: "SV:SVProject infoboxes" seems like overkill. What would be the problem with "SV:Project infoboxes" or "SVproject:Infoboxes"? As for "WikiProject" sounding like a Wikipedia title, I don't have an issue with that. Sarkarverse is a wikipedia, and its software is wiki software. We have a whole area of Sarkarverse that is prefixed with "MediaWiki". So I don't think that any confusion arises with an area called "WikiProject". But if you feel otherwise, then use "SVproject" or "SV:Project ". --[[User:Abhidevananda|Abhidevananda]] ([[User talk:Abhidevananda|talk]]) 06:46, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

::* Namaskar, Acarya Ji, thanks once again for your reply. Let me directly tell you right now, I am more and mainly interested to host the "Infobox project". I am giving you few rationales: I am seeing a) we already have Infobox book, which is a duplicate of Infobox Literary works. b) we have infobox website, I am not sure about its position, should it be "organization". That may need a discussion (please do not delete these templates now, as these may break few articles, I am tracking these. Don't answer these questions here too, as there are many more such questions, we'll discuss all later), there are more such queries and discussions. Of course we may discuss here, but, <u>I feel</u> it would be  better if we start the infobox project, as infobox has become a task of high priority. And for that I need to know where actually should I start this work. --<span style="background:orange;border:orange ridge">[[User:Tito Dutta|Tito]]</span><span style="color:blue;background:white;otit;border-bottom-style:ridge;">☸</span><span style="background:#57C738;border:green ridge">[[User talk:Tito Dutta|Dutta]]</span> 06:55, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

: Fine. Start the project. Call it "SVproject:Infoboxes" or "WikiProject:Infoboxes" or just "Project:Infoboxes". Any of those three should work okay over the long term. As for existing infoboxes, I am not tampering with them. They may remain. As I said, I'm not overly worried about a little bit of inconsistency in respect to infoboxes as long as all of the infoboxes relating to the mainspace contain an SVmap. Regarding websites, the SVmap/infobox would be determined by the nature of the site, specifically, whether it is the website of a person or a foundation (organization). In most cases, the website would simply be a reference (possibly also included in the infobox) in an article on the person or foundation. But, if there is a need for a separate article on the subject of the website itself, then the infobox would be derived from the nature of the website's association (with a person or with a foundation). --[[User:Abhidevananda|Abhidevananda]] ([[User talk:Abhidevananda|talk]]) 07:08, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
:* Namaskar, thanks for your suggestion. But none of these is possible at this moment. Anything including a colon (i.e. ''':''') will require a new namespeace, for example [[Project:Infoboxes]]. Please see [[:mw:Manual:Using custom namespaces]]. Currently only these are possible: [[Sarkarverse:SVproject Infoboxes]] etc. --<span style="background:orange;border:orange ridge">[[User:Tito Dutta|Tito]]</span><span style="color:blue;background:white;otit;border-bottom-style:ridge;">☸</span><span style="background:#57C738;border:green ridge">[[User talk:Tito Dutta|Dutta]]</span> 07:48, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
::: As I said, "SV:SVproject" is overkill (i.e. redundant). Better then to have "SV:Project" or "SV:WikiProject" or "SV:Infobox". --[[User:Abhidevananda|Abhidevananda]] ([[User talk:Abhidevananda|talk]]) 07:59, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

== Protection against system installed adwares ==
Here at ''Swatantra'' after using several computers, laptops, now I am seeing (what I felt previously as well), we are lacking protection against user-system adwares. Sites like Wikipedia have protection against it. Sarkarverse, however is filled with ads in an affected system. --<span style="background:orange;border:orange ridge">[[User:Tito Dutta|Tito]]</span><span style="color:blue;background:white;otit;border-bottom-style:ridge;">☸</span><span style="background:#57C738;border:green ridge">[[User talk:Tito Dutta|Dutta]]</span> 09:26, 19 December 2014 (UTC) (from seminar laptop)
== Skin test ==
As MW has seeral by default skins, we need to check main page and other two three important pages' appearance in other skins. --<span style="background:orange;border:orange ridge">[[User:Tito Dutta|Tito]]</span><span style="color:blue;background:white;otit;border-bottom-style:ridge;">☸</span><span style="background:#57C738;border:green ridge">[[User talk:Tito Dutta|Dutta]]</span> 15:24, 24 December 2014 (UTC)

== Footer and more ==
* [[Sarkarverse:General disclaimer]] might have some good scope to add general disclaimers.
* At footer (any page), [[Sarkarverse:Privacy policy]] may be revisited also.
* Possibly we can remove the "MediaWiki developer" link?
* A "Copyright" of content of this website should be a good information for the readers that how to use content of the website. --<span style="background:orange;border:orange ridge">[[User:Tito Dutta|Tito]]</span><span style="color:blue;background:white;otit;border-bottom-style:ridge;">☸</span><span style="background:#57C738;border:green ridge">[[User talk:Tito Dutta|Dutta]]</span> 21:44, 4 June 2020 (BST)
:: All good points to be considered. The General Disclaimer and Privacy Policy links are not very helpful as they stand. Regarding the MediaWiki developer link, I don't have any problem with it. The underlying software was developed by MediaWiki; so I think it only courteous to leave it there. As to copyright, I'm not sure what more needs or should be done. --[[User:Abhidevananda|Abhidevananda]] ([[User talk:Abhidevananda|talk]]) 22:06, 5 June 2020 (BST)
