Welcome! edit

Hello, Brian89014, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

ARBIPA sanctions alert edit

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Average human height by country, you may be blocked from editing. The initial warning is a level 3 warning due to the numerous and repeated attempts at vandalizing this page. Transcendence (talk) 23:17, 22 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, you may be blocked from editing. SuperGoose007 (Honk!) 23:43, 22 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at Vine (service), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. HaeB (talk) 08:18, 23 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Unsourced Info edit

June 2020 edit

  Hi Brian89014! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. — MarkH21talk 13:41, 28 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Removal of sources based on your own thoughts edit

Don't remove TASS from India-China skirmishes based on your own personal evaluation. See WP:OR and WP:CON. Aman Kumar Goel (Talk) 06:56, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Please source correct information from legitimate credited media Brian89014 (talk) 06:58, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

TASS is a more than 100 years old Russian state based media. It is necessary to have their views given Russia is a major observer of this conflict. Aman Kumar Goel (Talk) 07:13, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

February 2021 edit

  Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to 2020 China–India skirmishes. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use your sandbox. Thank you. MBlaze Lightning (talk) 21:32, 21 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
