplify its claims even further. Our practice has generally been to colour the disputed areas as per the administering country.

Indeed, the current Jammu and Kashmir maps are ideal. No colouring, no shading, no hatching. Just dotted lines around the claimed areas.

{{U|Usedtobecool}}, every day we revert dozens of Indian/Pakistani editors pushing their countries' brandings on the others' territories. Nepalese editors doing it is nothing new for us. What justification do we use? "Unsourced edit" is the easiest, because most such edits never bother giving a source or write edit summaries justifying their edits. If they give national sources, we demand [[WP:NPOV]] or [[WP:THIRDPARTY]]. Every Wikipedia editor is supposed to follow [[WP:NPOV]]. It doesn't matter what country they are from, or whether they are experienced or inexperienced, registered or unregistered. Note also that Wikipedia doesn't have any special policies for countries or governments. They are sources just like any other. If they make claims about themselves, they are just [[WP:SPS]] and have no value for Wikipedia. -- [[User:Kautilya3|Kautilya3]] ([[User talk:Kautilya3|talk]]) 12:48, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
:{{u|Kautilya3}}, but the NPOV or SPS dispute would still come under valid content dispute, no? I was confident enough reverting when the edits were unsourced, but then they had government sources, then national papers, now Indian and international papers as well. So, I would need to point to a consensus to justify continued reversion after that. And [[WP:3RR]] still applies to me, even if I am on the side of the right (Sorry I am no practical experience with conflict).

:: It is not our problem. The [[WP:BURDEN]] is on the editors making the changes to demonstrate [[WP:V]] and [[WP:NPOV]]. Since the Indian and Nepalese claims neutralise each other, how are they able to give priority to one over the other? It is their problem to demonstrate and convince us. 
:: If we run up against 3RR, we ask for help from other editors at the project pages or NPOV editors we know. If they exceed limits, we request page protection.

== District templates ==

We recently had a preliminary discussion at [[#Nomination for deletion of Template:Rukum District]] on what to do regarding District templates. It seems to me, clarity on the subject would help going forward. I have looked at some, and:
#For districts that exist now and did before, I like what {{u|GERNPL}} has done at {{tlp|Kathmandu District}} ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Kathmandu_District&diff=next&oldid=788915037&diffmode=source diff]).
#For districts that no longer exist, we should list VDCs and municipalities of the time, and make no mention of the new ones; since the district was gone when the new system came in. {{tlp|Nawalparasi District}} is an existing example.
#For new districts, we should list rural and urban municipalities and make no mention of the old VDCs or municipalities (if any). The old divisions were before their time, so they need not bother with them. {{tlp|Eastern Rukum District}} seems like the template to follow.{{pb}}Thoughts?{{pb}}Pinging {{u|Raju Babu|SS49}} who's been known to edit the templates. Pinging {{ping|CAPTAIN MEDUSA}} from previous discussion, and procedural ping to {{u|pegship}}. Everyone feel free to ping anyone else who might have an interest in this area. '''[[User:Usedtobecool|Usedtobecool]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Usedtobecool|☎️]]''' 07:47, 29 May 2020 (UTC){{pb}}fixing ping to {{ping|Raju Babu}}. '''[[User:Usedtobecool|Usedtobecool]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Usedtobecool|☎️]]''' 07:50, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
{{pb}}There were only two districts which were splited into total four new districts. Other districts are same how they were before. VDCs were a large unit consisting many villages togather. Now these units are nullified and meged with new formed Rural Municipalities/new formed urban municipalities/the existing old municipalities. 

I think VDCs should be listed only with the former two districts: [[Nawalparasi]] & [[Rukum]]. All other districts including four new districts shouldn't be listed former VDCs with it's templates because those VDCs are already a part of new formed Municipality/Rural Municipality. For example: [[Jalpachilaune]] was a VDC with 48 kmsq of area which had many Villages and the headquarter was in a remote village but now Jalpachilaune is just a small town (neighborhood) in Triyuga municipality. Now Jalpachilaune doesn't represent all of 48 kmsq of area. Now Jalpachilaune is a part of ward no. 16 in [[Triyuga]]. If anybody want to know about former VDCs he can check [[Former administrative units of Nepal]]. We do not use now former development regions, former zones and former VDCs---[[User:Raju Babu|&nbsp;👤<span style="background:transparent;padding:4px;color:blue;text-shadow:grey 0.2em 0.2em 0.3em">'''Raju'''</span>]][[user talk:Raju Babu|💌]] 12:23, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
:As mentioned by Raju Babu, all former VDCs are now parts of either Rural or Urban municipalities so these former VDCs should not be listed in the district templates. Should list current municipalities and rural municipalities and district headquarters.

:The templates' function is to link related articles together. We need a template to link the former VDCs. I think putting them into a historical section of existing templates would be just the right amount of work necessary. If consensus is reached against inclusion of former VDCs in the district templates, we will need separate sub-templates for each district. VDCs are a significant part of the history of any district, except the four new ones. So, I would favour including them in the existing templates, marking them properly as historical.

:{{re|CAPTAIN MEDUSA}} Talking about this with [[m:Wikimedians of Nepal|Wikimedians of Nepal]] members and I do personally agree with them, "Nepalese" is the standard English language term used formally wide across the nation such as in [[Nepalese passport]], [[Nepalese rupee]], etc. while "Nepali" is frequently used these days informally. Moreover, from the Nepali point of view, "Nepali" is correct, but from English point of view, "Nepalese" is preferred as it possesses the English language word syntax.

::I think cats on this project use "Nepalese", so new cats should follow that, and any movement toward "Nepali" would require a massive CFD or an RFC. That is just for consistency among cats, so there is no way that automatically translates into article space consensus in favour of "Nepalese". The two words are synonyms and are mostly interchangeable. I think it's not necessary to make an edit specifically to change from one to another unless it would be confusing or in error. If the majority of the sources use "Nepali" as the Cap'n claims is the case with [[Manisha Koirala]], then that may be a case where switching to "Nepali" may be justified. If Gotitbro disagrees, I think standard [[WP:BRD]] for local consensus should be the way to go, in absence of any overriding global one.. Nepali politicians, just like any other, say all the things all the time, I don't think just that fact makes it official or correct. I think there is a general movement toward "Nepali" even in International media, but I am not basing that on any data. I am not aware of any guideline which would justify favouring one over the other, and if there were actually an attempt to get Wikipedia to favour one usage over another, I think the result would be something similar to datevar/engvar/citevar.

:::Found beautiful and worth skimming conversation going here. As for the words, both words are possibly interchangeable. However, Nepalese has been consistently used in most of the wiki articles of/related to Nepal. For the common understanding and commonness 'Nepalese' has been accepted. Although the word 'Nepali' is generally seen in current trends, Nepalese is frequently and mostly used. I don't see why this should be argued more as both the words have no dissimilar meanings.

More, the word Nepali will be accepted as this conversation will slightly lighten the issue.

== Pokhara navbox ==

Hallo, {{U|Nd12052010}} seems to have misunderstood how navboxes work, and has included the full code for a Pokhara template into articles such as [[Lamachaur, Pokhara]], [[Amarsingh Chowk]], and presumably all the others included in what I've now created as {{tl|Pokhara}} navbox, which I made by lifting the code from [[Lamachaur, Pokhara]]. I hope what I've done is helpful, and I've fixed that one article, but there is still a lot of sorting out to be done, by this editor or helpful others. There are also a lot of spelled-out stubs, as if they;ve used "subst:Pokara-geo-stub", when stub templates should never be subst'd.  Too late at night, here, for me to do any more now. I know there is a push to create many many articles on Nepal at the moment, but I hope new editors are being helped to understand how to do so. Good luck.

::: {{u|CAPTAIN MEDUSA}} I was thinking more of a discussion/QA page more like the Teahouse or CVU/NPP schools specifically for new editors from Nepal. A bit friendlier than this page. Precisely because this page is the mainboard of the project and everyone is watching it, it's not suited to function as a training page or help desk. It doesn't have to be 10000's talk page, we could have a whole new project subpage for the purpose. Let's try it out for a couple of months; see if anyone shows up with questions. Of course I agree with your suggestion for a help page or a quick guide to creating the new articles or at the very least, a list of resources (help and PAG pages).

Hi! I was wondering if someone fluent (or at least fluent enough) in Nepalese could search for sourcing for [[Champa (novel)]]. It's currently up for deletion and I have a feeling that the bulk of sourcing will not be in English and I'd like to make sure that if it's deleted (or kept), it would only be after a good search for sourcing.

:Thank you {{u|BrownHairedGirl}}, I think they came here to move [[Province No. 5]] that was officially named today. They went with [[Lumbini Province]], which is inconsistent with the rest of our articles but objectively a superior choice I think. They likely noticed that the rest of the articles were using "Pradesh" and moved the ones they could find. It seems they are done, and I doubt they'll return. So, I'll revert rest of their moves, which, you're correct, should not have been done without discussion, as it requires an organised effort to update everything after any such moves. This will have the [[Lumbini Province]] as an odd one out for the time being. But considering the resources at our disposal vs the number of things that are urgent on WikiProject Nepal, I think that's ok.

== Christianity in Nepal ==

The article [[Christianity in Nepal]] needs a thorough rewriting. It is currently entirely based on Christian missionary sources and is extremely slanted in favor of Christianity (even citing that Christians would constitute 10% of the population while according to census they are 1.4%). There is a user who guards the article impeding any modification and the addition of problem tags. Based on the nickname, he is the very same author of many of the cited sources, a Christian missionary, and thus has a strong conflict of interest.--[[Special:Contributions/37.161.136.19|37.161.136.19]] ([[User talk:37.161.136.19|talk]]) 22:18, 23 February 2021 (UTC)

Second oli cabinet and Third oli cabinet are not different and the only difference is they come under second premiership and third premiership respectively as mentioned above. So a section for third premiership in same article, Second Oli cabinet can address both. Even the national medias term this as cabinet reshuffle. Can we deny this? It can be termed as second term of same cabinet as all the ministers remained same and same ministers took oath.

Except this article, you may not find this awkward topic, Third Oli canet any where. For your clarification:-
:What is a cabinet?
:Answer:the committee of senior ministers responsible for controlling government policy.(as found in dictionary) 
:If group of ministers is same in both Second and Third term of Oli, how can they be represented by different articles?

This includes the Anandi Devi factions. These Sadbhawana Parties broke and meged almost every year till 2017. Hence, they are not clearly notable.

== Village Development Committee ==

I think that [[List of village development committees of Nepal|Village Development Committee]] articles should be turned into village articles.

: I don't think that will work. A VDC is not the same as a village. There are usually many villages in a VDC. And all VDCs are notable per [[WP:NGEO]] but not all villages are. So, converting them to villages would reduce the articles' scope and make them non-notable. VDCs are a historical entity which are Wikipedia notable irrespective of current status. There is no reason to overwrite them. If there are notable villages, new articles can be created on them. Regards!

== Regarding, [[Template:Infobox Nepalese political party]] ==

I feel the template is to be developed else not remain isolated.  In opinion, let's use Infobox Nepalese political party removing template infobox political party from Nepalese political parties. It will be much helpful in long run. Someone experienced here needs to develop the infobox before doing this. For example: All Indian parties use Infobox Indian political party.

Hello fellow editors! I found three articles on same party or with some relation!

Well though I am unknown of what they all are related to, they seem same organisation.

== User script to detect unreliable sources ==

{{Main|User:Headbomb/unreliable}}
I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to [[WP:URS|unreliable sources]] and [[predatory journal]]s. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the [[Wikipedia:User scripts/Most imported scripts|39th most imported script on Wikipedia]]. The idea is that it takes something like
*John Smith "[https://www.deprecated.com/article Article of things]" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14. (<code><nowiki>John Smith "[https://www.deprecated.com/article Article of things]" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.</nowiki></code>)
and turns it into something like
* John Smith "{{highlight|[https://something.com Article of things]|pink}}" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.

It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{tl|cite web}}, {{tl|cite journal}} and {{tl|doi}}.

The script is mostly based on [[WP:RSPSOURCES]], [[WP:NPPSG]] and [[WP:CITEWATCH]] and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.

Do note that this is '''not a script to be mindlessly used''', and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at [[User:Headbomb/unreliable]]. Questions, comments and requests can be made at [[User talk:Headbomb/unreliable]].

== Gopal Gurung's nationality/citizenship ==

Can anybody provide a reliable source to settle once and for the question of [[Gopal Gurung]]'s nationality citizenship or even his place of birth (currently listed as Darjeeling)? It was listed as Indian for a long time, which seemed reasonable based on birth in India, but people have repeatedly changed it to Nepalese without citing a source. I've been reverting it but finally realized that there isn't a source there to support a claim of Indian nationality either, so I've removed that. It would be nice to put an end to this back-and-forth with a decent footnote. [[User:Largoplazo|Largoplazo]] ([[User talk:Largoplazo|talk]]) 18:43, 28 August 2022 (UTC)

== Project-independent quality assessments ==

Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at [[Wikipedia:Content assessment]], but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent [[WP:Village pump (proposals)/Archive_198#Project-independent_quality_assessments|Village pump proposal]] was approved and has been implemented to add a {{para|class}} parameter to {{tl|WikiProject banner shell}}, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.

No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to {{tl|WikiProject banner shell}}, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.

However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass {{tl|WPBannerMeta}} a new {{para|QUALITY_CRITERIA|custom}} parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.

Recently added to the infoboxes for (at least some) Districts is this:

== Gyanendra Bahadur Karki ==

I'm not familiar with Nepalese naming customs, however I'm wondering to differentiate the different articles (or potential articles) of Gyanendra Bahadur Karki. The current [[Gyanendra Bahadur Karki]] (born 1966) article is for former member of the [[2nd Nepalese Constituent Assembly]]. However, there is also Gyanendra Bahadur Karki (1930-1992) who was a former foreign minister (see: [[Minister of Foreign Affairs (Nepal)]] at #14) and there's also the Hon'ble Justice Mr. Gyanendra Bahadur Karki (born 1950) who was a former justice of the [[Supreme Court of Nepal]]; source: [https://supremecourt.gov.np/pages/cv_justices/cv_GyanendraBKarki.html] Of course, the obvious differentiation would be by birth year, but I didn't know if there were other names these individuals may be known by that would help.

== Rail Transport in Nepal ==
There has been informations all over the place about Rail Transport in Nepal. It's because the non existence of the right page they belong to, which is Rail Transport in Nepal, after realizing this I've put an effort to rebuild this once existing page. It's so inappropriate to redirect such a broad subject as Country's Rail Transportation to a Train operating company which runs only on one line. How can a country wide transport subject can be merged to a passenger service providing single company ? To fix this I tried to bring together all the scattered articles in wrong pages to the right page, first transferring railway transport related topics to Department of Railway's page as it's the authority in charge, then I found this page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rail_transport_by_country where Nepal's link is directed to all transportation page while other countries have a separated Rail Transportation page, some of which have no railway at all till date ? So it's hard to comprehend why Nepal Rail Transportation can't have it's page where all the history,current status and future project could be consisted ? As I was working towards it by moving all articles currently everywhere to the proper page, next day I come to take it further it's all gone ! Now have to start it all over again ! If it's going meet the same fate what's the point of trying to rebuild. But honestly, a country's Rail Transportation can't be in a company's page, it's like merging a country's entire river system into a boat service operator on one river.  <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:NeelAbodh|NeelAbodh]] ([[User talk:NeelAbodh#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/NeelAbodh|contribs]]) 16:23, 12 August 2023 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Hello WikiProject Nepal: 

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Green|WikiProject Women in Green]]''' is holding a ''' month-long [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Green/Meetup/5|Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2023]]'''!<br /><br />
Running from October 1 to 31, 2023, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme '''Around the World in 31 Days'''! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least '''31 countries''' (or broader international articles) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts. 

We hope to see you there!

== Recent edit warring regarding "Nepali" or "Nepalese" ==

Not sure if this WikiProject is active, but I'll try anyways. There's been some recent activity might I say with some editors changing "Nepalese" to "Nepali" without discussion/consensus. The articles involved include: [[Nepalese rupee]], [[Nepalese Civil War]], [[Nepalese royal massacre]], [[Nepalese Americans]], [[Nepalese Armed Forces]], [[Nepalese passport]], [[Nepalese cuisine]], [[Nepalese Army Air Service]], and [[Nepalis]].

[[User:Uzzwalkhanal]] was blocked regarding this after a discussion at [[Special:Diff/1180099981|WP:ANI (diff)]] raised by another editor.

Is there local WikiProject consensus on this? Does this need to be changed reflecting something that has changed recently? I'm completely unaware of this topic. [[User:Fork99|Fork99]] ([[User talk:Fork99|talk]]) 02:13, 15 October 2023 (UTC)

:I was aware of the incident. It looked more a problem of conduct to me. People who are not willing to slow down and discuss get blocked even if they are right; he probably is not.{{pb}}I am not aware of pre-existing consensus. The words are almost always interchangeable. Rise of nationalism, same as elsewhere, coupled with wider educational opportunities and access to the internet, means more people than usual will be trying to change "Nepalese" to "Nepali", as the former was a name given by the British without asking the Nepalese, and the latter is a Nepali word adopted without modification. Some populist minister tried to popularise "Nepali" a few years ago. That's the only recent change I know of, apart from the ongoing and accelerated in the past decade, general movement of the West, toward respecting other peoples.{{pb}}We don't have Nepali editors regularly active in the project. Any attempt at consensus either suffers from a lack of participation, or participation from editors who know nothing about the topic, or participation from editors pushing their own POVs. On rare occasions that Nepali editors do show up, they happen to have been canvassed from the Nepali Wikipedia.

Nepali is the word that denotes people of Nepal in the Nepali language. Nepalese was the term introduced by the British. People of Nepal prefer to call Nepali instead of Nepalese . Nepal government has already declared Nepali and Not Nepalese. [[User:Samirshass|Samirshass]] ([[User talk:Samirshass|talk]]) 04:32, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

* When I asked for page protection of some pages regarding this issue, they were protected, however the admin told me that this issue may require a [[WP:RFC|Request for Comment (RfC)]]. I think it should be up to the editor(s) who want the change to start an RfC, but we know that they want to edit war first before any attempt at discussion after the fact. And anyways, the original user is blocked and seemingly has no interest in asking for an unblock, so can't discuss in the RfC without using sockpuppet accounts anyway. <u>Oh and they haven't said anything here either.</u> Thoughts? <small>{{ping|Usedtobecool}} courtesy ping.</small> [[User:Fork99|Fork99]] ([[User talk:Fork99|talk]]) 20:28, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
:If we're talking about the one article, I'd put my money on Nepalese Civil War over the Nepali Civil War. {{Ping|Yue}}, your link says it's google books ngram, but your comment said "books or articles". Care to clarify?

== Request to review Wikipedia page ==

Dear contributors and editors of the WikiProject Nepal page,

Over the last several weeks I have been editing a page on Wikipedia [Suicide in Nepal] as part of my coursework. I was wondering if you would be able to review the page and give me feedback so I can improve the page. Please let me know if you need any more information from my side. I would highly appretiate any feedback or comments as I am a new editor here. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thank you

PR [[User:PRagyaa2023|PRagyaa2023]] ([[User talk:PRagyaa2023|talk]]) 03:04, 7 December 2023 (UTC)

: I wish you had come sooner, [[User:PRagyaa2023|PRagyaa2023]]. There appear to be some good additions. But most of it suffers from [[WP:SCOPE]] and [[WP:SYNTH]] issues. Again, first impressions. I will make some edits on the article. Check them out and review edit summaries. '''[[User:Usedtobecool|Usedtobecool]]'''&nbsp;[[User talk:Usedtobecool|☎️]] 05:16, 7 December 2023 (UTC)

== [[Momo (food)]] ==

There's been a continuing argument on {{slink|Talk:Momo_(food)#Plural_of_Momo}} over which plural form of "momo" in English should be used in the article. [[wikt:momo]] has had similar issues. I would appreciate input from anyone who is able to make constructive contributions based on reliable sources, rather than screaming at me. I'd also appreciate any explanation of why this seems so contentious, if anyone happens to have any insight into that. [[User:Apocheir|Apocheir]] ([[User talk:Apocheir|talk]]) 01:14, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
:I've never seen momos referred to as anything but "momos". No menu or review I've read has used "momo" as the plural.
:It's no different from how English handles some Italian words. Italian ''panino''/''panini'' ⇒ English "panini"/"paninis". Likewise, ''biscotto''/''biscotti'' ⇒ "biscotti"/"biscottis". Maybe to some people this is controversial, but it's life. And it isn't a matter of English linguist imperialism. When other languages borrow nouns, they also mostly apply their own plurals. My favorites are Arabic borrowings from French and English, to which native internal structural changes are applied: "bank"/"banks" ⇒ ''bank''/''bun��k'', "film"/"films" ⇒ ''film''/''aflām''. Italian, conversely, doesn't add anything at all: ''film''/''film''. Nope, neither ''filmi'' nor ''films''. Maybe that's how they handle these arguments: they throw up their hands and say "Forget it, we're doing it neither way."

==Tab Header Mobile Accessibility==
The {{tlu|Wikipedia:WikiProject Nepal/Tab header}} template that is used to put all of the contents of this page in a box results in mobile accessibility issues. Specifically, it hides all of the contents of the talk page for mobile users, unless they click the "Learn more about this page" button, which is normally used to hide stuff about what WikiProjects a page belongs to that appear at the top of a talk page, but not the talk page discussions themselves. Please fix this template, or remove the use of it altogether; please recall that [https://stats.wikimedia.org/#/en.wikipedia.org/reading/total-page-views/normal|bar|2019-02-01~2024-04-01|access~desktop*mobile-app*mobile-web|monthly more English Wikipedia page views occur on mobile than on desktop browsers], and this has consistently been the case for close to four years now.

== On the [[Janata Dal (Samajbadi Prajatantrik)]] party— does it even exist? ==

I have opened a discussion at {{slink|Talk:Janata Dal (Samajbadi Prajatantrik)|
Is this a real party?}} that could use input from members of this WikiProject. Specifically, I am trying to locate evidence that a party even exists whose [[WP:COMMONNAME]] is [[Janata Dal (Samajbadi Prajatantrik)]]. The page [[Keshar Jung Rayamajhi]] also mentions this party, but the single source provided failed verification, as I mention at the talk page discussion above. If people have evidence that a party exists by this name, please provide it here or at the discussion above. Otherwise, please provide any thoughts you have on how this happened— is it a hoax?

== Highway System of Nepal ==

Hi, I want to Inform to this project members that the Highway numbers in Nepal is corrected recently and now there are 80 National Highway in Nepal. Previously there were only 20 National Highways in Nepal and all Highways had Nepali names but recently added 60 new Highway have no names so I would like to request you to move Highway names to it's number e.g. [[Mahendra Highway]] to [[National Highway 1 (Nepal)]] so that we can create articles for the new Highways or you can suggest what to do.

== [[WP:DCWC|Developing Countries WikiContest]] ==

Starting this July, we will see a new contest on the scene - the Developing Countries WikiContest ([[WP:DCWC]])! Think of it as a [[WP:CUP|WikiCup]] but only for articles and media on developing countries. 

Competitors may submit [[WP:GA|GA]]s, [[WP:GT|GT]]s, [[WP:FA|FA]]s, [[WP:FT|FT]]s, [[WP:FL|FL]]s, [[WP:FP|FP]]s, and [[WP:DYK|DYK]] and [[WP:ITN|ITN]] entries from/on developing countries to gain points and proceed to further rounds. Points are also awarded to those who review GAs, FAs and FLs.

Nepal is listed as a least-developed country for the purposes of this contest, which means Nepal-related submissions to the contest will get a multiplier in points. I encourage everyone here to sign up and compete with editors from around the world to create high-quality content! 

Append your name to the [[WP:2024 Developing Countries WikiContest/Signups|DCWC signup page]] today!
