Tips

• Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
• It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
• If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
• Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
• When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
• If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
• Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 22:54, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

For your information

@Shinakho

Hi, WP has separate articles like Ottoman Imperial Harem, Odalisque etc. on elite Harem slavery in Ottoman times. Where as the Avret Esir Pazarları is about "Short description: Non-elite-commoner-women slavery in Ottoman times". I request and hope to keep this point in mind while editing the article Avret Esir Pazarları. Wish you happy editing Bookku (talk) 04:20, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

Bengalis

Instead of repeatedly undoing edits, please take your concerns about the religious figures to the talk page. Also keep in mind that there are sources which state a variety of figures for Bengalis' religions, with some even saying that there may be up to 25 million Hindus living in Bangladesh alone[1][2], while others, like the one that you cite, also state that there are 200 million Bengali Muslims. Harshalrach (talk) 07:37, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

These sources are outdated since bangladesh has done its census last year which states only 7% is hindu which is 13 million and none of the 2011 census say india has 90 million bengali hindus west bengal only has 55 million if you bothered to check the references and some in assam and tripura which totals to 80 million not 90 million Shinakho (talk) 07:40, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

The 2011 census of India was conducted 12 years ago, while the Bangladesh census was conducted only 1 year ago. The former is clearly more dated than the latter, suggesting that the Hindu population would have grown to more than 80 million. Also, please refrain from edit-warring on the page, as you have repeatedly reverted edits without discussing on talk pages. Harshalrach (talk) 07:45, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

Wait until the indian census is fone to give accurate population figures then the fact is even in these states the tfr is low there is no way it jumped to 90 to 100 million your basing these of your own estimation not referenced data and india is conducting its own census in this year and may carry to next year but wikipedia is about facts not your own estimations. Shinakho (talk) 07:53, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

Please provide any other evidence, besides a single excerpt from an author from 2013, that there are 200 million Bengali Muslims Harshalrach (talk) 07:54, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

150 million is from bamgladesh 2022 census while assam has 14 million muslim population according to the 2011 census in india while west bengal has 24 million from 2011 census and pakistan has over 1 to 2 million ethnic bengalis Shinakho (talk) 08:01, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

Assam's Muslim population is not 14 million. It was 9 million in 2011, many of whom are actually Urdu and Assamese speaking Muslims rather than Bengalis. Harshalrach (talk) 08:16, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

In assam the population is to mixed assams governing party in the latest census was planning to make seperate Catergories between these ethnic groupsike miyas (bengali muslims) and assamese muslims Shinakho (talk) 08:35, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

Please note, I am not only talking about India. There are Hindus in Bangladesh, too. 13 million, to be exact. Harshalrach (talk) 07:57, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

I gave figures from both countries for both india and bangladesh Shinakho (talk) 08:02, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

Warning

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.Serralia (talk) 20:37, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Serralia (talk) 05:01, 17 June 2023 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

July 2023

You have been blocked from editing from certain pages (Rape in Afghanistan) for a period of 1 week for edit-warring at Rape in Afghanistan with no attempt to use talkpage to resolve the dispute. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text at the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Abecedare (talk) 21:00, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

• I just noticed that you and 1Firang have also been edit-warring at Stoning in Islam. I am not extending the above block to that article for the moment but note that if the edit-warring and disruption resumes or spreads to other venues, the block may be widened or other sanctions applied. Use the article talkpages or other prescribed means to resolve the dispute. Abecedare (talk) 21:14, 1 July 2023 (UTC)
