Talk:Bangalore Linux User Group

message: This page may need some amount of cleanup. It does not mention anything about how the BLUG was a registered not-for-profit organisation and how the society was disbanded and created into one without any society whatsoever.
It doesn't mention any names as to who were the people involved in the BLUG and how they contributed.
I think this article is not entirely neutral.
:Tazo, please tag your comments with your name. This article is as neutral as the Linux India article. It offers no opinions, and reports only verifiable facts. If you believe that this article (as well as the Linux India article) need some addition of "facts", by all means go ahead and add them. Just be prepared to defend them, and be prepared to deal with other facts, if they are revealed. And be careful about adding POV "facts". Achitnis 15:00, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Links/Verification for the 4th Para 

message: Recently this article was proposed for deletion because its notability wasn't established clearly enough. I've checked and I believe that this organization does satisfy requirements at WP:CORP.
In 2002 the organization hosted the Linux Bangalore event which was sponsored by Hewlett Packard and had thousands of participants.
In 2003 the Times of India had an article about Linux being used in Indian businesses and quoted a member of BLUG.
In 2007, Computer Reseller News had a cover story regarding the value of open source software and quoted a BLUG member.
These are just a handful of examples of BLUG being covered by mainstream news sources both inside and outside of India, due to their promotion of Linux and involvement with events meant to promote Linux. -- Atamachat 18:57, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Notability 

message: Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted.
Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.
Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

*:Triggered by \bwikicities\.com\b on the global blacklist
If you would like me to provide more information on the talk page, contact User:Cyberpower678 and ask him to program me with more info.
From your friendly hard working bot.—cyberbot II NotifyOnline 17:04, 8 December 2013 (UTC)
