Hello, Amankhokhar, and thank you for your contributions!
I wanted to let you know it seems an article you worked on, Mehmadpur, Karnal, India, is copied from another Wikipedia page, Mehmadpur, Karnal. It's fine to do this as long as you provide the following information in the edit summary:
- a link to the article you copied from
- the date you copied it
You can do this now by editing the page, making any minor edit to the article, and adding the above information into the edit summary.
If you're still not sure how to fix the problem, please leave a message at the help desk. It's possible that I made a mistake, so feel free to remove the tag I placed on the article.
Thanks again for helping build the free encyclopedia! MadmanBot (talk) 18:13, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours to the page Mehmadpur, Karnal, India has an edit summary that appears to be inaccurate or inappropriate. Please use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did, and feel free to use the sandbox for any tests you may want to do. Thank you.
What gives here? You started the original Mehmadpur, Karnal page, but others have edited it since and you can't just start another page, copy the contents over and claim it as all your own work.
The right thing to do is to wp:MOVE the page, which preserves the edit history. 220 of Borg 21:10, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Mehmadpur, Karnal, India. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Mehmadpur, Karnal. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Mehmadpur, Karnal – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Imzadi 1979 → 02:29, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
