Hoi,<br>In the Netherlands we had at one time someone who got some domains in order to prevent cyber-squaters to get the domain. There were people who suggested that the man himself was a cyber squatter as well.. All it took was the offer of the money spend to be paid back to affect the domain transfer .... It was asked nicely, it was offered nicely and that did the trick... Important was that after the fact it was acknowledged publicly that the gentleman was thanked for the service..<br>
Thanks,<br> GerardM<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2010/1/18 Naveen Francis <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:naveenpf@gmail.com">naveenpf@gmail.com</a>></span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

</div>They have a published dispute resolution policy:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.registry.in/.IN%20Domain%20Name%20Dispute%20Resolution%20Policy%20%28INDRP%29" target="_blank">http://www.registry.in/.IN%20Domain%20Name%20Dispute%20Resolution%20Policy%20(INDRP)</a><br>
<br>
The relevant clauses are 4 & 6, possibly 7. Is Wikipedia registered as<br>
a trademark in India? Reading clause 4, I'm not sure anyone except the<br>
holder of a trademark will be able to challenge a registration. Have a<br>
look at the decisions they've put up on the website. They complainant<br>
seems to have an Indian trademark or to have applied for one in most cases:<br>
