Welcome

Hello, Akhileshsharma, and welcome to Wikipedia! I am Deepu Joseph. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk or ask me on my talk page.
• Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~).
• Provide an Edit summary
• Take a look at Consensus of standards. It is always wise to read the talk page of an existing article before making major changes on it. Even then, I typically ask if anyone minds that I make a change. Very often they do! ;-)
• Create a User page

Again, welcome! And if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask - Just click here to leave me a message.

May I reiterate, Akilesh, that no commericla links (meaning links to sites containg advertisements or sites made solely for making profit) are allowed on wikipedia. -- thunderboltz^{a.k.a.Deepu_Joseph |TALK} 05:37, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Please stop

1. Please stop adding the unnecessary and redundant "Tourism" section to India. This is a featured article, and has to follow certain standards. Don't continuously add this redundant section.

2. Please stop spamming articles with commercial links. You already have been warned about that, so if you add commercial link spam again, you will be banned from editing.

Thanks. --Ragib 05:41, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
