To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.
Please remember to:
- Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the
button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp. - Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
Sincerely, P.I. Ellsworth , ed. put'r there 02:04, 8 November 2022 (UTC) (Leave me a message)

Orphaned non-free image File:Punjab Police logo with titles.png edit
Thanks for uploading File:Punjab Police logo with titles.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:23, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
Introduction to contentious topics edit
You have recently edited a page related to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief 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.

- Please don't change these articles back. It is a common misconception that mixes up the various paramilitary forces. Most of them are grouped as part of the Civil Armed Forces under the Interior Ministry. The National Guard is a military reserve force under the Army and the Ministry of Defence. Please note that the Rangers are two organisations because they each have their own commander. It's the same with the four Frontier Corps. Each has a commander a separate HQ. Please discuss such drastic changes before doing them. Gedrose (talk) 21:04, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
April 2024 edit
Please do not move a page to a title that is harder to follow, or move it unilaterally against naming conventions or consensus, as you did to Civil Armed Forces. This includes making page moves while a discussion remains underway. We have some guidelines to help with deciding what title is best for a subject. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Thank you. Wikibear47 (talk) 01:55, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
@Wikibear47: that is neither the correct name and it is not the logo for such an organization.--Cheel (talk) 19:27, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
- When logo is not available federal government logo is used. If you think that its not the correct name than you should present some sources to support your claim. Wikibear47 (talk) 21:20, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
